Murder of Children
-
The last few years have been a strange year for a great number of countries across the world, especially when it comes to education. There is no doubt that the Covid 19 pandemic will have consequences down the line for many students. However most of them when they go back to school, they will still…

One thing that never should be said about children is “Reached the age of..” Yet this did apply to so many children who were murdered during the Holocaust. Everyone who was murdered during that time was innocent. 1.5 million children were killed. 1.5 million human being who never were allowed to blossom into you men…

I was going to do a piece on Nora Italiaander. She would have celebrated her 80th birthday today, but she was murdered on June 4,1943 in Sobibor. She was just aged 2. The picture above is of her death notification issued on the 11th of June 1947, 4 years after her death. But like Nora…

One of the most disturbing aspects of the Holocaust I found is, the fact, that so many who were instrumental in so many evil deeds were allowed to continue after the war. In February or March 1939, a farmer called Richard Kretschmar and requested Catel’s permission to euthanize one of his children. The child, now…

At first I felt joy because who could not be joyful seeing those 2 beautiful smiley faces. Then I am amazed because I see you two have the same birthday, April 4, 1932. This is followed by bewilderment because you appear to have different last names. Milan Herrmann and Dagmar Herrmannová. But after a bit…
