“I am Hanna Weiss, a native of Italy, No. A5377. I left Auschwitz alive. I feel that I triumphed. I have had a full, rich life. Every day that a person lives is a holiday.”
This statement by a survivor summed up the most important week in the Jewish-Israeli calendar, the week between Holocaust Remembrance Day and Memorial Day for Israel’s fallen soldiers, the week that epitomizes the Zionist revolution, from Holocaust to resurrection.
It’s true that it was not the 6 million victims who established the state, but they have supplied it with a flak jacket over the years. The thousands who paid the price of independence with their lives, those we commemorate next week, should be included with the 6 million.
The 6 million were the reason for the UN General Assembly’s partition resolution of November 1947. Were it not for them, the required majority would not have been reached. It was only the onerous guilt feelings of the nations of the world, who did nothing to stop the so-called Final Solution while it was being implemented, that tipped the scales. On November 30, 1947, Haaretz ran a special front-page editorial that said, “The nations of the world have resolved to redress the injustice of 2,000 years … the aspiration of a persecuted people, one that has known suffering and has undergone a Holocaust, is about to be realized.”
If it were not for these guilt feelings, the Czechoslovaks would not have shipped us weapons during the War of Independence, the Germans would not have stood by our side in all circumstances and situations, and the Americans would not have supplied us with money and warplanes year after year. So it is right to connect Holocaust Day with Memorial Day. They are both the basis for Independence Day.
The world feels guilty because the murder of Europe’s Jews was unprecedented in the annals of humankind. There has been no shortage of atrocities throughout history, but a preplanned liquidation according to a well-thought-out program aimed at wiping an entire nation off the earth – that had not yet occurred.
The countries of the West also feel guilty because they did not agree to open their gates to refugees from Germany and Austria before World War II. They also refrained from intervening in 1942, when the acts of annihilation were already known. They did not bomb, even once, the railroad lines leading to the gas chambers and crematoria or the death camp itself, although there were thousands of air raids and tens of thousands of bombs dropped near Auschwitz while the Nazi death machine was killing and burning the bodies of 12,000 Jews each day.
The cruel truth is that no one really cared. Hundreds of years of anti-Jewish propaganda, persecution, pogroms and expulsions prepared the ground for the hatred.
The conclusion must therefore be unequivocal: In our cynical and cruel world, we must continue trying to strengthen the Israel Defense Forces, regardless of our political outlooks. The world must know: Never again. Never again will Jewish blood be spilled with impunity, not here and not in any other corner of the globe.
And even in our cynical and cruel world, we must not ignore the rule of evil. It was evil that murdered 6 million Jews and set the whole of Europe alight (the Soviet Union alone sacrificed 27 million people in the war against Germany). And this evil has not ceased to exist.
But strengthening the IDF does not depend upon us alone. It depends on this country’s status, which in turn depends on the nations of the world and public opinion. Sixty-five years after the horrors of the Holocaust became clear, more and more voices in Europe say to Israel: No more. Guilt feelings as well have their limits. From now on we’ll treat you like a normal country. You will be judged by your deeds, for better or worse.
And indeed, the latest reports reveal that the number of anti-Semitic incidents rose sharply in 2009. This is a new kind of anti-Semitism that combines the ancient hatred with strong opposition to the occupation. In other words, time is working against us. Support for Israel and for bolstering the power of the IDF can no longer be taken for granted. The world’s guilt feelings are gradually becoming dulled, making it possible for the global criticism of the occupation of Palestinian territories to strengthen.
And because in the West it is public opinion that ultimately determines how governments act, we must reach an agreement that will get us out of those territories and make Israel a moral and just country once again.
This is because the Holocaust flak jacket won’t last forever. It is cracking as we watch, and soon it will no longer be able to protect us.

The greatest crime in this century is not Holocaust but giving Palestine land to the Jews is the crime! The Palestinian did not harm or interned the Jews in WWII but in the end they are now the victim and still suffering from European decision to get rid of their Jewish problem and unload unto them.The Palestinian are experiencing Holocaust now at the hands of decietful, lying, land grabbing Zionist Jews who have no rights to Palestine. Their rights were revoked when they continuosly break and do not follow their convenant and commandment from God. The last straw that broke the camel back, is when they conspire and kill their long awaited Messiah, Jesus of Nazzareth! The Zionist Israel now have no respect for international law and basic human rights. They consider themselves as ‘Chosen People’ above all others which closely resembled Hitler’s ‘Master Race’!The retribution for all their crimes them will come surely as God promise when all of them be gathered (Israel)and God will smite them once and for all!
Holocaust ? Which one? They, the Money landers, talked about a Holocaust after the 1st WW too. What about this Pogrom and that Pogrom? Why have they been forgotten? Its better to keep drumming ONE SINGLE POIT;is it? psychology eh? What about the 3 million Gypsies? Why these pathetic non Hebrew Jews not talk about 3 million Gypsies. There are so many minorities in the World lets start giving each minority someone else’s country and then supply them with ready made nukes. USA is there to sell..weapons is there livelyhood. What lovely idea! Recipe for disaster. Proof is in creation of Pisrael. Ever day violence of undescribeable proportion.
No the Non Sametic Jews with puffed up faces will not like that. No… Pisreal has to go to hell and will.
It is incredible, but Jews succeeded to turn their tragedy to their profit and excuse for more than 60 years. None of any other nations that were merely annihilated during the 20th century got so many apologies and benefits.
The whole nations in USSR were deported from their native lands in violent and inhuman way – only 24 hours were given to leave houses, thousands of people died during the trip and thousands died in the deserted territories of Soviet Union, where people were transported.
The huge KGB and GULAG system during tens of years was killing everybody who was trying to defend independency and rights of his nation! And atrocity of methods didn’t ever yield the Nazi ones.
Speaking about my native Ukraine more than 3 million (up to 10(!) by some investigations) of Ukrainians were killed only during 1932-1933 years by Holodomor and consequences of destroying of our nation are visible till now.
Hitler with his Holocaust was an innocent child comparing with 70 years of communist regime.
But nobody cares – Europe will never even declare openly equivalence between Nazi Germany and USSR in order not to make Russia angry.
But is this fair? Is this fair that some nations got their countries and maintenance of the whole world for their sufferings, and tragedy of others for tens of years is not even noticed and even tried to be denied??
That’s right – WHAT ABOUT GENOCIDE IN UKRAINE? Ukraine can ask for contributions from Russia and not only, “west” was watching at that crime and took no part against!!! Then Baltic’s – “suspicious” Latvians, Estonians and Lithuanians where sent to “labor camps” in Russia, mass graves where found by Nazi Germany troops in Baltic country’s and other. Katyn massacre was made by Soviets & etc. etc. When other nations will get the “satisfaction” from “United” nations?
Eisenhower was involved in this too…he hated the Germans and said so…he hated Ukraine…and said so…
thanks, yes, found it here, documents published that prove the Weasel is a fraud.
http://www.eutimes.net/2009/03/elie-wiesel-is-an-impostor-says-former-auschwitz-survivor/
Elie Wiesel is a fraud and never was in Auschwitz…so how could he have left with anybody?
When the Red Army approached to Auschwitz, later much revered poet Elie Wiesel had the choice to stay there or to leave with the retreating German forces.. and he went with the Germans.

I hope you all die in Obamas Holocaust, and then 100 years from now, people will say; those Americans never died, there was no obama.
You all deserve death- Obama is your judgement.
You seem a hate filled person. You are certainly using “hate speech”.
It is true that we deserve President Obama, as the people always get the government they deserve.
It can be well said that the Jewish people have brought all their own problems on themselves, while they blame everyone else for their troubles.
Patrick says “No Holocaust” And the moron lives in USA where Hussein Obama would CAUSE a Holocaust.
Well, free speech, right?
Yimach Shemo Vizchero, Patrick, may you and your whole family die a horrible cancerous death.
Patrick, the mad edomite jewess has spoken a curse on you and your entire family, that you all die of a horrible cancerous death. These are God’s chosen people? These are people of the Anti~Christ! This is exactly why they were “chosen” for extermination…(so you see, they were the chosen people). :twisted:
The Children of Israel are God’s choosen people! Prophecy of the Old Testiment accurately foretold the date that Israel would become a nation again. The trouble is that many, many Jews are not the children of Israel, and many who are have been conned by the Zionist agenda. To bring about the war of Armageddon and put the Jews in power over all the world.
Many God fearing Jews recognize this, but prophecy will be fulfilled.
People, there is a book titled, “The Myth of the Six”. another, “Did Six Million Really Die?”. Has all the census dated birth rates, death rates, and seeing as all of Europe only had 3 million Jews, I want to know how the number evolved to 6 million and why so many survivors?
The dates that the “Death Camps” were built is common knowledge. The number of Jews trained to these camps is recorded by the Nazis themselves. The number of untermensch arriving and put to death, the cremated is online fo all to read. Do the math! It is impossible that six million were disposed of between the inception date of the camps, and before the camps were discovered and shut down at the end of 1945. Do the math! Six million is a myth!
I don’t disagree slobo. In fact the Polish government reduced the numbers at Aushwitz from 4 to 1.5 million in 1992. I’m just quoting a New York Times article on the official reduction from the Polish government, I don’t want to upset gringo. With the official decline 2.5 million at Aushwitz and no reported increase at other sites why is 6 million still the official number?
The same reason the Edomite jews tried to declare that 6 million Edomites were murdered in WWI, but that fable never took hold. They had to try it again.
The number six is sacred to the Edomites. It is cabalistic. Even their FAKE star of “david” is six within six within six points.
Six means chaos and it is what the Edomites thrive on.
When will people wake up to the real threat of this evil and vile serpent race who call themselves Judah and Israel, but lie?
How are you tring to convince? Lets accept your number at face value. It has been admitted that Germany had no plan of extermination of Jews on German soil. Of the number that died how many died of Colera, Typhus, and Typhoid? Of which there was a national epidemic. After 1943 the Allied bombing campaign systematicly bombed and destroyed railroads, bridges, and trains. Making delivery of food as difficult as delivery of the military across Europe. Food and medical supplies were in short supply.
Russia had a secular Jewish government and Christians were sent to labor camps, starved to death, or simply shot. 30 to 40 million Christians were murdered. Is this a greater or lesser crime than the Jewish Holocaust by a secular Christian government?
There are a number of very good web sites that deal with the subject, but rather than picking out one of my favorites simply Google search “Jews declare war on Germany”. Some sites will say it never happened, and other sites will provide the News Paper headlines and give a detailed account of the events leading up to the Nazi internment of German Jews.
Naturally if you are not objective or interested in facts, don’t waste your time. It typically takes about 100 years for the truth to come out about any war. It’s been about 70 years now, in about 30 more years these things will be common knowledge.
If the so-called Holocaust really killed so many Jews, “HOW COME THERE ARE SO MANY SURVIVORS?”. The Germans were very efficient, I don’t think that many would have survived if they meant to exterminate them. They needed to get all the communist sympathizers in prison to prevent them from guerilla warfare(tools of the Jews) on real troops.
The holocaust won’t protect Israel forever due to the facts slowly coming out. With the Madagascar Plan the original intent was never to exterminate the jews, only move them out of Europe. The plan couldn’t be carried out due to the turn of events in the war. Germany as stated above was meticulous with documentation, no need to document those you wish to exterminate. Slave labor isn’t a good excuse as the registered live births would cause serious loss of man hours, again why care for and let a people reproduce if the goal is extermination?
Why bother carefully identifying inmates of a camp if extermination was the goal?
Sorry to repost the above post was not clear and did not make sence.
Russia had a secular Jewish government with the Bolshivics with Lenin & Stalin in power between 30 and 40 million Christians were murdered or starved to death. While the whole world stood by and did nothing. Why is the Jewish holocaust so much worse than the Christian holocaust that came before?
If victims tend to become victimezers what of the greatest victims of the last 2000 years. Might they tend to be the greatest victimizers. We might ask the Palistinians what they think. Or we might have an objective discussion on the subject. As if either one would ever happen.

In the internment centers between 100,000 to 150,000 Jews died, mostly from Tuberculosis and Allies bombed out all food storage sources and medical supplies.
The so called Holohoax never happened.
Everybody knows that
Well well well… Freedom of speech I supose
But freedom of speech cannot allow you to say everything, beginning by what is punished by the law.
In europe, which was kind at the first rows for the WWII, it is illegal to say what you said.
You can be sued and go to JAIL for that
Because, no, not everybody “know that”. In fact only an infime dickhead minority BELIEVE that…
You should meet some survivors and dare to tell them your shit.
What a pity.. A few years and nobody will be able to tell from his own experience what it was like to live and die in thoses places… And then dickheads like you would proudly say “nothing happened”
Fortunately there are some movies for yor instruction, it is never too late
you can begin with “soah”, just to learn about human nature and your own behaviour : negationism
P.S : Just in case, I’m not jew, and I find this article very true : Israel people can’t rely on their past forever to justifie the abominations of today…
I’m just a young european believing in a united europe, free from stupid and violent nationalism. I’m not even lefty, and you’ll see more and more people of my kind.
You should meet some survivors and dare to tell them your shit.
lol! What survivors? There cannot be survivors to something that NEVER happened.
Having said that, if any DAMNED Edomite jew comes to me crying their little holyhoax lie, I’ll beat them to a bloody pulp.
The finger nail of one White person is more precious than a million Edomite jews.
I am JamesTheJust. I did not make the statement above, as I don’t use a flag next to my name.
Someone is going around and making statements using my name and this is not the first time, They are probably Edomites, since they are that evil and devious.
If a British group of Jewish businessmen did not declare that German Jews would spy on Germany for the Allied military effort. Germany might not have felt the need to intern it’s Jewish citizens.
It is known that Jewish immigrants working on the American atomic bomb project were spies working for Stalinist Russia. The Bolshivics murdered between 30 and 40 million Christians.
