    Problem is not the one who betrayed Anne to save himself. The problem is the one who destroyed the person to the point he could be able to sacrifice Anne. I was born during the war in Rwanda. I saw with my eyes, when a parent abandoned their children to save themselves. I saw one who killed his close neighbors. Many betrayed their loved one. I know they loved them but broken.

      @Jeremy Purdue Um, no. The diary wasn't written with a ballpoint pen. That's just a worn-out denialist lie a lot of ignorant morons are eager to swallow. The “ballpoint myth” is based on the simple fact that, around 1960, two annotation sheets with ballpoint writing were inserted between the original pages. These texts were written by a graphological researcher, and are not included in any edition of the diary. All the diary entries are written in various types of ink and (coloured) pencil, not in ballpoint. The document analysis by the Netherlands Forensic Institute showed that the main part of the diary and the loose sheets were written in grey-blue fountain pen ink.

      In 1980, because of a lawsuit in a German court, the German state forensic bureau, the Bundes Kriminal Amt [BKA], forensically examined the original “diary” manuscript. Their analysis determined that “significant” portions of the work were written with a ballpoint pen. Since ballpoint pens were not available before 1951, portions of the work were added well after the war (Anne Frank died in March 1945).
      The BKA also determined that none of the “diary” handwriting matched known examples of Anne’s handwriting. Earlier handwriting experts had determined that all of the writing in the “diary” was by the same hand. Therefore, the entire “diary” was a postwar fake.
      The true author of the diary was Jewish novelist Meyer Levin, who demanded and was awarded $50,000 in payment for his work in a court action against Anne’s father, Otto Frank.

      It's based around theories and rough evidence. They can't be certain and unless the family of the person who betrayed them long ago comes out (which is still possible), we won't fully know. It wouldn't surprise me that this might likely be the case as back then rating someone else to save your own isn't exactly a foolish decision. It was a tough choice to make and certainly begs to question morals. I do agree though that putting out the family to what is considered just a theory is a bit too much. Even then I don't blame the family's ancestor for what had to be done or in their minds. War times were just horrible.

    If you read "Nothing to Envy" stories of North Korean survivors you come to realize that the nicest people died first in the North Korean famine. Those that shared food, shared resources would die. Those that were cutthroat and stole survived. Similar stories came out of the holocaust, the famine in China. I tell my wife she would be the first to go in such a crisis because of her kind heart. Survival of the fittest in these instances means that the ultimate survivors go on to breed and the result is a group of people whose personality changed versus a group that wasn't exposed to such horror. Over decades North Koreans vs South Koreans, although originally genetically the same, may have very different genetic personalities.

      Nothing to Envy is an amazing book:) I remember one of the stories where a teacher watches a young girl starve to death in her classroom 😢 but she (the teacher) never gives the girl her own food.
      At the end of the day, the teacher’s tiny bit of food would never be enough to feed all the hungry children that surrounded them 😔
      If anyone is interested, another profound book on the topic (and specific to the Jewish Holocaust) is The Drowned and the Saved by Primo Levi. I cannot recommend Levi’s writing enough, and I’m a big enough person to admit that like your wife 😉 I wouldn’t have survived in that kind of situation.

Although we won't definitively know the impact of nature vs nurture on personality for years to come, nurture has a solidly proven correlation to future outcomes.

      I think it was good for me at a young age the shock of learning of those events allowed me to see the world for what it can be a cruel evil place full of people who will blindly follow the masses or turn a blind eye to things they don't want to see. when its taught at a young age it gets deeply engrained in our minds and because of that it would be a hopeful deterrent for history to repeat itself. I don't know maybe I was the exception and not the rule, after I learned of the holocaust I did in depth research on what happened in those camps as well as what the Imperial Japanese did which in some cases was worse than what the Nazis were doing, check out Unit 731 or their "comfort women/girls" which were sex slaves given to the Japanese service men from raids of neighboring countries. They would go to poor areas and kill the men and boys while capturing the women it rarely gets talked about ask anyone about the atrocities of WWII and you'll hear about the horrible things the Nazi's did and all most will bring up about the Japanese is pearl harbor. I don't know why it's so rarely brought up especially in the education system I had to find that out on my own something that terrible should be talked about.

      Example, look what happened to the Afro Korean kids in South Korea after the Korean War. The government pressured people to abort or hand over their “mixed” babies to international adoption groups in an effort to “eliminate” them. If that was no option and mixed were not in a manageable number, you can guess what would’ve come next. Probably cleansing.
      Somalia, Rwanda, Japan, Turkey, Germany this trend happens all so often. The only ones you’ll hear about are the ones which the victim group became was so significant in number (like the aforementioned and today China) the government can’t work silently to eliminate them.

    What a shitty situation to be put in. Everyone can judge this person and give their two cents about his actions but we'll never truly experience what he went through. To choose between your family and the life of someone else. To call him a traitor and say he betrayed is a gross oversimplification of what happened. He was a guy who had no choice but was forced to make one regardless and live with the guilt of it. I suspect almost everyone here, myself included, would have done exactly as he did when the lives of your loved ones are on the line. Blame the people who put him in the situation, not the man himself.

When it comes down to it, how many of us who mostly live in peaceful times, will be willing to have our own family killed just to save the life of a stranger? You can convince yourself by saying, 'I'd never do that' but that conviction is made from your current perspective and said from the safety of your current position.

    I remember reading Anne Frank’s diary in 6th grade, and being disturbed for several years on what kind of person could have had the heart to turn her and her family in. As time went on and as I learned more about history, wars, and psychology, it became more obvious that it’s in our human nature to do the unthinkable if it means ensuring the survival of our loved ones, or even to protect ourselves. Unfortunately, it’s also human nature to be greedy and desire power, financial well-being, etc - and hoped that wasn’t the reason why the Frank family was turned in. Anyways; clicked on this thinking it was finally known who the person was - but guess it’s still possibly a mystery since evidence seems to be based on just an anonymous letter. If it was van den Bergh, then guess I’m glad it didn’t turn out to be the heartless and greedy villain type; as it seems he was forced to do it to protect his own loved ones.

    “What humanity may be capable of” ? How callous and cruel. The subjection of this man, his family, like millions of families, do not deserve to be demonized in their attempts for safety. We are incredibly fortunate to have primary accounts such as Anne Frank’s, but to perceive a man who saved his family as a traitor is wrong. These humans were all victims. What a complete lack of empathy or historical imagination to label this poor soul a traitor. Shame on you, this is not “investigative reporting”, this is inflammatory clickbait journalism to misrepresent the horrors of this moment in history. There is an actual traitor in this story, and it is the countless of people in power then who waited many years to intervene, and those in power who continue to enable the rise of Nazism in our modern day. It is an ultimate shame that, these are the traitors to these victims.

Do we expect him to let his family die just so that others don't? He would have been a horrible father and husband then. Morally, he can't win in this situation.

      Anne and Margot held on for many months before they perished in late February or early March. She died of disease because she was suffering from malnutrition and couldn't fight it off.
      The Nazis focused on guarding the camp gates in case of escape attempts.
      They even had a sign at the entrance saying "Stay away, TYPHUS!"

    Calling him a traitor and a betrayer is so wrong. It makes complete sense that someone is willing to sacrifice another family to save their own especially during that horrendous time. Its ignorant to call him a bad person.

      @@corruptinternationalzionis4154 Exactly. And yet some of the people here who are disgusted at this bigotry and discrimination, are the same people who support discrimination against the unvaccinated. Back then, the famous Austrian promoted the hatred by convincing everyone that these people spread typhus, so they were banned from places like barbers and shops until after 5pm. Most people can't imagine how a society can be convinced so readily to pursue such unwarranted discrimination with little evidence. But in our own time, we only have to look at how quickly some people have turned on the unvaccinated to see how easily unfounded hatred against a group is engendered, and how quickly the unquestioning masses cry 'Burn the witch!'

    We can't criticize him, if we don't understand the serious situation he was in. During that time, betrayals were something really common. People show their rawest emotions, as they fight over each other for their own lives. Parents to children. Siblings to siblings. Friends to friends. They still love each other, and heartbroken. But as their lives are at stakes, they have no choice but to give up everything they've built together. I feel super sorry for the ones who didn't want such stories to happen, but have to save themselves. Let's not judge anyone and call him a 'traitor' when he's trying to save himself and his family. We have no choice but to betray our closest allies to save our families. It's natural. And how you describe him as a devil who shows his true colors at dark times, it disgusts me.
