Auschwitz Survivor Searches for His Long Lost Twin Brother on Facebook – You Can Help!

It’s said in the television industry that broadcasters are experiencing “Holocaust fatigue”. You simply can’t pitch stories on the Holocaust anymore. They feel that they’ve been there, done that. Today is Holocaust Memorial Day in Israel. The television stations are not broadcasting, stores are closed, traffic is minimal and at 10am in the morning an air raid siren sounds across the country and everything and everyone comes to a standstill. As I write this, the eerie national silence is deafening. We can’t afford to experience Holocaust fatigue. Six million Jews were murdered less than 70 years ago for no reason other than the fact that they were Jewish. A million and a half of them were children. Today, Israel is being threatened with nuclear annihilation by the Holocaust denying leaders of Iran. No room for “Holocaust fatigue” here.

For some, however, the Holocaust has never ended. Think for a moment of those survivors who, in their old age, are now suffering from Alzheimer’s. They get to relive the Holocaust everyday – with their families watching the unrelenting suffering in real time.

One Holocaust survivor has decided to reclaim his past by finding his long lost twin. They were separated at the age of 4 but they have sequential Auschwitz numbers tattooed by the Nazis on their arms. The brother now living in Israel is hoping that through Facebook he will find his twin that he suspects was adopted by a Christian family and taken to America after the war. You can help by sharing the Facebook page. It is a moral outrage to experience Holocaust fatigue. The only moral stance is to fight against the Nazis, past and present. By reuniting two elderly men, separated by the forces of evil when they were children, we can win a small victory against the forces of darkness that swept the planet not that long ago, and are attempting to do so again.
