DaasY,
There were many Yidden from the same part of Hungary/Romania that the Satmar Rebbe was from who survived those dark days, and found this whole chapter very painful. There were many who lost relatives and friends who, tragically, had been advised not to go to Palestine, and to stay in Europe. Most of these survivors are no longer with us. I therefore feel that this part of our history is best addressed with silence. We must not allow the events to be forgotten. We must remember, but without editorializing, judging and analyzing.
In a similar vein, I find it deeply hurtful to read articles attempting to rehabilitated Kastner, when those who were in Hungary at the time of his betrayal of his people, can no longer give testimony. The only ones who speak are a man who was eleven years old at the time, and his descendants!
Mrs Layosh is entitled to an opinion. But we don’t really know who saved whom. Or who may have prevented others from being saved. We have to know that the events were all from Shamayim, and respond as Aharon Hakohein did, to the great tragedy that befell him.
