Forgetting the Holocaust
by Monte Dunn
(as appeared in the February 2000 issue of The Blue Press)

After the Nazi death camps were liberated, the cry went up, ?Never
Again!? In spite of this, the waning years of our century have seen a
surfeit of genocide — from the killing fields of Cambodia to the
machete dismemberments in Rwanda to the ?ethnic cleansing? horrors of
the Balkans. One can only assume that somewhere the shade of Hitler is smiling. The terror and bloodshed go on, and yet the memories fade and
the lessons are not learned.

In our digital and cybernetic world, holocaust revisionists can
claim that all the films and documents are just so many ?special
effects.? As a Jew myself, I am appalled that so many Jewish
politicians, journalists, celebrities, and even Rabbis embrace the
bizarre belief that if governments alone, and not private citizens, are
allowed to own firearms, this will assure an end to genocide. The fact is, every effective genocide has been government-run. A
?productive day? at Auschwitz accounted for more deaths than a century
of KKK lynchings in terms of numbers killed (this is not meant to in any
way diminish the enormity of racist policies and crimes in America).
Let us face the facts: gun control has a racist history. In the wake
of America?s Civil War and Reconstruction, the Black Codes included a
contemporary version of Saturday Night Special Laws aimed at disarming
freed slaves who could afford only the cheapest of guns (which still
beats being unarmed when the KKK is at your door!). New York?s 1911
Sullivan Law was aimed at disarming immigrant Italians and Jews, Whom
District Attorney Arthur Train believed were congenitally criminal
species. At the Stephen Wise Free Synagogue in New York, where my mother is a
congregant, the Rabbi delivered an anti-gun, anti-NRA sermon on Rosh
Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. He neglected to mention the KKK, the
Aryan Nations, and other hate groups, nor did he mention the anniversary
of the October uprising at the Sobibor concentration camp. There, in
1943, Jewish civilians and Russian-Jewish soldiers staged the most
successful death camp revolt of the war. Simple tailors and shoemakers
lured members of the ?Master Race? in for fittings for new SS uniforms
and boots. They were, in fact, being fitted for graves. With cooking
knives and wood axes, the Nazis were cut down and relieved of their
Lugers and Walthers. The Jews used these to liberate Mauser rifles,
machine guns and Sturmgewehrs (real assault rifles — not
Feinstein/Clinton semiautomatic versions).
Hundreds of prisoners were able to flee. Some joined the
resistance, some perhaps to die, but as free men and women. Others
survived to hunt down their persecutors and to bring them to justice in
the postwar years. These Jews were genuine heroes, but today the Jewish
community seems to forget these heroes and create a new type of hero
from the likes of Senators Dianne Feinstein and Charles Schumer. These
are the betrayers who would leave the Jews as unarmed in America as they
were in Germany. You may recall that Germany passed comprehensive gun
laws of the Gun Control Act of 1968 type in 1938. This was shortly
before Kristallnacht — the Night of Broken Glass — when Jewish
synagogues, businesses, and homes were burned, windows shattered, and
scores were beaten or killed — disarmed and unable to defend themselves
against state-sanctioned violence. [You think it couldn?t happen
again? Does the name ?Wako? bring anything to mind?]
I recently heard a story. A group of Israeli schoolchildren had
gone on a field trip to Yad Yashem, Israel?s own Holocaust Memorial. A
death camp survivor was telling them of the horrors he had lived
through. Afterwards, he asked for questions. One child raised a hand
and shyly asked, ?Why didn?t we send our army?? Of course, this child
had grown up in a world where Israel was a nation with its own, very
formidable army. But we must never forget there was a time when not
only was there no Israeli Defense Force, but also that Europe?s Jews had
been disarmed by law. Governments are never disarmed, and governments
alone are capable of genocide. I cannot understand how any Jew — or
any individual with some knowledge of history — can oppose the civilian ownership of firearms.
If the death camps at Masada some 2,000 years ago and at Sobibor
less than 60 years ago should teach us anything, it is that it is better
to die on your feet than live on your knees. Governments that insist on
having a monopoly on the instruments of violence are governments that do
not trust their people and do not value their people?s freedom. Such a
government should not itself be trusted.
