As Jeanette Friedman, Editor of Together,The Voice of American Jewish Holocaust Survivors and Their Descendants, rightly points out the children of Holocaust Survivors are some of the most realistic, sanest group around. In her words: "we don't have our parents' nightmares. We have nightmares about people like Islamist extremists with bombs, a scenario not impossible given the state of realpolitik in this world. We do carry anger, an anger that fuels our passion for justice and tikkun olam [healing the world]." See for the important work of American Gathering of Jewish Holocaust Survivors.
