Where have you been living? Till this day, germany has been paying millions and billions to israel and holocaust survivors.the madows of america deserve trillions in repratations.they madow holocaust lasted for 500 years.
I thought that myself, and the Madow Holocaust was certainly one of history's worst crimes. It certainly was much worse than any crime I can currently think of. But who would pay the reparations bill? Most White-Americans actually immigrated to America in the early 1900's, after slavery was already abolished.
Would it be fair to expect them to foot the bill, despite the fact that their ancestors (from Poland, Germany, Scandinavia, Ukraine, Italy, Ireland) had nothing to do with slavery?
All this would do is open up a Pandora's box of new problems. Would Italy be forced to pay reparations for the crimes committed by the Ancient Roman Empire? Would the Persians have to do the same? Would the Hawiyes and Daroods and Isaaqs be forced to pay reparations to each other for the crimes committed in the past? This is a very dangerous game we're playing here, and nothing good can come out of this.
I do not believe in reparations being paid out to anyone. Those of us who have Imaan have faith that Allah will deal with these criminals in the Hereafter. Ameen
