Great link. I read it last night, and I lost a couple of hours sleep thinking about it. It made me feel like a coward for not standing up more for what I know is right. These people in the Warsaw ghetto who fought back, against incredible odds, after having survived months of unspeakable horrors, are the finest people the 20th Century has produced, IMNSFHO. Mila 18 is a great novel, but this short account of life (it's hard to use the word "life" to explain the existence these people suffered through daily) in the ghetto was much more moving to me.
Bookmarked and should be required reading in any 20th Century history course.

"The right of self-defense is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine this right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and when the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any color or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction." Henry St. George Tucker
