Rabbi Shmuley Boteach reflects on the recent tragedy in Sydney and connects it to the long history of antisemitism, focusing on the financial expropriation of Jews during the Holocaust. He details how banks, particularly in Germany and Switzerland, played a central role in stripping Jews of their assets before and during the genocide, enabling their destruction. Swiss banks like UBS, he argues, systematically withheld billions in Jewish assets after the war, stonewalling survivors and heirs for decades until forced by public pressure and legal action to settle claims. Boteach contends that while settlements were eventually paid, the underlying institutional attitudes and cultural biases against Jews persisted, and true accountability remains elusive. He calls for continued vigilance and moral responsibility from financial institutions that once profited from the suffering of Jews, warning that the lessons of history must not be forgotten or repeated.
