Ο ενενήντα ενός χρονών Henk Zanoli στα εικοσιπέντε του χρόνια
έσωσε Εβραιόπουλο και τώρα τον τιμωρούν οι σιωνιστές δολοφονώντας....
έξι μέλη της οικογένειας του Παλαιστίνιου γαμπρού του στη Γάζα.
Ο Εβραίος πατέρας, υπάλληλος στο Εβραϊκό Συμβούλιο στο Άμστερνταμ, αναζητούσε καταφύγιο για την οικογένεια του, για τον δεκάχρονο γιο του Elchanan, που γεννήθηκε το 1932.
Όλες οι προσωρινές κρυψώνες που βρήκε δεν τον καθησύχασαν και αναζητούσε μια καλή κρυψώνα, απόλυτα εμπιστευτική και αυτή βρέθηκε στην οικογένεια Zanoli στο χωριό Eemnes, στην κεντρική επαρχία της Ουτρέχτης.
Η οικογένεια Zanolis είχε έξι ενήλικα παιδιά, κάποια από αυτά δεν είναι πλέον ζουν στο σπίτι.
- Ο πατέρας του Henk Zanoli, ήταν ανώτερος σύμβουλος στο δικαστικό σύστημα και ενεργό μέλος στην παράνομη αντίσταση στην Ολλανδία, ο οποίος είχε συλληφθεί και μεταφερθεί στο στρατόπεδο συγκέντρωσης Amersfoort στην Ολλανδία μερικούς μήνες πριν την άφιξη του Elchanan. Αρκετά παιδιά της οικογένειας ήταν μέλη της παράνομης αντίστασης.
- Η μητέρα Jans Zanoli γνώριζε πολύ καλά τον κίνδυνο που συνεπάγεται από την προσπάθεια να κρύψει η οικογένεια στο σπίτι της έναν Εβραίο κυνηγημένο από τους Ναζί, δεν πτοήθηκε και αισθάνθηκε την ηθική υποχρέωση να το πράξει και το έκανε. Έστειλε τον γιο της στο Άμστερνταμ για να φέρει το δεκάχρονο αγόρι και, τον έφερε με το τρένο στο Eemnes, γνωρίζοντας τους κινδύνους καθώς υπήρχαν πολλοί έλεγχοι και μπλόκα των Γερμανών κατακτητών κατά μήκος της διαδρομής.
Η οικογένεια Zanolis φρόντισε τον Elchanan, μέχρι την απελευθέρωση της πόλης τον Μάιο 1945. Ένας θείος ήρθε να τον πάρει μερικούς μήνες μετά την απελευθέρωση και τον έβαλε σε ένα εβραϊκό ορφανοτροφείο.
Από εκεί το 1951 μετανάστευσε στο σιωνιστικό κράτος και άλλαξε το όνομά του σε Hameiri. Μετά τον πόλεμο, Jans Zanoli έμαθε ότι ο σύζυγός της είχε μεταφερθεί στο Μαουτχάουζεν, όπου έχασε τη ζωή του τον Φεβρουάριο του 1945.
Στις 22 Ιουνίου, 2011, Yad Vashem απονέμει στην Jans Zanoli και στον γιο της Henk Zanoli το μετάλλιο "Δίκαιος μεταξύ των εθνών".....
Χθες όμως τους το γύρισε πίσω γιατί οι ήρωες τις πράξεις τους δεν αγοράζονται με μετάλλια και χρήματα αλλά με πράξεις που σέβονται την ανθρώπινη ζωή. Ο Ολλανδός ήρωας είδε το μέγεθος των εγκλημάτων που διέπραξαν οι σιωνιστές που λίγα χρόνια μετά την απονομή του μεταλλίου σε δυο πολέμους το 2012 και 2014 διέπραξαν φρικτά εγκλήματα στη Γάζα.
Η συνείδηση του δεν άντεξε και έπραξε αυτό που μέσα του η ψυχή του και η λογική του και οι αξίες που τον μεγάλωσαν είπαν να κάνει και το έκανε....
Dutchman who saved Jew returns medal to protest Gaza deaths
August 15, 2014 6:22am
THE HAGUE, Netherlands (JTA) — A Dutch man who risked his life to save a Jew during the Holocaust gave back a medal he received for his actions in order to protest Israel’s actions in Gaza.
Henk Zanoli, 91, returned his medal to the Israeli embassy in The Hague after a member of his family died in an Israeli strike in Gaza, the Haaretz daily reported Friday.
Zanoli and his mother were recognized by the State of Israel and its Holocaust commemoration authority, Yad Vashem, in 2011 for hiding a Jewish child in their home from 1943 to 1945.
A great-niece of Zanoli is a Dutch diplomat whose husband was born in the al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza. Last month an Israeli bomb killed several members of his family, Haaretz reported.
“It is particularly shocking and tragic that today, four generations on, our family is faced with the murder of our kin in Gaza. Murder carried out by the State of Israel,” Zanoli wrote in a letter to the embassy explaining his decision to return the medal. “For me to hold on to the honour granted by the State of Israel, under these circumstances, will be both an insult to the memory of my courageous mother who risked her life,” and to relatives in mourning in Gaza, he added.

Rescue Story
Zanoli-Smit, Johanna Jacoba
Zanoli, Henk
The orthodox Pinto family lived in Amsterdam, where father Pinto worked for the Jewish Council, which exempted him initially from deportation. In the spring of 1943, however, when some of those in the same situation were arrested and deported after all, he started to look for hiding places for his family. For his son Elchanan, born in 1932, a number of temporary places did not work out, until a place was found with the Zanoli family in the village of Eemnes, in the central province of Utrecht. The Zanolis had six grown children, some of them no longer living at home. Henk Zanoli, the father, was a senior advisor in the judicial system and active in the underground, had been arrested and taken to the Amersfoort political concentration camp in the Netherlands some months before the arrival of Elchanan. Also a number of the children were active in underground activities. Mother Jans Zanoli knew very well the risks involved by then in hiding a Jewish youngster in her home, but felt the moral obligation to do so. Son Henk, around 25 and living at home, traveled to Amsterdam to pick up the boy and took him back by train to Eemnes, a hazardous ride as there were many checks and guards along the route. The Zanolis took care of Elchanan, by then 11 years old, from the end of 1943 until the liberation of the city in May 1945. Elchanan found a warm and loving home with them.
It turned out that Elchanan’s parents and siblings had all perished in the camps. An uncle came to pick him up some months after the liberation and put him in a Jewish orphanage. From there he immigrated to Israel with a group of youngsters in 1951 and changed his name to Hameiri.
After the war, Jans Zanoli learned that her husband Henk Sr. had been transferred to Mauthausen, where he perished in February 1945.
