Making Choices: The Dutch Resistance During World War II | Full Movie | John Witte
A moving and well crafted first hand account of four Dutch survivors of the 1940 Nazi invasion of Holland who helped protect total strangers from certain death.
Explore the dramatic wartime lives of four Dutch citizens who took a stand to protect Jews and resist the overwhelming power of the Nazis during World War II. This inspiring documentary tells their stories of fear and courage, danger and faith as they put their lives on the line to do what they thought was right. Featuring four participants in the Dutch Resistance who now make their home in America, Making Choices reveals what motivated them to risk everything to protect total strangers and the heavy price they paid for challenging the Nazis.

I was born in Rotterdam in 1943. My father was called up got forced labour in Germany. My mother gave me to her mother and we went to her hotel in Arnhem. My mother followed my father dresses as a nurse and helped him escape. They lived underground till the war was over. Our family eventually reunited and my father decided to emigrate from the mess of Europe. He chose Australia as he had been born in Dutch East Indies. We never talked about the war. I later joined the Australian Army becoming a lieutenant colonel.

He didn't speak about it but family knew and proudly, but quietly, told my brother and I.

That saying is in the Jewish Talmud. "He who saves one life is as if he has saved the world entire." That saying was later ripped off by the Muslims and Mohammad as it is found also in the Hadiths of Islam. You will hear Muslims swear to you it is an original Muslim saying but the Talmud came centuries before Islam. It is a very nice proverb.
@robertarisz8464
@robertarisz8464 3 года назад
Yes, it is a saying of the Jewish Religion, but even as an atheist, I fully agree with it. I think that, when faced with making a hard choice - doing the right thing to save another person instead of just looking after yourself - you confirm the one thing that really matters. Namely, saying that you are part of a larger group and that putting the group ahead of yourself is the thing that is inane to our species and key to our survival. This is what he was talking about when he said that he regretted nothing.

What a fantastic documentary. My wife is Swedish. Her grandfather was in the Swedish underground (yes, there was a Swedish underground) and would smuggle Danish Jews into Sweden. We still have the watch he used (1939 Bulova - black onyx face, mother-of-pearl hour markers, with the original crystal cover - including the small crack that was there when her grandfather gave it to her father, who gave it to my wife) when he would smuggle Jews in. I am a BIG follower of WW2, I have studied and taught it. The amazing things that were done by ordinary people during that time is astounding to me. My father-in-law, being the first true Swede I had ever met and was 12 in 1939, and I would have conversations about his growing up in Sweden during the war. He knew his father was in the underground and he was sent to near Lapland to stay with his grandparents with his brothers, sisters and mother while his father stayed in Stockholm. Fascinating to me.

Most history of the Hollywood type is written by Americans. The Netherlands were liberated by Canadians in some of the hardest hedgerow to hedgerow fighting of the war. Canadian veterans are still celebrated as liberators in Holland today. Every Canadian war grave is assigned to a Dutch child who cares for it, writes to the family and send photos if requested. My father and stepfather were both in Holland in 1945 and had stories of the gratitude shown by the Dutch as each town was liberated. The women of the Dutch royal family also were sheltered in Canada during the war and when the future queen was born in an Ottawa hospital, the Canadian government declared it to be a Dutch consulate so she was officially born on Dutch soil to avoid any citizenship issues later.

The Royal Dutch family fled like the cowards they are. Not one of their palaces or possessions was touched by the Nazis. The royal family's role was despicable and my parents became anti-royalists from then on. If it had been up to Roosevelt they would not have been allowed back in but he died before Mien Tippel (Wilhelmina) just brazenly took control again. Truman did not know any better. Eisenhower, as the Governor General, resisted her as well but was also pressured by a higher authority. Canada should have refused them but it was a crown colony in those days and was told by the Windsors to take them in. Why the Canadians are so proud of that floors me.

Such brave people. We are now in more harrowing times. The time of the end, where as the bible says, good will become evil and evil will become good. Natural disasters will occur all over the world. The people of God will be persecuted. We need to rely totally on the Lord, as the good people in this video have done.

You think today is worse? You better read more about the Third Reich and the Japanese Empire and the Stalinist pogroms. The only way today is worse is that people have no sense of self sacrifice or responsibility to others. And no sense of Hope.

I'm watching this in stages. It's hard. My mum was around John Witte's age and she was in the Dutch Resistance in Utrecht. She told me a lot of stories. But I wish she'd told me more. She died in 2011.

She used to take Jewish children to safe houses and pretend they were her nieces and nephews. I often wonder if some of them are still alive and remember her. Pretty, blonde, lively, Gijsbertha van Dijkhuizen.

In most documentaries on the holocaust, you never hear any survivors talk about the grace of God or give any credit to God at all for their survival. This documentary is so refreshing to hear of Christians incorporate Jesus into their struggles and survival. I absolutely loved it! Thank you for sharing

Great respect for the resistance in a country with no hills and mountains. There is no place to hide and find shelter in Holland. A band couldn't ambush the enemy and escape to safety, the way the Yugoslav and Greek partisans did. Dutch resistance fighters were real heroes.

The Dutch had the highest amount of Nazi collaborators in the war, and by far. And some of the most despicable of all were Dutch. Such as Andries Riphagen who sold out hundreds if not thousands of Jewish families. The country fell to the Nazis in just days. If there was a resistance like this it was very small, and certainly had to fight uphill. Against many of their own people as well as the Germans. God Bless the few who had the courage.
@bluebear6570

Same as in France! The Netherlands had more members in the Resistance than inhabitants. And, of course, no one ever colloberated. Funny, no one ever speaks about the German resistance movements. There were quite a few!

​@@yvontaart4274 They were also shaving the heads of their women who had been "collaborating" with the Germans, just as in France and Denmark, Belgium, Norway.... I think the German resistance was more active before the war, between 1933 et 1939, when they have all been massacred by the Nazi Regime.

The dates these are done is more important than some know. The date they go on video too. These people are talking at 100 yrs ago and they were 20yrs old? It's true some were sent out for documentary for the earth witness. To learn see and understand. Many know with what seems delight when others are not enthused. Much could have stopped this. It was polished to a concluded era until we see that pattern playing out
