Jewish Claims Conference Intentionally Defrauded Holocaust Survivors

The Holocaust® racket was not about megabucks; it was a multigigabuck fraud. Survivors come down the line even if they happen to have been Concentration Camps.

Jewish Claims Conference Intentionally Defrauded Holocaust Survivors [ 3 October 2008 ]
QUOTE
Paying and appealing At the beginning of June, Tel Aviv District Court ruled against the Claims Conference in a class-action suit filed by 1,914 residents of the former Soviet Union, who immigrated to Israel in the 1980s and 1990s. Upon their arrival in Israel, they asked the conference for the one-time payment that Germany agreed to make in 1980 to residents of the Communist Bloc that immigrated to the West (the Hardship Fund). Their requests were turned down, and Judge Oded Mudrik found that the Claims Conference was to blame for misleading the survivors, and for negligence that prevented the applicants' receipt of the grant. Judge Mudrik ordered the Claims Conference to pay 1,400 of the applicants (those whose claims were not yet subject to the statute of limitations) compensation in the amount of the one-time payment (5,000 deutschemarks).

"The judgment contains a sentence that I am unwilling to live with," Merhav said this week, explaining the conference's decision to appeal. "It says, 'The Claims Conference intentionally defrauded Holocaust survivors.' It's possible that some schmuck in some branch didn't explain things properly, so there was a hitch. But intentionally? As though this is the policy of the Claims Conference? I do not receive a salary and neither does the chairman of the Claims Conference, Julius Berman. Are we trying to cheat anyone?

"Naturally, we paid the claimants immediately, as the court ruled. We used money that had been earmarked for allocations. We have no other money. An unofficial decision was also taken by which, if we win the appeal, we will issue a recommendation not to demand the money back from the claimants."
  Then why appeal?

Merhav: "In principle, the Claims Conference cannot live with the assertions made in Mudrik's judgment. And in practical terms, for Germany to consider the possibility of paying the claimants, it insisted that we exhaust the legal proceedings."
