Telling the truth about the Holocaust

Were you aware that many Jews, and one in particular, spent three entire years, from 1941 to 1944 trying to awaken the American press, Congress and the American people to the Holocaust? 

The man was Hillel Kook and you can find part of the story in wikipedia. (Also here). What the story fails to impress is that Kook called on the New York Times on many occasions, brought prominent rabbis with him and never got the Times to publish a word about the ongoing Holocaust. Shame on the Sulzbergers forever.

My father was a rabbi in El Paso, Texas before the war.  He was very aware of the treatment of Jews in Germany because he smuggled many into the U.S over the Mexican border.  He was even given a Zeiss camera by one of them as a gift (which I used in my teenage years). My father joined the Navy the week after Pearl Harbor. While in the Navy, he was on a Presidential commission to decide whether Jewish conscientious objectors should escape service.  He voted 'no' and his side prevailed.  He knew about the Holocaust and went to visit Palestine and help shortly after he was discharged from the Navy. 

The shocking part of this story that is never discussed is that: Orthodox Jews in America helped Kook as much as they could and the Reform Jewish establishment opposed him, sabotaged him and did everything they could to contradict the evidence of the Holocaust. The majority of Reform Jews were opposed to Israel for ten years after it was established. The Holocaust museum never makes this point.

To this day, 9 out of 10 American Reform Jews have no idea that their fellow Reform religionists and rabbis participated (by opposing the truth) in the killing of 6 million Jews. They also have no idea that they are today the main Jewish force in America that fails to support Israel when Arabs attack, kill and murder innocent Jews. America's Reform Jews have failed their fellow Jews for the past 80 years. 

Are they really Jews?

The terrorist group I referred to is the Irgun,
perhaps an eample of the adage that one mans
terrorist is another mans freedom fighter.

What terrorist group?

Hardly surprising that he had so little credibility. After all he did use an assumed name, lied about his affiliations, relentlessly flouted the law and was a die hard member of one of the most brutal and bloody terrorist groups the world has ever seen.

An amazing bit of history.
