The freeze-frame montage style of composition is reminiscent of photos from this period of history, a poignant reminder that the pogroms were very real and not merely the stuff of sentimental drama. For all the criticism you can level at Fiddler, you'll be hard pressed to find a musical that gives such sensitivity to its serious subject matter. It never fails to move me.

It's possible, if there were Jews who moved to nearby countries like Poland, Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia or Ukraine that if they lived close enough to the Soviet borders, they might have escaped back into the USSR during the war.

However, most of the Jews living in Central and Western Europe would not have been very lucky a few decades later, with the Nazis coming into power and promoting genocide.

[@hermanwooster8944]

Hannah is right. To add, the Soviet Union and their satellite countries began persecuting Jews for maintaining their religion. This persecution only increased as Israel became successful and began winning wars in the Middle East. Soviet Jews who wanted to immigrate to Israel were denied the ability to leave and some of them were thrown into insane asylums for even asking.

This is the only inaccurate part of the story. Jews were not exiled en masse with towns and villages ordered to get out. That sort of thing had to wait for the Soviet Union.

All the pogroms were instigated by local authorities and police and not the central goverment, though the Tsar did not do enough to stop the pogroms.

the pogroms were brutal and sadistic. My husband's Grandmother was one who fled from a village like this.

[@hannahrozenberg3411]

I just did a presentation of the migration of Russian Jews to the United States, and I actually spoke about the pogroms, and that the government permitted the Russians to carry out the Pogroms. What they did get right in the movie was the poverty, since most Jews in Russia lived in the Pale of Settlement. And living in the Settlement meant you could not leave, so poverty was very high in the Shtetls. That was another factor that pushed Jews in Russia to leave.

But to all who did receive Him, who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God, who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.'

[@elliottsteinberg4463]

actually they're not. If you're talking about the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood, that's a tenant dispute - Jews bought land in the 1800s, were pushed out by Jordan in 1948, and proved their ownership in 1967 when Israel took back the land from Jordan. The Palestinians living there had no proof of ownership, but were allowed to rent from the owners for decades. They stopped paying rent because the new owners want to redevelop, and have been contesting their situation for many many years in one court after another, now the supreme court. Nobody would have paid attention to this universal issue if it weren't in Israel. Dare I say Israel treats Palestinians better than their Arab brethren - unless they choose to be terrorists. The PA and Hamas do nothing for their citizens, and Israel has to fix their electricity and water lines and send aid at their own cost, because Israel is a humanitarian country. Their record treating the sick and wounded from the Territories and Syria and their massive aid programs around the world prove that. That is a Jewish value. The value of human life. When Palestinians choose to terrorize, they clearly don't value lives - their own or their victims.

Remember there's the Women in Black movement, Palestinian and Israeli women working together for peace in Palestine. From what I've heard the opinions and actions of the everyday Israeli people in regards to Palestinians is a very different one from the actions and opinions of the Israeli government and army in regards to the Palestinians, and that many Israeli's are pushed around by the government as well. The late Israeli singer Ofra Haza was apparently a big advocate for peace and supported Palestine. And just under a year ago I saw a news video about Jewish university students in America holding a public demonstration in support of Palestine, saying that it was their responsibility as jewish people to support Palestinian liberation. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGXamKGcocqjgKc

I like how the Christian characters are portrayed as being sympathetic to the Jews, but powerless to help, because in real life, nobody is more prosemetic than Christians. Well, at least the Jews have traded the cold Russian village for their home in Jerusalem and Tel-Aviv.

[@vinmaison2862]

Actually the vast majority went To the US.

[@broadstreet21]

@@vinmaison2862 True, but from there, they went to Israel. That nation probably would not be reborn had the Jews not been kicked out of Europe (or fled from the Holocaust).

[@lordgarmadon2598]

@@broadstreet21 I know this sounds horrible and it certainly sounds horrible. If the Holocaust never happened, the state of Israel would have never existed. The lesson here is that even the most horrible events have a place in God's eternal plan. God's deeds are incomprehensible to us humans but we must try to interpret them with the limited capacity that our brains allow us to.

[@Arcaryon]

@@lordgarmadon2598 If that was part of a god's plan he is no god of mine. If it wasn't, he is not a god one should have faith in. God if you want to call it that way can not live up to our expectations.

Except for the inspector who referred to them as 'trouble-makers' and 'christ killers' and the soldiers who raided the village. And the group of men who started harassing Chava before Fyedka told them to leave her alone. The rest of the people from the other side of the village, including the Russian Orthodox priest seemed to treat them civilly at least.

never understand why they just accept it so easily

[@allandavis931]

Interesting you say that, now when Israel fights back and defends itself against those that wish to destroy them the world condemns them.

[@RivkahSong]

Because history had shown that if they don't comply, they will be met with violence. Have you ever heard the kids rhyme "In 1492 Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean blue"? Well Jews remember that date for a different reason. That's the year the same royals who sent out Columbus ordered that all Jews within the country convert, leave, or face the Spanish Inquisition. Many were tortured and killed. The entire population of Jewish people packed up, were forced to sell the things they couldn't carry for a fraction of their value, and left the country. That same pattern has been repeating for literally thousands of years. What else could they do?

[@padawanguy360]

@@lordgarmadon2598 not the world, most of the world doesn't care. It's just a vocal part that is against Israel.

[@mariasmith2198]

Because they are outnumbered far more then a 1000 to one. Because they have no weapons. Because they are not trained soldiers, and the people coming to kill them would be. Because they did not wish to see their children die for absolutely no reason. There isa difference between brave and stupid. But don't worry. Once they were given their land back of Israel, they never once backed down from defending it.
