REPARATIONS: FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION? At Contentions, Gabriel Schoenfeld writes about the story of a group of children of Holocaust survivors who are suing Germany to pay for their therapy sessions. Schoenfeld writes:
The suit calls for the German government to pay for biweekly therapy sessions for 15,000 to 20,000 people at a cost of $10 million over three years. Gideon Fisher, the attorney who filed the action in a Tel Aviv court, says this is “the very first time that the German government will be asked to take responsibility and to care for those of the second generation in Israel and indeed, worldwide.”
Time to draw the line.
