Was this not the whole premise of "Schindler's List"?
Bkmk
Why is anyone surprised that a pack of natural-born liars are lying?
Mel Brooks has made a career out of making fun of the Holocaust.
Bill Kristol, RINO extraordinaire…
He and the rest of the hateful ignoramuses couldn’t care less about the truth if it bit them in the ass…
Kristol is a Commie who once infiltrated the GOP and Conservative movements.
If Bill Kristol were examined under the microscope of ant-semitism, I bet he would be found to be a gross hypocrite, just like everything else he opines on.
Kristol is not exactly a trusted unbiased source on anything.
He’s a partisan commentator with an opinion, good for him, we all have opinions.
“ Kristol is a Commie who once infiltrated the GOP and Conservative movements.”
Exactly!
I never understood why people didn’t see this earlier. He ALWAYS parted from the conservatives on the big issues.
Jews survived by being useful
Hard to reduce an intellect like Frankel to a short phrase, I'd have said those Jews who survived did so through concentration, with a positive attitude, on the positives of their future. Clumsy wording, too long, and no matter. I'd be accused of antisemitism or racism if I said that about slavery. By people who know Frankel only as the owner of a Kosher deli (no, didn't own one)
I know, I should’ve put down a sarcasm tag…
The King of Late Night does not care. In fact, he is most likely laughing his you know what off.
Mel Brooks made fun of the Nazis but ever made fun of the Holocaust.
In the meantime, Soros funds Palestinian terrorists and liberals call criticism of Soros for finding the murder of Jews “antisemitism”.
I’ve long stopped ignoring these turkeys.
Frankl survived the Holocaust, just as Frederick Douglas survived slavery. The left hates their stories because they contradict the victim hood narrative. The liberals argue, implicitly, that blacks could not have made it without liberal compassion. And they hate Jews for not only refusing their phony sympathy, but for succeeding without it, and doing so spectacularly on their own.
IMO, Gutfeld should keep his mouth shut about the history of the Holocaust that he obviously doesn’t understand and apologize for his ignorance.
Many Jews along with many Christian Poles and others who were sent to Auschwitz and other camps had skills and trades and some were highly educated, engineers, doctors, educators, for example, yet because they were not suited for the type of forced labor that benefited the Nazis in some of the camps (some camps were purely for extermination and some were more focused on forced labor, factory work for example such as was depicted in the movie Schindler’s List), were sent to the gas chambers and murdered shortly upon arrival after “the selection” along with countless women and children, infants and the elderly and infirmed.
Yes, some Jews in the camps were not immediately executed because they had some skills the Nazis found useful, yet many perished in the forced labor camps from malnutrition and the rampant diseases endemic in the concentration camps. Many only survived a few months under inhumane conditions despite any “skills” they may have had.
Some Jews were forced under threat of death to work in the crematoriums and in sorting the personal belongs taken from other Jews. Most lived with that horror for the rest of their lives, having what we would call PSDT or survivor’s guilt. Yes, the found a way to be “useful” but only in a desperate attempt to survive.

In the early days of Israel, the Holocaust survivors were shunned, even ridiculed by the other Jews in Israel, because of the perception that they didn’t fight back.
That only started to change with the Eichmann Trial.
