Deep heartfelt 'thank you' for this ♡. I'm listening to many different testimonies of survivors and try to feel with them, I think it's not really possible.. but I know about this revealing feeling that can fulfill yourself by writing your own experience down for yourself... I am german, born 1960. It's unbelievable how people could let this tragic happen. My parents lived in a little village in countryside, hills of Eifel. My father was to ill to serve and died young. My mother was a really honest person, I've asked her many times about Holocaust. She told me, she didn't get knowledge about, for long time I could not fully trust her words. Now I know that in our surroundings there were no camps. I hope so much I would stand up against any kind of inhumanity . Thanks so much for the work you do/ have done ☆☆☆
My father who passed in 2007 survived the Nazi concentration camps the last being Dachau .. he often would have nightmares . He was not Jewish but a Polish Catholic .
This is such an excellent video. My grandparents were from the Netherlands (they've both passed). My grandfather was taken to Krupp in Essen as a POW and my grandmother was in Amsterdam during the war, after their home in The Hague was forcibly taken from them. My gran would not talk about her experiences much at all, and if ever she did, she'd cry. Her father managed to convince his kids that they WERE NOT Jewish, despite us later finding out that we are of Jewish lineage. Till my grans death, she flatly refused any Jewish heritage, even though her maiden name was Jewish, she had received a ceremonial Star of David that was kept hidden during the war and another family member had gone through the family tree with her and pinpointed the strong Jewish lineage in it. She did say that she'd be stopped on the street by the SS, and asked where her star was. You could clearly see she was Jewish - but whether it was that my great grandfather had managed to convince her she was not Jewish and she could believably deny it, or other things happened we don't know about - we don't know how she escaped capture. My grandfather escaped Krupp eventually and walked on foot all the way back to Holland. He was eventually picked up by the British army in the Rhineland, and appointed an Officer and interpreter as he hd learned to speak, read and write Hungarian while at Krupp. He also only ever relayed the lighter stuff he experienced, but kept any trauma to himself. When you say that different people have different ways of dealing with things - that is so on point! Every survivor of WW2 I've met have had different ways of sharing and dealing... we will never understand their pain.
I am arab, Iraqi who supported palestine since i was small kid, this isn't the right place for your your comment, if a youtube channel decided to make videos about an particular issue that isn't a bad thing and we shouldn't change the topic of it. There are a lot of channels that talk about palestine and support them, i recommend go watching them instead of commenting here.
@@JoyceTopper is it a joke? Palestinians suffered ethnic cleansing, stealing of homes and lands, Apartheid, tortures, illegal prison, colonisation, murders, what are you talking about? Many Jewish people are against these horrirific war crimes.
This isn't the right place for ur comment, there are a lot of channels that talk about palestine, why not go and watch them and support them, why comment here? I literally support Palestine since i was very small kid since I am arab, and i know ur comment isn't helping them or helping anyone.
@@PlantGirl_y2k Let's be serious. Every crime against humanity is horrific and deserves to be condemned. There are no victims of one category and victims of another. The State of Israel bases its legitimacy on two pillars. One is very real, the genocide known as the Holocaust. Another belongs to the world of the interpretation of the fantastic, a peculiar mystical-political vision of the Bible. The first is used profusely, "ad nauseam", to justify the violations of international law, human rights and humanitarian law committed by Israel. From ethnic cleansing to the use of torture, rape, murder of children and doctors, everything is justified like this. It is not possible for those of us who see it clearly to accept that appalling crimes committed from 1939 to 1945 are condemned, but at the same time to try to close their eyes to crimes that are being committed right now and that are intended to be justified by appealing to them.
Thank you for this program.
Thank you...

You mean Hamas induced trauma?
