Once again, the National Committee
which deals with Memorial and Liberation Days, 4 and 5 May respectively in the
Netherlands, has given preference to the German attitude after the war over the
wishes of the families of the victims of the German SS’s murderers. The
committee, together with the municipality of the town of Breda refuses to
include the names of the 22 victims of the Dutch-German war criminal and
murderer Klaas Carel Faber in the list of memorial ceremonies. German President
Joachim Gauck will visit Breda on National Liberation Day on May 5th. A protest
committee has been organized which opposes the visit of Gauck unless he brings
Faber, who has received a life sentence in the Netherlands but escaped from
jail, with him from Germany.
