Holocaust survivor perishes as the result of another war

[abaris]

As they mentioned over on AD, let's hope Putin is remembered as the modern day Hitler.

The word "Hitler" is so easily thrown around these days. Putin is a ruthless autocrat, but he's no Hitler. Hitler planned the industrial genocide of people, just because they were born into a certain group of people. Jews, or Sinti and Roma. Putin is a war criminal, but so far, there are no indications of taking the same path.

Hitler was a singularity. Not because of the numbers that fell victim to his regime. But because, his regime put all the technological and logistical ressources of an industrial country to work towards genocide.

It's sad, that a Holocaust survivor died, but they're just one in thousands, who had to die in a needless war so far.
