In his National Jewish Book Award–winning book The Holocaust by Bullets, Father Patrick Desbois and his organization Yahad – In Unum, documented for the first time the murder of 1.5 million Jews in Ukraine during World War II, based on wartime records, interviews with locals, and the application of modern forensic practices on long-hidden gravesites. Nearly a decade of further work by his team, drawing on interviews with four thousand neighbors of the Jews, has resulted in stunning new findings about the extent and nature of the genocide. In Broad Daylight documents mass killings in seven countries formerly part of the Soviet Union that were invaded by Nazi Germany. It shows how these murders followed a template, or script, which included a timetable that was duplicated from place to place. Far from being kept secret, the killings were done in broad daylight and deliberately involved the local inhabitants in the mechanics of death—whether it was to cook for the killers, to dig or cover the graves, to witness their Jewish neighbors being marched off, or to take part in the slaughter. The Nazis availed themselves of local structures and people in order to make the Eastern Holocaust happen.

  • Yoni Rechter
    Yoni Rechter Teev Events Inc. 16501 Ventura Blvd, Encino, CA 91436 Tel (818) 483-8818, Fax (818) 482-2708 www.teev.com Biography Composer, pianist, singer and arranger, Yoni Rechter has made a major contribution to Israeli music in a career spanning more than 40 years, and is considered among Israel’s most important musicians. In the dozens of songs that Yoni composed, he created a wide variety of styles, incorporating numerous influences, from Sixties pop (mostly Beatles) to Jazz, Israeli to classical, east and west, into a fascinating personal statement. Rechter always composes with originality, great sensitivity to text, and for the best performers. He is considered the mark of quality and integrity in Israeli music. Yoni’s music is sophisticated and ever unexpected, constantly shifts tones and beats, and his classical piano training is evident. Many of his compositions have become staples of Israeli music, and one has on several occasions been voted the most popular Israeli song of all times. Yoni has worked closely with many of Israel’s top artists, including Arik Einstein, Gidi Gov, and Yehudit Ravitz. Perhaps his two most well-known collaborations are the legendary Kaveret group (a.k.a. Poogy), and Hakeves Ha-16 (The 16th Sheep), released in 1978 and still Israel’s most-popular album of children’s songs. A sought-after musical director, producer and arranger, Yoni has worked on numerous musicals, films, dance and albums. Rechter has also written classical music, and the Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra performed a concert dedicated to his songs and compositions. Hebrew University, Honoris causa Born in Tel Aviv, Yoni started playing piano at the age of 7, and decided to be a musician at age 12 when he discovered the Beatles.

  • Catholic Priest Issues ‘Wake-Up’ Call on Growing Anti-Semitism
    Catholic priest issues ‘wake-up’ call on growing anti-Semitism The world must “wake up” to a a frightening rise in attacks on Jews, says a priest who is a leading Vatican advisor on Judaism. Electoral successes for the ultra-right across Europe is being accompanied by a frightening rise in attacks on Jews while left wing parties give ethical cover to anti-Semites with constant criticism of Israel, Fr. Patrick Desbois said at an event hosted by the Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Centre for Holocaust Studies at Toronto’s Glenn Gould Theatre Oct. 15. “We have to wake up,” said Desbois, who heads the Commission for Relations with Judaism of the French Bishops’ Conference. “Everywhere the right is winning. What are we waiting for? I hope we will not wake up too late.” The world-renowned investigator who has uncovered the record and methods of Nazi death squads between 1941 and 1945 said his next challenge will be to investigate contemporary crimes against Jews in France. “The next challenge to me is to investigate my own country,” he told a crowd that included Holocaust survivors and families who wonder about the fate of their ancestors in the former Soviet Union. A constant, weekly drum beat of terrorist attacks targeting Jews in France is transforming the country, Desbois said. “France is a nice country. We have 20 million tourists a year,” he said. “But we have military even around Notre Dame Cathedral.” Desbois is the founder of Yahad-In Unum, a French organization that locates sites of mass graves of executed Jews in the former Soviet Union, and the author of The Holocaust by Bullets and In Broad Daylight.

While the atrocities of the concentration camps are well-known, this genocide perpetrated as far east as Ukraine, Belarus, Russia, Romania or even part of Poland is not common knowledge. Until today the work of Yahad – in Unum has confirmed the location of hundreds of mass graves, many previously unknown. Up today, about 3000 Ukrainian, Belarusian, Polish, Russian, Moldovan, Romanian and Lithuanian witnesses to the executions have been interviewed and their testimony recorded. Yahad – in Unum’s research has accelerated in recent months as investigators race to identify and document as many of the graves as possible while remaining witnesses are still alive. Yahad also started in 2013 a specific research on Lithuanian genocide.
