  5. May the Lord have mercy on all the people that lost their lives there. May this never happen again, but it just might if we are not vigilant. There are many out there who would like to slaughter those that are not of their beliefs.

    If we can only just destroy places like this. However, I guess they should be preserved as a reminder for us people of the horrors of the Second World War. As we are constantly reminded, we have to learn from history so that we will not commit the same errors that our forebears did.
