The
world hasn't just become wicked...it' s always been wicked.
The prize doesn't always go to the most deserving.
There recently was a death of a 98 year-old lady named
Irena.
During WWII, Irena, got permission to work in the Warsaw
ghetto,
as a Plumbing/Sewer specialist. She had an 'ulterior
motive'.
She
KNEW what the Nazi's plans were for the Jews (being
German).
Irena smuggled infants out in the bottom of the tool box she
carried
and
she carried in the back of her truck a burlap sack, (for
larger kids)
She also had a dog in the back that she trained to bark when
the Nazi
soldiers let her in and out of the ghetto.
The soldiers of course wanted nothing to do with the dog and
the barking covered the kids/infants noises.
During her time of doing this, she managed to smuggle out
and save
2500 kids/infants. She was caught, and the Nazi's broke both
her legs,
arms and beat her severely.
Irena kept a record of the names of all the kids she
smuggled out
and
kept them in a glass jar, buried under a tree in her back
yard.
After the war, she tried to locate any parents that may have
survived
it and reunited the family. Most had been gassed.
Those kids she helped got placed into foster family homes or
adopted.
Last year Irena was up for the Nobel Peace Prize.
She
was not selected.
Al
Gore won --- for a slide show on Global Warming. |
