HOLOCAUST Tribute - THE PROMISE ( V'hi Sh'am'da by Shimon Craimer )
What is HOLOCAUST?
The Holocaust was the systematic, bureaucratic, state-sponsored persecution and murder of approximately six million Jews by the Nazi regime and its collaborators.
It goes on to say that at the same time: German authorities also targeted other groups because of their perceived racial inferiority: Roma (Gypsies), the disabled, and some of the Slavic peoples (Poles, Russians, and others). Other groups were persecuted on political, ideological, and behavioral grounds, among them Communists, Socialists, Jehovah's Witnesses, and homosexuals.
In the Holocaust (1941-1945) the aim was the total genocide (murder, destruction) of the Jews.
The Jews in Germany were subject to growing persecution by the Nazis since the latter came to power in 1933. From 1938 onwards Hitler extended German control over a large part of Europe, especially after the invasion of Poland in 1939. In the process, the number of Jews under Nazi rule grew rapidly.
When the Germans invaded the Soviet Union in June 1941, special death squads (''SD-Einsatzgruppen - mobile killing units'') moved in and carried out mass open air killings of Jews, one of the most notorious being at Babi Yar where about 33,500 Jews were slaughtered.
In 1941-42 extermination camps were established by the Nazis in Poland. The following camps existed solely for the purpose of exterminating (usually by gassing):
* Auschwitz (part of the Birkenau section)
* Chelmno (Kulmhof)
* Belzec
* Sobibor
* Treblinka
* Majdanek (part only; the rest was a very harsh concentration camp) * Maly Trostinets (in Belarus) * Bronnaya Gora (in Belarus)
Auschwitz became the most notorious camp of all. Part of it existed purely for the purpose of gassing victims. Others were worked to death on grossly inadequate food. There were frequent outbreaks of typhus in the labor camps. Some died from quack medical 'experiments'.
Two of Germany's Axis allies, Romania and the puppet state of Croatia, conducted their own Holocausts - often using heavy, blunt instruments instead of gas.
The Allies, though fighting against Germany, did not undertake any action designed specifically to stop the genocide.
The Holocaust was the period of oppression, incarceration, exploitation and annihilation that was initiated and executed by Nazi Germany and some other Axis countries against people of the Jewish race between 1939 and 1945.
The Holocaust was the attempt to exterminate all the Jews in Europe. This attempt at genocide killed more than 6 million Jews and 5 million others, mainly in death camps, such as Auschwitz and Treblinka and mass open air shootings.
The perpetrators of the horrors that took place during the Holocaust were the Nazis and their allies. The holocaust was the inhuman, mass murder of the Jewish race in Germany.
There are 350,000 survivors of the Holocaust alive today.There are 350,000 experts who just want to be useful with the remainder of their lives.
Theme Song: THE PROMISE ( V'hi Sh'am'da ) was the song in this video. For the HOLY ONE, blessed be He, saves the survivors from their hand. Sung by SHIMON CRAIMER. Music and arrangement by STEPHEN LEVEY.
Lyrics of the Song in English:
V'hi Sh'am'da: The Promise
It is this [promise] that has stood by our fathers and by us,
For it was not one alone who stood against us to destroy us,
But in every generation they stand against us to destroy us,
But the Holy One, blessed be He, saves us from their hand.
Weißrussland: Überreste von rund 600 Holocaust-Opfern in Brest gefunden
In Weißrussland wurde ein Massengrab mit den Überresten von vermutlich etwa 600 jüdischen Männern, Frauen und Kindern gefunden, wie das am Donnerstag aufgenommene Filmmaterial zeigt.
Laut Berichten wurden die Überreste auf einer Baustelle in der Stadt Brest, nahe der polnischen Grenze, freigelegt, wo 28.000 Menschen während des Zweiten Weltkriegs von den Nazis getötet wurden.
Die Skelette zeigen Anzeichen von Schussverletzungen. Vermutlich lebten die Opfer von 1941-1942 in einem Nazi-Ghetto.
Der Kommandant des Spezialisierten Suchbataillons 52, Dmitri Kaminsky, sagte: Wir haben bereits Überreste von 170 Menschen exhumiert, aber es wird noch mehr geben.
Und wir werden nicht gehen, bis wir den letzten Knochen geborgen haben. Wir werden arbeiten, bis wir alle Überreste geborgen haben, fügte er hinzu.
Angeblich wurden im Oktober 1942 in der Nähe des Bahnhofs Bronnaya Gora 17.000 Menschen erschossen, und es wird vermutet, dass Tausende weitere getötet wurden.
