    MUSEUM OF TOLERANCE JERUSALEMO A SIMON TWIESENTHAL CENTERJ MUSEUM BECOME A PARTNER IN CREATION For 2,000 years, the Jewish people have yearned to return to their Promised Land. Wherever they were, they always faced East in their prayers, never giving up hope that one day they or their progeny would return. They were proud to drink wine or have a charity box in their home from the Land of Israel. In May of 1948, their collective dreams were finally realized when David Ben-Gurion announced to the world the creation of the State of Israel. At this historic moment, 71 years later, the Simon Wiesenthal Center is in the final stages of building its Museum of Tolerance Jerusalem – MOTJ – in the heart of the city center. The MOTJ is within walking distance to the Old City and the Western Wall. It is a few blocks from the King David and Waldorf Astoria hotels, two blocks from Ben Yehuda Street, around the corner from the Mamilla shopping mall and in close proximity to the American Embassy, the Knesset, Supreme Court, and the Prime Minister and President’s residences. World leaders and dignitaries who come to Jerusalem will visit the Museum of Tolerance Jerusalem for years to come. Rabbi Marvin Hier To accomplish our goal, we are looking to partner with philanthropists and visionaries from the United States and around the world who will support this once-in-a-lifetime project. Donors to the Museum of Tolerance Jerusalem will have the additional privilege of linking their name in perpetuity in the center of Jerusalem, the eternal capital of the Jewish people.

  • Expelled Nazis Paid Millions in Social Security
    Expelled Nazis paid millions in Social Security By DAVID RISING, RANDY HERSCHAFT and RICHARD LARDNEROctober 19, 2014 9:17 PM OSIJEK, Croatia (AP) — Former Auschwitz guard Jakob Denzinger lived the American dream. His plastics company in the Rust Belt town of Akron, Ohio, thrived. By the late 1980s, he had acquired the trappings of success: a Cadillac DeVille and a Lincoln Town Car, a lakefront home, investments in oil and real estate. Then the Nazi hunters showed up. In 1989, as the U.S. government prepared to strip him of his citizenship, Denzinger packed a pair of suitcases and fled to Germany. Denzinger later settled in this pleasant town on the Drava River, where he lives comfortably, courtesy of U.S. taxpayers. He collects a Social Security payment of about $1,500 each month, nearly twice the take-home pay of an average Croatian worker. Denzinger, 90, is among dozens of suspected Nazi war criminals and SS guards who collected millions of dollars in Social Security payments after being forced out of the United States, an Associated Press investigation found. The payments flowed through a legal loophole that has given the U.S. Justice Department leverage to persuade Nazi suspects to leave. If they agreed to go, or simply fled before deportation, they could keep their Social Security, according to interviews and internal government records. Like Denzinger, many lied about their Nazi pasts to get into the U.S. following World War II, and eventually became American citizens. Among those who benefited: —armed SS troops who guarded the Nazi network of camps where millions of Jews perished.

  • 'Owned' Vatican Guilt for the Church's Role in the Holocaust?
    Studies in Christian-Jewish Relations Volume 4 (2009): Madigan CP 1-18 CONFERENCE PROCEEDING Has the Papacy ‘Owned’ Vatican Guilt for the Church’s Role in the Holocaust? Kevin Madigan Harvard Divinity School Plenary presentation at the Annual Meeting of the Council of Centers on Christian-Jewish Relations November 1, 2009, Florida State University, Boca Raton, Florida Given my reflections in this presentation, it is perhaps appropriate to begin with a confession. What I have written on the subject of the papacy and the Shoah in the past was marked by a confidence and even self-righteousness that I now find embarrassing and even appalling. (Incidentally, this observation about self-righteousness would apply all the more, I am afraid, to those defenders of the wartime pope.) In any case, I will try and smother those unfortunate qualities in my presentation. Let me hasten to underline that, by and large, I do not wish to retract conclusions I have reached, which, in preparation for this presentation, have not essentially changed. But I have come to perceive much more clearly the need for humility in rendering judgment, even harsh judgment, on the Catholic actors, especially the leading Catholic actors of the period. As José Sanchez, with whose conclusions in his book on understanding the controversy surrounding the wartime pope I otherwise largely disagree, has rightly pointed out, “it is easy to second guess after the events.”1 This somewhat uninflected observation means, I take it, that, in the case of the Holy See and the Holocaust, the calculus of whether to speak or to act was reached in the cauldron of a savage world war, wrought in the matrix of competing interests and complicated by uncertainty as to whether acting or speaking would result in relief for or reprisal.

  • Rabbi Hits out at Pope's Veneration of Pius XII
    Rabbi hits out at Pope's veneration of Pius XII JACQUELINE MALEY RELIGION, SMH, 24 Dec 2009 POPE PIUS XII was a moral coward and his advancement towards sainthood demeans the memory of Holocaust victims and the Christians who helped them, according to Rabbi Jeremy Lawrence, the chief minister of Sydney's Great Synagogue. Pius XII, the Pope who presided over a Nazi-era Vatican, was put on the track to canonisation by a Vatican decree declaring him venerable last weekend. But the Vatican decision - made by the same committee which recognised the second miracle of the Australian nun Mary MacKillop - has been slammed by Jewish groups. Pius XII, Pope from 1939 to his death in 1958, has been criticised for not speaking out against the Holocaust generally and the Nazi round-up of Jews in Rome in 1943 in particular. ''How can one venerate a man who showed such cowardice, who was so close a bystander that he seemed to give his passive permission to the Nazis as the Jews were prised from his doorstep in Rome?'' Rabbi Lawrence said. The decision demeaned all the ''truly holy'' people who had previously been beatified and canonised. ''He insults the memory of the innocents who were martyred [in the Holocaust] and the saintly and courageous souls who risked and gave their lives to save others,'' said the rabbi, who is adviser to the Executive Council of Australian Jewry and the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies. The World Jewish Congress said the beatification of Pius XII was ''inopportune and premature'' and Rabbi Marvin Hier of the Simon Wiesenthal Centre, a Jewish human rights group in Washington, expressed amazement at the decision.
