1. Backdated to 1997?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.05.14)
How about backdating to the date they were forced to work for the Nazis? Of course, interest and penalties should be applied as well.
2. Holocaust industry at work ;) ,...
split ,   US   (06.05.14)
Not bad for few months of work for food - There were couple of million of Poles (including my aunt) and other nations citizens removed forcefully from their families and shipped to Reich for slave labor and got nothing I have to work and wait until I'm 65, my neighbor had to serve for 21 years as a cop and my family member as Navy officer ,...
3. No rush, eh?
Jonathan ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (06.06.14)
Why didn't they wait another 70 years, and paid that to their grand-grand-grand children... that would have helped so much more!
4. There's No Business Like Shoah Business
World Citizen ,   the world   (06.06.14)
I wonder how many of these "survivors" were even old enough to remember the ghettos much less work in them.
5. George Eini - I told you once and repeat ,...
split ,   US   (06.07.14)
No one invited you there - Squatters even if tolerated don't own anything so there's nothing to steal from them and nothing to return ,... Get a life ,...
6. By the way George Eini ,...
split ,   US   (06.07.14)
If the Poles reek of anti-Semitism than how come there were more Jews in Poland prior to WWII than the rest of Europe, are they a bunch of brain dead idiots or masochists?. Pick one ,...
7. German Compensation
Claude ,   UK   (06.07.14)
Germany does have a scheme for compensating slave labourers including those from Poland and other occupied countries. A few Channel Islanders forced into Slave Labour have also received compensation. I would like to see a campaign to recognise the plight of the Roma communities and support their claims There is also growing recognition and material with supporting evidence that African forces fighting for France were butchered and stripped of all ID by advancing Nazi troops. Their plight and families left in poverty has never been recognised. No doubt our friend Split would welcome compensation to these groups too. The stench of his anti semitism probably extends to Roma and Blacks. He has pets maybe the Animal Protection Society should be alerted.
8. #5 Poor split aka world sleezebag
Benji ,   US   (06.07.14)
Guess we could say the same to you. No one invited you to the US. You begged for asylum and now you mooch off the US taxpayer while making an ass of yourself on this site.
