Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Testemonies-some of the earliest ever recorded-and rare archival footage reveal the Nazi era through the memories of those who were there: a Hitler Youth, a Jesuit priest, resistance fighters, death camp survivors, American POWs, liberators. Witness: Voices from the Holocaust presents a vivid, unique image of "history's darkest hour."

5.0 out of 5 stars Witness, Voices from the Holocaust, December 20, 2000

This review is from: Witness: Voices from the Holocaust [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is the most heartwretching story of the Holocaust told by the people who endured the hell that belonged to Hitler and his army. It is a video that should be found in all homes. All people, of all faiths, of all colors, should make themselves and the families aware of this terrible time on the earth. I have both the book and the video. Anyone who has a belief God and the hearafter owes it to mankind to listen to these stories told by those who endured this horror. My own copy is placed with a Bible as a tribute to all those who people who suffered deaths as tourerous as that of Jesus. It's not that I am terrible religious, it's that I'm so moved by these stories. And I'm ashamed. Ashemed to be part of a world in which this occurred. These people and the attrochies done to them and their loved ones must never be forgotten. That horrible period in time is a disgrace to God Himself. To understand that a man as evil as Hitler walked this earth is proof enough to me that the devil has many names....one is Hitler. The danger in forgetting this horrible negates all the suffering these beautiful people were forced to endure. This horror must never happen again! No one has the right to do what Hitler and his soldiers did. If there is in fact a hell, I pray that Hilter and his army will forever burn. No peace should ever be granted to them.

5.0 out of 5 stars A HEART BREAKER, December 22, 2002

By 

Christian Alois Schneider (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Witness: Voices from the Holocaust [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This event will never be forgotten, and should never be forgotten. We should use the Nazi Holocaust as an example of what the outcome to segregation and racism can bring. This is an excellent material of education for future generations because it will show the importance of cultural diversity. Diversity is what makes America so great. Hitler had a terrible childhood and was abused by his father, however, this is no excuse for what he did. He had wild and crazy ideas, such as conquering the world. Hitler destroyed countries and murdered 12 million during the Nazi Holocaust for no reason. It was pointless because he did not accomplish anything good for Germany. The only thing he did was to deteriorate that country. The Nazi Holocaust was an event that marked the world forever. The World together should never let something this happen again!
