TRANSLATION: Hello Martin, This comment is in Polish because writing in English is difficult for me. The subject of Holocaust should be propagated as widely as possible because new generations do not know too much about it, yet it was the greatest catastrophe of a modern world. I've read a lot of books about Holocaust and the only thing I can say is that we must do anything possible not to allow this to be forgotten and to repeat. Great honors for your Father Olek and for you for the work you do. Witaj Martin,ten komentarz będzie po polsku ponieważ po angielsku

We need to understand that ethnic cleansing or whatever name is applied to it is wrong and we need to educate all our children about this whatever our religion. Look at what the native Americans/Indians went through, the African Americans, the terror of Srebrinica and everything else that happened in the Balkans (the Muslim Holocaust???) while the UN and NATO did nothing, the horrors of Rwanda while the French looked on and only protected their own citizens while turning away from the thousands of men, women and children, all innocent, who were unmercifully butchered by people who had previously been good neighbours. Unfortunately there will always be evil out there and remember that for evil to succeed all it takes is for good men to do nothing!!!!!!!

Im happy on your behalf that your father received such an great honour (in my opinion the best you can obtain ever) I do have interest in the history about all the disgusting things that happened to the 6 million Jews during the world war ll. There is no words that can describe it. Im from Denmark. My parents were fighting against the nazi germans under the war. The english airforce dropped containers for the danish resistance and my fathers job was to gather the weapons and deliver them to a hiding place and my mothers job was to hide the parachute. It sounds like it was a easy job but under the circumstances during the war they had to react very quickly. After the hiding they were involved in communication that could inform those who needed the weapons. Im just proud because i had parents who actually did somethings to fight a horrible regime that had the killing of that many people on its conscience. When im on the net and other places for that matter, see muslims or other attacking Jews because they are Jews, it simply light a red lamp in my head and im attacking it. We cant simply not as humans allow ourselves to see that kind of attack without doing somethings against it. We must do all we can to avoid the horrible things we saw during the war to happen again just in a modern form. Religions frighten me simply because they put limits on peoples freedom of movement. Im born christian but consider myself as an kind of atheist. I was a time several years ago in love with a jewish girl but the jewish religion prevented me from having a relationship with her. I know not all Jews (like all other people from different religions) stick that much to the religion, but unfortunately she did, so i had to let it go. Maybe i should have tried harder that time, but i was afraid i just made her life worse. People in my country do have liberty, justice and equality both men and women. The only place i see some small inequalities, is when speaking about pay (men and women), i dont know why, but they are there, even though they might be small. When speaking generally, all people have to work for their freedom in every way. Freedom isnt just somethings you will get without doing somethings for it (if so its totally wrong).

Great website altogether. Its great to learn the many lessons history has taught us -- many lessons which today's leaders don't seem to see or consider when taking action. While going through some of my own mini research I heard there were also many other people/organizations that had stood up against the Holocaust during that time. Any info on that or about its authenticity?? I am sure you quite proud of your Father for his actions. Great website altogether.

Your father and Oscar Schindler are both good men and so are the other people who helped the Jews in the holocaust. God bless all the Jews who were killed in the Holocaust and God bless the people who have come together to make a difference.

The fact that he detached himself from all material things and to risk his life to save others; makes Oskar unique.

I would like to learn more about the darkest period in the history of mankind. I am really in awe of what your father did. Lets promote peace and tolerance worldwide.

I believe that this much evil had to have been a manifestation of that Personal Evil we call Satan. And I believe that Hitler survived all thos assassination attempts due to intervention of that Evil. It led him, protected him, and nurtured his terrible hatred, a hate that I believe has cut him off from God's Grace. I believe that those Righteous Among the Nations are in God's Grace, and will be there forever. They all lived in such a way that each day was a sacrifice for them; a sacrifice of their personal safety, and in such a way that they became more vulnerable to that terrible Evil. And that kind of Righteousness comes only from God's Grace. It comes a s a result of Faith and Belief in God's Own Teachings for us, and in the responsibility of each of us in this world for each the other. "Lord, am I my brother's keeper?" said Cain to the Lord. And the Lord Answered "Thy brother's blood cries out from the ground to My Ears, and it cries out for vengeance". God's reaction and punishment of Cain for the murder of his own brother should tell ua all what is Right and what is not. Schindler, Kent and all the rest who resisted that awful hatred and evil deserve to be named as heroes to us all. And they ARE. Let their names be known forever. That they have achieved a Measure of God's Grace is without argument by anyone with Faith. May they live forever in His Glory and Loving Presence, and may they share in Our Father's Wholeness and Love forever. That Hitler was an anti-Christ, I have no doubt.
