there is no barometer

was the holocaust worse than blacks slavery in the united states? was the brutal murder of the holtzbergs in mumbai the worst murder in mumabai during the weekend mumabai was terrorized two years ago ? was the murder of the fogel's in itamar worse than the japanese tsunami this weekend? DO NOT leave any comments as to which you think is worse. i wasn't aware that there was a contest of who can suffer the most. everyone who has endured any of these tragedies have suffered . trying to minimize someone else's suffering is irrelevant. these were all  devastating events where people have suffered immeasurably. life is not a pity party where the one who has suffered the most wins a prize for suffering the most. and tell me who really wants to  be the one who has suffered the most? 
may there be an end to all suffering and to those who feel the sick need to compare suffering just to make themselves feel better.
