Great testimony! Her father didn't touch her because inside he was just as scared as her. He didn't know what was going to happen, and most likely thought he would see his family again. But, I guarantee he was with her in spirit for the rest of her life!
Very moving testimony. Very striking to listen to, but I still listen to as many as I can to honour their memory and make it last. I have been very close to survivors and I learned a lot from them.
I do not watch every one of these. They are too painful, but I think of the pain they went through and know what I feel when I watch these is a mere fraction, a blink. My grandfather and his 3 brothers all went to War - Canadians. My grandfather and one of his brothers were with another country's troops to help liberate the camps. There were so many. We only hear about a few of the 'infamous death camps, but people forget: there were already over 100 camps by 1933 and that number soared to around 42,000 by the time the war ended. There were so many, and it was a monumental task, and a horrifying one. My grandfather came back a very broken man. He never recovered mentally and he visited his torment on my grandmother, and his 3 children - one of which was my father, which he then visited on to us kids. The Nazi legacy and the damage they did has carried on for generations. Unfortunately, I don't think we've seen the last of this. History repeats itself because we can't do something so simple: Be kind to each other.
I understand you very well but think about one thing, how can you be kind towards people whose only interest is to exterminate you. Kindness doesn't work. For "peace and love" you need at least 2 parties. How can you have peace and love if the other wants to kill you... You need 2 for tango. And for peace. That is what I've learnt from my Polish grandfather. He was liberated (by the Canadians among others).
@@erzonca558 You can't have peace. Peace is a myth, in my opinion. That being said, what I meant was: It just takes EVERYONE to be kind. One person who isn't - it's gone because it spreads like wildfire. The desire to retaliate will always be there and it takes very strong people to put the garbage we grew up with and were brainwashed in to believing to the side. Your grandfather is a smart man and is very right.
I am a black American woman who watched the pianist last night . I decided to educate myself on the holocaust . Especially Jewish Ghettos and concentration camps. Let me just say I understand this part of history a lot better. I am truly moved by the resilience of people who survived this atrocious part of modern history. I cried reading about certain things pertaining to the holocaust. I couldn’t bring myself to finish. Blessings to the chosen people❤
The Hebrew language is such a delight to listen to. This lovely lady would be such a blessing to her parents. As it is, she is blessing us. HalleluYahweh.
I am like them, I live without a name, without an identity, without peace, without recognition of my existence in a large prison, just because I am a minority in the Middle East. I do not believe that there are righteous people who will save me.

You turned out to be a beautiful and loving person. God Bless you.
Precious people in the world then, I have a reverence for them. It is amazing that all that occurred. Many thanks for the stories.
Thank you for sharing your testimony❣️
