For us Jews to blame current day Germans for what their parents or
grandparents did more than fifty years ago rests on the same kind logic as
the Nazis espoused.  I know that if I ever visited Germany or Austria I
would be haunted by the vibrations of what happened there, but I wouldn't
blame German people as a collective matter.
