Bangladesh: Farah Ghuznavi

The memory of the Holocaust is alive and well, and the lobbying and the demands around it continue. It would be almost shameful if we forgot that quickly. For example, the Pakistan government has never apologised properly, there have never been reparations paid. You can’t heal until you cauterize a wound. You can’t just keep changing the dressing on it and refusing to do the actual lancing of a boil that is required.
