When one thinks of the Holocaust, we think of Auschwitz, Dachau;
and when we think of justice for this terrible chapter in history,
we think of Nuremberg. Not of Russia or the Ukraine, and certainly
not of a city called Kharkov. But in reality, the first war-crimes
trial against the Nazis was in this idyllic, peaceful Ukrainian
city, which is fitting, because it is also where the Holocaust
actually began.Eighteen months before the end of World War II two
full years before the opening statement by the prosecution at
Nuremberg three Nazi officers and a Ukrainian collaborator were
tried and convicted of war crimes and hanged in Kharkov s public
square. The trial is symbolic of the larger omission of the Ukraine
from the popular history of the Holocaust another deep irony, as
most of the first of the six million perished in the Ukraine long
before Hitler and his lieutenant seven decided on the formalities
of the Final Solution."
