Passover in Yemen
Though nearly 5S.OOS YemenheJews were flown into Israel on "Operation Magic Carpet" in 1*4*-5#,
this Jewish family in Yemen celebrates Passover according to centuries-old tradition.

resistance existed yet. Early in
1942, conferences took place
among the resisting groups -the
PPR (Polish Workers —
communist—Party), Right and
Left Labor Zionist, Hashomer
Hatzair and Hehalutz (the Bund
refused to join)—under the
stimulus of Joseph Levartovski
and Andzhei Schmidt (Pinye
Kartin) of the PPR.
Levartovski advanced the basis
for battle unity: “We are all
brothers and children of one
family." Schmidt, formerly an
officer in the Spanish Civil War,
was the military leader. In
February 1942. the Anti-Fascist
Bloc was formed; Schmidt,
betrayed to the Nazis in May. was
killed.
When the Nazis launched their
total extermination program in
Warsaw in July, 1942, the Anti-
Fascist Bloc broke down and the
groups formed their own separate
self-defense units. By October
1942, however, unity was again
achieved, this time including the
Bund. The staff of the new
Fighting Jewish Organization
contained representatives
of Hashomer Hatzair, PPR,
“Halutz,” Left Labor Zionists and
the Bund, with Mordecai
Anielevich as commander.

brief armed uprising Jan. 18-21,
1943, resisting the attempts of the
SS to round up Jews for
annihilation. Non-Jewish forces
outside the Ghetto helped to
gather arms, one by one._ The
London Police emigre government
refused to give any substantial aid
from its store of arms. The PPR
and some of its non-Jewish
members gave some arms.
By April 1943. there were about
70,000 left in the Ghetto. Zero
hour was April 19, day of the First
Seder of Passover. At 6 a.m.
German troops entered the Ghetto
in force. Fighting broke out. The
Germans retreated, beaten by the
first surprise attack. The Jews
fought with hand grenades, bottles
filled with gasoline (Molotov
cocktails) and carbines. But the
Germans returned with tanks,
artillery and planes.
By April 23, the Jewish fighters
had to abandon open warfare and
turn to partisan fighting. On May 9
the central command post was
attacked by the Nazis and most of
the leaders, including Anielevich,
were killed. The fighting went on.
On May 16 the Nazi commanding
General Jurgen Stroop reported to
his superiors that “the Jewish
section of Warsaw no longer
exists." But partisan skirmishes
continued until mid-July. Some
survivors continued to fight the
Nazis in the woods. The Uprising
was a heroic chapter in the history
of the Jews and an immortal page
in the history of World War 11.
“Never to forget; never to
forgive!"

Early in 1942 the crematoria in
Nazi death camps smoked
continuously with burning bodies.
Many groups in the Warsaw
Ghetto became convinced the time
was ripe for active resistance. But
first the Judenrat. Jewish
administrators for the Nazis, and
the notorious Jewish police had to
be discredited and “The 13," a
gang of Jewish blackmailers and
informers, had to be destroyed.
