Friedrich,

I understand what you are saying, Friedrich, but I see no alternative to what was done. It may have been disheartening to those in the camps, but what else could the Allies do? The inmates had to have known that those huge numbers of bombers were doing something to get them free, other than just flying over.

I acknowledge that there was anti-semitism in all countries and also understand that it was not just Jews who were killed in the systematic manner proscribed by the Nazis. Just look at the voyage of the SS St. Louis in 1939. That was a crime of great proportion.

I am a Southerner and outside people have an automatic idea that Klan is prevalent in this area. They would be wrong. Personally, I don't antagonize in any way God's chosen people, the Sons of Isaac, for religous reasons and I am one those evil southern Protestants who are supposed to persecute them.
