80 million people died in
World War II.
The winners proudly celebrate the anniversary of their
victories. And then they bow their heads and place their crowns on the graves
of their soldiers.
But unworthy, ashamed that it is for all of us to
leave these 80 million war victims forgotten.
We must keep them in our memory and give expression to
this commemoration.
We owe it to the memory of the victims, to ourselves,
to the 800 million potential victims who live between us but can be instantly
swept away by a new whirlwind of the history.
When and how should we pay tribute to these 80
million?
It would be honorable if this day would follow Victory
Day, so it could be May 10.
As for the manner of this commemoration: it would be
better if it will be organized by citizens, schools, public organizations,
without politicians, without soldiers, without prayers.
