Hi,

I don't get the point. Because some Gipsys did something horrible/bad, it is okay to exclude all gipsys from remembrance? And the Holocaust is reduced to the murder of Jews? What about the jewish capos? Do they establish an excuse for not remembering all the people murdered?

Sorry, but if Wiesel argues like that, he isn't any better than all the other racists.

The horrible thing of the Holocaust was not only that Jews were killed. It was the killing of all "unwanted" persons and the fixation on Jews only to me seems like a kind of Holocaust-denial.

To me, Wiesels attitude is a slap in the face of all the other victims and someone, who treats those in such a way, lacks of credibility in claiming remembrence of his own victims.
