There may have been 800,000 Roma, Serbs and Jews killed in Jasenovac and therefore should not be silent

Gideon Greyf, an Israeli historian and author of the book "Jasenovac, the Balkan Auschwitz", said that the joint Serbian-Croatian commission of 1945 came to the conclusion that there were approximately 1.4 million victims, and that later scientists confirmed that the minimum number of casualties in Jasenovac was 700,000 .

- Other books write "a few hundred thousand" but I would say the minimum number is 700,000, and maybe 800,000 Roma, Serbs and Jews and other innocent people. They were victims, and we must not keep silent about this, he stressed.

Greyf for TV Pink said a very important initiative to reconstruct and study all the mass graves of that period, with the emphasis that Israel in that segment has great experience and technology.

Greyf also noted that filming the Jasenovac film with renowned director Emir Kusturica considers as its moral obligation that this must be realized. Kusturica said he would do everything in his power, and I'm here to help him with his history, "said Greyf.

He pointed out that in some European countries, those who deny Nazism and the Holocaust are stronger and do everything to forget and fail.

 

History of Roma: Slaves in Europe

Roma in Europe moved about 1100 and their trades, such as making tessile, weapons and the like, were used by Europeans. But because of the different language and the dark color of the cosset, the attitude towards the Roma changed.

Due to the frequent wars in Europe, many trade routes were closed, the military and the population were hard-fed, they began to rely more on a free labor force for cheaper food and goods production. In other words, the Roma turned them into slaves.

The oldest document mentioning the Roma as slaves was between 1331 and 1355, during the reign of the Austrian military leader Rudolf IV and the king of Serbs, Bulgarians, Greeks and Albanians - Stefan Dushan, where one fifth of their Roma gave it to the monasteries and landowners.
Roma were divided as house slaves and slaves to work in the fields.
Otherwise Boyari (feudal aristocracy in Russia, Bulgaria, Moldova and Wallachia) were the most rigorous to their slaves. They had a special penal law where Roma beating on their feet was allowed until "meat hangs in towels". If they caught a fugitive, after ruthless whipping, they would place an iron bang around their necks with sharp spikes so that they could not move their head, and if they accidentally move up or fall asleep because those spikes around their necks would kill him.
In other parts of Europe, it was not so explicit the slavery of the Roma, but the situation may have been even worse. Pope Pius V tried in 1568 to embolden all Roma from that region under the influence of the Roman Catholic Church.
The Portuguese in the 17th and 18th centuries sent the Roma to their colonies in South America, Africa and India, while Portuguese King Ivan V developed obsessive hatred for the Roma and regularly sent them to Brazil and Angola without any charges against them.

In France, deportation decisions are from 1427, where they were initially only occasional, but from 1560, commands began to emigrate immediately to leave the country or to embark on galleries. King Louis XIV in 1682 gave orders that all Roma-moths in bands to embark on galleries, and women flog and be expelled from the kingdom without any form of trial.
Otherwise, in the German museum in Nordlingen - Nordlingen, many torture tortures used against Roma in Germany can be seen, as well as a poster showing Roma with fragmented skin and flesh from whipping, before they are taken to hanging, with the inscription "Punishment for Roma and Their Wives in this Country" The complete legal provision for the freedom of the Roma slaves, commonly known as the "Sloboda", where the European Roma people mention today, occurred in

1864th year. A coup and the government of the new Romanian state, under the leadership of Mikhail Kogalniceeanu, who represented the advanced wing, passed a law that abolishes slavery and domination and gave it the land to the peasants.

"Roma" nominated for "Oscar"

Roma "has already left a mark on the world film and festival scene in the past period.Roma is a 2018 drama film written and directed by Alfonso Cuarón, who also produced, co-edited and shot the film.

A co-production of Mexico and the United States, it stars Yalitza Aparicio and Marina de Tavira. Set in 1970 and 1971, the film is a semi-autobiographical take on Cuarón's upbringing in Mexico City, and follows the life of a live-in housekeeper to a middle-class family.

The title refers to Colonia Roma, a neighborhood in the city.The design of the picture was meticulous in its re-creation of Cuarón’s memories. The director and his production designer, Eugenio Caballero, luckily found a house in the Roma neighborhood that was set for demolition and restructured it to look exactly as the Cuarón family home did in the early 1970s, adding sliding walls and a removable roof to allow for natural lighting.
