German reunification

Dear Mrs. Knobloch,
it last.
Yes, 61 years ago Nazis killed many Jews. Yes, more than half a century, the German people have mostly looked away, when millions of Jews were killed.
This is the past.
We have today in 2009, today we celebrate the year of our German reunification, his 20th Jubilee has. And why do we celebrate? Because we have a right to challenge the unity of our country's past, have lived in did not even many of us. We have to accept a right to what was then, and not to forget, but to celebrate other nice things and not wallowing us in our original sin and wallow and whine about how bad we are.
It's inexcusable what was done before. Just as it is unforgivable what is happening between Israel and the Palestinians. People are killed, they are done to violence, they are driven from their homes, this is unforgivable.
And yet we celebrate today the day of our German German unity and pride.
Thank you, your
C.
