    Niemöller is perhaps best remembered for the quotation1 : First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out-because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out- because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me-and there was no one left to speak for me.

    That was before the war. See "Germany Must Perish" and the "Morgenthau Plan". Once the war was over the allied high command realized how incompetent their soldiers and commanders were on the whole. They needed the Germans as a buffer against the Soviets. Hence the feeding and re-armament of Germany.

    So, this man's grandmother was intelligent enough to go into hiding, but not charming enough to convince her grandson the value of her wisdom. His youthful naivety obviously cost him a lot and was a life lesson he needed to learn, because he decided to learn the hard way. Later he didn't care about anything or anyone. He hadn't learnt the lesson yet. Perhaps he still hasn't figured it all out at his old age now. If he is even still among the living. Listening to his story doesn't sound like he learned anything. What is he teaching the new generation? That he suffered when he didn't have to...

    Very moving. I've known a jewish woman who was fourteen when she was deported to AUSCHWITZ . I wrote a song about IDA GRINSPAN : "Deported to Auschwitz, IDA 1944". Here the link to this song : kzread.info/dash/bejne/eYGtm6WCp9i5aLw.html In his book :"YOU'VE GOT TO TELL THEM, a french girl's experience of Auschwitz and after", Ida explains her arrest, the tragic trip and the hope of finding her MOTHER in the camp. But she didn't see her again. She was fourteen when she was deported to AUSCHWITZ. After, she came to schools and high schools to talk to the young students about deportation and life in Auschwitz camp. She died in 2018. Also a wonderful woman.

    Thank you for sharing with me a horrendous fragment of the infamous Hitler' Nazi regimen. The crimes and cruelties committed against my sons and daughters, my fathers and mothers, my brothers and sisters hurt me deeply, regardless their ethnicity and nationality. In Isaiah 2: 4, Jehovah God, the Creator and Source of life, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, promises: "He will be judge among the nations and will settle matters in relation to many peoples. They will turn their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning shears. The nations will no longer raise their swords against each other and learn no more to wage war." My immediate neighbors are Jews and I am a Jehovah's Witness. Their hearts are superior than pure gold by far. They are extremely kind. The gentleman takes care of my trash can every Wednesday without my asking him to do so. They are lovely human beings, and they are not in need of the smallest improvement. It must have been a painful odyssey it is to recollect such memories and to recount them.

    Human beings are very strange! The British played the role of Rescuer in one part of the world and killers in another part of the world. The same British caused the death of 30 million( approx) people in Indian subcontinent over 100 years directly or indirectly. It is mostly loot from India which fueled British role in 2nd world war! probably the largest lose of human life in one particular political dominance in the history of mankind! Yet surprisingly the world mostly does not know about it partly because India itself turned around and progressing to be major power shrugging off its own terrible past! Probably there is nothing called good or bad from human perspective, its all just circumstantial !
