This was a day of rememberance, so let's not make this another hate thread leading to everyone getting up in arms over what the allies could of should of done. The simple fact is that they didn't bomb these areas and many lost their lives as a result. We don't know why they decided this was the right course of action, but it's clear that the death camps were not high on the priority list.
With the growth of anti-semitism, Prince Harry's little joke, and renewed violence in the middle east, there is plenty more to look at today to fix rather than examining who to blame in the past. They should of done something then and I think Sharon is right, the Jewish people need to depend on themselves in order to survive.
Don't forget what hell on earth was for these people in Auschwitz and the other camps.
