    Synonyms: Kristallnacht, Reichskristallnacht
    • :
      Das Wort "Reichspogromnacht" schafft Distanz und sterilisiert das Grauen – wie die "Bartholomäusnacht" vom 23. August 1572, in der in Paris an die 3.000 Protestanten massakriert wurden. "Mordnacht" oder "Blutnacht" wären präzisere Begriffe, aber die quälen die Seele.
