ABSTRACT

Holocaust is an eternal topic not only of Jews but of all people of good will. In Lithuania, over 200,000 Jews have been murdered. First, the paper analyses the concept of Holocaust and it proves to be the greatest form of genocide. The development of war and massacre is overviewed. Having been settled since the 13th century, Jews happily lived here, in Lithuania they had “second Jerusalem”. They were in good contacts with neighbours but have been sent to death by Nazi occupants. It is a pity that Germans used to find assistants among Lithuanians. Much historical information is presented. Problematic topic penetrates: a rebellion against Nazis on June 23, 1941 and the pogroms (about 50 Jews have been killed in the garage of “Lietūkis” in Kaunas). The Congress of the USA has been investigating that Provisional Government did not manage the situation at that time, the authorities were in the hands of Gestapo. The author tried to perceive the circumstances of that time in an objective and sincere way. Those who raised the hand or took part in execution in an indirect way cannot be approved. With great dignity, the exiles to Siberia are remembered. About 6,000 Jews were among the exiled ones. Much attention is given to analyze how peace process between Jews and Lithuanians takes place. The most important thing is that psychological disagreement would not appear. Jews were, are, and will be the best people of Lithuania.
