The war isn't even over, and already there's dissension and Jews are regarded as lesser beings.
Oh, it's sad, very sad that the old adage has been confirmed for the umpteenth time:
What one Christian does is his own responsibility, what one Jew does reflects on all Jews.”
To be honest, I can't understand how the Dutch, a nation of good, honest, upright people, can sit in judgment on us the way they do.
On us—the most oppressed, unfortunate and pitiable people in all the world.
I have only one hope: that this anti-Semitism is just a passing thing, that the Dutch will show their true colors,
that they'll never waver from what they know in their hearts to be just, for this is unjust!
And if they ever carry out this terrible threat, the meager handful of Jews still left in Holland will have to go.
We too will have to shoulder our bundles and move on, away from this beautiful country,
which once so kindly took us in and now turns its back on us. I love Holland.
Once I hoped it would become a fatherland to me, since I had lost my own. And I hope so still! Yours, Anne M. Frank
