Warsaw Ghettograd - The 1943 Uprising

War Stories ^ | 24/4/24 | Mark Felton

[Eleutheria5]

81 years ago this week, in the Polish capital Warsaw, desperate Jewish fighters fought a long and bloody battle against Himmler's SS, the Germans determined to crush the Jewish Ghetto revolt with the utmost brutality. This is an omnibus edition of the story of the uprising, nicknamed 'Ghettograd' by the Germans as the fighting resembled that at Stalingrad.

[Eleutheria5]

In case you don't have F-14s or nuclear bombs, take heart if a monstrous military power comes after you and yours. This is one story of a courageous and determined but poorly armed and trained group of amateurs holding their own, at least for a while. It should be studied.

[PGR88]

Mark Felton is fantastic.

A treasure.

Last year I was in Poland for an athletic competition and touristing. A must visit is the Warsaw Rising Museum. So many stories of real heroism put modern “heroes” in perspective.

I concur. It's well worth it. But just to clarify, that was for the 1944 Rising, not the 1943 Ghetto Uprising.

Yes, he’s top notch. I’ve subscribed to his channel for a long time.

Jews. Why not say it?

“Mila 18” by the author, Leon Uris. Not only a fantastic read about the uprising, but a truly invaluable preparatory resource for the times ahead.

[Eleutheria5]

Why is it important to say it. But just for you, kiddo. Yes. Jews, of whom we Jews are very proud.

[SkyDancer]

Because. It’s just like Omar whatever her name is said about 9/11 “Some people did something” - Jews have been belittled for centuries. We are who we are and proud of it.

[Eleutheria5]

Cool. Wanna conspire with me to take over the world;?

[dfwgator]

Everyone should know who Mordechai Anielewicz was.
