My husband I have plans to go...maybe this summer. We also are planning a trip to Israel (well, a Mediterranean cruise) and we would see the one in Israel.

The room which was the worst for me was the one with the mounds of human hair (we weren't allowed to take photos). I saw a few people finally break when they passed the room of children's shoes.

If you haven't read it, I posted an editorial (elleng posted it originally in the Jewish Group) titled: A Modest Immigration Proposal: Ban Jews. It is worth the read and speaks to your point about "racial purity", then and now.
