I believe the situation was complex and there were great grievances on both sides. I also think it does a lot of potential damage to rake over the wrongs, injustices and violence, instead of looking forward with renewed hope. The only thing to be gained by remembering what happened is to learn from the past, and to honour the efforts made by any of the protagonists to heal the rifts and create (and maintain) a new Peace.

I was mainly moved to start this thread by looking at the dreadful remarks by ignorant and rather childish people on various sites which express hate-filled and vengeful opinions ('Hell is too good for him', 'Hope it was a very painful death' etc). These could in fact rekindle the anger and resurrect feelings which are better laid to rest.
