Many historians attended, and I asked one behind me (queuing for food) whether he’d agreed with that statement. He went nonlinear. “You can’t possibly say something is unique, AND that it must never be repeated. One or the other!!”
He didn’t want to specifically discuss America though. No one did, not even a Canadian journalist I met, specialist on the Middle East. But I can’t help thinking of America’s coming versions of such events I am attending now in Germany. 4/4 #neverAgain #nieWieder
