(4,974 posts)My father and his brother were the only family members who survived, . My uncle lost his wife and 8 year old son, along with my grandparents and his sister, for whom I am named. He remarried. His wife was also a survivor. Every single member of my family of my generation is named for a family member who was gassed and sent to the crematorium.
Before being herded into cattle cars to the death camps, my Aunt witnessed her father being shot to death in their home during a pogrom. She hid and survived.
This brutal ruthless slaughter of innocents in their homes, at a concert, going about their daily lives, brings to mind the pogroms Eastern European Jews endured for centuries and Aktions of the Nazis.
I am boiling with fury for anyone who excuses these vicious antisemitic acts.
I'm with you PC Intern. We cannot and will not stand for this.
