There is no question in my mind that we must keep alive the memory of the torture and murder of Jews at the hands of the Nazis YSh"W.
But, what's the point if we continue to pretend that the Nazis were the only criminals?
And, what's the point if we do almost nothing to prevent the Holocausts currently in progress?
1. Non-Jewish Collaborators
What about the International Red Cross which "inspected" the Terezstaat concentration camp, while Jews were being tortured and murdered elsewhere in Europe.
We let them get away with it, so now they're doing more of the same, if not worse, by aiding and abetting our enemies.
What of the catholic church? Powerless to do anything? Yeah, right! Pope Pius XII YSh"W's silence regarding the extermination of Jews during the War was deafening. And what those righteous followers of this same church who, after World War II, refused to give up those Jewish children they so gallantly "rescued" by hiding them?
I remember hearing the story of a Jewish member of the French Underground, who was relocated to England. She volunteered to go back to France to gather such "rescued" children, and return them to relatives or other Jewish homes. She succeeded in bringing back 50 or so, yet still couldn't forgive herself for failing to bring back one young girl on her list.
She knew the value of a Jewish soul. Goyim, for the most, treated us like chattel, including those in the almighty US, who were guilty of nothing less than second degree murder [in some states], by their refusal to allow fleeing Jews onto American soil, turning them back to take their chances on the high seas, or even back in Europe.
Sure, there were righteous gentiles, and sure they deserve our reverence. But, the truth is, that there just weren't THAT many of them to warrant the incessant, codependent, "Thank you, thank you! Please like and accept us!" we slobber over non-Jews on a regular basis.
Oh, and don't worry, I haven't forgotten that Jews are not absent of guilt, those having the hutzpah to call themselves Jews anyway. Mainly, I call to mind the leaders of the so-called Reform Jewish Movement in the US, who discouraged the lifting of even ones little finger to help their fellow Jews.
Where was its "social action committee" then? Well, I'll tell you where some of those like-minded individuals are now,...aiding and abetting the enemies of the Jewish People. Just last week, Jewish leftists worked together with Yishma'elim to uproot grapevines planted by Jews. On Tu b'Shvat, the Jewish New Year of the Trees, the same team worked together to prevent Jews from even planting trees.
Ever heard of the book Perfidy by Ben Hecht z"l? It reports on the failure to rescue religious, Hungarian Jews during the Holocaust, and the roles various Jewish leaders played in this not so accidental failure.
2. Assisted Suicide
And, no, I don't mean of the medical variety. I mean the variety where Jews allow Yishma'elite (Arab) terrorists to continue to kill us,...and all for the sake of "peace." For goodness sakes! What peace?!
So-called "Jewish" leaders in Israel continue to sell Jewish live down the proverbial river, while Jewish leaders outside of Israel encourage them to do so,...all the while inviting each other to various Holocaust memorial events and dedications.
Jews continue to repeat their same, failed strategies to achieve "peace," expecting that "this time it will work out differently somehow." Yet, it NEVER does.
The list of events in this compulsive repetition of history is long to long to include here. I will list only a few here: the Oslo Accords, release of Yishma'elite prisoners, arming the so-called Palestinian police force, and we have not even begun to feel the brunt of the traitorous relinquishing of the Azza and Northern Shomron towns.
Even now, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has met with PA Chairman, and Holocaust-denier, Mahmud Abbas in order to "negotiate." How does one "negotiate" with someone whose introduction to his doctoral thesis covers "the secret ties between the Nazis and the Zionist movement leadership?"*
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, the next time you decide to meet with a Holocaust-denier, click the link above to remind yourself that a denier is nothing less than a perpetrator.
May the Holy One, Blessed Be He, have mercy on us and protect us.
3. Intermarriage: The Not-So Silent Holocaust
Some of the same big Jewish donors to huge Holocaust memorial museums...are married to non-Jews.
And, of course, the Erev Rav, pseudo-Jewish clergy is on the spot to validate their relationships, or to kasher them with pig fat, in other words, quasi-"convert" the non-Jewish spouse. All it takes is a boink on the head with a magic wand.
This "clergy" makes up the Jewish collaborators in this particular Holocaust.
And, do you think that here in Israel we are immune?
Most immigrants from former Soviet republics to Israel are not Jewish. It has been reported to that some are event being actively recruited to come, while some real Jews are left out in the cold because they can't afford train fair to Kiev or Minsk to begin processing their applications. But, of course, those in the [non] Jewish Agency are simply there to implement the policies of the Israeli Foreign Ministry...just following orders....
More inter-marriage prospects....
Not too long ago, former Interior Minister Ophir Pines-Paz (Labor Party), was responsible for granting the children of foreign workers a special status, allowing many to reside here.
More inter-marriage prospects....
While another former Intertior Minister Avraham Poraz YSh"W (Shinu'i Party) blocked the immigration to Israel by converts and relatives of converts from India and Peru. Most of these immigrants are religious, many live/d in Yehudah, Shomron, & Azza (Judea, Samaria, & Gaza), and vote right-wing or right of center.
You don't suppose that the immigration policy of the Israeli government has anything to do with votes, do you?
Well, as politically-incorrect as it may sound, the fake Jewish conversions, and the importing of non-Jews into the country from various former Soviet republics, and for that matter, Thailand and the Philipines, cannot yet beat the birthrate of religious Jews in Israel.
But, how long will we be able to keep this birthrate up, until the next piece of legislation by the Israeli Government strikes another anti-Torah/anti-Jewish blow to the Israeli population?
Well, the good news is that there are a variety of organizations who are working to prevent this Holocaust:
Yad leAchim - rescues, and attempts to prevent inter-marriage between Arabs and Jews.
Young Israel - teaching Jews about what it means to be Jewish.
Orthodox Union of Hebrew Congregations - I'm generally NOT the OU's biggest fan, but in this regard, it IS doing something.
Victims Of Arab Terror - the name speaks for itself
There are many more helpful organizations including yeshivas, seminaries, and youth programs designed to remind Jews what their roles are on this earth, and to take pride in it.
The next time you have a change to donate a modest amount of money to help us remember what happened, and to whom, use your best judgment.
The next time you have a chance to donate money to build a gold plated house with a huge plaque with YOUR name on it, for goodness sakes, take that money and give it to someone who is trying to prevent a holocaust.
