    Irena  Sendler

Died:  May 12,  2008 (aged 98)

Warsaw,  Poland



During  WWII, Irena, got permission to work in the  Warsaw ghetto, as a Plumbing/Sewer  specialist.
   She  had an ulterior motive.



Irena  smuggled Jewish infants out in the bottom of the  tool box she carried.
   She  also carried a burlap sack in the back of her  truck, for larger kids.



Irena  kept a dog in the back that she trained to bark  when the Nazi soldiers let her in and out of the  ghetto.
   The  soldiers, of course, wanted nothing to do with  the dog and the barking covered the kids/infants  noises.

During  her time of doing this, she managed to smuggle  out and save 2500  kids/infants.



Ultimately,  she was caught, however, and the Nazi's broke  both of her legs and arms and beat her  severely.



Irena  kept a record of the names of all the kids she  had smuggled out,
   In  a glass jar that she buried under a tree in her  back yard.
   After  the war, she tried to locate any parents that  may have survived and tried to reunite the  family.
   Most  had been gassed. Those kids she helped got  placed into foster family homes or  adopted.

In  2007 Irena was up for the Nobel Peace Prize. She  was not selected.
   Al  Gore won, for a slide show on Global Warming.



Later  another politician,
   Barack  Hussein Obama, won for his work as a community  organizer for ACORN.



In  MEMORIAM - 65 YEARS LATER



I'm  doing my small part by forwarding this  message.
   I  hope you'll consider doing the  same.



It  is now more than 65 years since the Second World  War in Europe ended.



This  e-mail is being sent as a memorial  chain,
   In  memory of the six million Jews, 20 million  Russians, 10 million Christians and 1,900  Catholic priests
   Who  were murdered, massacred, raped, burned, starved  and humiliated!



Now,  more than ever, with Iran , and others, claiming  the HOLOCAUST to be 'a myth', It's imperative to  make sure the world never  forgets,
   Because  there are others who would like to do it  again.



This  e-mail is intended to reach 40 million people  worldwide!



Join  us and be a link in the memorial chain and help  us distribute it around the  world.
   Please  send this e-mail to people you know and ask them  to continue the memorial chain.



Please  don't just delete it. It will only take you a  minute to pass this along.
