….Can we learn from WW2 for the War in Ukraine? "The Shadow of War" Multimedia Project .. Können wir vom Zweiten Weltkrieg für den Krieg in der Ukraine lernen? Projekt "Der Schatten des Krieges” ….
We have not learned from the past, and the people who made the experience are no longer here to warn us about the outcomes. So far, an estimated 124,500 to 131,000 people have died in the Ukrainian war; some talk about 500,000. Husbands, wives, children, and animals are killed. Buildings and houses blown up and landscapes devastated. Dreams broken, limbs lost, and many tears shed. That is why I decided to put the full-length interviews of "The Shadow of War" multimedia project in English and in German online. Can learn from those stories how to deal with the current situation in Ukraine? I believe we absolutely can. They show the brutality, the inhumanity, the destruction, and the physical, mental, and emotional scars that war inflicts.
