A powerful and emotional rally took place in Berlin this week as hundreds of Holocaust survivors and their descendants marched through the Brandenburg Gate, lighting candles in memory of the six million Jews murdered during the Holocaust. The event ended with a concert under the banner of: “Israel, you are not alone.”
The gathering featured prayer, speeches, and live performances—including traditional Israeli dance—by descendants of Nazis who publicly denounced their ancestors’ crimes and voiced their support for the Jewish people and the State of Israel. Their participation was both symbolic and striking, highlighting the possibility of generational reckoning and solidarity.
The concert quickly went viral on social media, drawing a wide range of responses—some deeply moved, others skeptical. Ilana Israelov asked:
“Descendants of those who murdered our 6 million brothers and sisters, grandfathers and grandmothers? I don’t understand why give them a stage.” Elad Daniel responded warmly:
“They’re so sweet and talented.” Sushie S remained unconvinced:
“They will never be able to apologize! No behavior from them will help.”
Al Rosenberg offered a more generous view: “Kudos to them for standing on the right side of history!
They are ashamed of the horrific acts their great-grandfathers did and choose to stand with Israel—and in many cases stand against their families. Worthy of appreciation.”
Ofer Koren posed a reflective question:
“If it’s possible to get to this with the descendants of Nazis, why not with the descendants of Palestinians?”
As tensions around Israel continue to escalate globally, this rally served as a poignant reminder of historical responsibility, moral courage, and the enduring hope for unity in the face of darkness.

Enough with hating descendants of Nazis just because of who their parents or grandparents were. Did they choose to be born into such a family? Have they shown an interest in following in their forbears' footsteps? No and no. If anything, their forbears are a source of shame and the fact that they want to apologize for crimes that they did not commit shows a moral greatness.
Perhaps,or could be all through these PC performances perhaps, they're lying low
