Hey France, when Elie Wiesel says this war is your fault, it's time for you to start feeling contrition.

Just a related token....everyone should read the book Night by the above author. A hellva book and shouldnt take too long for most adults to read.

Night is an intense book. The scene he describes about the children hanged in concentration camps who are too light to break theirown necks is an incredible story. What I dont like about Laurate Wiesel is that he still preaches hate. In a recent speech in NYC, he argued that hating the Germans for Nazi Deutchland is still morally legitimate. I cant buy that line of thinking. So, I dont see Wiesel as a moral compass.
