32.  its the opposite i honour the memory by speaking out loudly
i speak out loudly in defense of the weak the downtrodden and oppressed regardless of race colour or creed.
i cant ignore something that is my very being, my upbringing, its in my genes.
My greatgrandfather fought in WWI and it was the stories he told me as a child that made me a pacifist.

My father fought in WWII and it was the stories he told me as a child that made me hate fascism with every molecule in my body.

If you read my posts you should know that my scorn for the official "pretty" history of the UK as it relates to other peoples is LIMITLESS.
there are allot of "dark forces" that played allot of cynical and disgusting "games" during and after WWII and the UK "powers that be" where among the darkest.
I dont bring up the holocaust and its effects on the jewish people in every post i make on the issue of israel and i dont think i should as it would only increases tension.I think i would also be seen as crass if i did,especially because from where i view things it only emphasises my point it doesnt detract from it.
