The concept of "collective guilt" of a nation, race, religion or tribe—especially when it includes individuals who weren't even born at the time of wrongdoing—is incredibly destructive. It leads to family feuds, tribal war that lasts centuries or even millennia and it's a very likely trigger for WW3. There are inter-group grievances that will never be settled to the satisfaction of all parties. Not only that, but they're so inflammatory that even attempting to resolve the conflicts of centuries past, leads to further anger and cycles of violence going forward. People need to be held accountable for their own actions, not the actions of others who look like them, have the same family name, live on the same patch of land or worship the same god(s).
