Topic: Elie Wiesel
That episode kind of hit me in a sort of way that I didn't know that people could be that cruel. For them to go day after day killing innocent people who did absolutely nothing to deserve this. What sticks in my mind so clearly is the shoes, and the clothes of the children. How can they just toss a child into the air and use it for targeting practice. I was surprised that Elie said that he could actually feel the presence of all the women and children around him. The photos of the mangled bodies still gets me. How you could see their bones, and yet none of the soldiers did anything. Aren't soldiers put in place to help the people? My biggest question is: Why didn't we step in soon than what we did? And why didn't any one stick up for what was right? Die or die trying?
