rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Super_Jerome - Similar to many computer buyers, my printer was included in a package deal--boy was that a big mistake.

My thoughts on the Holocaust

Fri, 9 Jun 2000 19:14:42 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Super_Jerome - The idea of the Holocaust is almost too hard to believe. It shocks me that a group of people could just decide to kill 12,000,000 people just because they didn't like them. The Nazis seemed to think that the Jews, Catholics, Gypsies, or whomever they...
