https://isgap.org/flashpoint/memory-the-jewish-intellectual-and-cartesian-cogito-in-amerys-at-the-minds-limits/

Universal lessons of the Holocaust
https://isgap.org/post/2013/04/universal-lessons-of-the-holocaust/
When writing on the Holocaust, I am reminded of the early teachings of my parents – the profundity and pain of which I realized only years later – that there are things in Jewish history – in human history – too terrible to be believed, but not too terrible to have happened.
