Nationwide we remember and honour with a minute of silence at 20.00 . it s an official event here in the Netherlands and there are speeches, flowers, the King and government members are present in Amsterdam etc.<br />Lately it is not just about WW2 but about all that died during conflict/ war. Tomorrow on the 5th we celebrate that we were liberated from Hitler s army by US/Canadian and British soldiers. We celebrate our freedom.<br />This year I will take a moment to remember those you wrote about.<br />May we never forget that violence will take us nowhere<br />Annemiekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02891179217078987717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27429478.post-70753364754392149452016-05-04T08:24:52.124-04:002016-05-04T08:24:52.124-04:00I wish we could say that we have learned during th...I wish we could say that we have learned during those 44 years, but senseless, tragic violence is still around us.

We started to just take them as every day occurrences...and then this happened. It is terribly sad that we don't remember this and that the media doesn't even remark on it.suzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13432352442859238887noreply@blogger.com
