After an arduous journey during which many of them perished from exposure to the elements

and thirst, the exhausted group of men, women and children arrived at their destination. Uniformed guards march them through the barbed wire to a station where each was numbered on their forearm. When mothers protested being forcibly separated from their screaming children, some of them infants, they are assured the separation is just "temporary". Most would never again see their babies in this world.

Germany? Auschwitz? Treblinka?

"Nein!"

This is occurring in "the land of the free and the home of the brave"----today----using our tax dollars---in our name.

And, "the whole world's watching".
