If you want to reply to what someone has written, you push the 'reply'-button (in 'Thunderbird') and write something. But this thread is now divided is several sub-threads, which all cover different subjects. If you reply to a message in this part, you should at least make some references to a previous post. Since this reference is left out, I can copy and paste a short paragraph from a previous message, to give a hint for the context of our discussion. This was: "Dear Thomas, I dispute your claim that the British invented concentration camps. It seems clear that camps were used by Imperial Spain, in Cuba, in 1986, four years before their adoption by the British in South Africa. It is not clear who invented the concentration camp - I think it was probably the Romans; however, a well-known example is the "Reconcentrado Policy" of Imperial Spain, used to put down an uprising of the Cubans in 1895 - 1898." Now I had asked, what was the benefit of genocide in South America. As a reply came a remark about witchcraft. Well, possibly, witchcraft is actually responsible for genocide and concentration camps. But 'witchcraft' is not really fitting, since kind of female, while genocides show more male characteristics. Maybe 'sorcery' would fit better. TH
