I am of the opinion that whatever else the Germans are they are a very clever people.

In this context I am convinced that those chosen were not simply drafted into their roles at random but were profiled and ''recruited'' to fulfill the various functions necessary to carry out one of the biggest crimes against humanity in history were chosen for their existing psychopathic tendencies, weak mindedness and anti-Semitic views.

It is therefore reasonable to assume that each and everyone of those who made this nightmare possible were willing, if not enthusiastic participants in the slaughter of six million, that's 6,000,000, Jews, men, women, children and babies.

That's greater than the entire population of Ireland.

To forgive is to betray.

When I hear the word German or Germany, I think of Auschwitz, the gas chambers and the Jack Boot.

I feel that the national characteristic which spawned such inhuman butchers still exists in in the German psyche'.

I am playing the role of Thomas Blatt, Holocaust survivor. My first comment is that the perpetrators have no excuse for their role in the Holocaust. At any point, you could have walked away from your role. If you had any conscience, you would have risked the backlash from the government rather than kill all those people.
