Miriam Novak - the Israeli Representative to the United Nations Delivers a Breathtaking Speech to the U.N. General Assembly - on June 19 - 2024!
Ms. Novak - in a nutshell - brilliantly - delineated the history of the Jewish nation during the last two thousand years. She - skillfully - emphasized the Jewish achievements for the world - as well as pointed out the nations which embraced the Nazi Weimar Republic - lead by the Chancellor Adolph Hitler.
It needs to be noted - which is interesting - that many nations like Turkey, Switzerland, Italy - attempted to remain - ostensibly - neutral - thus they did not - officially - comply with Hitler's policy of exterminating the Jews.
However - in spite of Italy's - Dictator Mussolini's - eventually - being forced to comply with Hitler's "request" to round up the Jews - still - the Italian police and the army - largely - resisted against the Nazi's anti-Jewish directives and - frequently - refused to round up the Jews - as much as they could. Thus - out of 50 thousand of Italian Jews - "only" about 5 thousand were sent to the death camps.
Poland had a dubious distinction - according to many historians - of the cooperation with the Nazis - however - to Poland's credit - according to Israeli Yad Vashem's statistics - over 6 thousand Poles - the largest number of all the European countries - were granted the highest Israeli title of the "Righteous among the Nations" - due to - fully documented - risking of their lives - in order to "hide the Jews" from the Nazis.
It's a subject worth exploring. How does the nations resist the evil leaders? According to many historians - the resistance movements in many - occupied by the Nazis - European countries - inflicted many blows to the Weimar Nazi Republic.
