Ben Hecht wrote this book in 1961. In the last 15 years, many historical studies have corroborated Hecht's findings: Ben Gurion and his socialist cronies, as well as most of the Jewish leaders in the U.S., did almost nothing to save the Jews of Europe in 1933 - 45; in many cases, they hindered efforts of rescue. Perfidy describes the shamful Kasztner affair where close to a million Hungarian Jews might have been saved but were betrayed in 1944. A similar pattern, however, occurred throughtout the Holocaust: The Jewish socialists in pre Israel Palestine bowed to the British who did not want any Jewish refugees in Palestine which would have offended the Arabs. The American Jewish leaders considered FDR as God. FDR, and his administration, did not want to help the Jews so everybody kept quiet and did nothing, including the Russians. The only ones who fought this conspiracy of silence were the Irgun members. Hecht dramatizes all these historical facts very well. No doubt, the Allies did not want anything to interfere with the war effort, but their excuses for not trying to save the Jews were cynical and outright anti-semetic. The war years were full of monumental rescue undertakings by the Allies such as the shipping of 40,000 British children to the U.S, and the rescue of several thousands Yuguslav partisans. In 1944, due to the Irgun's public relation campaigns and mounting political pressure, FDR was forced to create the War Refugee Board which saved about 200,000 Jews from slaughter (according to historians' estimates). Hecht did not mention it in Perfidy which does not deal with the U.S. response to the Holocaust. Although Hecht's description of the shamful betrayal of the European Jews by Ben-Gurion, Weiztman, and others has been well documented in recent years, one should not ignore the real Nazi collaborators who did not want millions of refugees on their hands: the British empire, the Middle East Arabs, and the FDR administration. Perfidy includes some prophetic insights which I fully agree with: Governments, and other human organizations, are doomed. Humanity will pay for the torture and murder of six million inocent people.

This non fiction recounting of the slander trial against Malchiel Greenwald is one of the most fascinating and at the same time sickening and eye opening accounts of an amoral spiral during the last century. The fact that the most "respected" Jewish leaders of their time were part of the betrayals described in this book is the most disturbing thing to contemplate. I am sickened but educated by reading this book. The author , Mr. Hecht, should have received the nobel prize for his effort.

Describing a historic tragedy of monumental proportion, Hecht takes the reader on a graphic tour of the hell that was the holocaust, and unmasks many shameless opportunists as it unfolds. We meet the REAL Weizman, Ben-Gurion,and company. We see firsthand the evil indifference of Stephen Wise and his self-hating ilk. But we also meet those rare specimens of indomitability, such as Hanna Sennesh and Rabbi Michael Dov Weissmandel. The extreme heights and depths to which human beings can soar or plunge under duress are all part of this incredible story. The book can be difficult to read at times, for the stark horrors and unbelievable cruelty it describes. Truth, however, is the best teacher, and if holocaust studies are to ever be taken seriously, this book should be a mandatory inclusion in any such course taught.

The Perfidy review (the only one listed) is accurate as far as it goes but contains one remarkable error. The reviewer states that Perfidy is fiction. It is not. Lesen Sie weiter...
