Even dead you are with us, even dead you are a threat to them
On August 17, 1987, after decades of imprisonment, European peacemaker and martyr Rudolf Hess was assassinated. The Allies cynically called the murder a suicide. But Hess's murder did not kill his spirit or his memory.
Hess's burial site became a place of pilgrimage for Europeans, and therefore immediately began to irritate Jews and the authorities of the occupation regime.
In 2005, city officials banned memorial marches by, quote, "amending the law on freedom of assembly". Sounds pretty free, doesn't it?
However, even this did not destroy the memory of the martyr.
Then the church cancelled the lease agreement for the grave until October 2011. This was taken advantage of by the warriors with the graves, who, having waited until night so that no one would see them, demolished the grave, burned the remains and scattered the ashes over the sea.
We will not forget, we will not forgive!
