Historically many genocides have been in the millions. Like wars and famines the lives lost are horrendous. We can excuse only so many things as being "the ways of the world"; but we must also ask ourselves are we willing to see the world become a wanton slaughterhouse where lives are dispatched for the sake of pure greed and power. It has been this way throughout history but now the slaughter has become more indiscriminate than ever and the psychosis of war and genocide only become more deeply entrenched and a palpable disgrace to our humanity.
