{SamsoNgroup} A True Story : Irena Sendler

Thanks to Devadas for the post.


And this is true! The prize doesn't always go to the most deserving; it goes to those who want to push the agenda.

In May 2008, a 98 year-old Polish lady named Irena Sendler died.


During WWII, she got permission to work in the Warsaw Ghetto, as a Plumbing/Sewer specialist but she had an ulterior motive.   She KNEW of the Nazi's plans for the Jews.  Irena smuggled infants out in the bottom of the tool box she carried and, in the back of her truck, she had a burlap sack for the larger children.   She had a dog in the back of the truck that she trained to bark when the Nazi soldiers let her in and out of the ghetto.  The soldiers wanted nothing to do with the dog and the barking covered the noise of the children.   She managed to smuggle out and save 2,500 children before she was caught; the Nazis broke both her legs and her arms and beat her severely.  

Irena kept a record of the names of all the children that she smuggled out which she kept in a glass jar buried under a tree in her back yard.   After the War, she tried to locate any parents that had survived and reunited the families.   Most, of course, had been gassed but she helped those children to be placed into foster family homes or adopted.  


In 2007, Irena was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize but was not selected.  Al Gore won - for a slide show on Global Warming!


 LET'S SEND THIS ONE AROUND THE WORLD - GOD BLESS HER and may she rest in Peace.
