[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's one thing to disagree with Israel's response, I do disagree. It's totally another level of mindfu$$ to acknowledge that Osama Bin Laden made sense, I mean really??? The horrors of 9/11 will forever live with me, the first responders, NYPD and so many families destroyed by that heinous act. I may not remember what I did yesterday but I remember every single thing about the day of 9/11, every.single.thing. This is the problem with getting your information from social media, typically it has no context, no history to educate you fully. Just soundbites to get more clicks.[/quote]

Same, but we were there.  The young adults of today were not, or were babies.

just like the young adluts today have no real touch to the Holocaust and as such don't understand why Israel is considered such a valued partner.

This is why education and history (cough for all of the STEM adherants who say humanities have no place in colleges cough) is so important.[/quote]

There's something more to it. Is the Holocaust not taught as extensively as it was in the past? Even Gen-Xers, Millenials, born in the 70s to 80s are very familiar with Holocaust despite having no direct connection to it and being more distant from it than current Gen Y/Z are from 9/11, but when I grew up, there was extensive teaching of the Holocaust in a way that it haunted me.[/quote]

The Holocaust part is just because there are so few survivors left.  It's not limited to the Holocaust it's also WW2 and the Depression while WW1 has completely been forgotten about.  Gen X and early millennials remember because of their grandparents.  Once something gets 3-4 generations removed it stops seeming relatable.[/quote]
