Who Betrayed the Jews? is a groundbreaking study that examines the
various ways Jews were betrayed by their fellow countrymen during
the Holocaust. In many cases they regarded themselves as a person
of their nation first and a Jew second, so persecution came as a
terrible shock to them. Many had fought for their country in the
First World War, but this offered very little protection - not even
for those awarded Germany's Iron Cross. They were forced out of
their professions and universities. Their neighbours and school
friends betrayed them to the authorities. The authorities 'legally'
withdrew their rights and stripped them of their businesses under
Aryanization policies. Many who professed to be Christian were
affected by the Nazis' racial laws and found themselves and their
children categorised as 'halfbreeds'. Bodies such as the police and
railway companies co-operated with the Nazis in transporting Jews
to their deaths or to be subjected to unspeakable medical
experiments. The betrayal did not end in 1945 as there is evidence
of Holocaust survivors being attacked as and when they returned
home. Agnes Grunwald-Spier MBE reveals, among other accounts, the
story of the slave labourers who toiled for German firms and
international companies like Ford; the fate of Jewish Olympians who
were murdered; and the impact of Nazi policies on figures such as
Margaret Thatcher and Coco Chanel.
