Dear friends,
I fully agree with Gaby and Eddy's reaction. If the so-called "executive
director" does not agree to change his mind, we should boycott the whole
idea and ask them not to use any of the pictures or other documents, or
information on our website that we had agreed that they be used. I also
fully agree with Hardy Breier's argument as expressed in his e-mail dated
March 18,2008. If the "executive director" and the mayor want to
manipulate the history of the Jewish Community during the years 1940-1946 we
should not just protest but insist that our community's history should be
totally excluded.
All the best, Abraham K.
