What is a “Holocaust Refugee”?

Mark Levin was askign this last night....

I don’t think she is a “Holocost Survivor”, but one who got out of German BEFORE being sent to camp...

That is like saying you survived the 9/11 attack on the WTC and Pentagon because you once visited the World Trade Center and took a tour of the penagon years before the attack...

Really bad analogy.

The major effects of Nazism were already being felt in 1933. Any Jew who didn’t get out in the mid-1930’s either couldn’t financially or were kidding themselves about the threat.

So I’m a Korea veteran because I was there in 1978-79 and 1981-82? Because I’m not. My father was, along with World War II, but I was there to help enforce the cease fire. The war ended in 1953. If she left Vienna in 1939, I wouldn’t really say she’s a Holocaust survivor. Robert Clary (born Robert Max Widerman) who played French Air Forces Corporal LeBeau on Hogan’s Heroes, was sent to the Nazi concentration camp at Ottmuth. He was later sent to Buchenwald, where he was liberated on April 11, 1945. Twelve other members of his immediate family were sent to Auschwitz. Clary was the only survivor.
