Summary: The Shams of Great Britain
Comment: On the eve of the Holocaust, fearing that Europe was abouy to be engulfed in flames, thousands of Jews deposited their money in British banks. After the war, those who survivoed the death camps and the ghettoes were to learn that the faith they had put in British moral code was in vain. "You are enemy citizens, therefore your property has been confiscated and will be used to compensate British citizens for their damaged and losses", the survivors were told, to their utter dismay. Any and all attempts made to alter this policy and require Graet Britain to follow just and moral guidelines, have been futile.

That was the last and most cynical stage of the British anti-Jewish policy before World War II and afterwards. The Land of Israel, reguge of the Jewish people, had its gates locked in the face of Jewish refugees fleeing Nazi persecution and the survivors of jenocide. When the Holocaust was at its height, Great Britain leaned back with arms crossed, refused to bomb Auschwitz and refrained from granting refuge to even a few hundred Jewish children whose lived could have been saved.

Britain's role in the Holocaust victims' property affair, one of the most shameful to be revealed since the Swiss banks affair, was buried for decaded under piles of paperwork and documets. I had the privilege of uncovering the affair, and this revelation finally forced the British government to change - albeit partially and tentatively - policies it had clung for over 50 years. But this vindication is as yet incomplete and many heirs still seek justice. My book, therefore, documents the past and calls for change in the present.
