Jacks Aunt Malka

Keep up the good work with your website and your spreading of the good word on Israel.
Too many voices exist in the world with hateful opinions about Israel's right to defend itself against enemies and violent threats.

But then if you know world history and the parallel Jewish history, you know that regimes and political movements that target Jews -- eventually are consumed by their own virulence.

My Aunt Malka was standing in the midst of the 5000 Jews of Staszow assembled in the Town Square for deportation on the morning of November 8, 1942.

The 70 year-old heroine suddenly shouted out loud to the Germans: "Know, your defeat is near ! All those who tried to destroy Israel were themselves utterly destroyed. We have had many oppressors in our history and outlived them all -- we will outlive you, as well. Hitler's fate will be like that of Titus...
At that moment, Malka was murdered.

Her words and her courage live on. At least in the minds of any survivors who heard them.
And, although I did not know her personally, she remains memorialized in my heart.

Warmest regards and best wishes always,

Jack
