Fake Holocaust Survivors: George Gelb

Continuing on with my series of articles on the stories of so-called ‘Holocaust Survivors’ we have the case of George Gelb that was cited by Staten Island Live.

To wit:

‘Yet behind the laughter and love, is a story of a 6-year-old boy from Budapest, Hungary, who survived the Holocaust by hiding in an attic with his mother and sister.

George still recalls one poignant moment when the Hungarians came into their apartment and yelled: "Jews come out!" All of the Jews had to come out of the building, raise their hands, and walk in the middle of the street.

His mother thought they were going to be killed, but instead the Hungarians just took all of their jewellery and they left.

After that, George and his family went into hiding. And while George was just a little boy at the time, certain experiences remain vivid in his mind.’ (1)

Now the amusing thing about Gelb’s strange story is that the worst thing that ever happened to him and his mother was being told by Hungarian soldiers to come out of their house and give them their jewellery.

Well that tells us two things:

1) Hungarian jews had a lot of valuable jewelry.

2) Nothing happened to Gelb that was worse than having his mother’s valuable jewelry taken.

Tells you everything you need to know: doesn’t it?
