Embers from the Holocaust

DRESDEN, Germany -- I stood for the first time before the charred
ruins of the Frauenkirche, the magnificent Church of Our Lady that was
pounded to rubble in the Allied firebombing here in 1945, and I was
glad. For a few seconds -- I cannot deny it -- it gave me satisfaction
to view the bleak and jagged remains of Dresden's once-mighty Baroque
masterpiece. The shattered Frauenkirche is a desolating sight and the
appalling raid that caused it arguably served no military purpose. But
in my mind's eye, I saw the flames and smashed glass of Kristallnacht,
the 1938 pogrom that served as the curtain-raiser for the Holocaust,
and I thought: This is what you get for burning synagogues.
I had come to Dresden as part of a two-week stay in Germany that also
included visits to Bonn, Frankfurt, Berlin, and Potsdam. I was one of
a group of 18 North Americans who had been invited by the University
of Bonn and the German Academic Exchange Service to experience what
the university's rector called "a brief but intense encounter with
Germany."
For me, any encounter with Germany would be intense: I am the son of a
Holocaust survivor. In the spring of 1944, my father's parents, his
brothers, and two of his sisters were fed to the ovens at Auschwitz.
When Germany surrendered in May 1945, my father himself was nearly a
corpse, starved and disease-ridden. Had the war lasted even a few days
longer, he would have died. The Final Solution just missed him -- and
therefore me.
I cannot remember a time when I was not aware of the Holocaust. As a
small boy, no more than 6 or 7 years old, I would write "Hitler" on
the bottom of my shoe -- so I could wipe out his name as I walked.
Germany I always thought of as a land poisonous to Jews; for a long
time I insisted I would never step foot there.
At some point I abandoned that taboo, and when I was invited to take
this trip, no one had to twist my arm. Still, there were qualms. I
joked grimly that the only German I knew was "Guten Morgen" and "Sieg
Heil." I made a point of packing Daniel Goldhagen's scorching new
history of the Holocaust, Hitler's Willing Executioners -- as a
prophylactic, I suppose, against liking Germans too much.

firebombing of Dresden in 1945
Not that I expected Germany 1996 to resemble Germany 1936. Not that I
wasn't aware of Germany's contrite and conscientious effort,
especially in recent decades, to come to grips with its Nazi crimes. I
knew perfectly well that the vast majority of Germans today are
committed democrats, not crypto-fascists. But I also knew that the
ghosts and echoes of my family's past would be with me. I set off to
"encounter" Germany with goodwill and an open mind. Yet what kind of
goodwill could I feel toward the nation that murdered my father's
family?
These contradictory impulses tugged at me throughout my fortnight in
Germany.
I would find myself searching for evidence of antisemitism -- but
alert for evidence that antisemites aren't tolerated. Jewish sites in
Germany, I quickly noticed, are guarded round-the-clock by the police.
To attend Sabbath services at the synagogue on Berlin's
Joachimstalerstrasse, I had to get past an armed guard and a metal
detector. Is it good news that Jews in Germany today are well-
protected when they worship? Or is it bad news that Jews in Germany --
even today -- require protection when they worship?
It reassured me when politicians and academics explained that certain
German policies -- generous treatment of refugees, for instance, or a
fervent commitment to European unity -- grow out of the nation's
horror over what it did in 1933-45. But even as I was reassured, I was
suspicious: Do they really mean it? Or are they saying it because they
have to?
My internal tension reflects the duality of the Second Generation --
the children of those who were the victims of the Holocaust. On the
one hand, it is our job to move on, to live for those who died, to
build a future for our families and our people. On the other hand, we
are charged to remember the past, to cry out against forgetting, to
warn that nothing can prevent the rise of a new Auschwitz except
undimmed rage and grief over what took place in the old one.
It was a dichotomy I wrestled with repeatedly.
At the Haus der Geschichte in Bonn, a new museum of modern German
history, the section on 1945 devotes considerably more attention to
the condition of Germany's bombed cities and the discomforts of food
rationing than to the liberation of the concentration camps and the
exposure of the Nazis' savagery. Why, I wondered indignantly, were the
curators trying to downplay Dachau and Buchenwald?
But at a panel session later with representatives of Germany's major
political parties, I was struck by the honesty and anguish with which
they confronted the legacy of the Third Reich.
"I don't feel patriotism when I see German soldiers," said Friedbert
Pfluger, a member of parliament from the conservative Christian
Democratic Union. "I don't feel pride from German warplanes in the
air, or German warships in the Aegean." Try to imagine a US senator
saying such a thing about America's armed forces.
Particularly impassioned was Wolf Poulet, the military-affairs
spokesman for the Free Democratic Party. When some of the visiting
North Americans suggested that German troops ought to play a greater
role in international peacekeeping, Poulet warned of the backlash it
would provoke. "Do you think the world wants to see German troops in
other countries?" he asked. "We always know that we are hated. Always.
Even after 50 years! And we know why. The world is alarmed when
Germans put on uniforms. We can't escape this."
President Reagan visits the German military cemetery at Bitburg, where
49 SS men are among the 2000 troops buried.
Fifty-five years ago, the Wehrmacht was conquering Europe and
exterminating innocents. Today German politicians recoil instinctively
from any form of martial self-assertion. And even I, a Jew whose
family was so scarred by German brutality, could be moved by their
sincerity and sorrow.
And yet . . .
At one point, to illustrate that distrust of Germany is never far
below the surface, Poulet brought up President Reagan's 1985 visit to
the military cemetery at Bitburg. Just look, he said, at the uproar
set off in America because the president was going to a cemetery where
"it happened that two SS were buried."
Something snapped in my skull. "Fifty-four!" I exploded, abrupt and
hot and angry, startling everyone in the room, myself included, with
my vehemence. "Not two! Fifty-four!" I knew he wasn't trying to deny
the SS contamination of that cemetery. But hearing a German minimize
anything about the Nazis -- even unintentionally -- prompted a
visceral reaction, and proved the point Poulet was making: that the
scars of the Hitler years are still painfully tender.
(As it happened, I was in error, too. The actual number of SS men
buried in Bitburg -- I looked it up afterward -- is 49.)
At times, the creepiest things -- creepy to me, anyway -- came out of
the mouths of people I met. Hansjurgen Rosenbauer, the polished and
influential director of East German Radio Brandenburg in Potsdam,
argued for generous government subsidies to a wide range of
industries, including his own. "After all," he said, "in many ways we
are still developing. You know, during the war, most of the Jews were
killed or they left. This was a terrible brain drain, and we are still
catching up from it." Aha. We perpetrated genocide, so now we need
government handouts. His brazenness repelled me.
In this Berlin villa in 1942, senior officials of the Third Reich met
to coordinate Hitler's "Final Solution" -- the destruction of European
Jewry.
And yet I also met Germans whose decency is manifest, and whose shame
and misery over the Holocaust -- though it began and ended before they
were born -- never leaves them. Annegret Ehmann has transformed the
House of the Wannsee Conference -- the Berlin villa where in 1942 the
Third Reich's senior bureaucrats met to coordinate the slaughter of
the Jews -- into a reference library on the Holocaust. She has made it
her life's work to explore how something as sinister as genocide could
have been planned and carried out so routinely. Tirelessly, she runs
seminars for German civil servants, sensitizing them to the moral
consequences of bureaucratic behavior -- and using the Wannsee
Conference as a case study.
Why, I asked. Why make this your career?
"I am a German," she answered after a pause. "I grew up in the 1960s.
We had many questions. Many questions." Another pause. She struggled
to explain herself. "I am a German. What else can I do?"
Whether Germans today, in their heart of hearts, are more like
Annegret Ehmann or more like the Nazis who convened at Wannsee, I
cannot say. Nor can I judge the permanence of Germany's transformation
from the Gestapo state of the 1940s to the democracy of today. But
this I can say, as the child of a Holocaust survivor seeing Germany
for the first time:
There is no forgiving and no forgetting. But neither is there blind
hatred.
The firebombed Frauenkirche lies in ruins in Dresden, and it was a
sight I was glad to see. Now the great church is being reconstructed;
it should be finished in 2006. That is a sight I will also be glad to
see. Who knows? Perhaps I shall travel to Germany to see it.
