Description: Maurice Klein speaks with Suzi Smeed, who was just two years old when her family was swept up in the Hungarian Holocaust as the Nazis stormed into Budapest with the goal to round up all the Jews and freight them off to Auschwitz for extermination. Suzi and her parents escaped death several times at the hands of both the Nazis, followed by the Russians who liberated Hungary in April 1945 and then imposed their own brutal communist oppression. For the past five years Suzi has been working with the very important organisation Courage To Care, going out to schools and more, teaching future generations about the lessons of the Holocaust. Suzi has now put pen to paper writing her memoir "The Courage To Care" which is available on Amazon.

Title: Mythbuster on PallyWag Mahmoud Abbas at the UN on “Nakba Day” (*from 42:04  mins)

Description: Another on point L’Chaim Mythbuster from David Schulberg, dealing with PallyWag (pǎll´y̌wǎg n. Palestinian propagandist who frequently uses lies, misinformation and historical distortions) Mahmoud Abbas’ speech delivered at the invitation of the anti-Semitic United Nations, on a day proclaimed specially to commemorate the Nakba. PA President Abbas compared Israeli rhetoric to that of Goebbels; demanded Israel be suspended from the UN if it does not grant Palestinians a state and a “right of return” for millions of refugees; insisting that Israel had agreed to these steps in 1947 in order to join the UN and denied Jewish biblical ties to the Temple Mount. Abbas denied Zionist claims that Israel had made the desert bloom, as if Palestine was a desert and they had made the desert bloom. He claimed that Britain and the United States had colluded in the Balfour Declaration and had the chutzpah to give a country “they didn’t own to one that didn’t deserve”.
