HOLOCAUST FORGOTTEN : DEDICATED TO THE FIVE MILLION MURDERED IN THE HOLOCAUST WHO WERE NOT JEWISH

HOLOCAUST FORGOTTEN  

'While there is no argument that Hitler abhorred the Jews and caused almost six million to be ruthlessly killed, often non-Jewish victims are tragically forgotten from Holocaust remembrances.  Eleven million precious human lives were lost during the Holocaust.  Five million of these were non-Jewish.  Three million were Polish Christians and Catholics.  It would be very sad to forget even one precious life extinguished so ruthlessly  It wold be a tragedy to forget five million. 

WHY REMEMBERING NON-JEWISH VICTIMS IS IMPORTANT TO US ALL.


Excerpt:  We are familiar with the statistics : nearly 10,000 Jehovah Witnesses imprisoned and at least 2,000 admitted to Nazi concentration camps of which at least half were murdered, over 250 by beheading.    What we do not know as well is the day-to-day existence of this extraordinary group of committed men, women, and children under the rule of National Socialist terror.
