The 15th of December

The very first start of SIMBANG GABI. It brings back memories of me and my siblings attending the early mass at the Church. We used to wake up at dawn as early as 3 am just to make sure when we arrived at the church at 4am then we have seats to sit on for an hour long mass instead of standing just like hundreds of churchgoers standing and feeling sleepy. It also the time when there are stalls outside the church , vendors elling delicacies such as puto bumbong, palitao, suman or rice cake, bibingka, hot sopas, and lugaw. Yummy food.

15 = AE     Arts and Entertainment. So many movies that we watched, suspense, dramatic and tearjerker. One movie that brought tears to my eyes? The Schindler's List. The movie produced by Steven Spielberg, the creator of E.T. the movie about an alien adopted by a young boy named Elliot.

My blogpost story is not about E.T. it's about that of Schindler's List where Jewish people were persecuted "allegedly by the German Nazis only to be released when paid by a certain Nazi patronizer named Oskar Schindler. According to the story, millions of Jews were annihilated by Hitler in the Nazi camp. Old women, people with mental health problem were killed, every day the Nazis killed and cremated so many Jews. In the movie there were at least 10,000 dead bodies exhumed and then burned afterwards. Look at those hands? They don't even wear gloves. Is that what happened in real life? Their hands are all over those dead decaying bodies and they were carrying them one by one and God knows what happened to those people who touched the dead bodies. Then inside the concentration camp where men and women were maltreated like animals. One time hundred thousands of Jews were inside the train run by dirty coal, they were sprayed with water from a hose, it's very demeaning, that scene is really horribly wrong and disgusting. then the inspection of men and women without clothes passing through a Nazi desk clerk.  Old immigration procedure? As soon as they have their clothes back then they noticed that all the children were taken by 6x6 truck  to another place and all the men and women panic that some of them were shot dead. There were children who were able to escape and hid under the loo. Would you believe that those young kids will jump through the filthy toilet filled with poo? Yuck! That's really, really disgusting! What could be the true story of the holocaust? In the movie, the Jews were from Poland. The narrator and historian, producer and many of the actors and actresses are Jews. It is a movie based on the Jewish people's account. It happened in 1939 when the Nazis hate the Jewish people and they are sort of racist.

Poland is right there beside Germany on the map. Germany is landlocked with different countries such as: France, Italy, Austria, Czech Republic, Poland, Romania and Serbia are just close by and they all can be reached by train ride. You can ride a bus or any kind of vehicle and you can reach those destinations within hours. Germans became the "legal guardian" to massive migration and tough iron fist is needed not to let those illegal immigrants get to the upper chamber. Hmm, more like a CHESS.

Secret? I hope you watch the opening ceremony of the 2012 Summer Olympic games in London. The ceremony had open the secrets to everyone.



Watch THE BIRDS of Tippi Hedren , a suspense movie directed by Alfred Hitchcock and you'll find out that there is so much depth in that old movie where migration of birds are haywire. Its more like they were scared like crazy from their nest and they have to get out from where they are and every open space they have to get in and out. maybe even from the tunnels. Or simply there's no fish or no food for the birds that they keep attacking the people in the island.



What happened in 1939? My grandmother was born in 1912 at the time when Army General Hospital was built in Fort Bonifacio, Rizal replaced named as Fort Bonifacio, Makati (now known as Fort Bonifacio Global City). It was actually known as Fort William Mckinley Camp and Headquarters of the Philippine Army. In Year 1939 she was age 27. Her memory of war is during the Japanese occupation in the island where she lived. It was a very long story and I have to relate that story of her in another medium.  It was also the year when the Roosevelt had  royal visitors in the White House and "hotdog" was introduced as feast for the royal family. The Royal family was a frequent visitor at the White House during the time of Great Depression. It was the time when food is scarce and epidemic was clearly evident. A time when Hitler ordered to kill all the invalid, disabled or people with disability and let the stronger human race live instead. Shocking!? More like SURVIVOR? Who knows it's probably a GAME with prizes. In another part of the world, their characterization of Hitler is a young man, short, Asian looking guy with funny moustache, rude and with funny wicked accent. Charlie Chaplin copied the Hai Hitler, made fun of the wicked one and brought laughter to everyone. It's their hand salute. How to salute when you worked for the army? Even Stewie of Family Guy once imitated the dubious hellish evil Hitler.

Who is Hitler? Adolf Hitler according to History is not really German. He was an Austrian Christian. He was a CHRISTIAN devotee meaning He believed in God. He is religious! So why he ordered the massacre of Jews? Weird right? Then there was another movie LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL. In that movie an Italian had an account of what truly happened during the Nazi era. You probably watched it too. The horrifying ordeal of war. In this story or movie the account of war is mild. It's more like a test. The Italians followed the "waiter" to the concentration camp and worked night and day carrying big slabs of rock, maybe coal. They probably in a quarry or something. Some movies are mindboggling they want you to think and conclude of this big great charade.

AE is Albert Einstein and the known Physicist finally made it to the 21st Century. How atoms conquered almost everyone.

There are many versions and more versions of the Holocaust which one will you believe? It's up to you to believe.
