I misspoke: Most of the Jewish concentration camp survivors didn't want to go back to most of the eastern European countries they were deported from, e.g.; Germany, Poland, Romania, Hungary -- some did return to France and Northern Europe.

Who cares really ...

Afghanistan, Iraq Wars Killed 132,000 Civilians, Report Says By Spencer Ackerman 06.29.11 At least 132,000 civilians have died from 10 years of war in Iraq and Afghanistan, according to a new study by Brown university. And that’s a conservative estimate. No one can say with certainty how many civilians have died in these wars. But researchers at Brown’s Watson Institute for International Studies found that between 12,000 and 14,000 of them perished in Afghanistan — the most recent of which came from Tuesday’s audacious insurgent attack on Kabul’s most famous hotel. Another 120,000 died in Iraq. An estimated 35,000 more lost their lives in Pakistan, where the United States is fighting a shadow war against terror groups and militants. (Although the report says it can’t “disaggregate civilian from combatant death” there, which is kind of a big deal.) http://www.wired.com/2011/06/afghani...s-report-says/

The Death Toll in Darfur, Kosovo August 14, 2007 In my articles, I tend to use “several hundred thousand” as the death toll, because any particular number suggests a level of certainty that we will never obtain. Is it possible that the toll is 200,000? Absolutely. Is it possible that it’s more than 400,000? Absolutely. In Kosovo, there were estimates of 100,000 dead; the actual toll turned out to be less than 1,000.

People die in wars ... 30 more "Gazan civilians" have died in the last few days because of Hamas' refusal to cease fire. I guess they want more casualties -- there is no negotiating with Hamas they just proved that ... again.

This is really about internal Palestinian power plays between Hamas and the PA at this point. It has become rather obvious if you don't get trapped in the media speak and the politicians' manipulation of the situation.
