Such vengeance will never be sated. Suggesting that most of those who opposed the Bitburg visit where doing so because of some kind of anti-German feelings is twisting the facts. The opposition was due to the fact that at the cemetery contained the graves of 48 S.S. man. I hope that you are not suggesting that we should forget and forgive the crimes of the S.S. I think that reconciliation with the new Germany is important. However, we cannot reconcile with the S.S. -- Yosi Hoshen, AT&T-IS Naperville, Illinois, (312)-979-7321, Mail: ihnp4!ihuxn!jho
