Seit mehreren Jahren lädt die Stadt Dresden former Jewish residents who fled during the Nazi era or were deported and who survived the Holocaust to take a several-day visit to Dresden. There is thus a "sign of reconciliation " are set to visit with former victims of persecution, probably in terms of image building, the possibility given their old "home".
Since interest a few old Jews in Dresden anyone, is the newspaper article about it is usually rather short and appears on the back pages of the local part. Can you call someone, however
as clueless and stupid or even suspected to deny the Holocaust, who formulates a report on the visit of former Dresdner Jewish women such as the following?
A small controversy ...

If she had, according to which, given the deportations to the extermination camp the previous persecution and humiliation, it is hardly the picture of what you want out of pretty little Dresden from his guests. Perhaps Fri Orosz also had the yellow star on his clothes irritated, but would possibly also have been interpreted as a sign for the enrichment of the "cosmopolitan Dresden.

"Helma Orosz taking a tour group from the past
The Mayor welcomed yesterday Jewish visitors who were, after many years for the first time in Dresden.
would like to Helma Orosz presented to the guests their chain of office, but wait to be the Mayor yet. If you put off until the next Visit. "But it is certain," she says. For most participants in the twelve-member group is the first trip to Dresden, since they have left Germany during the Second World War. All are Jewish faith, all have their family roots in the city.
Today, their addresses scattered throughout the world: in South America, Sweden, Israel, or Bavaria. In 1994, at City Hall the first reception of Jewish exiles, now it has become tradition. Even if the groups get smaller each year - and the older generation of the witnesses.
On Sunday, the delegation has arrived, fed by the Mayor and for the next day, agreed with her again, this time in the official framework. It is an emotional meeting. Brings back memories, for schools and roads that no longer exist today. The square around the synagogue was in his mind, Wolfgang Apt, who lives in Bolivia. Nothing else. Dresden had set up over the years, a different face. "A beautiful, assure the visitors. By Thursday they want to stay, stroll through the city and attending a concert at the Semper Opera. Some have made the option of including their own traces of the past. (Doh) "
But that's all history, just like these people who arrive so ever way from the past to visit Dresden.
addition could Fri Orosz your chain of office * unfortunately not demonstrate what is obviously an absolutely key point that "the next time you visit " intended to be remedied. But only if those who were deported at that time, including the National Socialist predecessor, the Fr Orosz, and his chain of dogs from the city were living then, as the " witnesses are always older ", the article completely omits what testify to this because. Sorry, of course, they then have the city " leave" in order to " South America, Sweden, Israel or Bavaria " to go there and probably leave to make. However, these seem
subtleties of the German chatter about the "past " neither the Saxon newspaper, nor the " Amtsverweserin " important to demonstrate a few Jews escaped political capabilities in terms of history.
If the " each year smaller groups " has come to the "visitor from the past" not eventually Fri Orosz also determines their chain of office at last found.
* There is still a lawsuit against their choice is to negotiate, it is not Mayor and must, therefore, the "chain of office" not wear and is referred to as "Amtsverweserin.
