I guess I'd second @saddlesores (and without getting into the politics of the matter): what do you hope to accomplish with this in America?
It is not as if the issue is unknown here, NPR even ran a piece on it this morning. With so many issues affecting people all over the world, who are still suffering today, what sort of support/solution do you hope to drum up for people who were affected 70+ years ago?
