An article by David Goldman, claiming, among other things, that no more than 4,500 people were killed in Jasenovac concentration camp, was removed from the website of an Israeli paper, Jerusalem Post, the Museum of Genocide Victims said on Aug. 18.
The Museum went on to say that on Aug. 18 the Jerusalem Post also published an article by Dejan Ristic, an acting director of the Museum, "stating undeniable historical facts as to the nature of the Jasenovac death camp," and the number of identified victims.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs had previously condemned a decision to publish David Goldman's article "This disgraceful mocking of the Holocaust needs to stop immediately," which the Ministry said offered a variety of incorrect information, presented maliciously. "This shameless attempt to rewrite history and relativize the most severe monstrosity in this part of the world has come as a shock to us," the Ministry had said.
The author, David Goldman's words that not more than 4,500 people were killed in the largest concentration camp in the Independent State of Craotia have offended not only the innocent victims of the Jasenovac camp, but also the common sense of Israeli and international readers, the Ministry has warned.
