Alle Welt gedachte gestern des Mauerfalls vor 20 Jahren in Berlin! Aber da war auch noch was anderes am 09. November: 1938 brannten in diesem Lande Synagogen und wurden Menschen ermordet weil sie jdischen Glaubens waren. Im Duisburger Rathaus gab es gestern abend aus diesem Anlass eine Gedenkveranst ...
