I prayed I would never see this again but never doubted it was possible | Opinion
It is a sobering fact that more Jews were killed on that Saturday — a Jewish holy day — than any other day since the Holocaust.
David Mermelstein's Statement to the US Senate
"With all those promises, I applied to ICHEIC. They said they could not find my father’s name. They sent a check for $1000 as a 'humanitarian payment.' ICHEIC sent out 34,000 of those $1000 checks. Survivors deeply resent the idea of a 'humanitarian payment' instead of the funds we know our parents set aside in case of a disaster. The whole thing was an insult to survivors, and it still is."
Attorney Samuel Dubbin's Testimony to the US Senate
"Legislation is necessary today to restore Holocaust survivors’ rights to pursue claims in U.S. courts against global insurers who failed to honor policies they sold to Holocaust victims’ families."
