He spoke Yiddish like a Jew
The mass murder of Jews by the local population during Operation Barbarossa was as common in Northern Bukovina and Bessarabia as in eastern Poland, Lithuania, or Galicia. Residents in many localities in these areas seized the “window of opportunity” between the flight of the Soviet administration and the arrival of Romanian or German forces to murder Jews on their own initiative. Plundering was a key component of the pogroms that took place every…
The Rape of Jewish Women and Girls during the First Phase of the Romanian Offensive in the East, July 1941
While several studies of the sexual violence perpetrated by the Wehrmacht in the East have been published in recent years, the violent sexual behaviour of Romanian troops during the Second World War has not yet been systematically examined.

The sources analysed, mainly survivors’ testimonies, suggest that the rape of Jewish women and girl…

A re‐analysis of several surveys indicates that Catholics are indeed still different politically from the overall Swiss population. But these differences between C…
