Notes from Limmud 2008: Kasztner: Saviour or Collaborator?

( Rezső Kasztner saved 1,670 Hungarian fellow-Jews from the Holocaust by bribing SS leaders, but was later accused of collaboration, and murdered by Jewish extremists in Israel. Ladislaus Löb, the presenter and author of 'Dealing with Satan', was rescued from Bergen-Belsen concentration camp by Kasztner. Michael Pinto-Duschinsky, co presenter and historian was ransomed by Kasztner at Budakalács, the embarkation point for Auschwitz. Together the presenters discuss some of the highly controversial issues that still surround Kasztner’s name. )
