Babies Deported to Westerbork Concentration Camp

The one thing I can’t come to terms with, and even refuse to come to terms with, is the murder of babies during the Holocaust.

I know one of the reasons behind it was the purification of the Aryan race. But, how pure are you as a race when you murder babies? Another reason was that they were afraid that when these babies grew up, they would possibly look for revenge for the death of their families. You can expect revenge when you know you did something wrong.

The picture above is of Roosje van der Hal. She was born in Groningen on 17 March 1942 and murdered in Sobibor on 21 May 1943. She reached the age of one.

Nehemia Levy Cohen was born in Amsterdam on 20 December 1940. She was murdered in Sobibor on 7 May 1943. She had reached two years of age.

Both babies were deported to Westerbork on 25 January 1943 and then to Sobibor, where they were killed. These were only two of the 1.5 million children. The scary thing is that there have been genocides, albeit on a smaller scale, after the Holocaust—babies once again were victims.

I want you all to look into the faces of these two sweet angels and ask yourself, “What can I do to stop this from happening again?”

  2. But can there be a reason to kill their families as well? Isn’t it just as cruel?

    The Bible has a message. It has a commandment that is called in Hebrew shiluach hakan. It is actually for alleviation of the mother’s distress do send her away from her baby birds nest.

    I don’t find one crime any different than the others. Why take my great great grandmother in her upper 80s to be shot in a forest? If you believe you have a right to kill civilians who are also not armed and pose no threat, then kill them on the spot.

    I want people to focus on all the merciless killings of civilians. Until the US recently got more involved, there were civilian targeting begun by Russia but followed up by Ukraine.

    It’s time to stop targeted murder of Civilians anywhere. Whether 86 or 2.
