My father knew German well and knew Germany. He took interest in everything happening in this country before and after Hitler came to power [12]. My father, who had lived among Germans for a long time, could not believe that German people were capable of doing the things happening during the Hitler rule. They also discussed the situation of Jews in Subcarpathia. Jews have always had a hard life.
My father believed that for Jews assimilation was an escape from anti-Semitism and persecution. He said it was not mandatory to marry a Jew, that there were decent people of other nationalities and the children in such marriages, grandchildren and the following generations would not bear this heavy burden of anti-Semitism.
