Today Oscar Schindler`s name is known to millions as a household word for courage in a world of brutality. He saved hundreds of Jews from Hitler’s gas chambers. One remarkable man who outwitted the Nazis to save more Jews from the gas chambers than any other during World War 2. He surfaced from the chaos of madness, spent millions bribing and paying off the SS and eventually risked his life to rescue 1,200 Jews in the shadow of Auschwitz. In those years, millions of Jews died in the death camps, but Schindler`s Jews miraculously survived. Oscar Schindler died penniless. Today there are 7,000 descendants of Schindler`s Jews living in US and Europe, and many in Israel. Before the Second World War, the Jewish population of Poland was 3.5 million. Today there are between 3,000 and 4,000 left. Here you find Schindler Jews sharing memories of their unlikely savior - generations will remember him for what he did.
1942 - On 20 January, Adolf Hitler and the Nazis complete the planning for the End losung (Final Solution), the extermination of the Jews, Gypsies, Slavs, homosexuals, communists, and other "undesirables" and "decadents" in death camps run by the SS and controlled by the Gestapo. About six million European Jews die in the following `Holocaust`. Most (about 4.5 million) of those killed come from Poland and the Soviet Union. About 125,000 are German Jews.
Adolf Hitler (1889-1945)
Joseph Stalin killed approximately 20 million, including up to 14.5 million needlessly starved to death. At least one million executed for political "offences". At least 9.5 million more deported, exiled or imprisoned in work camps, with many of the estimated five million sent to the `Gulag Archipelago` never returning alive. Other estimates place the number of deported at 28 million, including 18 million sent to the `Gulag`.
Joseph Stalin (1879-1953)
King Léopold killed five to 15 million Congolese (Africans) (the indigenous inhabitants of the Congo River basin).
King Léopold II of Belgium (1835-1909)
Adolph Hitler has been shown in history books as a man who has tried to decimate the Jewish people. And their children will learn of the suffering of their people, yet nowhere in these same history books will our children learn of King Leopold and how he tried to do the same of the Congolese people.
