ril. Tra il 1939 e il 1945, circa 200000 tedeschi furono vittime delle uccisioni per «eutanasia». I numerosi responsabili parlavano eufemisticamente di «sollievo», «interruzione della vita», «morte misericordiosa», «aiuto a morire» o, appunto, di «eutanasia». Costoro agivano in parziale segretezza, ma nel bel mezzo della società. Molti tedeschi erano favorevoli a una morte violenta per i «mangiatori inutili», tanto più durante la guerra: pochi condannarono con fermezza le uccisioni, i più tacevano per vergogna, non volevano conoscere troppi particolari. E andò avanti cosi anche dopo il 1945. Solo in casi eccezionali le famiglie si ricordavano delle zie, dei figli piccoli, dei fratelli o dei nonni assassinati. Soltanto oggi, dopo circa settant'anni, l'incantesimo svanisce. Lentamente riaffiorano quei dimenticati che furono costretti a morire perché percepiti come pazzi, molesti o imbarazzanti, perché anormali, pericolosi per la comunità, inabili al lavoro o costantemente bisognosi di cure, perché gravavano di un marchio d'infamia le loro famiglie. Ancora oggi, nelle manifestazioni, nei libri e sui monumenti il più delle volte i nomi di queste vittime non vengono citati. Eppure sono soprattutto i nomi dei morti, oggi, a dover essere ricordati. I disabili, i deboli di niente e gli storpi che furono abbandonati e costretti a morire non erano affatto non-persone anonime. Questo libro racconta la storia del loro assassinio deliberato, in quella che è nota come la famigerata Aktion T4.

Was a Jewish Military Union, founded by David Wdowinski (1895-1970) . "The ZZW never integrated into the main underground fighting organization in Warsaw, the Zydowska Organizacja Bojowa (The Jewish Fighting Organization) , but the two groups did coordinate their activities to a certain extent during the spring of 1943. The ZZW did not participate in the first armed clash in the ghetto, in January 1943. During the April uprising its fighters fought fiercely near Muranowska Square, in one of the major battles of the rebellion. Other ZZW men fought in the Brushmakers' area of the ghetto, and still others in the area where supplies were kept. Wdowinski was captured by the Germans during the uprising and was sent to various concentration camps but survived. He settled in the United States after the war and in 1961 was a witness at the Eichmann Trial. He published his memoirs, And We Are Not Saved (1963) . " (Rozette, EJ, 2007) Very good condition.

German soldiers first passed through Ratne at the end of June 1941, but Nazi rule was established in the town only in July. Between the retreat of the Soviets and the arrival of German security forces and administrators, locals plundered Jewish homes and businesses. Shortly after the Germans arrived, they shot 27 Jews and 30 Soviet prisoners of war. Acting through the Ukrainian police, they also introduced an array of anti-Jewish measures: Jews had to wear identifying armbands (later yellow patches) , comply with a curfew, hand in valuables, including ritual objects, and provide forced labor. It was forbidden for Jews to speak to Ukrainians. As early as July 1941, Jews from the countryside were already being relocated to Ratne. In the spring of 1942, a ghetto was set up there. After a partisan raid on Ratne in June 1942, the Germans shot more than 110 Jews, along with a few Ukrainians. The Destruction of the Jewish Community. In August, the Germans recruited Ukrainian peasants from Prokhid to dig pits at a nearby sand lot. On August 26, the ghetto was liquidated by a unit from the Gestapo outpost in Brest supported by the local German Gendarmerie post and Ukrainian auxiliary police force. Although several hundred Jews fled before they could be taken to Prokhid. Many others hid in the ghetto. Most were eventually caught and murdered as well.
