New World War II Jewish diary publishedMonday 23 November 2009 The diary of a Jewish woman, picked up by the Nazis in 1943 and deported to the Sobibor extermination camp in Poland, has been published for the first time. Klaartje de Zwarte-Walvisch, a seamstress, was 32 when she was arrested in Amsterdam. Her diary was found by researchers working on an Nos tv programme about World War II last year. She began writing down her experiences on the day she and her husband were picked up. Her brother in law took the papers when De Zwarte-Walvisch was put on board the train to Sobibor in early July. She died soon afterwards in the gas chambers. 'I really hope that all I have written down will one day reach the outside world,' she wrote in the diary. The Volkskrant says the diary is important because of the 'detailed and raw' descriptions of life in the Vught and Westerbork concentration camp in the Netherlands. The book has been published by Balans publishers under the name Alles ging aan flarden (everything in tatters). © DutchNews.nl
dont you mean Nazi camps in occupied Ntherlands, please dont make this mistake as thats why many ppl believe that the other camps in Poland for example were Polish thus asserting blame on the Poles where as it was the Nazis this carried out this evil By adhd | November 23, 2009 4:10 PM well..let all those horrific events against jewish people, to be remembered from the right wing israeli goverment (in the palestinian issue) and all goverments of the world so problems are solved in peace and not with war.

By sandra | November 24, 2009 9:56 AM To Sandra: If someone goes through proper channels and legally attains citizenship then there is no cause for alarm. It is those who break the laws and do not wish to integrate into Dutch society that are to blame for their own plight. Let us flip the coin, if a Dutch national was living in Saudi Arabia and broke their laws they would have their head cut off or hung. It is when people do NOT wish to live in unity with the society as a whole that cause the hate and discontent. By Paul Martin | November 24, 2009 12:05 PM Dear Paul Martin, lets not be a hypocrite about integration here. The Dutch who have been living in the United states for four hundred years or less have yet to integrate and act like Americans rather then hang on to their own culture, traditions and not mix with other Americans. I have relatives in the USA that have lived there for over forty years and they refuse to integrate, they live in an all dutch community and don´t like outsiders in their all Dutch community. I think USA should force the Dutch and the already established dutch that have lived in USA for years and years to do inburgering in America or force them to pay high fines or deport them if they fail to integrate just like they do here in the Netherlands making people feel insecure with constant new laws. By sandra | November 24, 2009 3:01 PM To Paul Martin: Legal migrants and even 3rd generation Dutch nationals are called allochtonen, doesn't that sound like being called "Jew" in Nazi Germany? This is nothing to do with legality, just plain racism. By AC | November 24, 2009 3:33 PM

The Netherlands hasn´t changed a bit, instead of the jews it is immigrants and Muslims they discriminate against and design laws aimed at only these groups to make life more and more miserable for them until when? New concentration camps for this selected group of people? The Big EU anti non EU immigrants resembles what Hitler wanted before world war 2 broke out. If there is a world war 3, there will be no more Europe because hate always loses in the end. Better wake up and smell the roses before you destroy yourselves in another world war Europe!
