:10:01
He felt it an act of a coward.
:10:03
If you're going to take your life,
take a few Germans with you.
:10:09
Czerniakow, who was in a position
of authority. . . .
:10:13
Had he said, ''People,
you are going to your death.
:10:17
Don't surrender.
:10:18
Defend yourselves with whatever
you have, against the deportation. ''
:10:23
This would have had
a colossal importance.
:10:28
The moment he knew
what was going on. . .
:10:31
. . .what was really the intention
of the Germans, that's what he did.
:10:36
What could he do more than that?
:10:39
From July 23 to September 1 2,
deportations continue...
:10:43
...block by block,
neighborhood by neighborhood.
:10:47
Yet many still
do not realize the truth.
:10:51
Hunger was terrible.
:10:53
So at the Umschlagplatz. . .
:10:55
. . .Germans handed out three kilos
of bread and one kilo of marmalade. . .
:11:00
. . .to anyone
who showed up voluntarily.
:11:03
And Jews were saying:
:11:05
''See? If they were
to take us to our deaths. . .
:11:09
. . .they wouldn't give us
bread and marmalade. ''
:11:12
So how can you believe?
:11:14
It's unbelievable, by the way.
:11:17
It's so unbelievable. . .
:11:20
. . .that out of the blue. . . .
:11:22
How can you believe
that somebody is going to kill you. . .
:11:27
. . .just because you are a Jew?
:11:32
So people don't believe in it.
:11:36
You don't want to, and you can't.
:11:41
Sometimes the truth can be. . .
:11:43
. . .not emotionally involving
or dramatic or plausible.
:11:47
If I were to say I'd crash a plane
into the World Trade Center. . .
:11:52
. . .and both centers, hit by two
planes, were going to collapse. . .
:11:56
. . .no one in America who's not
judged mentally deficient. . .
