Re: [Cz-L] An infamous Czernowitzer

Hi Cornel,
About this question I discussed with my late husband when the train from
Auschwitz to Odessa stopped in Czernowitz, they had no more coal
for the engine...So for 3 weeks the surwiver of the death camp were hosted
in the empty hospital for incurables(Piarne) the ills were deported to death
by the Roumanian.in Transnistria. and par chance I met 4 of these Jewish
women from Holland, one was the friend of Otto, Anne Frank's father. I
invited them to stay with us, 3 of them lived in our appartment 3 weeks and
so we learned for the first time the truth about Auschwitz..They also asked
us this crucial question...Why the American Jews did nothing for us...

The basic fact is that the Allied politicians at first did not believe the
reports coming out of occupied Europe. But a major question does remain to
be answered...once they started understanding what was going on,why did
nobody order simple things like bombing the railway line into Auschwitz,like
sending Fighter-Bombers to attack the watchtowers etc etc.....as the British
sent a squadron of Mosquitos to blow the walls of a French prison to allow
French Resistance prisoners to escape????? Cornel

Dear all,

Yosef Eshet and I had a nice private exchange of mails speculating a bit on
the origin of the family name Ginzburg. I checked the German Wikipedia and
stumbled over an entry on J. G. Burg, born in 1908 as Josef Ginsburg in
Czernowitz. Ginsburg was deported in 1941 to Transnistria. After the war he
moved to Munich where his wife opened a kosher restaurant. In 1949 the
Ginsburg family settled down in Israel but returned to Munich in 1950.

Ginsburg was a listener in the Nuremberg Trials and came to the conclusion
that there was complicity of the Western Allies and the Zionist movement
that enabled the Holocaust. Since the early 60s Ginsburg published
anti-Zionist pamphlets in magazines of the German neo-Nazi movement and
appeared as a defense witness in trials against war criminals and holocaust
deniers. Untill today his writings are praised by right-wing extremists and
give them a chance to blame others for the holocaust. Most of Ginsburg's
books were confiscated by the police but still circulate as vintage copies.

Does it teach something about Czernowitz? I don't think so. We knew before
that Czernowitz was not Camelot - to quote a list member - and not every
Czernowitzer was a saint. Does it teach something about the human nature?
No, we already knew there is a wide range of misguided characters in the
world.

Christian
