I heard a story that during WWII Jews were told to leave the country and they wouldn't be killed. Was that true?

It's actually the other way around. They were told they're being resettled and the destination was the gas chambers.

That was fully explained on my visit. They showed how they were told to hang up their clothes to take a shower after all those days on the train and it was the gas chamber. You can read as many books as you want or watch all the movies. Nothing compares to walking where they walked. You have to visit.

It depends on who was bringing them. My wife's grandmother left Germany on the Kindertransport to England with her sister and they were the only ones from their family who survived. (we calculated that these 2 girls now have close to 1000 descendants)

A relatively exceptional case, most of the holocausts 6 million victims never had such an option.

It was ironic considering how you phrased your question.

I literally have it in my DNA. My grandfather lost his wife and all their 5 children there. So I literally carry it in my DNA because if not for Auschwitz he (likely) wouldn't have married my grandmother after the war.

There have been numerous threads in the political forum that have overlapped in the last few days. I thought it was mentioned there about how some Jews came to Palestine. I probably got it all wrong.

Correct. The way to know was by who was administering the transport. There were a few not administered by the Nazis which brought the people to safety. The ones administered by the Nazis were of course a ruse. How would that apply to UNRWA transporting "refugees"?

Again, even if it was correct, you're making a fundamental and monumental error in conflating a people being sought out and targeted for murder to people in a warzone.

I assume you are referring to Lithuania where Rabbis in the early war years advised people not to flee.

with all the resources that the IDF is using to expose shifa hospital, do we think that they might actually have no choice and attack that place?
