Special Report

The Baltimore Jewish Times and Phil Jacobs its editor, have their facts wrong - again. I have previously met with Mr. Jacobs and members of his staff to provide them with some insight into my life. I opened the wounds which the Nazis inflicted upon me and shared with them the terrible details that only a survivor of the Holocaust could know and experience.

Beyond that, I let them know that I had a marriage which was good, at least as good as one could have when it took place in the Theresienstadt ghetto. I had married a man who was at the outset was kind and considerate. Through the cruelty of the camps, that man ceased to exist as he was. For my own well-being, I could not live with him. Following the war, the marriage was formally dissolved. When I spoke of my husband existing no more, it was done in a way to keep what was private to me and him just that.

A failed marriage thanks to the Nazis. How difficult can that be for the editor of the Times to comprehend? It's apparent that based on their April 9, 2010 article, insight is not what they seek. Again, they have chosen to besmirch my good name and ignore the facts.
