Holocost Rememberance Day

The Holocaust was a very sad time in the history of the world. As I see it, the Holocaust was completely unnecessary, however, I cannot help but see many important lessons that should be taken away from this. First, we should never discriminate against anyone who is different than us, because the thought of doing that to anyone is hypocritical. Because to those whom we are discriminating against, we are the outsiders, we are the ones who are different. But we really aren't any different, we are all humans, and that makes us as similar as water from the Atlantic compared to water from the Pacific, the water came from different places but its still water, that is the second lesson we must learn from this. The third and final lesson is that violence will never be the ultimate solution to anything. Because, chances are, when you begin massacring other people, you will eventually be overpowered by some other forces, and if nobody relents, that will be a very scary situation, possibly ending our race. My thoughts on the Holocaust is this, that it was a terrible time in history, but we neither deny that happened, nor downgrade its seriousness, and we must learn from our mistakes.
