Open Letter To Oskar Deutch : CRUELTY OF SUCH MAGNITUDE

Dear Mr Deutsch,

I studied at Cambridge University with Beth Alexander. I shared in the joy of her marriage and courageous move to Vienna in pursuit of love. And I shared, together with all the Anglo-Jewish community, in the unfolding horror of her separation from her sons. 

We know that the crime of separating tiny children from their mother could not be carried out by one person alone. We know that the legal system bear much responsibility in this. But we know as well that the Jewish community lives and breathes as one, and that no cruelty of this magnitude could be perpetuated within it for so many years if the community leadership stood up against it.

Please show some concern for your fellow Jews. Please take a stand against the alienation of Beth, a good, loving mother, from her children. 

Thank you for your attention.

Yours sincerely,

Jessica Sacks.
