Jewish Partisans - Living and Surviving in the Partisans: Food

During World War II, 20,000-30,000 Jewish resistance fighters -- partisans - escaped ghettos and fought against the Germans and their collaborators. Getting food was a major obstacle, as local civilian populations were not always willing to associate themselves with the persecuted outlaws. In conjunction with the upcoming release of Defiance, a Paramount Vantage film directed by Ed Zwick and starring Daniel Craig and Liev Schreiber, which tells the story of the Bielski partisans, the Jewish Partisan Educational Foundation is broadcasting some films from our website to teach about this little known piece of history. Visit www.jewishpartisans.org for educational materials, 7 other films -- narrated by Larry King, Ed Asner, and Tovah Feldshuh -- detailed biographies of dozens of partisans, and more.

these comments are a travesty. I don't agree with israel's actions to condemn "Jews" in general and to slander these heroic resistance fighters is ignorant and wrong. If you want to complain about Israel's government, write a letter; don't blame these brave elderly people who deserve your respect.

most are not antisemitic, they are opposed to the brutal war going on in gaza.

completely different.

I'm puzzled...none of partizans talks about hunting...they were in woods for months and they steal instead of hunt?

[zobielamouche1]

the palestinian resistance against the occupation and ghettoization of their cities (which didn't last for 4 or 5 years but more than 40), against being considered and treated subhumans ("untermensche") by the occupiers, is something the zionists don't want to see and hear (and which they defame) while they heroize this resistance and suffering...

This tale is one of national PARTIZAN resistance to occupation. Poland's AK Home Army were inducted en mass, directly into Soviet Rifle Divisions.

The fascist slaughter of UnterMensch particularly in the East, is a horror without boundary.

The focus on religion is misleading, in this video.

[centurion180ad]

The old spelling and proper in this case is with a Z, for Le Partizan. It's properly, a French word.

And if you believe this, I have a bridge I want to sell you...

[ExposeZionistCrimes]

Is this a movie about Jewish terrorists?

[1320crusier]

and id like to see an IDF Merkava blow you away with its cannister shot so i guess we're even.

[1320crusier]

ummm... no. the Israelis should take out all of hamas, hezbollah, and the plo and not stop for the anti-israel UN. its been proven that giving those groups more land will only allow them to attack israel.
