Let’s keep it simple. Auschwitz-Birkenau was an extermination camp. Many thousands went to their deaths there. However… not all of them were Jews. Thousands were Catholic Poles… thousands were Orthodox Russians… thousands were Roma. Having said this, read this piece, it’s a typical thing found in some circles. For instance, it was evil for some Jews to have caterwauled so loudly about a Carmelite convent on the site that the RCs shut it down. St Edith Stein, a convert to Catholicism and a Carmelite, died at Auschwitz at the hands of the Nazis. Therefore, the Carmelites had every right to “be there”… one of their own perished in the ovens! St Maksymilian Maria Kolbe died at Auschwitz… therefore, the Catholic Poles have a right to “be there”. The Jewish elements that don’t want a Christian dimension to Auschwitz are biased bigots of the worst-possible sort. Most are found in the so-called “Holocaust Industry”… they discredit real scholarship about the Holocaust (as typified by Raul Hilberg); they feed the flames of Anti-Semitism. They don’t represent most Jews nor do they typify the general Jewish attitude towards Auschwitz.
I do NOT abide “Holocaust Denial”… in like manner, I do NOT abide the “Holocaust Industry”. Both are distortions of and a mockery of the truth. If you tell the story of Auschwitz… tell the WHOLE story. The Carmelite convent belongs there and the Auschwitz Cross belongs there. They don’t make an Anti-Semitic statement of any sort. I stand for simple justice… that demands that we honour ALL of the victims. That’s that…
