Interesting. I just overheard on the televisionberg in the background that in 2 weeks, NBC will show a movie called "Uprising", depicting the uprisings in the Jewish Ghettos during Nazi rule. One of the cuts from the program involved smuggling of weapons into the Jewish Ghettos for resistance. It will be interesting. I rarely watch television, but I think I will watch this one. |

They had a scene about that in the mini-series, "Holocaust". There is also a movie coming out called "Soribor" about one of the only revolts in a concentration camp. It was amazing how willingly the Jews were led to slaughter. Some did join partisan bands, but the great majority of them were like sheep. The Warsaw Ghetto did revolt in 1944, with the Soviets only miles away. Stalin chose to let the Germans finish off the Jews before taking the city. |

Quoted: The Warsaw Ghetto did revolt in 1944, with the Soviets only miles away. Stalin chose to let the Germans finish off the Jews before taking the city. And yet so many Jews embraced and continue to embrace communism. Or "Hey you contributed the the attempted extermination of everyone I'm related to....How can I join you?" |
