What do you think about this woman?

[Entrails Konfetti]

Eva Moses Kor was a victim of the Holocaust.
She had a twin sister, Miriam-- who had expiriments done on her by Dr.Mengele. Eva was the control in the expiriment. After the Holocaust, her sister died many years later after being injected with whatever it was.

Eva lived in anger and fear for most of her adult life, then she decided to forgive Dr.Mengele and the Nazis, inorder to get the monkey of her back, so she wouldn't have to live in fear anymore. This forgiveness wasn't to say the Holocaust never happened or to totally forget about it, matter afact Eva runs a Holocaust museaum in Terre Haut Indiana; C.A.N.D.L.E.S

Many of the survivors were upset with her notion of forgivness.

I learned about her from the documentary Forgiving Dr.Mengele.

Should she have forgiven the Nazis, afterall her attitude towards life isn't fearful and bitter anymore.

I think that though what the nazis did was terrible, it is important that their victims can find it in their hearts to forgive. I wouldn't but if someone does I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing. so long as they don't say what was done is ok.

Its really up to the victims how they decide to feel on this subject.

Forgiveness gives a sense of closure to some people, so forgiving, but not forgetting, is something that is admirable from someone who suffered so much, and yet still has it in their heart to forgive those who wronged them.

One things for certain though, the people who commited these crimes against humanity deserve no forgiveness.

By forgiving them, she shows she is better and stronger than them. What they did was disgusting, but the fact that she is able to forgive them is amazing, especially with what she went through. Shes not belittling the Holocaust or anything, she just wants to consider them defeated once and for all.

I saw that documentary...

I agree with you. I don't know if I'd be able to forgive someone like that so whenever I hear of anyone doing that I always admire them for that. It's I'm sure hard to do. But yea that is a good way of showing they're defeated. Never really thought about it that way but that's a good point.
