Hot 3 starting at 4:00 p.m., memorial in the living room
Also this year, the Israeli tradition of commemorating the Holocaust and Heroism Memorial Day continues, which passes the baton of remembrance from the state ceremonies and mass rallies – to personal, meaningful and exciting meetings that take place every year in thousands of salons at the same time. Every year about one and a half million people in Israel and 65 countries around the world take part in the memorial in the living room. The project, which brings together a million and a half people every year for exciting and meaningful meetings in tens of thousands of salons in Israel and around the world, seeks to prepare for the day when there will no longer be Holocaust survivors with us who can give their testimony, and to ensure that the memory of the Holocaust remains alive and relevant more than ever.
Bhut 8 B-21:15, Jose with the devil?
It is doubtful if the State of Israel would have been able to stand on its feet without the immigration from Germany, the money and the great knowledge that came with it. But today a combination of shame, fear of “another reason” for anti-Semitism and anti-Israelism and a reluctance to deal with the question of whether it is permissible to make a “contract with the devil” in order to save people – have resulted in a reluctance to deal with the issue. And so, even 91 years later, the agreement is still controversial, and the very mention that Jews signed a deal with Nazis is a hushed up story that few know about. A few days after the Nazis came to power in January 1933, when the swastika flag was hoisted over the German consulate in Jerusalem, Sam Cohen, a Jewish businessman, entered the building and offered the German consul an idea: a mechanism that would allow German Jews to leave with part of their property to Palestine. In his vision, the Jews would be happy to leave if they were allowed not to leave destitute; The Jews of the Land of Israel will be happy to receive them with the economic possibilities they will bring; The British would be happy to enjoy their property and the Germans would prevent a global economic boycott and banish the Jews to what was then perceived as the “end of the world”. And of course, such a deal can also pour a lot of money into Sam’s pocket. Cohen has many opponents, but the biggest enemy of the forged agreement comes from home: Anita, his wife. For her, you don’t negotiate with enemies, and you have to fight Nazis. For seven months, Sam tries to promote the agreement while the world is buzzing around him, until in August 1933 the unbelievable happens: the leaders of the Zionist Organization sign an agreement with Nazi Germany. About 60,000 Jews with a lot of property and motivation, arrived in the Land of Israel thanks to the transfer agreements and built the Israeli economy.
Hot 8 at 22:09, resistance – they fought back
It is common to think that in the Holocaust the Jews went “as sheep to the slaughter”, but according to studies and testimonies there were many cases of resistance to the Nazi enemy, starting with the famous Warsaw Uprising, in partisan groups like that of Abba Kovner, who were mainly involved in sabotaging railroads, and also a last act of revenge by the Sonderkommando in Auschwitz before the Nazis Destroy them too. The film claims that establishing schools and performing plays in the ghetto or attempts to escape through the sewers are also a form of resistance against an enemy that there was no real chance of overcoming.
