The Holocaust
without survivors
By David
Ramati
Tonight as the sun sets on 7
March 2013 (sundown (28th of Nisan, 5773) the Jewish communities world-wide
will pause to remember the six million who died in the holocaust which
destroyed Europe’s Jews and left the world Jewish community reeling in horror.
In spite of the
pronouncements of “never again” and in spite of the righteous anger of right
thinking people all over the world, the sad truth is…this has happened before
and will happen again, and, in fact, is happening today.
Without in any way
intending to diminish from this day of remembrance, nor to diminish from the
horrors of the Armenian Genocide, or “Wounded Knee” or the slave ships that
brought suffering masses to foreign shores many of which would die in chains
while still at sea someone must speak out against what can only be described as a new holocaust of staggering proportions.
The difference between
these horrors committed by “men” against their fellow man, and the holocaust
going on even now as this article is being written is: in this holocaust there are NO
survivors. No Nuremburg trials will
punish the guilty, no remembrance days will honor the dead, and little or no
guilt will be expressed or felt by the doctors and women who are the
perpetrators of mass murder nor, significantly, will the judicial systems of
the world label this as premeditated murder and take steps to abolish it.
Facts are dry, and as
Stalin once said, “One death is a tragedy; one million is a statistic.”
In spite of this
attempt to trivialize mass murder, the facts glare out at us and if we are not
stone, must move us to deeply reflect on them.
An example is the
Summary of registered abortions world- wide through August 2012 which was
compiled by Wm. Robert Johnston. He quietly
points out that from 1922 – 2012 there were 907,000,000 reported abortions, and
estimated 992,000,000 total abortions worldwide. He goes on to add that currently an estimated
global monthly average: 1,039,000 abortions.
One million a month!
Significantly, and to bring
this home, this is not something limited to third world countries. Countries that have participated or been victimized
by other holocausts in the past are included in this indictment against
humanity:
To name a few:
Armenia: 1992-2010: registered
abortions: 352,384
Canada: 1970-2009:
registered abortions: 3,452,776
United States: Up to 2010:
registered abortions: 54,903,632
Israel: 1979-2010: 611,190
(A number which reflects close to 50% of the 1.5 million Jewish children known
to have been killed by the Nazis in WWII)
According to penal code of
1977, it is illegal for a woman to have an abortion in Israel ....unless:
- The woman is under 17 or over 40
- The baby is conceived out of
wedlock
- The baby may have a physical or
mental defect
- Continuing the pregnancy will put
the woman in physical or mental danger
In recent years, the number
of women seeking the approval of such committees in Israel
has plateaued at about 20,000 requests per year. 98 percent of these
requests are approved.
The latest figures released
by the The Central Bureau of Statistics for 2010:
- 42 percent of women approaching
the committee are already married,
- Only 13 percent are underage
(under 19 years of age). In Israel there are very few live
births among underage girls – the ease of getting an abortion by committee
“negates the need” according to a government report.
- 30 percent of those requesting
abortions have had one already in the past.
- Over half the women applying
for abortion through a committee use the "out of wedlock" clause
as their justification.
- The Ethiopian ethnic group has the
largest number of abortions per capita, with Russian olim coming in a
close second.
This is a strange phenomenon
in a country that until recently has encouraged families to have more and more
children (through government subsidies) with the justification that the Jewish
people must rebuild after the holocaust.
While it is true that many
Jews and Gentiles do not consider a fetus a “person” and therefore it is
impossible to murder a non- person, it must be remembered that the Nazi’s
justified the murder of the Jews by using the same logic: they were not people, nor were the American
Indians, or the Armenians, or the black slaves being transported to Europe and
the Americas.
The old saying that “In
order to kill someone you must first dehumanize him” applies to the Fetus. The psychology of dehumanization begins with
dark seeds like abortion on demand. We must remind the world that doctors, who
kill babies up to and even into the last days of the 9th-month are
guilty of murder and the mothers are no less guilty for going to them. This holocaust is one in which there are no
survivors. Who then will speak for
them? For whom does the bell toll? It tolls for thee.
