By all accounts, Rabbi Dr. Leo Baeck must have had a very comfortable existence under the National Socialist Government in Germany. Born in 1873 in Posen, he became a Rabbi in 1897 in Oppeln/Silesia. Interestingly, he was a Rabbi in Berlin from 1912 until 1943, when he himself was interned at the Theresienstadt camp, a camp where most of the prominent Jews and resistance activists were housed. After the war Leo Baeck immigrated to England.

But as we all know, Theresienstadt is a high point for the holohuggers, in that it was completely destroyed and every Jew in it was gassed.

There is an entirely different story that Theresienstadt was liquidatd and all the people sent to Auschwitz to be exterminated. However, in April 1945 the Red Cross says that it took over Theresienstadt.
