I imagine this might be one of my more controversial opinions or commentaries but here we go. The title of this commentary are the words that were on the entrance gate to Dachau prison camp. They simply mean “Work Will Set You Free”. In reality, the Jews and any other prisoners who walked through those gates eventually were murdered until the U.S Allies freed them from their nightmare.
IN the summer of 1992, my parents and my family visited Dachau prison camp, something that I had read about and my parents had told me about what they had heard about it as they were children during World War II. Our family went to prison camps, cemeteries and war memorials in Germany to pay respects to those who died, both soldier and the true victims of Hitler’s ‘solution’. As we visited Dachau, which is mostly open space with some representative barracks (the originals were full of disease and had to be burned down), the ‘showers’ and the new crematory that thank God, hadn’t been used when the U.S. Troops rescued the inhabitants of the prison.
As we neared the showers and the new crematorium, I could smell what could only be described as the smell of burnt hair but there was more to it. Mind you, this was 1992 and the camp had been liberated on April 29, 1945. I could still smell the smell of dead bodies 47 years after they were killed! Can you imagine the smell in 1945? How did the German citizens not know what was going on with that stench? But what I found so profound was a flower garden near the showers with the blackest soil I had ever seen. It was made of ashes! From those ashes came life! Symbolic of the Jewish people who came back and built the State of Israel in their homeland of their Father Abraham!
I’ve listened to testimony of former concentration camp survivors, read of Treblinka, Auschwitz, Buchenwald, and Ravensbruck (the women’s camp). I’ve read why Hitler wanted to eliminate the Jews from the world and he did a pretty good job of killing 6 MILLION. The reason? Antisemitism, or rather HATRED of a people. After World War II, the world swore they would not forget, yet not quite 80 years later, people around the world are calling for the murder of all the Jewish people in the world, roughly .2% of the world’s population. We are supposedly a civilized society now but calling for the murder of Jews is not civilized. Why are these Antisemites so fearful of the Jews? What is so important for the Land of Israel to be taken from the Jewish people and given to terrorists? Do they fear t he people or do they fear their God who said “I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you.” Do they really believe by murdering all the Jews (and they are targeting Christians next they say) they will get rid of a people’s God?
The United States of America fought to free the Jews and yet the largest protests are coming from New York City where many Jews moved after the war. They built businesses, hired people and New York was prosperous because of them. Yet, we see hate crimes against Jews by those promoting a Palestinian state when there is absolutely NO PROOF from artifacts that proved Palestine even was a true state. Oh sure, the area of Israel was part of an area called Palestine for a short time but it has always been the Land of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Land of the Jews.
Anyone in the United States calling for a two state solution in Israel is wanting terrorists to continue to attack the Jewish state and that cannot continue. Anyone who is an Antisemite should be called out as a person promoting hate crimes. The only way to produce a peaceful Israel State is to get rid of the terrorist organization (a group of people who admit they want to destroy a people).
Israel only seeks to protect its people which also include Arabs and Muslims living in Israel. No other army in the world warns the civilians that they need to evacuate an area so that they can go after the bad guys. Yet Hamas uses women and children as pawns and refuses to let them escape. Well duh! If Hamas refuses to let them go, there are going to be dead women and children! Get your heads out of the sand people!
We already know that Hamas is in the United States, why else would Antisemitism be running wild here? Hamas WILL target Jews in the US and they are going after anyone who supports the Jewish people….Christians! Are you a Christian? Are you ready to die protecting our brothers and sisters of Israel? You better be ready to fight because it is going to happen it is just a matter of time. I stand with Israel, the children of Abraham who were promised to him. Will you stand with them?
