It looks like we as a planet of humans haven't learned anything.We are repeating everything! We have ignored the slaughter of innocents in the Sudan and now in Durfur,and if that isn't the same as what we also ignored in the old Yugoslavia with "ethnic cleansing" and now again with the religious cleansing in Iraq..it is just like the Nazis and the Jewish solution.We have a dictator running this country and the American public and the newspapers have their heads in the sand and do not speak up because they are afraid,and are weak.Children are in control of their parents..and we all are causing the planet to fall apart with our pollution,and garbage and selfishness.We are seeing the fall of civilizations and the destruction of the planet...I would say that is a major piece of history that is being repeated.

Reminds me of a quote from George Santayana:
"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."

Probably everthing. As writer Georg Hegel once said, "We learn from history that we do not learn from history."
