I'm curious as to what became of the suit filed a couple years ago by the US-based Hungarian Holocau$t ' survivors ' -many of whom today reside in Palm Beach, Beverly Hills and Manhattan-demanding multi-billion $$$ compensation from the Federal Goverment for its failure to ' bomb the rail lines leading to Auschwitz ' in spring of 1945 which resulted in the tragic deaths of 450 thousand Hungarian Jews.
The link below is for an article that covers somewhat similiar theme.

From that link:
"The American government, meanwhile, should accord all American Holocaust survivors the status of veterans of the American armed services, and free access to Veterans Administration hospitals and facilities."
Ignoring that many of these so-called holocaust survivors have never been NAZI custody, why is the American government under any special obligation to holocaust survivors well over and above native born Americans? The Jew who wrote that provides the only argument that Germans get socialized medicine.
Also, how long ago was the alleged holocaust? WWII ended, what, 58 years ago? That's 58 years to work and save for retirement. Using WWII to justify free medical care now is almost as perverted as insisting that Jews should get free medical care for eternal generations because some died in some ancient war. If there are any poor retired Jews in America, WWII has nothing to do with it.

ââ¬ÅTo be sure, not all survivors need assistance. Some are wealthy. Many more have full health insurance, or live in countries that, unlike the United States, provide universal healthcare to all their citizens. That, however, is of no comfort whatsoever to less fortunate survivors unable to cope with serious or terminal illnesses, many of which are the direct result of their suffering during the Holocaust.ââ¬Â
Who are these people? Terminally ill for at least 58 years! And the rest of the world should pick up the bill to pay for their rent and dentures, too.

Don't forget the Manischevitz and Streit's items at the supermarket.
