Open Letter To Oskar Deutsch : INTOLERABLE TORTURE

Dear Mr Deutsch,

I write this email to you today to ask for your action to support a mother, a member of your community who has for the last decade suffered intolerable torture in being torn away from her twin sons. 

A life lesson I was taught by my late grandfather from Pirkei Avot 4:13 

“There are three crowns — the crown of Torah, the crown of priesthood and the crown of sovereignty — but the crown of good name surmounts them all.”

This is your opportunity Mr Deutsch to assist and support the efforts of so many others from around the globe to reunite Beth with her children and earn the title of a “keser shem tov” - the crown of a good name. 

This situation Beth has found herself in cannot sit right with you as an upstanding member of the community in Austria.

I knew Beth personally during our school days in Manchester some 20+ years ago. Beth is undoubtedly one of the kindest and most caring people I have ever met and it is nothing short of tragic that her boys have missed out on sharing everyday moments with their mum. 

Please right this wrong and do whatever you can to speedily reunite Beth with her boys IY”H. 


Many thanks for your time in reading this email. 


Kind regards,

Ben Cooper
