The Israeli hostages are being abused, starved, burned, raped by Hamas terrorists. They are neglected by the media and by the International Red Cross. Checkout this article "<a href="http://timesofisrael.com/relative-of-freed-captives-say-hamas-branded-child-hostages-in-case-they-escaped">timesofisrael.com/relative-of-freed-captives-say-hamas-branded-child-hostages-in-case-they-escaped</a>. The Israeli Biba babies are still missing – a 9 month old and 2 yr old, whereabouts unknown. Posters of hostages ripped down or defaced by hateful Hamas supporters in our cities and on our college campuses.</div><div><br /></div><div>It's so important to get your news from multiple perspectives and to recognize skewed and anti-Israel broadcasting, especially what remains unspoken. When I turned on Channel 2 News, a few days after retaliatory strikes had begun against Hamas by the IDF, I shuttered when I heard the female broadcaster state that there were "<i>heavy casualties on both sides</i>". There is no excuse for equating the unprovoked brutal slaughter of innocent Israelis, including women and children, with the causalities of war in Gaza, which includes terrorists and are mostly overstated by Hamas. <br /><br /></div><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px;"><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px;"><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgdRF1LNmS5FxJ6FhTFeLst0S5McN4a1sUftb9kJMnYa29FOJPyu9TSIb3tNVzrCrnKruKwAt_Puw91lEMI06Pq9NUOBcBd3m5aoH6LDUvNBIU4CJmlOfQvCdDvObjwfcT-RvKI6nzIrhmCOUjAYEoFtUfBYA3OpFk_xYeWtw81IFRwpbKAo_JRPt-8YNm9" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="" data-original-height="700" data-original-width="1186" height="246" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgdRF1LNmS5FxJ6FhTFeLst0S5McN4a1sUftb9kJMnYa29FOJPyu9TSIb3tNVzrCrnKruKwAt_Puw91lEMI06Pq9NUOBcBd3m5aoH6LDUvNBIU4CJmlOfQvCdDvObjwfcT-RvKI6nzIrhmCOUjAYEoFtUfBYA3OpFk_xYeWtw81IFRwpbKAo_JRPt-8YNm9=w417-h246" width="417" /></a></div></blockquote></blockquote><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhRQL6iSCCR1S1IvLHOfzVm3N7xTADKbGvX9lPP6EEjzXSWLHRAw0CrXm6J9gzgJ4e3vZ7uzCmUumkQ82oj9BGM_fgzhbYLPq6gGU8OeMCA6wli_sSPW__v4V_Ig7IEk_rSlsRPEwT313shbyMMVqUYtGl4UTSM6EF_f3q3c5zbwdTzScId3AtlyYSRhokX" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="348" data-original-width="938" height="190" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhRQL6iSCCR1S1IvLHOfzVm3N7xTADKbGvX9lPP6EEjzXSWLHRAw0CrXm6J9gzgJ4e3vZ7uzCmUumkQ82oj9BGM_fgzhbYLPq6gGU8OeMCA6wli_sSPW__v4V_Ig7IEk_rSlsRPEwT313shbyMMVqUYtGl4UTSM6EF_f3q3c5zbwdTzScId3AtlyYSRhokX=w511-h190" width="511" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></div><p><b>Conditions Leading Up to & Following Oct 7th - under Biden</b></p><p>Since Biden took office, the world has been in disarray: Beginning with the disastrous debacle in Afghanistan. The weapons we left behind, were used by Hamas in their recent Oct 7th massacre of Israeli civilians. Biden, Blinken, & Sullivan resumed funding the Iranian Regime and removed all sanctions against them, enacted during Trump's administration. After Oct7th, Instead of putting the focus on getting Hamas to surrender and release all the hostages, Biden is trying to control Israel – telling Bibi Netanyahu to cease fighting in Southern Gaza, and to allow the Palestinian Authority control. Biden has done nothing to sanction COLLEGEs that promote pro-HAMAS rallies. Biden is not a true friend of the Jewish people or the Jewish State. </p><p>Biden continues endangering our own US citizens by keeping our Southern border wide open, welcoming Hamas terrorists into this country. Trump had our border secured and the wall was almost completely built. Biden is focused on appeasing the far-left Jew-haters in his Democratic Party <a href="https://jinsa.org/biden-and-co-funding-palestinian-terror/ " target="_blank">jinsa.org/biden-and-co-funding-palestinian-terror/ </a> </p><p><br /></p><p><b>FIGHTING the FALSE NARRATIVES against the JEWISH STATE</b></p><p>Regarding the pro-Palesine rallies, <a href="https://www.theblaze.com/news/ron-desantis-israel-hamas-students-terrorism-visas">theblaze.com/news/ron-desantis-israel-hamas-students-terrorism-visas</a>, Ron DeSantis described them, "If you look at how they behave, not all of them are Hamas, but they are all anti-Semitic."

A</span><span style="font-family: georgia;">ccording to</span><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="font-size: 13px;"> </span>The Center for Responsive Politics, executives at Big Tech firms have shown their bias towards Democrats through their donations of millions to 2020 Democratic candidate campaigns. They have also conspired against rival Conservatives, using smear campaigns and deplatforming, including former President Trump and Conservative Parler.</span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">Big Tech uses sophisticated algorithms to censor what <i>they</i> decide is hate speech. Much of their Artificial Intelligence technology was developed originally by the Chinese Communist Party to stifle political dissent. Just like in a Communist regime, any debate that would challenge our government's Marxist-based ideology can not be tolerated. Truth is their enemy. </span></p><div><span style="font-family: georgia;">Marxists refer to their movements and ideologies using euphemistic terms, such as "Progressives", "Democratic Socialists", "Antifa", "Black Lives Matter" (BLM), "the Squad", "Critical Race Theory" (CRT). Their ultimate goal is a one-party left-wing autocracy. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;">Our Marxist media thrives on exploiting a crises. I watched the news repeat the image of George Floyd's last moments, everyday. Everyday the media reinforced the narrative of systemic racism in the police force, by exploiting this one incident, fanning the flames of hatred against the police in order to divide us, inciting riots during summer 2020. However, when a Black cop shot a White protester, Ashley Babitt, on 1/6/21, the media avoided any mention of it.... that Black cop was later celebrated as a hero. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></div><div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;">Levin is appalled by the disparity of our justice system. The violent BLM/ Antifa rioters from last summer were not apprehended. VP Harris funded bail for those who were. Our radical left government supports and protects these violent Antifa rioters. Antifa.com website is a portal to our own whitehouse.gov. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;">Mark Levin gave kudos to Governor DeSantis for filling in where our government is negligent. For example, the open border crisis has resulting in millions of unvetted illegal immigrants being bused throughout the US, including Florida. DeSantis has redirected those busses to DC. When our government ignores violent Antifa, DeSantis responded by issuing a law making violence during a protest a felony, thereby increasing penalties in the State of Florida.</span><span style="font-family: georgia;"> </span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></div></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><i>The press has incredible power to move people. </i>If only the media used their power for good. If they had repeated images of Hitler's brutality during the Holocaust, maybe then American citizens would have pressured our government to increase immigration quota for Jewish refugees? The NY Times hid any mention of the horrors of the Holocaust deep in the middle of the paper. It should have been persistent, front page, prime time coverage. </span></div><div><br /></div>Beverly Margolieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10447833383381266321noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-492443915413457029.post-19286592145942856012022-05-23T00:49:00.004-04:002022-09-05T20:32:42.225-04:00My Top 10 Lists of LINKS - Do your own digging for the facts - here are helpful sites! <p>Biden's chaos and crises - baby formula crisis, border crisis, gas price surges, exponential inflation, his declining cognitive mental state, & more.

Why aren’t alleged organizers and instigators being charged when people who seem to have been little more than tourists are facing years in prison?</div></div></div><p></p>
According to Mark Levin of Life, Liberty and Levin, our government is rounding up these political opponents. Just the word "<a href="https://bootupnow.blogspot.com/2012/04/dangerous-times-roundups-in-paris-1941.html" target="_blank">round-ups</a>" strikes terror in my heart. Along with rampant propaganda and censorship, this is what makes up a Totalitarian government.
These round-up operations are secretive. This <a href="https://alaskawatchman.com/2021/04/29/with-guns-drawn-fbi-raids-homer-couples-home-looking-for-nancy-pelosis-laptop/">article describes how FBI agents targeted a couple in Alaska</a>, just one example of these round-ups.<div><br />
During the May 2020 insurrection in Minnesota, BLM Antifa thugs burned a police station to the ground. Those thugs don’t need to worry, Kamala has funded their bail. Antifa and BLM violence is sanctioned by our administration. It is part of their plan to instill chaos in our cities, while defunding the police. Like Greg Kelley says, BLM and MSM only care when a black life is taken by a white cop…. in order to perpetuate their systemic racism and anti-police agenda.<p>
To make sense of what is happening in our country, I reached out to Professor Kyong (Keith) Chu, Chair of the History Department at Bergen Community College. Here is his response…
“It's mind boggling to me that this is happening in our nation. The partisanship and hatred is really ruining our democracy. It seems to me that its always been there as a kind of pilot light just waiting for the right moment to ignite into something bigger …I just hope it doesn't take a catastrophic event for everyone to see the truth”

If you are dark-skinned you are oppressed. If you are light-skinned you are labelled an oppressor. If my parents were alive today, they would be labelled oppressors, despite the fact that they were Holocaust survivors. What happened to the teachings of Martin Luther King? We should be judged based on our character, not our skin color. One of my favorite MLK quotes applies here, <i>“Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.”</i>
Historical facts should be taught; slavery, the Holocaust, etc. Many students do not even know there was a Holocaust!
Instead of teaching CRT’s hateful rhetoric, we should be teaching the Holocaust, not just 2 hours or a single day, but a full curriculum. </div><div>I am heartened by the courageous, ferocious parents who stand up for their children against this hateful rhetoric…in front of their school boards.

In addition, the bill mandates diversity of thought on college campuses, to prevent leftist indoctrination and intolerance of dissenting viewpoints. <a href="http://dailywire.com/news/media-melts-down-over-desantis-latest-action-on-colleges-panics-as-he-rises-to-top-of-gop" target="_blank">Read article in Dailywire news</a>.<div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="background-color: #cff4ef; color: #20124d;">FAKE NEWS - Mainstream Media (MSM) </span></b></h3><div>
Our country has become so polarized. I can’t even discuss the issues with my colleagues on the left as they are ignorant of the facts. They only listen to and believe what the mainstream media is feeding them. MSM censors anything that does not fit their Democratic Socialist narrative of systemic racism.
You have to seek out alternative news sites like OAN, NewsMaxx, Fox News, Daily Wire, Prager U, legalinsurrection.com etc. to get the full story and to hear the truth about Israel, election laws, CRT etc. MSM Stations like CBS, NBS, ABC, CNN, MSNBC promote the far left, anti-Israel, anti-American viewpoint. They are the propaganda arm of the Democratic Socialist movement. </div><div><br /></div><div><i>If we don't speak up we are complicit.</i> When I post on Facebook, however, I get attacked. </div><div>Here is a typical example of stupidity after I exposed the truth about CRT on FB:

NM (leftist): Beverly you’re wrong that crt is either bad or Marxist. <i>And it’s surely based on facts.</i> Your argument is not.
That’s some bs site, not real news. The facts are we have a history of systemic racism in our country, and we should teach that. The rest is you having a tantrum, I guess cuz you don’t want White children to learn racism exists

It does not matter the site posted, the woman's speech went viral and you should listen to it. <i><b>Some people can't tolerate a different viewpoint and choose to attack me instead.</b></i>
I think we should be teaching about how propaganda and censorship led to the Holocaust and now the Uighur genocide.
</li><li>NM: we do teach that. We should also be teaching systemic racism exists and that it leads to the killing of unarmed black people, hence the need for the BLM movement. Teaching about racism in schools is neither propaganda nor censorship. Now you’re like just making up words.
</li><li>ME: you should do some research on BLM. You will find that it an Anti-Semitic Marxist organization, that is embezzling funds.

He was falsely accused of Russia collusion and relentlessly bullied. He was portrayed as a monster white-supremacist, because he put America first; never any acknowledgement of his monumental successes. Trump’s “Operation Warp Speed” developed a CoVid vaccine in 10 months, despite being told it was impossible. As mentioned in my prior post, his administration negotiated the historic Abraham Accords, achieving peace between Israel and its Arab neighbors. December, 2019, he passed the new <a href="https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/trumps-executive-order-raises-tough-issue-of-defining-prejudice">Anti-Semitism Definition</a> to protect Jewish college students. (Details saved <a href="http://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/presidential-actions/executive-order-combating-anti-semitism">trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/presidential-actions/executive-order-combating-anti-semitism</a> ). He hired Nikki Haley, the first Ambassador to the UN, to courageously stand up for Israel, against the anti-Israel bias in the UN. Haley also stood up against their pro-Hamas resolutions. She referred to her inaugural role as “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CherkB4XsBk">the new sheriff in town</a>”. According to Mike Kelley of NewsMax –“ ISIS was born under Obama and obliterated by Trump… Trump brought ISIS down.” No other president achieved what Trump and his administration did in just four years. </div><div><br /></div><div>Just like Obama, we only hear accolades for Biden regardless of his actions, from MSM. Hannity described the media’s treatment of Biden as their “candidate protection program”. MSM is silent about the Biden family dealings with Communist China. MSM Journalists no longer do any research. They only attack or silence their adversaries. They agitate and bully Trump and Republicans.

Ron DeSantis responds to an aggressive CNN reporter.</a><br /><br /><b>ANTIFA RIOTS<br /></b></div><div>Back in June, 2020, after violent BLM/Antifa mobs burned down a Minneapolis Police Station, Kamala Harris responded with , “This is a movement…They are not going to stop and they should NOT”. Antifa bombed and burned cities. Over 7 months of BLM/Antifa riots in Democratic cities, resulted in 45 innocent citizens killed, 700 police officers injured, small businesses looted and destroyed, 150 federal buildings damaged, defaced, burned. Instead of outrage, Democrats empowered these thugs. Kamala funded their bail. <a href="http://www.antifa.com">www.antifa.com </a>is a redirect to Biden’s <a href="http://whitehouse.gov">whitehouse.gov</a> .</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">According to <a href="https://dailytorch.com/2021/01/exposing-democrat-hypocrisy-over-political-violence/">DailyTorch 1/21/2021 article “Exposing Democrat Hypocrisy over Political Violence”</a>, “Democrats who encouraged and funded the Antifa, BLM rioters for most of the past year, wasted no time exploiting the Capitol attack for political gain." In Biden’s inaugural address he characterized 75 million Trump fans as domestic terrorists, Neo-Nazis, & fascists. Biden incited his fellow leftists to track down Trump supporters. This is not unity; this is the KGB. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b>The CAPITAL 1/06/2021</b> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">They blamed Trump for inciting the handful of thugs who stormed the capital. In his speech Trump called for “peaceful” protests. The media censored that video and Twitter & Facebook deleted his accounts, disconnecting him from his people: We the People. Renowned lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, refers to this as McCarthyism. According to Mark Levin of “Life, Liberty, & Levin”, the FBI knew of the attack, days prior and did nothing. <br /><br />John Earle Sullivan, a radical self-described “revolutionary” who founded a group called “Insurgence USA,” was arrested and charged with planning and inciting a riot amid the heavy pro-Trump crowd at the U.S. Capitol. He was one of many radical leftist and Antifa infiltrators who blended into the crowd. Sullivan was seen on video shouting to a crowd, over a microphone, “we about to burn this shit down,” “we got to rip Trump out of office".

Remember the historical parallels. From 1927 – 1933 Germany went from Democracy to a 1-party Nazi system, censoring all dissenting political views. Nazi Propaganda was everywhere. </div><div><br /></div><div><div>Isn’t that what is happening here, now? Leftist propaganda as delivered by MSM, newspapers, social-ist media…<i>Our MSM is the propaganda arm of the Democratic party</i>. According to Mike Pompeo “Censorship, wokeness, political correctness, it all points in one direction – authoritarianism, cloaked as moral righteousness." Nikki Haley stated, “From college classrooms to corporate boardrooms, … liberal elites want to silence anyone who does not toe the far left line." Freedom of speech has been compromised, replaced by fake news and censorship.<br /><br /></div><div>For historical perspective, these quotes come from <a href="https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/nazi-propaganda-and-censorship" target="_blank">USHMM </a>article on Nazi-propaganda-and-censorship:</div></div></div></div><blockquote style="border: medium none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;"><div><div style="text-align: left;">“When the Nazis came to power in 1933, the German constitution guaranteed freedom of speech and freedom of the press…The Nazis controlled all forms of communication through censorship and propaganda… By the middle of 1933, the Nazi Party was the only political party, and nearly all organized opposition to the regime had been eliminated.

I recently watched the Netflix documentary “<a href="https://www.today.com/video/netflix-documentary-the-social-dilemma-unveils-psychological-manipulation-used-by-social-networks-92775493909" target="_blank">The Social Dilemma</a>”. Facebook (FB) was portrayed as a powerful puppeteer, feeding into whatever view the user is leaning towards. If a FB user was leaning left, soon FB was feeding them radical leftist propaganda and conspiracy theories: Whatever strategies would hold the user as a captive audience, and gain the most “likes”. Truth has become irrelevant. We are living in George Orwell’s 1984. Your FB feed is bred by FB, to <i>confirm</i> your view of reality, <i>not</i> to challenge it.<div> </div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxaU7UG7TA_m_BScZfWLv6YduoReaCRY6b3vC2jLC-AGPT0QJI712-fvEZOi0MNQcFG1GapEQhBZslw5MzJFMVyJ6bUllYP7n8KDvWnumpRyZhwTeTu1nzmGqWNJKT2t1dtWPyMcTv8Fl-/s637/meme-freespeech.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="479" data-original-width="637" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxaU7UG7TA_m_BScZfWLv6YduoReaCRY6b3vC2jLC-AGPT0QJI712-fvEZOi0MNQcFG1GapEQhBZslw5MzJFMVyJ6bUllYP7n8KDvWnumpRyZhwTeTu1nzmGqWNJKT2t1dtWPyMcTv8Fl-/s320/meme-freespeech.png" width="320" /></a></div><br />FB, Google, YouTube and other social media platforms are silencing conservative voices and allowing hate speech and fake news to proliferate. <a href="https://youtu.be/jMk2yzWGu0o" target="_blank">Prager University videos have been banned for presenting a conservative perspective</a>. Anti-Zionist and anti-Israel propaganda have become mainstream, accepted, normalized. In a prior post from my blog, in May 2017, I wrote about the destructive forces of propaganda against Israel, perpetrated by the Palestinians and leftist media, <a href="http://bootupnow.blogspot.com/2017/05/anti-israel-propaganda-prevents-peace.html " target="_blank">bootupnow.blogspot.com/2017/05/anti-israel-propaganda-prevents-peace.html </a></div><div><br /></div><div>President Trump recently negotiated the Abraham accord, the first viable peace agreement between Israel and its Arab neighbors, in 30 years. Finally, a president who sees the Palestinian threat for what it is, slanderous to Israel’s reputation world-wide, run by the terrorist organization, Hamas. Pallywood, the Palestinian theatrical media, produces fake episodes portraying Israeli military (IDF) as violent aggressors. The media promotes this biased view as truth. Prior administrations have tried to appease the Palestinians, asking Israel to make concessions and give up their land in exchange for peace. These offers of land for peace were always refused by the Palestinians. According to a recent <a href="https://www.daily-journal.com/opinion/columnists/ben-shapiro-the-remaking-of-the-middle-east/article_e7444be6-e214-11ea-a64f-bb79ab97b8ac.html" target="_blank">Ben Shapiro Daily Wire article-"<span style="font-family: Manuale, serif; font-size: 16px;">Relations between Jordan and Israel, between the UAE and Israel, between Sudan and Israel, between Egypt and Israel — none now hide behind the fig leaf of Palestinian demands to avoid peace."</span></a></div><div><br /></div><div>Trump stands by Israel and the Jewish people. When pro-Israel students are harassed on campus, there is no outrage. The media is silent.
In Dec, 2019, President Trump's executive order declared anti-Zionism a form of anti-Semitism, and
added Antisemitism to the list of discriminations prohibited by Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. </div><div><br /></div><div>People ask me why I care so much about Israel. When Israel is slandered, I take it personally. Israel is the Jewish State, the Jewish homeland. If you criticize Israel’s policies and do NOT criticize Syria’s, Iran’s, or other fascists regimes in the MidEast, then your criticism is anti-Semitism. </div><div><br /></div><div>I deal with colleagues, professors at the community college I work at, who admit that they hate Zionists. When a close colleague told me this, I was very hurt. A Zionist is someone who loves Israel. Since when did Zionism become a dirty word? I blame the media for portraying Israel negatively by repeating these inciteful words: occupier, colonial, in reference to Israel. Israel is not an occupier, since Israel is, and always was, the historic Jewish homeland. The Jews are indigenous to the land of Israel. The British Mandate of Palestine returned the land of Israel to the Jews, in a legal process. Any Arab Bedouins living on the land at that time, in 1948, were paid fairly for their property by the Zionists. </div><div><br /></div><div>My colleagues believe what the media and other academics have fed them. It’s not only what the media covers, it’s what the media refuses to cover.
How many people know about the more than 2500 acres of farmland and 2700 acres of forest <i>burned</i> by fire bombs and incendiary balloons launched by the Palestinians from Gaza. What about the terror tunnels and murder of innocent Israeli civilians by Hamas? As soon as Israel is accused of some alleged crime, it is all over the news. What about when Israel comes to our rescue, to help us fight fires in California? How often do you see media coverage of Israel in a positive light? </div><div><br /></div><div>The most righteous thing someone can do, is to speak up for someone else. The gentiles who risked their lives to defend my parents from the Nazis, there is nothing higher, more revered to me. Trump defending Israel and Zionist students on college campuses, deserves the same respect and admiration. Trump threatened to withhold federal funds from colleges promoting Anit-Israel hate propaganda. No other president has ever addressed it or tried to stop it. Hate coming from the right and neo-NAZIs, is readily disavowed. But not from the left. Anti-Semitism & Anti-Zionisn in the Democaratic party has proliferated and does not seem to abate. The Democratic Party remains politically correct, refusing to disavow Anti-Semitism in their own party. </div>Beverly Margolieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10447833383381266321noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-492443915413457029.post-25416879512316210972020-01-01T17:20:00.000-05:002020-01-01T19:20:09.862-05:00Transcribing my Dad's Story from pencil...Happy New Year 2020! On this blog I have often posted excerpts from my dad's story "In His Own Words." <br />
<br />
Sometime in the late 1990's, my dad completed writing his memoir, more than 150 pages handwritten in pencil. When he first handed me his manuscript, he watched as I inspected it. One of the entries in his Table of Contents was "experience". I turned to the page and began reading. I was not expecting that "experience" referred to his first sexual experience, his visit to a brothel! <br />
<br />
I knew I needed to preserve his story, electronically on my computer. So I began the process of transcribing and entering his words into Word Perfect. I did some wordsmithing and editing to tweak his English. In one chapter he describes the increasingly threatening conditions in Paris 1942 as "titanium". It took me a while to realize he was referring to the state of chaos, or "pandemonium."<br />
<br />
To this day I refer back to details in his story to help me track our family tree. My dad diligently detailed names of cousins, their occupations, locations in Poland, street addresses in Paris. The street addresses were a key clue in connecting a name in a database as a cousin.<br />
<br />
My dad wrote that cousins Albert and Maurice Binstock moved into his parents' apartment on Rue Fessart. For many years I tried to track down these two cousins in documents online. During my 2011 visit to the USHMM research floor I copied all ITS records for Binstock of Bedzin or Paris. Finally I discovered a Mordka Binstock with the same address listed for Rue Fessart & immediately I knew I had found my "Maurice." It wasn't till 2014 that I connected with his living descendant, Remy, through Twitter. <br />
<br />
I could write an entire miniseries just from the stories that were
passed down. The survivor witnesses, each with their own unique story of
survival: my mom, my aunts, my uncle, my cousins. <br />
<br />
My next step is to get my dad's story published in a book, to share with the world. My dad would want his name as the writer. I can put my name as editor. Not sure how to begin the process.<br />

<h3>
<b>Nathalie's dad - David Szbrenic</b></h3>
At the beginning of the war, 1940, David enlisted in the French army & was imprisoned in Germany. When
his rank was captured, the German commandant instructed all Jewish
prisoners to step out of line. David complied. The German officer approached him and told him to "Stop fooling
around". David's Aryan looks had saved
him. <br />
<br />
<h3>
<b>Nathalie's </b>mom <span class="FL_LabelLargeBold" style="font-size: 18px;">- Chaja Sura (Helen) Srebrnik (born Binsztok):</span></h3>
During
the day Helen was working at M. Strausberg's atelier. October 1943, the
French police came in the night to capture Helen,
who tried to escape and ran downstairs into the street, but she could
not
fight with the policemen who sent her to Drancy, and Auschwitz.
Upon her arrival, she was chosen to work. April 1945, Helen returned in
very bad shape, but alive. She had survived Auschwitz, liberated by
American soldiers.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3>
Nathalie's sister - Rose</h3>
A couple of days before Nathalie's mom's capture, her sister Rosette (born 1937) had been taken away by a
gentile woman, Madeleine Gallois living in a small village, Grisy les Platres. Nathalie's maternal uncle Albert Binsztok knew Madelaine because he had sent his daughter Nicole to spend holiday with her in Grizy... (near Pontoise, near Paris). Fortunately, Madeline Gallois' daughter rescued Rose two days after La Rafle and just one day before her mom's capture. Madeline's mother was a nurse and already had cousins Fanny and Lucienne Lerner to
take care. Thanks to the Gallois', Nathalie's sister remained alive.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, Fanny and Lucienne were deported in August 1942, shortly after their mother Madelaine, returned for them. She could not bear to be without them. Fanny was sent on convoy 16 August 7, 1942, and Lucienne on convoy 24, August 26, 1942 along with cousin Robert Binzstock. The three small children were murdered in the gas chambers.<br />

Liliane Strausberg invited me for holiday with her and her daughter Catherine, in a small port town near Nantes (Pornic) France. It was a vacation and also a genealogical mission. <br />
<br />
I brought the FamilyTree DNA kit for Catherine to take... to help her track down her dad's half-sibling. Back in March 2015 I had relayed the story my mom told me about Catherine's paternal grandma, Jeanette Karetchsky Sztrausberg. Jeanette came to France from England when she was unwed and pregnant. My dad's parents helped Jeanette put the baby up for adoption in Paris & kept it a secret. I am hoping that the DNA results from Catherine's sample could connect us to this lost child's family, who may not be aware of their Jewish heritage. <br />
<br />
<b>Lilianne's Story:</b><br />
I videotaped Lilianne sharing testimony from her childhood during the Holocaust. Her father had been taken by the French police and never returned, leaving Lilianne as a toddler, alone with her mother in Paris. One day the French police came for them. "Madame you must come with us". Lilianne's mom Sonia Linderman Konkowksi told them "I need more time, I will give you all my money". They took the money and warned that they would return. Sonia took little Liliane to hide in the cellar for the whole day. At night Sonia ventured back to the apartment to get some food. She overheard voices in her apartment, speaking Flemish. Her Uncle Menachem Konkowski, her mothers brother, had sent them to smuggle Liliane and her mom out of France, to safety in Belgium. Liliane survived the Shoah in Belgium in hiding with her three cousins: Henriette 7, Rene 5, Claudine 3.<br />
<br />
Lilianne knew my parents and my Aunt Claire. She retold the terrifying ordeal my Aunt shared of getting stuck under a train during her clandestine escape across the border at the Vierzon train station in 1942. The train began to roll as my Aunt was left frozen in place lying between the rails and train wheels. <br />
<br />
Lilianne also shared her concern that her granddaughter Justine was disconnected from her Jewish heritage. Justine did not consider herself Jewish and was trying to hide it. I felt that if she knew her family's story, she would not be ashamed. Her grandmother's uncle, Menachem Konkowski was the hero of her family and also a nationally recognized hero of Belgium. His brigade committed many acts of sabotage against the Nazis in Belgium. He also saved many Jewish family members and children, including Liliane, with his factory as a front. I showed Justine a Facebook post of the <br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC8Ub7hdfKFwtVC7A8KOEueUpFIHuPR_eR8Y-V4is7HhLJpNQYrooOJwmeucA8Yf6vJcR6gxDJQrunBfIcBTRdTmFqCSZx3yRdFmD4eggtipsbox64RP0uoANKm7zzdKYvXexSPgcFFofR/s1600/konkowski-letter.jpg" target="_blank">commendation letter from President Eisenhower</a> to Konkowski. I also showed her the family tree. The Shoah and what happened to her family should not be a source of shame.<br />
<br />
Lilianne and I also went to meet Simonne Nathalie Sebrenick. I had connected with Nathalie late 2014. It was quite amazing that I discovered Nathalie through Remy, her nephew. He followed me on Twitter. I don't know how he found me or why he followed me. I believe it to be beshert, fate. I had been searching for family on my dad's side and <i>they</i> found <i>me</i> online; <a href="http://jewishgen.blogspot.com/2010/11/success.html" target="_blank">first Yael on JewishGen</a> and then Remy. Remy was not even looking for me. <br />
<br />
Nathalie lives in a medieval chateau in Huile, France, about 2 hours from Catherine, near Angers. For someone going through chemotherapy she looked amazing, young. She loves classical music, her 3 dogs and her 3 horses. Her dogs are named after classical music/ musicians: Amadeus the beagle, Fantasia the Labrador, Barcarole the Schnauzer. Since her husband Claude Chuteau died she lives in this big chateaux alone with her dogs.<br />
<br />
<b>Nathalie's Story:</b><br />
She shared some old photos and heart-wrenching stories. The violin story stands out: Nathalie wanted to play the piano since she was 4 years old. But her parents were against it, wanting her to focus on your schooling. One day she told a teacher that she could not have a piano. The teacher suggested a smaller instrument. When Nathalie found a broken violin in her basement she showed her father to ask to play. He was enraged. It turned out the violin belonged to her young cousins Fanny & Lucienne Lerner, the sisters were music child prodigies. They were deported from Paris and sent to the gas chambers; The loss of those precious children and their musical gifts never shared with the world. The murder of these children were now more real and tragic. I discovered their picture on the <a href="https://phdn.org/archives/holocaust-history.org/klarsfeld/French%20Children/html&graphics/T0951.shtml" target="_blank">Serge Klarsfeld site</a>.

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">In
Sept., 2011, I connected with Diane Davison through JewishGen. We were both
searching our Binsztok from Bedzin, Polish roots.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>According to the Bedzin census there were
four Binsztok families living there in 1939. Diane shared with me that her
Great Grandma was Marja Bienstock Konkowski.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Most of her family settled in Brussels. She also had cousins in<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Paris and Canada. Whatever she knew was based on conversations
she had with her mom’s two cousins, daughters of Marja and Josek Zelman
Konkowski: Lilianne in Paris and Renee in Canada.
<br /> </span><br />
<span style="mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">We did not know how we connected. When I connected with Marilyn, I was able to confirm
we were cousins with the Y-DNA test, because we shared the Bienstock surname
through our fathers. My brother Claude matched Marilyn’s father with a distance
of 0. That meant that Marilyn and I were related within 4 generations. With Diane the connection was on her
mother’s side.</span>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Diane
and I shared and compared<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>old family
photos.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I had a photo from 1920 of my
dad’s Aunt Sheindle with her family.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>On
the back my dad wrote “all killed in the Holocaust”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Diane was convinced that this was a photo of her great grandparents,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Josek and Marja (Bienstock) Konkowski. The
older boy was her grandfather Menachem (Maurice), the younger boy her great uncle Adolphe, and the girl was her
great aunt Sonya. Sonya’s daughter, Lilianne, was living in France. The resemblance was undeniable.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Diane
posted a photo of her ancestor Josek Konkowski.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Again, he looked like Sheindle’s husband.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>All photo clues pointed to my Sheindl
Bienstock as a match with Diane’s Marja Bienstock Konkowski . In my 2<sup>nd</sup>

mother: <span class="hascaption">Hana Malka Szajndel Kownkowski.</span></span></div>

Jean. Unfortunately as they were crossing the demarcation line into
the free zone, the Germans spotted them. They ran as fast as
they could. Jean and his father made it, but Jeanette did
not. They caught her and she was never seen again. It was
a terrible thing. Mr. Strausberg and his son found a room to rent in
Ceyroux. Later they received some work from Paris and were able to
survive the rest of the war. Occasionally Marie worked for Max as a seamstress.</span></div>

<h3>
<b>Heroes who saved my family during Holocaust </b></h3>
<ol>
<li><b>My dad, Jack Bienstock</b> - It was his ego, so humiliated by having to wear the "Juif" star, he insisted on leaving Paris immediately, within days of the edict. Timing was key, since the final solution -"la grande rafle - the big roundups", had begun June/ July 1942. My dad, left Paris just days before his 21st birthday on July 1, 1942. It was my dad who convinced the rest of the family to follow him to Ceyroux. "Mon pere etait le hero de ma famille parce que c'etait lui qui dit les mots, l'address de Ceyroux." <a href="https://youtu.be/zxn6UdNU9sE" target="_blank">Hear him tell his story on youtube.com/bevmargo.</a></li>
<li><b>The cheminot from Vierzon - </b>This hero lived and worked in Vierzon, one of the largest railroad stations, strategically located on the boundary between zones. He gave his life for the lives of desperate Jewish families. He smuggled my dad, my mom, my aunt, & countless others onto coal trains headed south to the Free zone, "la zone libre". My dad did not know this hero's name & often referred to him as the "cheminot", French for railroad worker. </li>
<li><b>French resistance fighter,</b> <b>Albert Mayne</b>. He provided the house in Ceyroux Les Brisseau, where my parents and grandparents lived in hiding for two years. My dad did not know who owned the house he was renting. Mayne's daughter Bernadette, who I met at the Yad Vashem ceremony 12/4/2017, still lives there today.</li>
<li><b>Parcelier and Simonnet families</b> - farmers also members of the resistance. Alice Meillassoux was a bicycle courier for the <b>Maqui</b>, the resistance of the woods. These families also provided an occupation on the farm and made Ceyroux-Les Brisseaux home for them for two years.</li>
<li><b>Mayor Leon Daquet </b>- provided my dad with a new Identity card to disguise his Jewish identity, changing his name from "Jacob Joseph" to Jacques and his occupation from printer to cultivateur, farmer. </li>
</ol>
<h3>
Some heroes of today:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Nicki Haley - Ambassador to the UN - fights for Israel</li>
<li>Alan Dershowitz - speaks up against Anti-Israel hate groups</li>
<li>Ben Shapiro - outspoken journalist</li>
<li>Brigitte Gabriel - Lebanese author of "Because They Hate" </li>
<li>Ryan Bellerose- Native American who fights for the indigenous rights of the Jewish people to the land of Israel.</li>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
The recording is 55 minutes long, too big to upload to YouTube. I will be extracting and sharing 1-minute portions here. So, please check back to this post. I will post excerpts like I did with the 3 hour Steven Spielberg videos on my <a href="http://youtube.com/bevmargo" target="_blank">youtube/<i>bevmargo</i> channel</a>.<br />

2. In this next Facebook video clip, my mom describes seeing her little sister Henny for the first time after 7 years. She describes how confused my Tata Henny was, just learning that she was Jewish in 1945. She was 2 years old when she was sent to Switzerland. She grew up with the name Evi and parents who loved her. She only discovered the truth of who she really was after liberation and a 1-year custody battle.</div>

It's nice to have a central place in the country for the great-grandchildren of Israel Isaac and Leah Kaplan to gather on Little Red Kill Road, Fleischmanns, NY. My mother-in-law was Elaine Kaplan. Cousin Ellis Tobin wrote an article 5 years ago for the 100th anniversary reunion in <a href="http://www.catskillmountainnews.com/news/2012-06-20/News/100th_Anniversary_of_Kaplan_Farm.html">www.catskillmountainnews.com/news/2012-06-20</a><br />

I wonder if I had a reunion to meet my cousins found in diaspora..... Australia, France, Israel, Belgium, London, US, Canada... where would we hold it, what would be an easily accessible central location? Israel & France are central to US and Australia.

My <a href="http://s4.goeshow.com/iajgs/annual/2017/profile.cfm?profile_name=session&master_key=69FF6D00-FA77-61A6-E635-4008E2F2DB3E&page_key=BC7B8309-E75F-C818-DF1A-9FDCFA905071&xtemplate&userLGNKEY=0" target="_blank">Facebook for Collaborative Family History Research</a> was well attended. One attendee asked me why I did not use Facebook groups for storing my albums. I wish I knew about them when I started with Facebook back in 2008. <br />
<br />
Some highlights from IAJGS sessions I attended: <br />
<br />
Tammy Hepp's session, Cousin Bait, described ways to lure & respond to family with social media. I have been successful with this, since this blog & my YouTube channel were both instrumental in allowing unknown cousins to find me: Erwan Grandais found my video of TonTon. Tammy found photos of her family on Flicker, with Google. I googled "Bienstock family" and discovered https://www.genealogytoday.com/surname/finder.mv?Surname=Bienstock. Another Google search format to try: "site:website.com keyword ". <br />
<br />
Linda Levy presented on Jewish Joint Distribution Committee; <a href="http://archives.jdc.org/" target="_blank">archives.JDC.org </a>holds 80,000 index cards for 1945 Displaced Persons camps. 1914-74 is searchable online. I learned that the Dominican Republic accepted 700 Jewish refugees during the Shoah. Alaska Airlines was responsible for airlifting of 50,000 Yemenite Jews to Israel, in <a href="https://www.alaskaair.com/content/about-us/history/magic-carpet.aspx" target="_blank">Operation Magic Carpet</a>. <a href="http://www.iaf.org.il/4694-42584-en/IAF.aspx" target="_blank">Operation Salomon</a>, May 1991, rescued 14,500 Ethiopian Jews.<br />

He described his grandfather Wilhelm Gehlkopf from Elberfeld. His great grandfather Abel had a brother Schelemen and a sister Maryjem. Maryjem is my great grandmother: my mothers paternal grandfather Kiva was married to Maryjem Gielkop. I knew immediately from what Stephane shared in his email that we were related. I confirmed the relationship. It was Stephan's 2nd week researching his tree. I 've been searching for decades! He found me through an email I sent his grandfather more than a year ago, 2/2016.<br />
<br />
I made the first connection to my mom's Gehlkopf cousins in 2011. Thankfully my mom was still alive to discover I found the Gelkop cousin she was searching for since she left France in 1950's.<br />

Today I met Stephane and his wife Valerie via Video chat through Facebook. I am hoping to add him as a Facebook friend so I can introduce him to the other Gehlkopf family and share photos<br />

My main motivation was to give a voice to the 2nd & 3rd generation of genocide survivors as the original survivors age and dwindle. Only descendants of survivors can tell the stories with the same passion as their elders, having lived it through their parents/ grandparents. Telling survivor stories captivates the students' attention. A lecture given by a professor will not share the same energy. <br />
<br />
Although I have spoken to students at BCC a couple times, this year was the first time we had an outside request from a local high school. I had the honor of presenting for Yom HaShoah (4/24/2017) at Passaic County Tech for ~50 students. During my 90-minute presentation, I showed my mom's video testimonial about her escape from Germany and also told stories from my dad, and uncle; about their survival, from Paris to Ceyroux.Beverly Margolieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10447833383381266321noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-492443915413457029.post-23579318429321650532017-05-09T14:53:00.005-04:002023-11-09T01:27:23.897-05:00Anti-Israel Propaganda prevents Peace <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

The truth is that Israel is the Jewish birthright and <i>Jews </i>are <b>indigenous </b>to the land of Israel. There is scientific evidence to back this up: DNA and archeological artifacts. Arab Palestinians have even accused Israel of Apartheid. This is so absurd, since Israel is the only Democracy in the Middle East. Arab citizens of Israel have full rights. </span></span><br />

These Arabs were told by <i>their</i> leaders that they would have the "<i>right of return</i>" after Israel was destroyed. At the same time 800,000 Jews living in Arab countries were forced to flee as their homes & property was forcefully confiscated. Those Jewish refugees became Israeli citizens. The Arabs who chose to leave Israel became refugees and are still living as refugees to this day! </span></span><br />

This time I will be presenting at the <a href="http://iajgs2017.org/" target="_blank">International Assoc for Jewish Genealogy</a> in July. I have presented this workshop several times before, for Bergen Community, NJEdge, and my local genealogy group <a href="http://www.jgsnj.org/">jgsnj.org</a> In searching for materials to reuse I found a video online of my first 45-minute session for NJEdge 2013. <br /><br />
This 1-minute video clip describes how finding a single document from US Holocaust Memorial Museum (USHMM) helped me discover a key missing piece of my family tree.<br />

Luce, who works in the mayor's office in Ceyroux, was instrumental in the planning of the event in the Ceyroux town hall on 12/4. In the midst of all the chaos on that day, with all the last-minute details as people were arriving, within minutes of the ceremony starting,.... she took the time to help me translate my speech. This was especially difficult since some of my English phrases were complicated and did not translate well into French. <br />
<br />
For example I planned to say "the story of Ceyroux was ingrained in my brain". I don't think the French use that expression. Some of what I was trying to express, was confusing to Luce, to understand what I meant. My sentences were a disordered mess. There was no elegant 1-for-1 translation. The last-minute nature of this exasperated both of us. Luce was in a hurried state, putting out the champagne, posting the photos on display,,... etc... While I was panicked because my yet-to-be-translated speech was locked in the office. The only calm one was the Scottish Simonnet son who was also helping us.<br />
<br />
The French words and phrases I was comfortable with & could easily pronounce were sometimes traded for a more proper version. I was prepared to say "my dad told me the story of Ceyroux" as "mon pere m'a dit....". Luce changed this familiar, easy to pronounce phrase to "mon pere m'a parler". Were those extra syllables really necessary? LOL. I do not know the subtleties of the language. What was the difference between "dad told me" vs. "dad talked to me". <br />
<br />
In the end, I did not have time to practice using these French phrases. So it was clumsy and my accent was painful to listen to. I should have apologized to the audience. Luckily, Luce & Mr. Benguigui were at my side to help when I got stuck midway.<br />
<br />
The DVD allowed me to replay the ceremony. I played a portion of my speech for my family. When my son heard it he
agreed it was really bad,.... & he heard the good part. Although I regret not being better prepared, I did say most of what I intended. I thanked the families: the Simonnet, Parcelier, & Daquet families. I thanked my niece Danielle for making the visit 5 years ago which facilitated the submission process with Yad Vashem. I was grateful to Yad Vashem for recognizing Ceyroux and the role they played. I regret not mentioning the person who especially helped me with my speech. I hope Luce will forgive me. <br />
<br />
From this 1-hour DVD, I can extract key speeches. So far I have created a version with just Monique's speech. Next, I will separate mine, Luce's, & <a href="https://youtu.be/dBoaUAGoDb4" target="_blank">Mayor Daquet's</a>. I hope to upload to my YouTube channel & put CC (Closed Captions) in English & French. Is there an APP to translate audio from a DVD into text? Google? SIRI? anyone?Beverly Margolieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10447833383381266321noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-492443915413457029.post-2523883186210139522016-12-10T02:28:00.004-05:002017-09-30T17:49:30.369-04:00The Righteous Medal Ceremony - Yad Vashem<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I was thrilled and honored to represent my family at this special ceremony in Ceyroux on 12/4/2016.<a href="http://db.yadvashem.org/righteous/search.html?language=en" target="_blank"> Yad Vashem </a>honors righteous gentiles who risked their lives to save Jews during the Shoah.<br />
<br />
My father always talked about the good people of Ceyroux. The story of Ceyroux was imprinted upon my brain from a young age as a special place of refuge.<br />
<br />
My dad was a hero for fleeing Paris in June 1942, at the beginning of "La Grand Rafle", and for saving our family by leading them to Ceyroux. My dad described how the kindness of strangers restored his faith in humanity. I am grateful to my niece Danielle for making the trip to Ceyroux 6 years ago in 2010, with my nephew Carl. Their visit facilitated the process of submitting the names of the righteous with Yad Vashem. I am thankful to Mayor Daquet and the Simonnet and Parcelier families for protecting my family, giving them a new life in hiding on the farm for 2 years during the Shoah. Now, we are not strangers, we share a special bond, like family.<br />
<br />
At the ceremony I met members of the families from Ceyroux, many, many generations of descendants. It was interesting to me the various levels present: There were 3 people who were original - alive during those 2 years: <br />
<ul>
<li>Madame Alice Meillassoux, Leontine's niece. She knew my parents. </li>
<li>Mr. Simonnet </li>
<li>Daniel Daquet, son of Mayor Leon Daquet, although he was too young in 1942 to remember my parents </li>
<li>Henri Gaujal who was 10 when my grandfather made him a suit for his communion. He remembered seeing my dad hiding in the woods. He kept it a secret until my niece & nephew visited 6 years ago. </li>
</ul>
I met the daughter of Mr. Merigot, Vieilleville pharmacist who was also the coach of my dad's Sunday soccer team. He warned my dad when he saw buses coming to collect Jews in Ceyroux. I met Bernadette, granddaughter of Mr. Albert Mayne who was active in the Maqui. I learned that Mr. Mayne was the owner of the house that hid 8 members of my family in 3 small rooms. He also warned my dad when my dad got called into Gueret. Bernadette still lives in that very same house.<br />

On Sunday December 4, 2016,<b> MEDALs of Righteous Among the Nations </b>were awarded to <b>Daquet, Simonnet & Parcelier</b> families. Dignitaries & recipients gave speeches to a packed town hall... I gave
a speech as representative of our family that was saved by these good
people from 1942-1944. 8 family members survived in this remote
farm village thanks to people who risked their lives to save us.<br />
<br />
Mayor Leon Daquet provided my dad with a new ID that concealed his Jewish identity, changing his name from Jacob Joseph to Jacques, occupation from printer to farmer "cultivateur", and no more "Juif" stamp. <br />

I
saw the house & barn that hid my parents, grandparents, and aunts for 2
years, in 3 small rooms. There was no running water or toilets. The
original well was still there although no longer operational. The house was owned by Monsieur Albert Mayne, a MAQUI (resistance fighter).<br />
<br />
My dad described how he arrived in Ceyroux unannounced in June 1942 & told Leontine Parcelier that he was Jewish & needed a place of refuge. She welcomed him with open arms, "avec bras ouvert".<br />
<br />
Madame Monique Resche said although what her family did was extraordinary, they did what was natural. Her mom was a bicycle message courier for the MAQUIs.<br />

They provided my parents & their families with a place to live, new identities and work as farmers. I look forward to retracing my dad's journey from Paris through Vierzon to Chateauxroux, to Ceyroux. When my parents arrived there in July 1942 Ceyroux was in the Free zone "zone libre". After 6 months, France was completely consumed by the German Nazi occupation. Ceyroux was subject to intrusive searches which forced my parents to hide in the woods and barn.<br />
<br />
Ceyroux's mayor Leon Daquet, the Simonnet and Parcelier families, and the people of Ceyroux all played a part in my parents survival. Mayer Daquet provided my dad with a new identity card, "carte d'identite", changing his name from the revealing Jacob Joseph to a neutral Jacques. His occupation changed from printer to cultivateur (farmer), and no more Juif stamp. <br />

It is both tragic and miraculous. Alicia suffers the tragic loss of her entire family one-by-one. Her first escape is on the transport to Auschwitz: She is pushed out of the train when her neighbor discovers a loose floor board. He tells her "You must live."<br />
<br />
She is imprisoned, beaten, starved, and infected with typhus by the Germans and their Polish collaborators. After being whipped unconscious by an SS officer she is left in a pile of dead bodies awaiting burial. A Jewish couple from the Chortov ghetto rescue her and nurse her back to health. When she is later captured again by the Germans waiting to be shot by a firing squad, she is saved by Jewish partisans. There are many occasions where she saves other victims of the Nazis: Jews and Russians. She speaks out and advocates for her right to live on many occasions.<br />
<br />
She survives by living as a peasant girl and working as a farm hand. When she overhears German officers plotting to kill Russian partisans in the nearby woods, She rides the farmer's horse into the forest to warn the Russians. On her way back she is discovered by the Germans who question her: what is she doing in the woods at night. She saves herself by concocting a story crying and blaming the disobedient horse! The Germans dismiss her as a silly peasant girl.<br />
<br />
When the WWII ends, she returns to her uncle Kurtz' house to discover it
occupied by a hostile stranger. Alicia unleashes her outrage accusing him of betraying her uncle
so he could steal his property.<br />
As a sole survivor, she sets up orphanages for other lost and hungry Jewish children. She later is recruited by the Breka to smuggle Jews out of Europe and into Israel. She describes the difficulty of starting a new life after the war. Beverly Margolieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10447833383381266321noreply@blogger.com0
