© Tatiana TUR (USA), “Vechirniy Kyiv”(“Evening
Kyiv”), March 16th, 1996 Holocaust. Truth about Babyn Yar Documental research (Part
three) After examination of
photographs one can boldly say that in the period of German occupation nature in
Babyn Yar in the area of Jewish cemetery was not harmed. An analysis of the
aerophotographs, which was made during the German occupation, rejects a version
about even little entombments in gullies close by the Jewish graveyard. However,
here is what attracts attention. The Germans drove together thousands of Jews to
that part of Orthodox cemetery, which was not used at that time (now it’s the
terrain of the military graveyard), commanded to strip to the skin
to those, who didn’t want to give jewellery away of their own accord. After that
it was commanded to dress and Jews were led to the station “Tovarna” along the
eastern wall of the Orthodox cemetery and between the buildings of military
stores. At the station the prepared coaches were standing, by which they were,
probably, driven to the near collective farms or harried Minsk. If an average
reader can discern a pit and a solitary person on the aerophotographs, than how
one could not see the graves of 100 thousand people? During the World
War II the Germans deemed confiscation of Jewish gold a military
indemnity. In July of 1941 only in Lviv 5 tons of gold was confiscated from
Jews. The same Germans did in Lodz, Warsaw, Vilnyus, in every large Ukrainian
city. Germans made a ghetto for Jews in Lviv, so they were not driven out from
the city, as it was in Kyiv, where making such ghetto was not
planned. The first aim of Ukrainian
historians is to find the places, where Germans drove from Kyiv the Jewish
inhabitants, to research their further fate and, perhaps, the place of their
annihilation. We won’t succeed to find out it from “those who escaped” from
Babyn Yar – in reality they are the servants of NKVD. They do, as they did it in
the past, circulate the fib of Solomon Lozovskiy, Illya Erienburg and their
Soviet informational bureau. Even in an extreme old age this veterans of ChK,
NKVD and KGB do not cease vindicating their Bolshevik
lies. It is only possible to find
the truth in the Hitlerite card indices of the solitary SS-men, which hitherto
remain in Berlin Documentation
Center, until quite recently
controlled by Americans. There are more than a million of them there. In these
cards is written about the kinsfolk, salaries, wages, medals and punishments,
complied and not complied military tasks of every SS-man. So it is not difficult
to learn, who of them was in Kyiv in September - October
1941. The second method of
exploration of destiny of the deported Jews is the search in the bank books of
the central bank of Third Reich in Berlin. There is no doubt, that there is
written the quantity of gold and jewellery, which were confiscated from Jews in
Kyiv. In the American
national archives about one hundred tons of Hitlerite documents are kept, which
nobody has looked through yet. Maybe, there are twice more documents in archives
of the former Soviet Union. Probably, in them there is hidden the answer in the
Kyiv “riddle in conundrum”: TWO THOUSAND UKRAINIAN VICTIMS
OF HITLERISM ARE BURIED ON THE TERRAIN OF THE KYIV TELEVISION
TOWER. The weekly paper “Ukraine” and
“Liberalna gazeta”(Liberal newspaper) were the first who didn’t confine
themselves to the evidence of “those who escaped”, but described how with the
help of aerophotographs and local observation of the terrain the place of
interment of the majority of Ukrainian victims, killed by Hitlerites, and
poetess Olena Teliga among them. Near this common grave is one of the four prop.
Here, at the place of the interment, somebody of the employees of TV has planted
a raspberry-bushes and hitherto there grow two large limes, which are seen
little saplings on the photographs of the war times. Examination at the place in
November of 1993 discovered that the little memorial wooden cross at the meadow,
which is at a distance of 750 meters to the west from the terrain of the
television tower, is situated on the place that has nothing in common with the
common graves. Further from the graves of the victims of ChKa and Hitlerites the
bronze socialistic memorial to Babyn Yar is erected - at a distance of 300
meters to the South from the wooden cross. For the head of the Jewish
board of Ukraine I.Levitas Babyn Yar is a “riddle in conundrum”. Illya Levitas,
the head of the Jewish board of Ukraine (a union of Jewish communities in Ukraine), in
1993 in the article “Unguessed mysteries of Babyn Yar” in the weekly paper
“Yevreyskie vesti” (Jewish news) he advanced a belief about annihilation of
hundreds thousand of Jews in Babyn Yar. However, being a to some extent an
objective person, he reckoned and analysed fifteen contradictions in this entire
story, which confuse him and which he can not explain. That’s why he named the
story of Babyn Yar a “riddle in conundrum”. The head Levitas
writes about his confusion: “As we see the number of victims increases.
Nevertheless, the Extraordinary
commission of investigation of the fascist’s crimes on the occupied territory,
which began its activity immediately after the liberation of Kyiv, gave the
number of victims again with the German exactness – 33771. How did this number
got to the Extraordinary commission is also a mystery. The thing that the number
coincided again to within one person in our data and the data of our occupants –
is already a “riddle in conundrum”. In our opinion, the secret
reports of Einsatzgruppen, where this numbers are taken
from, is one of many Soviet or Alliance fakes. (To be
