Holocaust!
"From anything, again all in something"!
How many years all without corporally.
Ah crystal to all beginning.
Evolutions cascades.
Scales measure and natures.
Punishment latently.
Time, where comets space?
Not to forget to us these wanderings.
There are immemorial triads.
Paradigms and monads.
Only there is at us one.
World only link.
There is a responsibility at us.
To keep smiles of eyes.
Holocaust we will say no.
After all minds and wise men not to consider.
Life it always one.
Volya Boga that is strong.
Wins only against that.
What for the world, another that?
Avel, Cain among people.
Only the world of everything is stronger.
Abraham and Yakov eternal.
What flood? Diplomacy is more pertinent.

Archiv-DVD's newest release, "Jud Suss: Holocaust Studies Series" is the definitive Holocaust collection which features the uncut version of Veit Harlan's vicious anti-Semitic costume epic.  For anyone to suggest this film had very little to do with the heinous crimes committed by the Nazis is not only scandalous but a slur against the slain six million during the Holocaust.  This is perhaps the only motion picture produced during the Third Reich which encompasses the true anti-Semitic ideology expounded under National Socialism.  Much of the screenplay was obviously penned by Goebbels with suggestions by Rosenberg and Streicher.  This single film was the cornerstone and exponent of the pre-launching of the official campaign against the Jews of Germany and then Nazi Occupied Europe from 1940 onwards.  It is certainly no coincidence nor accident that Goebbels ordered this film produced as early as 1938.  And it is neither a coincidence either than Reichsfuehrer-SS Heinrich Himmler ordered the entire SS and uniformed police to screen the film prior to going into active service on the Eastern Front by the coming Winter 1940.
This film was as well heavily screened in European areas prior to any official anti-Jewish aktion against the local population.  It was also heavily screened to SS guards and camp personnel at all the Nazi concen-tration/extermination camps.  One does not have to have much of an imgaination what the end results were.  And it is certainly no surprise to anyone that this film was entered into as evidence for the prosecution at the International Military Tribunal (The Nuermberg Trails) during 1945-1946.  Its director was tried twice for "Crimes against Humanity" for creating the film and acquitted twice.  It was agreed that the original negative be destroyed following the trial.  This never happened.  It is no suprise as well that this film is still banned by the German Govern-ment to this day as an official law exists banning this specific film.
I thoroughly suggest this film as an excellant example of Nazi anti-Semitic propaganda in the way art can be twisted to fit ideology, no matter how tainted it may be.  "Jud Suss" was quite obviously a celluloid blueprint for genocide no matter how subtle other reviewers may claim in their own naive opinion.

Fabulous book, put on your thinking cap, dwell within.

Warning: This book is for adults only & contains extreme violent or graphic adult content or profanity &/or sexually explicit scenarios. It may be offensive to some readers.

I did not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing this book. While I receive free books from publishers & authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review. Only an honest one.

A very awesome book cover, great font & writing style. A very well written historical fiction book. It was very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great a piece together historical fiction movie, or mini TV series. There is no doubt in my mind this is a very easy rating of 5 stars.

Thank you for the free (Goodreads; Writersspace; Deer Creek Resources LLC.; ARC; Paperback book

This remarkable book consists of the comprehensive results  interviews with and letters by 732 concentration camp survivors from the holocaust.
These young people-both boys and girls-where settled in Britain after World War II , some stayed and made lives in Britain , while others immigrated to the USA , Australia , Canada and Israel.
Some of the boys made their mark in the Israel War of Independence defending the fledgling Jewish State after it was attacked by five Arab armies , aiming to anihilate all Jews in Israel (as the Arabs and anti-Zionists of the world aim for today i.e a second holocaust.)
Part of the book consists of harrowing eyewitness accounts of the survivors , hence an important testament to holocaust remembrance. The accounts are often graphic and bring the grim reality of what happened to the Jewish people during world War II to bear on us.
It is important to remember the holocaust again , at times when some , like Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and others , deny it's existance.

It is important to remember the holocaust , at a time when the Islamic world and their far-left allies wish to destroy Israel , the phoenix that arose from the ashes of the Jewish people , and subject the Jews of Israel to a second holocaust.
It is interesting to see how for most of the survivors Israel and Zionism where an important part of their consciousness.
Anti-Zionist propaganda aims to prepare for genocide of Jews , in the same way as Nazi propaganda did , and therefore all Anti-Zionist and anti-Israel propaganda should be treated the same as Nazism-with no tolerance.
Most holocaust survivors and their descendants today live in Israel.
The future of the descendants of the survivors needs to be preserved , and therefore Israel must prevail.
That is what we must fight for when we say 'Never Again!'

"Our Holocaust" reads like a true story.  It is actually a compilation of true stories united by the author in the form of a novel.  I've read many books about the Holocaust, including several by Leon Uris, and I'm always horrified, yet compelled by the stories.  I've visited the Yad Vasheim in Jerusalem and know the story of the holocaust.  However, I will say that this book tells the story in a way that makes it so personal and human, and unbelievably riveting!  I was born just after the end of WWII, I am a Christian, not a Jew, and I believe all life is sacred, so to know that this kind of evil exists or ever existed in our world, touches me deeply.  This was not an easy book to read, and an important story that needed to be told!  Caring people everywhere should read it.  Thank you Amir Gutfreund, lest we should forget~!

Exposes - yet again! - the totalitarian agenda of the greenies. No wonder Western governments love these haters of humanity. What a way to control the population!

While being absolutely horrified by the Holocaust, I have always wondered if there weren't more "Oskar Schindlers" on a less grand scale.  This approach does not forgive any of the horrors, but puts a human face on potential humanity.

This book is every bit as disturbing as anything I have ever read about that other holocaust, the one that killed 6 million Jews.  It raises the most important moral question of our time, abortion.  Anyone believing that "a woman's control of her body" should know no limits should read and see in their soul what evil that belief together with a spineless, incompetent bureaucracy turning a blind eye to serve political correctness can cause.

The Holocaust is too evil, monstrous, enormous to attempt to comment upon with any meaning -- expecially by anyone but a Survivor -- either in direct relation to itself, or in terms of critiquing a book about it in 1,000 or  1,000,000 words. Since viewing as a child, some 50 years ago, the  documentary, "The Twisted Cross," I have read score upon score of  books about it, dozens of them twice. I have lived and worked in Germany,  spoken in German with men who, in their cups, "admitted" or  claimed to have been former camp guards. I have visited the preserved  remains of Dachau, the now-empty fields where other death camps once stood,  and finally the great Jewish graveyard of Auschwitz-Birkenau. Like many  others, I cannot comprehend or come to terms with the Holocaust, except to  describe it as the greatest crime, the greatest evil, human beings have  ever committed in our long and bloody history, most especially because it  was the industrialized attempt by one of the world's most  "advanced" and powerful nations at the time - Nazi Germany - to  make an entire people, the Jews - the unwanted leaven of civilization -  extinct. But these are really just words, as no language can begin to  address the torments of so many millions of innocents by the Nazis, every  second after second, hour after hour, millions of hours of every day for  all the Third Reich's years. After finishing reading Sereny's book (for the  second time), with all its interviews with Sobibor-Treblinka Commandant  Franz Stangl and the scores of others she talks with, one question, posed  early on, haunts me. It has since I first read the book some 20 years ago.  It is asked by an unidentified guard, 24, in the Dusseldorf prison where  Sereny interviewed Stangl. That guard, knowing Sereny was going to question  him, declares: "Perhaps now at long last one of them is going to have  the courage to explain to my generation how any human being with mind and  heart and brain could ... not even 'do' what was done ... but even see it  being done, and consent to remain alive." Neither Stangl nor Sereny  nor anyone in her book answers this question. The reader is left with his  own lifetime to puzzle out some sort of answer, alone.

"We must make sure that from now until the end of days all humankind stares this evil in the face ... only then can we be sure it will never arise again."  "Here we will learn that each of us bears responsibility for our actions and for our failure to act.  Here we will learn that we must intervene when we see evil arise..."  These are the words of two American presidents engraved on plaques in the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington D.C.  These  words  could and should equally be applied to the United States' abomination, the institution of slavery - an abomination whose shame cuts particularly deeply when one remembers that our nation was founded on the core belief of freedom from oppression in all forms.  Consider these words of George Washington:  "All possess alike liberty of conscience and immunities of citizenship.  For happily the government of the United States, which gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance, requires only that they who live under its protection should demean themselves as good citizens."  (8-17-1790)  The Holocaust is Germany's shame, and we must never forget what happened there, less we allow history to repeat itself.  Likewise, the oppression and enslavement of African Americans in our nation of "freedom" must never be forgotten, downplayed, justified, or swept under the carpet...
Lalita Tademy's novel, Cane River, is an important work because it helps us to remember.  Through telling the history of her own family, Tademy puts flesh and blood perspective into the horrific struggles and sorrows of slaves in the 1800s.  As a reader, I found myself righteously outraged as I watched white men possess and impregnate young teenage slaves, young children/husbands sold away from their mothers/wives, too-numerous-to-count injustices perpetrated against a people group just because of the "color" (said in quotes because of the bleaching of the color line...) of their skin.  Stripped of even the most basic of human rights, each of these women (Elizabeth, Suzette, Philomene and Emily) fought to keep the family together and to gain a better life for their children.
The themes covered in this book are very similar to those written about in Sally Hemings, the novel about Thomas Jefferson's slave wife/family (also a book that combines fiction  to provide motives and fact backed up by documents/letters).  Both these books compel the reader to walk in the footsteps of the slaves.  The only way I would have liked to have fine-tuned Tademy's novel would be to take each of the three sections - Suzette, Philomene, Emily - and write them from a first person perspective instead of from the "all-omniscient third person" perspective.  By writing in the first person, Tademy could have added greater depth and an even stronger voice to these women in her family and could have created a more intimate experience for the reader - but this is simply an editorial preference of my own.  I highly recommend this novel (and Sally Hemings, too)  and would love to see it (or both!) incorporated into school curriculum:
"Let us pledge that we will never shut our eyes, never refuse to acknowledge the truth, no matter how unpleasant.  If nothing else, the painful memory we share together should strengthen our resolve to do this.  Our founding fathers believed in certain self evident truths, but for truth to prevail we must have the courage to proclaim it... those victims who cannot be with us today do a vital service to mankind by being remembered."  (R. Reagan 4-11-83 re: future Holocaust museum - but I say "Amen" to remembering America's shame too!)  Thank you, Lalita Tademy for sharing your  family with us, so  we might remember...

What a powerful book. One of the early Zionist sayings was: "a people without land for a land without people". Well .... EXCUSE ME!!!!! The Israeli lobby effectively blocked the obvious question from US eyes: if there are one million Palestinian refugees, where did they use to live? Plus ... I found the saying "yesterday's oppressed become today's oppressors". Was that ever true of the Germans post WW1! To a very much smaller level that is also true of the 1945-1950 period. Even Golda Meir was horrified when she saw the cruelty that the Zionists directed at Palestinians who could be Christians, Muslims, Druzes, or animists. BUT please ... I also feel the same about the USA. "My" country has never been at peace since 1789, whether actively or by proxy. Check our "liberating" role of the Philippines. DK Goodwin's book "The Progressive Era" only mentioned it as a small dust-up. The future President Taft was the first Commissioner of the Philippines while anywhere from 100,000 to one million died (the latter if you count all the islands in the Philippine archipelago. White man's burden ....

What's amazing to me is no other cultural, racial or ethnic group has coined a tag line to prevent ANYONE from saying ANYTHING negative EVER about their group. We've been conditioned to hear the phrase "anti-semitic" and recoil in disgust equating it with images of emaciated corpses in mass graves.  I imagine that at some point in history, there is something less that positive to say about ANY group on earth, so why do we allow ourselves to be brow beaten into rejecting anything negative about Jewish people? Lets let the facts speak for themselves. Let the individual read the information and decide if it has anything useful to offer. I found the content informative and compelling and, believe it or not, I don't intend to use it to oppress or hurt anyone.

This book would make an exceptional follow-on study for a unit on the Holocaust.  Serious consideration might also be given to using Primo Levi's SURVIVAL IN AUSCHWITZ as an additional source.  (I much prefer Levi's book to Elie Wiesel's NIGHT, I might add--essentially the same story, though longer, but a beautifully written book.) But to THE SUNFLOWER, SHOULD (or COULD) anyone ever consider forgiving a Nazi for the atrocities of the Holocaust?  Under what circumstances, if any?  WHO should be allowed to forgive?  How DOES one reconcile the Judeo-Christian ethic of forgiveness (also given an attempt at atonement) with the horror of the Holocaust?  A tough one, indeed!
Exceptional material for a critical thinking-oriented class!
Of course, none of the above precludes simply reading THE SUNFLOWER for the sheer pleasure of it!

Hannah Arendt is just echoing and repeating the usual holocaust stories. The real genocide/holocaust happened in the conquered countries in the east by the securitiy-squads.

Thi book is a welcome catalogue of crimes begotten by the chosen people - a little bit like 'The Synagogue of Satan' by Andrew Carrington Hitchcock. The motive force behind is hinted. Tribal hate. Any in-depth analysis of the Jewish mind, from being brainwashed as belonging to the for very mysterious reasons perpetually persecuted cream of humanity is not offered. Maybe that's good. Maybe somebody more profficient would be needed to land such a task. It is very good that Solchenitzin's '200 Years Together' is mentioned, as well as quotations of him provided. Also the real reason of Stalin's successfully pampered 'Russian Heroism' is unfortunately being somewhat navely brushed over - truth is nobody wanted to fight for communuism and until the tide of 5 million deserters was finally stopped, by politruks shooting their own soldiers from behind and even by special units deployed behind the front solely to exterminate everybody suspicious of being on their way home - and especially by being made known to all that the families as well were shot of everybody caught wavering on their posts. It was thus terror and yet more terror - sheer terror and nothing else benhind this fantastic 'bravery' defending Stalins Sovjet soil ('Stalin's war of Extermination', Joachim Hoffan). However, this book still highligts what we gentiles are not supposed to know. Communism is indeed Jewish. From 19th Century on and all the way to Hollywood. From times immemorial this race has been busy undermining its hosts they are living from, always discontent, allways prone to hate - Jewish life seems shrouded in mysteries about all we should not know lest we get tired of them once again. Neither must we know that Gendric Yagoda ever exied. Dr Duke's work furthermore proves that this race is responsible for in excess of 5 times the crimes against humanity (allegedly) ascribed to our severly punished brothers the Germans. My late father used to say 'everybody today seems to be 'red' (a communist)'. Unfortunately it is just so.

The Savior is a novel about the Holocaust.  Thus, it is sad, full of horror and terror, and unsettling.  It could be nothing else.

Eugene Drucker takes a different tack in exposing the atrocities.  A German violinist is making his contribution to the German war effort by playing in hospital wards to wounded soldiers, who don't seem to appreciate the soloist's efforts nor his escaping front line duty.  Suddenly, the violinist gets orders to appear at a "work camp" to play for a select group of prisoners.  As he plays, the soloist becomes aware of how the camp is run, how prisoners are treated, and his role in the fate of these individuals.

A huge part of this story is the violinist's path of discovery of the "rubber-making" plant and the sadism of the prison commander and guards.  So is the violinist a part of this satanic process, or not?

Caution... be aware that you will not feel upbeat in any way at the conclusion of this novel.  I felt lousy.  And I wondered again, as I have in reading other accounts of this period, about our ability to act inhumanely to our fellows, and the issue of complacency during events such as this.  To think that at one time all these guards were innocent children themselves, and what they became.  Never again...

ANOTHER American cultural icon from the 60's has been

deemed unacceptable by those who would prefer to see

malice where none exists.

Not even Underdog can escape the slings and arrows of

those with the same mentality as the book-burners of

1930's Germany.

Why do we allow such obvious Orwellian "Newsspeak" to

edit our past? Come on... this IS a cartoon, for Pete's

sake, NOT some social/political statement.

Nothing here needs to be edited or "cleaned up". These

are simple "good vs. evil" stories with a happy ending,

and should be offered in their entirety... music/songs,

credits and all.

And, if one is offended by ANY of this... then one may

exorcise one's freedom NOT to purchase such!

Nuff' said...
