The Case of David Rubitsky
Executive summary
45 yrs after WW2 a Jew named Rubinsky claims he held off a Bonzi charge of 5000 Japs single handed in New Guinea . In his 18 hr fight he killed 600 and wounded countless. He said he is being denied the Meda of Honor by Anti-Semitic forces
New York Times campaign
In November 1989 on the front page of the New York Times a campaign began for belated recognition of the courage of David Rubitsky for his actions some 47 years earlier fighting the Japanese. Mr. Rubitsky then a communications sergeant armed only with .30 caliber machine gun, a carbine and an automatic rifle was a lone soldier holding back the Japanese. In the jungles of New Guinea Sgt. Rubitsky killed or wounded some 500 to 600 Japanese soldiers trying to force themselves past him. Two of his former commanders recommended him for the Medal of Honor. These two stated Sgt. Rubitsky did not get his award because a superior officer believed a Jew should not get it. The most compelling evidence supporting Mr. Rubitsky was a handwritten message on the back of a photograph removed just after the battle from the body of a Japanese officer. The officer, Colonel Yamamoto, had committed suicide to atone for the loss of 600 fine Japanese soldiers killed by a lone American soldier. In an interview with National Public Radio Mr. Rubitsky graphically recounted the fighting which went on all night. Mr. Rubitsky admitted to being insane from shooting and bayoneting them.

The Anti-Defamation League assisted Mr. Rubitsky in his claim as they insisted Jews had been underrepresented in the awarding of Medals of Honor for bravery. Mr. Rubitsky claimed his home had been defaced by attacks and the scrawling of the swastika on his door. Sympathetic reporters took up his case in the pages of the Los Angeles Times and Time magazine. Mr. Rubitsky swore he was far more interested in justice than medals |
70 Congressman support Rubinsky
Some two months later the matter seemed to have died a natural death. If Mr. Rubitsky's claim had been true, his prowess and courage would have taken him above and beyond the Audie Murphy and Sergeant York level to the George Washington and John Wayne level. His total of 600 enemy soldiers dead was several multiples of enemies killed by any previous Medal of Honor winners. Yet the outlandish claims on behalf of Mr. Rubitsky did not deter 70 members of Congress from supporting the claim. |
Army investigation calls it a Total Fraud
The army found the story put forth by Mr. Rubitsky was a myth. The commanding officer who allegedly said "Jews don't get the Medal of Honor" had been relieved of his command the day after the mythical battle and had nothing to do with either forwarding or forgetting the original affidavits. The key witness for the claim of Mr. Rubitsky, the officer reputed to have seen the bodies of the slain Japanese, was placed back at battalion headquarters writing reports. As regards the photograph, both Japanese and American experts declared it a forgery. |
The real preposterous nature of the claim was that Representative Nita Lowey had sent a "Dear Colleague" letter to House members asking them to support Mr. Rubitsky's claim for a Medal of Honor. That the action took place some 47 years earlier did not cause the 70 members who signed to express any circumspection. The Anti-Defamation League had been pressing the army to review the case. Once the issue of anti-Semitism had been raised, the emotional and political aspect of the proposed award overwhelmed any sense of caution by politicians. A columnist for the Christian Science Monitor asked the staff of Representative Lowey and two other Congressional members for a copy of the correspondence regarding Mr. Rubitsky. All claimed to have lost it. One office claimed to have lost the entire file concerning Mr. Rubitsky. This has been a common response when ludicrous claims on behalf of Jews are challenged. Nobody would say anything. All forget.
Some Jewish statistics
Not one Jew was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam. A legitimate question to be asked has been where did many, if not most, of the Vietnam War dead come from. A tentative answer can be gleaned from looking at the dead of Logan County, West Virginia. With a population of 45,000 the county had 48 young men die in Vietnam. The death rate of Logan County was roughly four times the national average for that war. Two of the dead, Ted Belcher and Frankie Molnar, received the Medal of Honor posthumously for their bravery. To put the sacrifice and courage of these men in perspective, during World War II American Jewry with a population of almost five million were awarded two Medals of Honor for their courage. Yet these men from a depressed coal mining area in West Virginia were typical of the men who received no sympathy or recognition from a national media more concerned with childish exhibitions of rectitude and sleaziness. These white hillbillies died at almost 25 times the rate the Jews of America died. Yet they are lampooned and denied dignity by Jews who control the American media.
