Largest Holocaust Survivors Organization Invites Mel Gibson to Meet With Members

The “1939 Club,” one of the largest
Holocaust Survivor Organizations in the world, today said that if Mel
Gibson would like to learn about the Holocaust, its members would be
pleased to meet with and educate him about what it is like to be a Jew both
in an anti-Semitic and free society.

William Elperin, president of the “1939 Club” said, “Mr. Gibson said he
‘is asking the Jewish community, whom I have personally offended, to help
me on my journey through recovery.’ Our members are offering that help, by
assisting Mr. Gibson in understanding the extremes of anti-Semitism and
what they and their families — many of whom were slaughtered by the Nazis
— endured.”
