Irena Sendler

Powerful stuff...Irena Sendler



There recently was a death of a 98 year-old lady named Irena. During
WWII, Irena, got permission to work in the Warsaw Ghetto, as a
Plumbing/Sewer specialist. She had an 'ulterior motive' ... She KNEW
what the Nazi's plans were for the Jews, (being German.) Irena smuggled
infants out in the bottom of the tool box she carried and she carried in
the back of her truck a burlap sack, (for larger kids..) She also had a
dog in the back that she trained to bark when the Nazi soldiers let her
in and out of the ghetto. The soldiers of course wanted nothing to do
with the dog and the barking covered the kids/infants noises.. During
her time of doing this, she managed to smuggle out and save 2500
kids/infants. She was caught, and the Nazi's broke both her legs, arms
and beat her severely. Irena kept a record of the names of all the kids
she smuggled out and kept them in a glass jar, buried under a tree in
her back yard. After the war, she tried to locate any parents that may
have survived it and reunited the family. Most had been gassed. Those
kids she helped got placed into foster family homes or adopted.

Last year Irena was up for the Nobel Peace Prize ... She was not
selected. Al Gore won, for a slide show on Global Warming.

In MEMORIAM - 63 YEARS LATER

It is now more than 60 years after the Second World War in Europe ended
This e-mail is being sent as a memorial chain, in memory of the six
million Jews, 20 million Russians, 10 million Christians and 1,900
Catholic priests who were murdered, massacred, raped, burned, starved
and humiliated with the German and Russian Peoples looking the other
way!

Now, more than ever, with Iraq , Iran , and others, claiming the
Holocaust to be 'a myth,' it's imperative to make sure the world
never forgets, because there are others who would like to do it again.








This is intended to reach 40 million people worldwide!


Join us and be a link in the memorial chain and help us distribute it
around the world either by copying this and emailing it or sending
other the link to this site.
