“I agree Holtzmann, Japan’s a ‘continuing threat’... as is Hitler... But so are the Jews who want to own Russia!
Fanny:
“This Jew’s here to save Russia from Japan Ivan!... First step is selling China supplies... then Stalin convincing Mao to join forces with KMT against Japan, together they’ll win for us!
“AND IVAN...PRODUCTIVE JEWS ARE NOT THE PROBLEM...SLAVERY, CONTROL & PROFITS ARE”

JEWS NEED A HAVEN IN A JEW HATING WORLD...FANNY PICKS SHANGHAI...
JAPAN’S COUNSEL GENERAL CHIUNE SUGIHARI HOLDS THE FREEDOM KEYS
Sugihara thinks Fanny’s idea of Japan gaining favor with powerful American and Jews worldwide is very desirable.
“If issuing Visas to Jews for Shanghai gains eternal favor for Japan then it is workable... though against instructions.
SUGIHARA ARRANGES VISAS FOR 500 MIR YESHIVA RABBIS, STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES... “YOUR PEOPLES FAITH IS KEY TO THEIR FUTURE FANNY”
Sugihara commits to having his occupying forces in Shanghai protect and not kill or enslave European Jews. He will allow Jews to prosper in their own Shanghai ghetto.

FANNY ENLISTS CHINESE MOSES!...AND HAS JAPAN PROTECTING JEWS!
Fanny’s introduced to Ho Feng Shan by Dr. Koo in Vienna, Austria. Ho is the first Chinese Diplomat to take action to save Jews at her suggestion. Fanny has to get her Polish family to Vienna to obtain Visas...Eddie has a plan...
In total defiance of his superior's orders,
(Nationalist Chinese government's consulate in Vienna)
Ho issues thousands of visas to Jews...
The Visas Ho issued were Unique! -- they were only for Shanghai, occupied by Japan, who will
allow the Jewish Ghetto to grow to over 24,000...
Holders of Ho's visas didn't all travel to Shanghai, they were able to get a transit visa and escape elsewhere – Palestine, Argentina or to any nation that will accept Jews! Maybe someday...America!
Fanny’s safe haven plan for Jewish refugees is working
Jews hoping for Visas in Nazi Vienna
Ho Feng Shan
When the Nazis confiscated Ho’s embassy premises because it was owned by a Jew, Ho opened a new office with his own money to continue and save them from death camps.
Fanny lobbies the West to help stop Japan from killing millions and controlling China’s resources & manpower... and most of Asia!

Fanny’s Arrows Hit Their Marks!
”Fanny is a small, delicate, mouse like creature given to wearing floppy hats in the spring and creating a first impression of wistful helplessness...
Helpless, indeed... Fanny is about as helpless as the Bethlehem Steel Company and as delicate
as Jack the Ripper”
~Moss Hart American Playwright
“Fanny Holtzmann is a lethal, boring, intriguing creative bitch ....... I hate and loathe her very, very much indeed.... although I am perfectly willing to allow her to handle my American tax problems for the next year or so... - Noel Coward
“It is impossible to argue with Fanny, because her gift of talking incessantly in a soft voice is so highly developed that her opponent is conscious not of conflicting sound but only of the fact that he is getting nowhere.”
~ Margaret Case Harriman
FANNY WAS ASKED ABOUT HER FEES: “Yes, I Get Paid More Then Male Attorney’ & Charge Clients Less! My Chosen Clients Don’t Pay
For My Thinking Time... But,
I’m Paid Very Well For My Expert Advise and Delivered Results!!!”
- Fanny Holtzmann
“Her gift as an attorney was not necessarily in her ability to try a case or to write a brief. Her strength was her people skills.
L.B. Mayer referred to her as the “Female Solomon.”
Fanny’s Grandpa tells her: “God told me: “Fanny will help Fulfill My Promise!”
“So Like Moses you can never give up or lose faith...Never! “God chose you...so you must
be more disciplined, educated and resourceful then all men... And Wiser...”

George Bernard Shaw wrote Fanny "I have an ideal catch for you, rich, famous and 90... Me”


San Francisco - June 1945 - U.N. Formation Republic of China & Peoples Republic of China’s leaders make public that American Jew Fanny Holtzmann is their advisor. Fanny’s the charming lady ringmaster clarifying China’s value and future in the new world order...
FANNY’S ISRAEL STATEHOOD DREAMS...
Fanny finally gets Zionism and China to really bond at the founding of the United Nations in San Francisco where the debate on the Partition of Palestine is taking place.
Dr. Israel Goldstein, president of the Zionist Organization of America, is on hand with a delegation to ensure that the Jewish rights and goals in Palestine would not be jeopardized.
Fanny introduces all the Zionist and Jewish activists to the Chinese delegates including Ambassador to Britain, Dr. Wellington (VK) Koo and canvasing all attendees on behalf of China and a Jewish State.
Insurmountable vote challenges arise: Fanny reminds
Dr. Goldstein about his old friend Chinese General ‘Two Gun Cohen’ she urges Goldstein to call and persuade Cohen to fly to San Francisco to provide a friendly introduction to his Comrade in Arms the inaccessible head of the Chinese delegation, General Tung Pi-Wu.
Upon meeting the Zionist delegation, General Wu, a recent convert to Christianity, said, “You are my spiritual brothers. There will be no true peace unless justice is done to the Jewish
people.”

While awaiting the 1947 U.N. Israel State voting session reporters surround Fanny, she turns to... Only Female Reporter:
“Can you share details of getting to this historic point for the Jewish People Miss Holtzmann?... ...And some personal journey’s?”...
Male Reporter to Fanny:
How did you get funding to buy east river land and to build the United Nations headquarters?
Fanny:
“It was the Rockefellers vision and generosity that turned their land to a cornerstone for world peace,
equal prosperity and new ideals”...
“Democratic America and NYC in particular is the perfect place of addressing and peacefully resolving the differences between Nations.”

FANNY REVEALS THE INESCAPABLE DAMAGE TRAP MGM IS IN...
Fanny informs MGM that her clients Prince Felix and Princess Irina Yousepoff are planning to sue the studio for the pain and humiliation MGM’s ‘Rasputin’ film has caused them. But she is prepared to settle...
Fact: Prince Felix, Rasputin’s actual murderer – portrayed in the film by John Barrymore as Prince Chegodieff – is now married to Princess Irina. Fanny argues that the Princess Natasha character, engaged to Chegodieff in MGM’s film and raped by Rasputin, was by historic implication Felix’s wife, Princess Irina.
Fanny: “As the Princess never met Rasputin this rape never happened! The portrayal of such a untrue violation as a reality in your film defamed the Princess’ character worldwide, and like it or not, that was, and is Libel and Defamation gentlemen!”

NOW FANNY HAS A JEWISH CHINESE WAR BROTHER!!!
Moshe Avraham (Morris) Cohen aka ”Cohen Moishe, the White Terror”
From 1926 to 1928 Cohen (General Mah Kun) functioned in all but name as the Nationalist’s war minister, taking part in campaigns both against the Communist rebels, which began in 1927, and also the Japanese. He undertook several secret missions to Europe to purchase arms and organize support for the Nationalist forces. In the full on civil war between the two Chinese factions – the Communist People’s Republic of China, led by Mao Zedong, and Chiang Kai-shek’s Republic of China – amazingly, General Cohen and Fanny Holtzmann were the only ones trusted by both leaders. Both sides used Fanny as Western world advisor and used each of them as a middle-man or a ‘conduit’, between China, Europe, America, Taipei and Beijing.
