The
Israeli Coat of Arms
features the
Menorah, the
candelabra used in the
ancient Temple in
Jerusalem. It, along
with other Temple
artifacts, was captured
almost two millennia ago
by the Romans during
their siege of
Jerusalem.
According
to the historian Flavius
Josephus, a Jew who
lived at the time of the
Romans, "Most of the
spoils that were carried
were heaped up
indiscriminately, but
more prominent than all
the rest were those
captured in the Temple
at Jerusalem - a golden
table weighing several
hundred weight, and a
lampstand similarly made
of gold but differently
constructed from those
we normally use. The
central shaft was fixed
to a base, and from it
extended slender
branches placed like the
prongs of a trident, and
with the end of each one
forged into a lamp:
these numbered seven,
signifying the honour
paid to that number by
the Jews."
(Josephus, The Jewish
War, G.A. Williamson,
translator, Penguin,
1959.)
The
Arch of Titus in Rome
has on it a carving
depicting the spoils of
the Temple - including
the Menorah - being
carried triumphantly
through Rome.

Understanding
the Holocaust leads to
understanding hate.
Studying the rise of the
Nazis and their
extermination of the
Jews and other social
undesirables is an
exploration into how
ordinary people can,
through mass persuasion
and social structural
constraints, be led into
committing genocide, the
ultimate horror in human
behavior. [Drs. Carol &

Why did the
Nazis murder the Jews?
The answer
to this question is highly
debated among historians.
Some have stated that it had
always been Hitler's plan to
exterminate the Jews, while
others have perceived the
mass murders as a result of
a long and curved process,
where the Nazi Jewish policy
was gradually radicalised.
The Jews'
presence in the
German-occupied parts of
Europe was seen as a problem
and a great annoyance. At
best, they were to disappear
from the face of the earth,
so that the Nazis could
reach their goal: a Greater
Germany free from Jews.
Different solutions were
tried: voluntary
immigration, forced
immigration, and several
different plans for
deportation. Plans surfaced
to deport all the Jews to
the east, first to eastern
Poland, then to Siberia.
Serious plans were also
developed that included
deporting all European Jews
to the island of Madagascar,
of the east coast of Africa.
All these
plans had to be dropped,
however, because of the war.
At the same time, the Nazis
had gained experience with
systematic mass murder in
the form of the Euthanasia
Programme, where physically
and psychologically disabled
were killed by the state.
This constituted the
crossing of an important
psychological barrier.
Another such barrier was
crossed with the beginning
of the Germans' incredibly
cruel war of extermination
against the Soviet Union,
which commenced in June
1941. All usual conventions
for warfare were dropped at
the beginning of this 'the
final battle against
Judeo-Bolshevism'.
The result
of the frustrations with the
unsuccessful deportation
plans, of the experiences
with the euthanasia actions,
of the war with the Soviet
Union, and not least of the
wish to find the 'Final
Solution to the Jewish
Question' --all these
elements lead to the
systematic mass murder of
approximately 6 million
Jews.

What is
the Origin of the Word
"Holocaust"?
The word
holocaust comes from the
ancient Greek, olos
meaning "whole" and kaustos
or kautos meaning
"burnt." Appearing as
early as the fifth century
B.C.E., the term can mean
a sacrifice wholly
consumed by fire or a
great destruction of life,
especially by fire.
While the
word holocaust,
with a meaning of a burnt
sacrificial offering, does
not have a specifically
religious connotation, it
appeared widely in
religious writings through
the centuries,
particularly for
descriptions of "pagan"
rituals involving burnt
sacrifices. In secular
writings, holocaust
most commonly came to mean
"a complete or wholesale
destruction," a
connotation particularly
dominant from the late
nineteenth century through
the nuclear arms race of
the mid-twentieth century.
During this time, the word
was applied to a variety
of disastrous events
ranging from pogroms
against Jews in Russia, to
the persecution and murder
of Armenians by Turks
during World War I, to the
attack by Japan on Chinese
cities, to large-scale
fires where hundreds were
killed.
Early
references to the Nazi
murder of the Jews of
Europe continued this
usage. As early as 1941,
writers occasionally
employed the term holocaust
with regard to the Nazi
crimes against the Jews,
but in these early cases,
they did not ascribe
exclusivity to the term.
Instead of "the
holocaust," writers
referred to "a holocaust,"
one of many through the
centuries. Even when
employed by Jewish
writers, the term was not
reserved to a single
horrific event but
retained its broader
meaning of large-scale
destruction. For example:
You are
meeting at a time of great
tragedy for our people. In
our ... deep sense of
mourning for those who
have fallen ... we must
steel our hearts to go on
with our work ... that
perhaps a better day will
come for those who will
survive this holocaust.
(Chaim Weizmann, letter to
Israel Goldstein, December
24, 1942)
What
sheer folly to attempt
to rebuild any kind of
Jewish life [in Europe]
after the holocaust of
the last twelve years!
(Zachariah Shuster,
Commentary, December
1945, p.10)
By the
late 1940s, however, a
shift was underway. Holocaust
(with either a lowercase
or capital H) became a
more specific term due to
its use in Israeli
translations of the word sho'ah.
This Hebrew word had been
used throughout Jewish
history to refer to
assaults upon Jews, but by
the 1940s it was
frequently being applied
to the Nazis' murder of
the Jews of Europe.
(Yiddish-speaking Jews
used the term churbn, a
Yiddish translation of
sho'ah.) The equation of
holocaust with sho'ah was
seen most prominently in
the official English
translation of the Israeli
Declaration of
Independence in 1948, in
the translated
publications of Yad Vashem
throughout the 1950s, and
in the journalistic
coverage of the Adolf
Eichmann trial in Israel
in 1961.
Such usage
strongly influenced the
adoption of holocaust
as the primary
English-language referent
to the Nazi slaughter of
European Jewry, but the
word's connection to the
"Final Solution" did not
firmly take hold for
another two decades. The
April 1978 broadcast of
the TV movie, Holocaust,
based on Gerald Green's
book of the same name, and
the very prominent use of
the term in [United States
President] Jimmy Carter's
creation of the
President's Commission on
the Holocaust later that
same year, cemented its
meaning in the
English-speaking world.
These events, coupled with
the development and
creation of the United
States Holocaust Memorial
Museum through the 1980s
and 1990s, established the
term Holocaust
(with a capital H) as the
standard referent to the
systematic annihilation of
European Jewry by
Germany's Nazi regime.

annihilation
of the Jews of

Anti-Semitism
-- A History of
Hate as the
World's Longest
Hatred
|
|
Anti-Semitism,
strictly defined
as prejudice
directed at the
Jewish people, has
existed in one
form or another
ever since
Judaism's
beginnings. Often
referred to as the
oldest hatred,
anti-Semitism
originally was
based on the
mistrust of a
religion whose God
is invisible and
all-powerful. Even
today, the
anti-Semite uses
the word "Jew" not
in religious
terms, but in
social, economic
and political
contexts. [Florida

Jews
being buried
in Kielce,
Poland, in
1946 --one
year after the
Nazi Holocaust
ended, as a
result of the
Kielce
massacre
committed by
ordinary
Polish
citizens
against their
own
neighbouring
Jews that were
able to
survive the
Holocaust.
To
squash these
revelations,
the 2008
Public
Prosecutor of
Krakow, Poland
announced that
it will
prosecute
anyone under a
2006 law
prohibiting
anyone from
asserting that
"the Polish
nation" was
involved in
crimes or
atrocities
committed by
Nazis or
communists.
Yes,
facing the
truth is not
easy for a
nation where
the
Anti-semitism
appeared to be
part of its
fabric. The
Polish poet
Czeslaw Milosz
once said that
Poland's
Communist
rulers
fulfilled the
dream of
Polish
nationalists
by creating an
ethnically
pure state.
That was in
the end
Hitler's
ultimate dream
--that of
creating an
ethnically
"pure" Europe.

The
Kielce Pogrom
triggered a
massive
westward
migration of
hundreds of
thousands of
Jews who had
survived
the Holocaust.
The movement,
known as the
Brihah,
brought Jews
from Poland
and other
eastern
European
countries to
Displaced
Persons Camps
(DPCs) located
in the western
zones of
occupied
Germany and
Austria, and
in Italy. [US Holocaust Memorial Museum]

From
Polish
Center for
Holocaust
Research:
|
|
The
Holocaust
happened on
our soil
[Poland], in
full view of
the Polish
society. The
Holocaust is
an integral
part --whether
one wants it,
or not-- of
Polish
history. For
Poles, the
experience of
the Holocaust
remains a
unique event
and carries
with it
extraordinary
responsibilities.
Nevertheless,
in terms of
social
awareness,
Shoah seems to
belongs to
Jewish rather
than to Polish
history. Even
today many
Poles feel ill
at ease,
threatened or
outright
disappointed
by the Jewish
perceptions of
the Holocaust
and oftentimes
the Jews are
seen as rivals
in the
martyrology
competition.
Despite the
recent
historical
research and
public
debates,
culminating
with the
discussion
around the
Jedwabne
crime, Polish
society
largely
ignores the
issues related
to the
Holocaust.
Still too many
myths and lies
are finding
their way to
the public
sphere and
enter public
circulation.

The New
Anti-Semitism: Subtle and
Coded
|
|
.
|
Kings,
pharaohs, generals,
fuehrers, Moslem extremists,
and more have tried to
exterminate the Jews for
millennia. The Bible
predicts the persecution of
both Jews and Christians in
many Scriptural references,
with an intensification in
the "end-times." The Arab
world fans the flames of
anti-Semitism, as well as
much of Europe and even
Canada.
It has
become more obvious in
America with the push for a
Palestinian state. Many,
though certainly not all,
who are pushing in America
for a Palestinian state, and
particularly on U.S.
campuses, have anti-Semitic
sentiment.

During March 2000 Pope John Paul II made news by
requesting
forgiveness in
the most
significant
confession to
come from the
Vatican. The
Pope publicly
asked
forgiveness
for the
Church's sins
involving
Jews, women,
heretics, and
other
maltreated
groups. He
unequivocally
stated, "We
forgive and we
ask for
forgiveness".
The Holocaust
was not
mentioned nor
were any other
specific
events, but
simply the
acknowledgement
of wrongdoing
was
significant.

Should we fast? The
question was
hotly debated.
To fast would
mean a surer,
swifter death.
We fasted here
the whole year
round. The
whole year was
Yom Kippur.
But others
said that we
should fast
simply because
it was
dangerous to
do so. We
should show
God that even
here, in this
enclosed hell,
we were
capable of
singing His
praises.
I
did not fast,
mainly to
please my
father, who
had forbidden
me to do so.
But further,
there was no
longer any
reason why I
should fast. I
no longer
accepted God's
silence. As I
swallowed my
bowl of soup,
I saw in the
gesture an act
of rebellion
and protest
against Him.
And
I nibbled my
crust of
bread.
In
the depths of
my heart, I
felt a great
void.

Holocaust Myths
& Facts
- Jews being blamed by
European leaders for
"disproportionate response" to the
Holocaust [sic!]
(As reported by the
New York Times of May 10, 1943)
- On the Question of
Holocaust Victims being made into
Soap
|
Dr. Robert
Rozett, director of the
Yad Veshem's library, when
asked about "human soap"
which was said to have
been manufactured from the
fat of those who were
murdered, Rozett stated
that these were mostly
rumors used by the Nazis
to frighten the inmates.
The INA has discovered
that a Soviet prosecutor
was quoted at length from
an affidavit by Sigmund
Mazur, an Institute
employee, which was
accepted as Nuremberg
exhibit USSR-197. It
alleged that Dr. Rudolf
Spanner, the head of the
Danzig Institute in
Germany, had ordered the
production of soap from
corpses in 1943. A human
soap "recipe," allegedly
prepared by Dr. Spanner
(Nuremberg document
USSR-196), was also
presented. One fact is
known. The Nazis did use
human hair and skin to
make various products.
