This is an amazing first person account. The short take illuminates more than a thousand pages just like the Eichmann trial taught all Israel what the Nazis did and how they did it. Our friend Yosef can’t take it. He tries to distance himself by intellectualizing.
Thank you for posting this. We need all of them.

Powerful and important accounts. Yehuda’s courage is jawdropping and the role of serendipity in his survival is mindboggling. Thank you Nathan.

The introduction provided examples of mass murder, or genocide. It was not intended as a complete list. Additional examples were just that, additional examples, and do not detract from the point. Marty, the Holodomor is mentioned in the essay Music: 3 Rules of Discipline & 8 Rules of Self-Promotion (http://www.quantumcannibals.com/music/) where I discuss how “progressive” musicians sung the praises of the Soviet Union while ignoring the horrors inflicted by Stalin.

In reply to Yosef. Holocaust Remembrance Day commemorates the Warsaw Ghetto uprising. It is, therefore, a particularly Jewish remembrance. But by all means, Yosef, do detract from the real reason.

In reply to Yosef. The Cambodians were victims of their own people. That separates them from other genocides.

Also don’t forget the Circassians in the 1860s, the Assyrian Christians and some Greeks at the same time as the Armenians during 1915-20, the Roma (Gypsies) and some Slavs at the same time as the Jews during the Holocaust, the Cambodians, the Bosnians, the Darfuris, etc.
