Solly
Ganor

A
reader from The Netherlands brought to our attention on
January 7, 2008, the fact that in the current
JewishGen
Holocaust Database of Dachau Concentration Camp
Records, one can find
these two (2) entries:
|
1674/Bg.
GENKIND, Chaim
26 Dec 1892
Kauen
Kauen
92 295
Sch. Lit. J.
18 Aug 1944 v. Stutt.
befr. i. Da.
|
and
|
1674/Bg.
GENKIND, Sally
18 May 1928
Kauen
Kauen
Kalvinstr. 13
92 298
Sch. Lit. J.
18 Aug 1944 v. Stutt.
befr. i. Da.
|
which clearly show the names of
both, Mr. Solly Ganor (born, according to Mr. Ganor, as
Zalke Genkind) and his late father Chaim.
NOTE 1: The name Sally
implanted into the above precious database can be
accounted in many ways.
One of them could be a combination of pronunciation and
typo errors as outlined below:
|
Zalke ==>
(diminutive) Zalky ==> Zally ==>Zolly
(pronunciation) ==> Solly ==>
Sallly
|
Another
way, quite strange and utterly ridiculous, was alluded by
Dr. Stephen Feinstein
that is posted, as amusement, at the bottom of the
page.
NOTE 2: All other
critical views of Mr. Ganor's Holocaust representations
expressed by him and noted in our two postings
(Posting No. 1
and Posting No. 2)
will, of course, remain in effect such as his purported
meeting with the Consul Sugihara, his purported Sugihara
visa, his purported Hanukkah
miracle of 1939, his
purported endorsement by Elie Wiesel of his book, his
purported Holocaust diary smuggled from Dachau, his
purported association with the Directorate of
Yad Vashem, etc.

God,
help us finding the meaning of Dr. Feinstein's
email.

A Strange Reaction
from Dr. Stephen Feinstein, Director
Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies, University of
Minnesota, MN, USA
We are aware, as Dr. Stephen
Feinstein is, that Sally is a common name for a woman. We
were not aware however that a person, in his/her normal
state of mind, could entertain the tought and the
"situation" that Solly Ganor, when was 16, could have
been confused with a "young woman"!!

|
Dr.
Feinstein
|
Dr. Feinstein nevertheless
apparently faulted us in failing to consider that
"situation" as, to our bewilderment, we got this
one-liner, January 7, 2008, email
from him, titled "Re: Correction posted on Solly Ganor,"
that is posted in full below:
|
"So how is the
situation with young women?"
[sic!]
|
We have asked Dr.
Feinstein for a
clarification of his ridiculous one-liner
email,
but we got none. We were curious of knowing, in regard to
the subject at hand, of what "situation" and what "young
women" was he referring to... One cannot help, but be
sorry for Dr. Feinstein's current state of
mind.
May God have mercy on that
academic center under the management of Dr. Feinstein.
Good grief!

Assist Service Team
(FAST)
On
March 4, 2008, Dr. Stephen Feinstein,
65, died unexpectedly of
a brain aortic aneurysm (that resulted
in a heart attack) while speaking
at The Sabes Foundation Minneapolis
Jewish Film Festival.
May he rest in peace.
