I'd like to praise all the merits of education and re-education with all my
heart, for I can't see anything else that's positive and would eventually
turn the world into a better place to live; only if we examine that
de-nazification process more closely, it turns out that still it hasn't
worked for everybody. And it didn't take a whole nation to hijack the
planes.

Oh, what terrible tragedy this is!
