It's an unfair moniker on the Jews.
The final indignity of the Holocaust.

:03:05
That was something
that over time became. . .

:03:08
. . .a force behind
getting this movie made.

:03:12
We know that 300,000 Warsaw Jews. . .
:03:15
. . .have been sent to Treblinka,
a death camp, or simply murdered.

:03:21
For now, deportations have ceased.
:03:23
When they resume,
we will no longer submit.

:03:27
We're going to respond
with armed resistance!

:03:31
Mordechai Anielewicz,
and his friends. . .

:03:35
. . .founded this resistance,
an underground movement to undermine. . .

:03:39
. . .deportations to the death camps and
to pester and kill Nazis in any way.

It was an idealistic organization. . .

:04:09
. . .was that these people
fought for honor.

:04:13
I felt it was so devoid
from most of our lives.

:04:16
Recently with the tragedy
at the World Trade Center. . .

:04:21
. . .you saw people there behave
with great honor and great valor.

:04:26
From the firefighters, to policemen,
to ordinary citizens.

:04:30
Part of what's coming out of the ashes,
if there is a phoenix rising out. . .

:04:36
. . .it's a sense of sacrifice and of
recognition of honor on all levels.

:04:42
From the most mundane,
to the most obviously heroic.

:04:46
That moved me, that these kids decided
to fight knowing they would die.

:04:53
Once they organized and decided,
''We're going to fight to the death'' . . .

:04:58
. . .they never thought any of them
would live. They thought. . .
