Kristallnach and Sexual Abuse
November 9, 1938 - Kristallnacht marks the start of the holocaust. The date in which German and Austrian neighbors stood by and watched as synagogues were torched, how old communities were destroyed and they were silent. They were witnesses to the atrocities, the torture and the degradation of their Jewish neighbors and they looked the other way. Their silence and their ignoring of what was taking place, was the same as direct participation. Thus by the silent support of the German population, and by lack of any real reaction by the rest of the world the Holocaust persisted.
The sexual assault against Dinah marks the start of the on-going attack against Jewish children and adults. The date in which Jewish friends and neighbors stood by and watched how our children were being molested and adult's who were raped, cries for help were ignored. It marks the time in which old communities were destroyed and they were silent. They were witnesses to the atrocities, the torture and the degradation of their Jewish children and they looked the other way. Their silence and their ignoring of what was taking place, was the same as direct participation. Thus by the silent support of the Jewish population, and by lack of any real reaction by the rest of the world this continues.
