According to the book some of the Jews he helped to save try to help him restart a business, of which all failed.
When the war ended, Schindler fled to Argentina with his wife and a handful of his workers and bought a farm. In 1958, he abandoned his land, his wife and his mistress to return to Germany. He spent the remaining years of his life dividing his time between Germany and Israel, where he was honored and taken care of by his “Schindlerjuden.”

He died in Hildesheim in 1974. And I think he was buried in Israel.

Re: Schindler....after...
He was declared a Righteous Gentile and is honored in Israel today, although I cannot see why given his shady and opportunistic past. I haven't read the novel by Thomas Keneally.ziggy wiseman wrote:What happened to Oscar Schindler after the war?Was he arrested...?
I guess he saved some Jews and lost his fortune in the process, and in addition, like all good Germans in the Third Reich, he produced shoddy porcelain mess items for the soldiers and defective ammunition for the war-effort. In the Spielberg movie he wished that he had sold his golden party badge and thereby used to money to save one or two more Jews. Schindler's Jews really do go to Auschwitz-Birkenau to have a shower instead of being gassed, where they would have marched right past Kremas II and III on their way to the Sauna.

They also had real shower rooms at Auschwitz-Birkenau, for the inmates who had the dubious fortune of being taken into the camp instead of being killed right away.Schindler's Jews really do go to Auschwitz-Birkenau to have a shower instead of being gassed, where they would have marched right past Kremas II and III on their way to the Sauna.
Source of quote:One of the more incriminating documents to surface was an inventory of equipment installed in Corpse Cellar I of Crematorium III which listed “14 showers” and one “gas tight door” [gasdichte Tür]. Why would 14 showers be placed in a morgue which had a gas tight door? Recall from Chapter 5 that there was much eyewitness testimony about using phony showers to deceive victims who were about to be gassed.
Faurisson argued that early crematoriums had a room to wash corpses. However, he ignored the fact that Pressac had examined inventory drawings of Corpse Cellar I of Crematorium III which showed that none of its three water taps were connected to the “showers”, meaning that these “showers” were fake. Moreover, it is known from the completion document for Crematorium II – which was the twin of Crematorium III – that there were three washrooms on the ground floor, not the basement. Faurisson simply could not explain why a morgue would have showers and a “gas tight door”.
Pressac also examined the buildings in the camp which had legitimate showers. Based on the space allotted to showers in these buildings, the 2264 square feet of Corpse Cellar I should have had 115 showerheads, not 14. Pressac also examined the ruins of Corpse Cellar I of Crematorium II and found that seven wooden bases to which similar phony showerheads had been installed were still visible.

IT JUST DOESN'T WASH...
They did? They had real shower rooms? Really?medorjurgen wrote:They also had real shower rooms at Auschwitz-Birkenau...Schindler's Jews really do go to Auschwitz-Birkenau to have a shower instead of being gassed, where they would have marched right past Kremas II and III on their way to the Sauna.
With all those fake showerheads and bombproofed basements and fake Human
Soap...
Real showers! Can you prove that?

And what about the ART? See...

YAWN...
Unlike some people, I don't have all day (most of the time) to post while I'm at work. And sometimes between fares I even get shoe polish on the keyboard.

Neither have I. I’m just one of those fellows who, unlike former US president Reagan, can walk and chew gum at the same time.Unlike some people, I don't have all day (most of the time) to post while I'm at work.

The first one, btw, showed placards of all the schoolkids who have visited the Auschwitz NEXUS. It's a form of Groupthink, nothing more. I suppose the second one shows gaschambers soaring heavenward, and made of glass to show radiance instead of generating claustrophobia.

Poor Smith, he’s trying to insult me.Hard to believe, but I'll allow that some people put less thought into their work.
Except for color and context, the animals are actually more reminiscent of the flock of True Believers that Reverend Smith appeals to.And no less Holocaustian.
Mystification is nonsense, in my opinion. But even more so is making a big bloody fuss out of it.The first one, btw, showed placards of all the schoolkids who have visited the Auschwitz NEXUS.

If the Reverend had ever been to a museum of modern art, he would know that the exhibit he is so indignant about actually ranks low on the scale of artistic lunacy. Could it be that the desecration of his holy symbol has disproportionately enhanced the Reverend's aesthetic sensibility?And here's yet-more Holo-ART...

HOLO-ART
Not really, but you know that I don't have an attorney's appreciation for cut-and-paste.Roberto wrote:Poor Smith, he’s trying to insult me.

Nice try, but no discussion on Groupthink would be complete without an illustration of skittish sheep, black sheep at that, and, oh, I wouldn't read too much more into it than that, ha ha.++And no less Holocaustian.++
<<Except for color and context, the animals are actually more reminiscent of the flock of True Believers that Reverend Smith appeals to.>>

I'm just making a point. It is classic Groupthink. The gaschamber symbolism is especially curious.++The first one, btw, showed placards of all the schoolkids who have visited the Auschwitz NEXUS.

Not quite. I'm willing to give Modern Art a chance. But I find the Holo-ART genre very curious. Don't become focused on any one exhibit.++And here's yet-more Holo-ART...

Simultaneous walking and gum-chewing
Yes. The deprecatory comment about Ford was made by President Johnson."Neither have I. I’m just one of those fellows who, unlike former US president Reagan, can walk and chew gum at the same time. "
Was the one who couldn't walk and chew named Gerald Ford perhaps?
And what was quoted is the censored version. What Johnson actually said was that Ford could not FART and chew gum at the same time.
I am sure that Medorjurgen, like me and the the contributors to this forum, does not suffer from that disability.
