  • Simon Wiesenthal, known as the “Nazi Hunter,” dedicated his life to seeking justice for the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust. After assembling a list of Nazi war criminals, he relentlessly tracked them down one by one and ensured they faced trial, with his most significant victory being the capture of Adolf Eichmann. Though Wiesenthal was accused of embellishment and self-promotion, his relentless pursuit of justice ensured that the memory of the Holocaust would continue to endure to this day.

    Simon Wiesenthal was a Remarkable gentleman, God bless him for ever!!
    I believe his work and his colleges help to bring a little relief to all of us, who suffered in different ways the consequences of the holocaust.

    Simon Wiesenthal was a wonderful person. He never gave up hunting down Nazi war criminals and partially due to his efforts many Nazi war criminals were captured and brought to justice for their crimes. In addition he demanded that the world recognize the other people who were persecuted and killed during the Holocaust such as Roma people, dissidents of the Nazis, and many other people and partially thanks to him the Holocaust is now acknowledged as a crime against all of humanity and he fought against racism and hate wherever they were. Because he fought against racism and hate where ever they were he would probably get along well with Martin Luther King Jr and probably supported the civil rights movement in the United States due to his personal experience with bigotry and hate during the Holocaust which likely made him sympathize with African Americans due to both of them having suffered from bigotry and hate. In another life he may have been a civil rights activist in the United States supporting the civil rights movement or maybe even marching along with other civil rights activists either in the March On Washington or The March On Selma but he did good things in another way that being hunting down Nazi war criminals and bringing them to justice for their crimes which is also a honorable and nice and understandable thing to do. Rest In Peace Simon Wiesenthal. You will never be forgotten.

    Perhaps he did embellish some things but, I believe it was done to draw more attention to the holocaust and finding the perpetrators that survived. We should focus not just on what a person says but also try to understand why they're saying what they are.

Only by learning to judge people as individuals can we truly end hate. Please see the person , get to know that person. Please do not hate them because they pray to different g d, their skin is a different color from yours or even if their sexual preference is different from yours.

    Antisemitism lives in the foundations of human society and human nature. The human ego-the desire to enjoy at the expense of others and nature-evolves throughout history and during a person’s life. The more it grows, the more it feels an opposite force also dwelling within. That opposite force is called a “point in the heart.” Contrary to our egoistic desires that wish solely to absorb pleasures into themselves, the point in the heart is a desire that has potential to develop into a desire that loves, gives and positively connects to others.
    The point in the heart is also known as the seed of the soul, as we can develop it to discover our soul-the connection that underlies those very points. The realization of the potential encased in this small point of desire is the ability to rise above the human ego, where instead of detaching from one another through our growing egoism, i.e. increasingly prioritizing self-benefit over benefiting others, we instead prioritize the benefit of others and positive human connection.
    The point in the heart is the opposite of our egoistic nature. There are people who host only the negative egoistic force, and there are people who have both the negative egoistic force and the positive altruistic force. When both positive and negative forces coexist in us, then we become called “Jews” or “Israel” according to our inner essence. Likewise, if we solely host the negative egoistic force with no revelation yet of the point in the heart, then we are called “nations of the world” according to that essence.
    We underwent several stages of development throughout history. The point in the heart first surfaced throughout human society in ancient Babylon. The Babylonians who felt the inner urge to seek something deeper in life beyond the earthly egoistic desires joined Abraham, who taught a method for how to nurture the point in the heart in order to rise above the ego and positively connect. Abraham organized the Babylonians who wanted to study with him into a group, and he called this group “Israel,” which is made up of the words “Yashar Kel” (“straight to God”), i.e. people who aim themselves directly at the attainment of nature’s upper force of love, bestowal and connection, which is opposed to the force existing in human beings, the force of reception.
    Since Abraham’s time, the two groups-Israel and the nations of the world-have undergone much development. Some from the Israel camp left the group to pursue their natural egoistic inclinations, i.e. with an inclination to the nations of the world, while some from the nations of the world felt that they possess a special closeness and connection, which draws them to Israel. In other words, Jews are not a nationality, but they are people who host the point in the heart, which associates them with the positive force of nature, and which is opposite to the egoistic force that we are born and raised with by nature.
    The source of antisemitism is in the contrast and conflict between the two opposite desires of our inborn egoism and the point in the heart that can develop our ability to rise above the human ego.

    Similarly, negro Jews once existed in Jamaica and Surinam as a result of extensive concubinage of Spanish and Portuguese Jews with negroes. A very large proportion bear Jewish names, but have generally lapsed from Judaism. A similar community sprang into existence in Surinam, a hundred and fifty years ago; English and Portuguese Jews intermarrying with the blacks, and a mongrel language, Joe Tongo, Jew’s language, arising from a mixture of the three languages. A negro-English dialect, and a negro-Portuguese dialect with Hebrew words sprang up; the two later merged. These Surinam negro Jews, having a dialect of their own, have not lapsed so generally as those of Jamaica.

    thousand nominal Christians at Manquenzo, about eighty miles from the coast. They were then thirty-five miles north of the Congo, having recently removed thither from Songo, a district some ninety miles southwest, south of the mouth of the Congo. - The point is of value, as showing continual migration of nominally converted African peoples. Abbé Proyart was much interested by the fact that negro parents occasionally had children that re- mained all their lives as white as Europeans. These always had blonde or red hair and beard, with feeble sight. They were ac- counted extraordinary or divine beings, and were ranked above the native mgangas or fetish-priests. It did not occur to the Abbé to correlate the facts with the old Portuguese mission and Romish priestly pretensions. We may compare Winwoode Reade’s state- ment that he met negroes in Guinea who called themselves Portu- guese, and boasted their Portuguese ancestry, and scorned the other negroes around them though not distinguishable from them.
