2. Tears Came to My Eyes
Dave Levi ,   Burbank. USA   (12.21.06)
Tears almost came to my eyes, when I read this article. I recalled just last week watching 60 Minutes on TV showing 6miles of German records of the Holocaust, and the names of 17m killed or enslaved. That too, made me shed a tear. But now is now. Israel and Diaspora Jewry face a new anti-Semitism, the 21st century variety. The expression "Never again" may be old-fashioned,, a relic from the past. But we should mean it., and tell our enemies, NEVER AGAIN. We will not go like sheep into gas chambers or allowed to become numbers on our arms. Never. No more.

You are a true hero of the jewish people, survivng in moments where it would probably be better to die. You lived and perservered. G*d bless you, you are an incredible person, individual.

5. This story reminds me
Ironcandle ,   Atlanta, GA   (12.21.06)
of what my father used to tell me. He joined the US Army Air Corp in 1945, as soon as he was eligible to fight. He never saw combat, thank God, but he saw plenty of the aftermath. He said those Nazi bastards deserved every bullet and bomb we fired. My hat is off to you, Mr. Michel, anyone who can go through that and still extinguish hatred is a true inspiration. My God smile on you and your family.

May G-d give you health and happiness for the rest of your life. You are an inspiration for so many good people and also, a living memory for Ahmadinejad and his like to understand that the horrors of WWII Holocaust existed.
7. holocaust

That we will never forget what is happened just 60 years ago. I work with these Holocaustsurvivors. For me they are the most precious people.It was not only on that time, it still goes on.Before and after the war.I wait on the moment that the Jewish people can have a life here in Israel, The country where they belong.
