The Unspeakable Things That Happened During The Romanian Holocaust In WW2

  • One of the seemingly endless tragedies of the Holocaust was that the rise of the Nazis encouraged anti-Semitic movements and violent actions by other nations. One government allied to Hitler during WWII was Romania. Romania had allied itself with Hitler as protection against the Soviet Union, with which it shares a long border. For that protection, Hitler received the bulk of the sizable Romanian oil production and a government friendly to his anti-Semitic policies.
    Before we begin, we ask that you take a look at our recent video “The History of anti-Semitism”, which will provide a bit more background and understanding of the horrible phenomenon of the prejudice that led to the Holocaust. We also would like you to know that we at “A Day in History” understand that modern Romania in no way resembles the fascist Romanian state of WWII, despite unhinged outbursts from the small number of Romanian ultra-nationalists who deny the Holocaust or Romania's part in it.
    If you find this video interesting, please tell your friends about us, and “like and subscribe.”
    Romania before WWII
    In 1877-78, Romania won its independence from the Ottoman Empire, which had controlled it since the mid-1500s. In 1908, the neighboring Bulgarians also achieved independence from the Ottomans.
    In 1918, with the end of WWI, other countries became independent in central and southeast Europe: Austria, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Poland, and Czechoslovakia.
    One of the good things about both the Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian Empires was that both had kept a lid on the ethnic and religious hatreds that had existed in the area for hundreds of years. While there were numerous incidents of ethnic violence while these nations were ruled by other more powerful states, they did not come close to the level of violence which occurred with independence and the coming of Nazism and WWII.
    At the time of the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union, Romania was ruled by Marshal Ion Antonescu, a WWI Romanian hero. By the time WWII began Antonescu had been a well-known extreme right-wing politician and army officer for thirty-years, having taken part in a brutal suppression of a peasants' revolt in 1907.
    Antonescu's anti-Semitism was a product both of time, place, position, combined with personal history. As a child, Antonescu's father had taken the rare step, for that time and place, of divorcing the future leaders' mother for a Jewish woman he had been having an affair with. Despite the fact that Antonescu's dad forced the woman to convert to Orthodox Christianity, to Antonescu she was always “an evil Jewish woman” who had broken up his happy childhood home.

      That's untolerable.... because what happened to the Jews and Gipsy in ex Russian Moldova, couldn't happen in historical Roumania provinces.
      There was a begging of Shoah in Chichinev Moldova, but was stopped in her tracks when Roumanian jewish and gipsy soldiers went on leave home and found about the begging of the genocide. They went mad about their familly and relatives missing and went on a mutiny campaingn back to the front if their familly and relatives continued to be persecuted.
      Antonescu backed down for the sake of discipline in the Roumain Army in USSR.

    You forgot to mention a couple of things about the Russians taking Moldova in that pact: It also happened that the Hungarians who were allies of Germany at that time took half of Transylvania in a occupation military move supported by the Germans and the bulgarians took over another small territory that was theirs before WW1. Romania was literally getting hacked to pieces among the Fascists and the Communists and there was no support from the Western powers at all.
    When you say that Romania was promised more land, what actually happened was that they wanted Transylvania back from the Hungarians but the Germans promised Hungary that it could keep Transylvania because it was the largest piece of territory that they lost after WW1 and they still held a grudge over.
    If you want to know what most people were thinking over those times it is the century old diplomacy of Romanians that has allowed them to survive despite being a border between 3 EMPIRES: make peace with 2, and sabotage 1. Preferably the most dangerous one.
    In this case, everyone knew that Russia was the most dangerous. So they made piece with the germans and secretly hoped that the allies would break them down and the status quo could continue.
    Sadly that did not happen and the most extremist of the the leaders of the military started to compete with Hungarians hoping that the Germans would appreciate their support and give them back Transylvania instead of the Hungarians.
    It had terrible results because passing into Russian territory gave them the right to sack and pillage the country of everything valuable that it had left during and after the war.

Many empires committed many atrocities, but in 19th century were more or less tolerant toward Jews. History of Romania only focused on faith of Jews is not right. Moreover, Romanian Jews survived holocaust in quite high percentage. Please complete the video with Romanian point of view and objective facts.

    knowing how kind, friendly and inteligent Romanian people (and Hungarian) are, it's hard to believe that it happened but it did happened. One thing that I find interesting in the war on the eastern front, is that while the Nazis were destroying and razing everything in their path, in the Ukrainian territories under romanian protectorate, the Romanians (thinking that they're going to win the war) were building and renovating cities, feeding the population, maintaining civility, law and order and making sure that is plenty of entertainment. Most of the Germans officers on the eastern front were taking their vacations in the territories occupied by Romanians. In Odessa, the cinemas were open every day, every weekend there was theater, ballet and opera just like in a normal romanian city during peace time, while at the same time, they were killing hundreds of thousands of Jews. Crazy

You can't compare the violence of class warfare to exterminations that were based on immutable traits of people. This is like comparing Robespierre's Reign of Terror to the atrocities of the Congo Free State or the Mongol invasions of Europe. It's nonsense. You're shedding crocodile tears. Yes, the communists butchered people, but they didn't target absolute innocents, as the Church might have you believe. Also, if you want people to not give too much attention to what is being described in this video, then why do you want people to give a lot of attention to something else?

    There are some minor points that might be corrected in the video. 1. Hungary was not a member of the invading countries in 1941 June 22nd. They were Slovakia, Romania an of course, Germany. I do not know when Italy joined, but Hungary joined only later because of a disputed raid against the city of Kassa (now Kosice) that was alleged to have been committed by Soviet airplanes. 2. Another reason of Romania joining the axis and taking part in the invasion of the Soviet Union right fro the start was the fact that they wanted territories back which were conceded to Hungary in 1940 in the second Vienna act. Nota bene: Romania in 1878 was not the same than in 1920.
    A great source is Matthias Carp: Holocaust in Romania. Only few copies have survived since Romanian agents simply stole every copy from public libraries in the USA and Western Europe.

They were asked if they would change their deeds if they were to go back in time. They said they would have killed more and worked harder to hide the proof. But their feelings towards Jews being more hatred to them almost 50 years after that they were still, and would remain proud of the killings.

Also, the Romanian Principalities were never under full Ottoman control. They were kept in a state of vassalage, with the obligation of paying a tribute, but they were not in the same position as Bulgaria.

Antonescu make an alliance and than a party with Iron Gurad (Horia Sima) to make a majority in parliament . The brake between Antonescu and the Iron Guard took place because Antonescu agreed with Hitler to cut Transilvania in half and give half to Hungary.

    Russia never took Moldavia, they took Basarabia and half of Bucovina (northern part)
    But I understand this confusion . Basarabia after communist block felled, they claimed independence. They chose the name of Moldova in hope they will unite with Romania later on (actually both sides are working on to accomplish this (chances are low because its a large Russian ethnic population leaving in Moldova now - check Stalin's plan to take natives and move them to Siberia and replace them with Russians)

Seen from the views of many different peoples over 1000 of years spanning history and not only seen from one single viewpoint the likleyhood of getting an accurate description of actual events increases significantly and that gives us a better educated and richer experience of understanding about how this horrific behaviour keeps repeating itself through different historical times, different people, different cultures and different lands.

During a period of more than 500 years Roma were held as slaves by the state, by noblemen, and by the Orthodox church."

      The fact that you say that romanians had plenty of rights in the kingdom of hungary clearly shows that there is no point in even talking with you. Look at Transylvania in 1366, when through the Decree of Turda King Louis I Anjou of Hungary redefined nobility in terms of membership in the Roman Catholic Church and, thus specifically excluded the Eastern Orthodox Romanians. As a result, gradually, after 1366, Romanians lost their status as an estate and were excluded from Transylvania's assemblies. This meant that the Romanian population of Transylvania was never directly represented in the Transylvanian Diet, which consisted of Hungarian nobles, German and Székely nobles (the Unio Trium Nationum). Why do you think so many romanian revolts in the kingdom of hungary were held......
      Also, I am sure hungary treated the roma people poorly aswell,

      Blown out of proportion (that's likely only if all the different sources I searched agreed to tell the same lie) or not, civilians or not, the point is that it was a atrocity and you always had a hard time denouncing it and come in terms with this episode of your past. And for all it's worth, it's also valid for poles if what you say it's true. So if that's the case and they're sweeping it under the carpet, than yeah, equally shame on them.

    This insane anti-semitism that existed in Romania during WW2 is the thing that I'm ashamed of the most from Romania's history. 😢
    But I have a good news story. My grandpa fought in WW2 for Romania and because he got injured he got transferred to the mess halls. There, he was part of a group of likeminded Romanians that were smuggling Jewish people out of the country.
    For that, I am proud of him. 🙂
    Also, few remarks re the video:
    1. Iassy/Iasi is in the geographical region of Moldova, whilst the country of Moldova is in the geographical region of Bessarabia.
    2. Romania didn't really have a choice in WW2. It joined the Axis to safeguard what was left of it's territory and protect its independence. Not denying the atrocities Antonescu committed. Just stating the geopolitical fact of the time.
    3. The Holocaust is well known and except a small number of highly indoctrinated fascists who deny it (aren't those everywhere?) Romanians don't deny it and it's been taught in schools way before 2003 as mentioned in the video. I went to school in the late 80s/early 90s and we studied it. Romania's role was downplayed and cosmeticized, especially to make the Communist leaders look like saviors but it was mentioned.
    4. Romania betrayed the Nazis and stopped feeding them oil and gas which contributed to the early downfall of the Third Reich. This hardly gets mentioned.
    Overall, the rulers of the time were, as the video suggested, a product of the time. This, coupled with Antonescu's personal hatred, made it worse for the Jewsih people.

    Some inaccuracies:
    - the present-day name of the state is not simply ”Moldova” but ”Republic of Moldova”. Check the country's Constitution. The Moldovans in the Republic knew very well they are just a splinter of real Moldova (which still is in Romania). Most Moldovans live in Romania (and we always were and are ethnic Romanians). Iași (Iassy) was and is the historical capital of Moldova;
    - the Soviet occupation of Bessarabia (future Republic of Moldova) and Nothern Bucovina occurred in June 1940, not in 1939. True - it was August 1939 when Hitler and Stalin agreed on dividing these lands (the secret annex to the Ribbentrop-Molotov pact). However, Stalin awaited the fall of the last strong ally of Romania before his aggression. He sent an ultimatum to Romania one week after France fell to Hitler's Wehrmacht.
    - the empires held a lid on ethnic violence - true, but also generated a lot of ethnic hatred, because they forcibly colonized different ethnicity populations among aboriginal populations;
    - the Iron Guard was of Horia Sima in 1940 ... because its creator, Corneliu Zelea Codreanu (a Moldovan, by the way) was extra-judicially assassinated by King Carol II previously;
    - Antonescu was more a military dictator, not necessarily a 100% fascist one. Some considerable fascist traits do match his style (antisemitism included!); however the real fascist of Romania were the Iron Guard and were marginal in the elections; they only reached power because the Ribbentrop-Molotov aftermath: aggression from both East and West against Romania gave room for a new government - but no traditional party wanted to govern the disaster caused by others; that is why Antonescu plus the Iron Guard initially reached to power.
    - Antonescu treated differently the Sephardi Jews (which settled in the country way back and were more integrated), compared to the Ashkenazi Jews. Many of the latter were recently migrated in Moldova region in Romania from Poland and/or Russia and were seen as having bolshevik sympathies (despite Red Army doing pogroms as well, during the 1917-1922 civil war).
    But even with such inaccuracies the facts remain facts: abominable and condemn-able.

      In Romania the official term for them is rrom, but about 50% of them call themselves gypsy, you don't have to ask those who prefer it, they will refer to themselves as gypsy and nothing else. You will never hear romanian politicians or reprezentatives call them any other than rrom, not gypsy, nor romani, it's simply not the correct term and it's too close to romanian and romanians and romans have never been asked about that, we always have to clarify ourselves otherwise.
