In this volume, the first English-language account of the
underground Jewish resistance in Romania, I. C. Butnaru examines
the efforts that resulted in some 300,000 Romanian Jews surviving
the Holocaust. After detailing the rise of the fascist Iron Guards
and the consequences of German domination, Butnaru describes the
organization of the Jewish resistance movement, its various
contacts within the government, and its activities. While
emphasizing the role played by Zionist youth organizations which
smuggled Jews from Europe and arranged illegal emigration, Butnaru
also describes the role of Jewish parachutists from Palestine, the
links between the resistance and the key international Jewish
organizations, and even the links with the Gestapo. Waiting for
Jerusalem is the most comprehensive study of the efforts to save
the Jewish population of Romania, and, as such, will be of
considerable use to scholars and students of the Holocaust and
Eastern European Studies.
