After the Holocaust, Greta searched tirelessly for her brother Walter. A man she knew said he had seen him during one of the death marches. But it was only 72 years later that she discovered the horrific truth: Walter had been brutally murdered along with 19 other children in what became known as Hamburg’s “House of Horrors.”
They survived the death marches as hundreds fell exhausted beside them or were shot by Nazis; Arnold Klebbs, Yosef Farkash and Nathan Leipciger will lead this year's March of the Living marking 80 years since the war's end.
This is the story of Professor Ram Ben-Shalom's discovery and investigation of a remarkable Holocaust document – a letter written by his aunt Salomea Ochs Luft before her murder in 1943. This 12-page letter documented the atrocities committed against Jews in the Tarnopol region of Galicia from 1941-1943.
He was a young boy when taken to Sobibor death camp, where he participated in assassinations of SS men through deceptive operations by camp Jews and became the last Jew to leave there alive.
There is no greater irony than the fact that those seeking to blunt the singularity of antisemitism are themselves anti-Zionist Jews, for whom Holocaust remembrance is not a moral pillar, but a demon. For the sake of the past and the future - we will stand tall and proud in the face of these “enlightened” memory looters and gatekeepers who fell asleep on watch, and we will foil every attempt to defile and dishonor the memory of the Holocaust and its victims.
