	NCSJ - Remembering the Babi Yar Tragedy
		When the world did not react to Babi Yar, a green light was given to the Nazis that they could go forward with the mass extermination of the Jewish people with the knowledge that no one would lift a finger to stop them.
		That group, known as the Babi Yar Public Committee, believes that perpetuating the memory of the victims should become a government concern and not a private or sectarian initiative that may undermine the importance of the tragedy for the entire nation.
		But the secrets of Babi Yar became part of the accusations against senior Nazi officials at the Nuremberg trials and a monument was erected in Soviet times to the memory of the victims.

	Babi Yar
		The Babi Yar massacre was the first, planned, large-scale liquidation of Jews of large cities and the example of momentary, decisive solution of the Jewish question.
		Babi Yar is not just one among many sites where Jews were exterminated; it is the place which became the symbol for the destruction of Soviet Jewry, just as Auschwitz and Treblinka are places-symbols of Nazi bestiality and unimaginable evil in the tragedy of Western European Jewry.
		It is in this sense that Babi Yar is bestowed with particular meaning, which relates to the specific condition of Jews in Soviet Union: they had been killed as Jews, and denied the right to perpetuate the memory of the perished and mourn them as Jews.
