    It seems to have been overlooked that it isn't a matter of who
"we" honor. Rather it's the enormous symbolism attached to the
one-time state visit of the President of the United States... and
especially the one who is Mr. Symbolisms himself! Thus the matter of
whether there happen to be a "few" (47) SS-men being "blessed" by his
gesture with a wreath on behalf of all of us, isn't as trivial as the
phrase "who we honor..." makes it sound.
