Another Jewish Holocaust-Liar subcombs to the Factual Pressure of  Growing Revisionist Education

Herman Rosenblat, another despicable holocaust-liar, wrote a book about his "Gas Chamber Appointment". When he was 11-years old, the liar claimed, his family were rounded up by German soldiers in a ghetto in Poland. Later he was allegedly sent to Buchenwald. Roseblat allowed his sick fantasies to soar. He wrote that he had to work in the cemetery. One day, Rosenblat suspired,  he saw a young girl on the other side of the fence and asked her for food. For 6 (sic) months she brought him food, until he was moved to another camp, Rosenblat fantasized: "Nearly seven months later, my brothers and I were crammed into a coal car and shipped to the Theresienstadt camp in Czechoslovakia. 'Don’t return,' I told the girl that day. 'We’re leaving.' I turned toward the barracks and didn’t look back, didn’t even say good-bye to the girl whose name I’d never learned, the girl with the apples. We were at Theresienstadt for three months."

Rosenblat revealed how the German "gassers" had made a gas-chamber appointment for him, obviously deliberately after the war, at 10 a.m. sharp: "The war was winding down and Allied forces were closing in, yet my fate seemed sealed. On May 10, 1945, I was scheduled to die in the gas chamber at 10:00 A.M. In the quiet of dawn, I tried to prepare myself. So many times death seemed ready to claim me, but somehow I’d survived."

15 years later, the "holocaust survivor" remembered, he was set up on a blind date with the girl that threw apples over the fence at Buchenwald. Isn't this heartbreaking?

Rosenblat was honoured by  Jewish organisations around the world for his outstanding "memories": "The Holocaust survivor and his wife — who met as children in a concentration camp — were honored at his bar mitzvah last month at the Beth Shalom Chabad synagogue in Mineola, N.Y. 'We live in a time where we need hope and a positive outlook in life, and Herman’s story reminds us that goodness will always overcome badness, and light will overcome darkness', Rabbi Anchelle Perl said after the service." (jewishsf.com, March 17, 2006)

Rosenblat's lies were scheduled to be published by Berkley Books, an imprint of Penguin Group (USA) by February 2009.

Not too long ago, Rosenblat would have gotten away with his "holocaust memoir". Now, however, for fear of the growing popularity of revisionist education, even hard core Holocaust-Liar Deborah Lipstadt felt compelled to condemn Rosenblat's gas chamber appointment story: "Let me focus only on the most fundamental one: Buchenwald had no gas chambers. In May 1945 no one was still being gassed. Moreover, Jews were not told ahead of time that they were going to be gassed. The whole idea behind the gassing was surprise and deception. [There is another version on the Internet that places the camp at Terezin/ Theresienstadt and the author says that they were told to report to a section of the camp the next morning at 10 a.m. and they knew this meant they were to be gassed. But there were no gas chambers in Terezin.]" (Lipstadt.blogspot.com, 02Dec2007)

As a result of inroad making revisionist education the publication of Rosenblat's "holocaust memoir" had to be cancelled

Publisher of disputed Holocaust memoir cancels book

Liar Herman Rosenblat and his lying wife

 

The publisher of a disputed Holocaust memoir has canceled the book, adding the name Herman Rosenblat to an increasingly long line of literary fakers and bringing down with a crash his story - embraced by Oprah Winfrey, among others - of meeting his future wife at a Nazi concentration camp.

"I wanted to bring happiness to people," Rosenblat said in a statement issued Saturday through his agent, Andrea Hurst. "I brought hope to a lot of people. My motivation was to make good in this world."

Rosenblat's Angel at the Fence had been scheduled to come out in February, but Berkley Books, an imprint of Penguin Group (USA), withdrew the memoir Saturday following allegations by scholars, friends and family members that his tale was untrue.

Berkley Books is canceling publication of Angel at the Fence after receiving new information from Herman Rosenblat's agent, Andrea Hurst, the publisher said in a statement. Berkley will demand that the author and the agent return all money that they have received for this work.

A couple of days earlier, Berkley had offered a qualified defense of the book, saying it was a work of memory, a story whose truth was known only to the author.

Hurst released her own statement, saying that Rosenblat had acknowledged to her that part of his memoir was not true. "He'd invented the crux of this amazing love story - about the girl at the fence who threw him an apple."

Hurst, interviewed Saturday by The Associated Press, declined to offer details of Rosenblat's book deal, but said the amount of money was not a great deal. She said that rights to the book also had been sold to publishers in Poland, France and other countries.

Rosenblat, 79, a resident of the Miami area, was virtually unknown to the general public until the 1990s when he began speaking of how he came to know his wife, Roma Radzicky. According to Rosenblat and his wife, he was a prisoner at a sub-camp of Buchenwald in Nazi Germany and she a young Jewish girl whose family was pretending to be Christian and lived nearby.

For months, they would meet on opposite sides of a barbed-wire fence, where she would sneak him apples and bread. Rosenblat was then transferred to another camp and the two lost touch, until the 1950s, when they were reunited by accident - on a blind date - in New York. They soon married and earlier this year celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary.

The Rosenblats were interviewed twice over the years by Winfrey, who has called their romance the single greatest love story ... we've ever told on the air. They have inspired a children's book and a feature film adaptation is scheduled to begin next year. ...

But scholars doubted his story, noting that the layout of the sub-camp made such an encounter at the fence virtually unthinkable (They would have met right by an SS barracks). A recent article in The New Republic quoted friends and family members who were outraged by Rosenblat, so much so that one of his brothers stopped speaking to him.
