- And what are you? A journalist/editor? Who are you to say what should have
- been included where? If you want the kind of gore you're asking for, just
- check out CNN any half hour. Or have a look at some of the pictures that
- are being sent back by photo/reporter crews that various newspapers are
- sending over to get the truth out (e.g. the Toronto SUN).

- A vacuous argument strengthens nothing ... except perhaps the obvious
- implication that you fall in the same camp as the idiot fanatics that
- still continue to try to convince people that the Holocaust never happened,
- that it was fiction and fabrication by the Jews: Those pictures of heaps
- of bones used to make manure for Auschwitz's commandant's cabbage patch --
- hey! they're all fabrication! Those mass-grave photos found by the
- liberating allies -- they used actors! and so on it goes.
-
- You're a sick person. You might reflect, for a moment, on the value
- of the tolerance this society has -- and at what cost -- to allow your
- type of drivel to be disseminated. Making bets about the true anguish
- of the death and misery we watch each day from the comfort of our living
- rooms can only be the product of a sick mind.
