I find Hillary very frightening and would never vote for her. However, there are many in our country who would. She seems to have a way of getting what she wants. When she "thought about" running for the NY senate, I knew she would run, and I knew she would win. I do worry that she will run for president, and by hook or crook, she may very well win, and we could find ourselves in very dire circumstances.

By the way, my grandmother and Jewish step-grandfather did escape Austria in time. They felt some very bad things were about to happen. His parents were not so lucky however. They thought it would be safe to stay in Austria, but because they were Jewish, they were taken away to the camps where they died. Many people thought it could not happen to them.

That was the refrain at the time,
"it couldn't happen here".

"They thought it would be safe to stay in Austria, but because they were Jewish, they were taken away to the camps where they died. Many people thought it could not happen to them."

Again you lie. Those Jews who could get out of Germany did. Most German Jews who stayed did so because there was nowhere in the world that would accept them. Austria only became part of the Nazi/German empire in 1938 by which time the gates of the entire world were almost closed to Jews trying to flee the disaster that awaited them. That's why so many Austrian Jews were murdered - ditto Poland, France, Holland, Belgium etc. etc. etc.

Trust you to attempt to blame the Jews for their own deaths. Instead you should turn your attentions to the anti-Semitic immigration policies of Canada, Britain and the U.S. that had been instituted at that time. Luck had nothing to do with it. Jew hatred did.
