It brings us to the song from "South Pacific"---"You Have To Be Taught". Amazing how that show can be interpreted (and happily revived after 60 years) in many generations.

I know not the intent of the Auschwitz visits but can understand animosity that might follow it. I do, however, know that the kids in the Gaza area (and I suppose in the West Bank as well) are taught to hate and to, someday, do away with these terrible Israelis---not teaching love or brother (sister)hood at all. I don't hear that from Israeli schooling.

Brings us back once again to that prescient piece of music from some 60 yrs ago---seems like some people are doing just that------"...you have to he taught"
