I can't believe the pictures I see, the news I hear. Last year when the war started I had moments when I thought, "This must be what it felt like to live in Germany in 1939."

Now I think I begin to get an idea of how it felt to live there in 1945, to see the terrible evidence of what had been done by your country--by you.

Such evil. And those soldiers--they could be people I know, students I've taught.

That's not irrelevant...if those MP's had ever learned to empathize with other human beings, they couldn't have done that. At least, as an English teacher too, I HOPE we humanize. But maybe not.
