Holocaust survivor Ester Gelbelman describes the killing site Bogdanovka in Romania. The video is an excerpt from the film "The Deportation of the Jews to Transnistria (Romania)" from the Holocaust History Museum in Yad Vashem.

Bogdankova is in Transnistria , that is not in Romania ! Not even in Moldova ( Ex-Romanian State ) but next to Ukraine . Ok ? Get your facts right before blaming Romaninan people . A crazy marshall drove my people into WW2 and after that he was sentenced to death as a war criminal . Romanians are most definitely NOT evil ! See things in perspective almost every human being of any nationality will fall under pressure so dont go judging people around . Achieve higher self knowledge ! Peace

I will always remember the victims and Ester is truly a wonderful human being. I only wish I could avenge the victims and let Ester know that some of us care and will always remember what she went through.

Romanians always said that they werent part of these things that the Germans forced them to do it or organized it. I think this prretty much disproves that lie. Barabarians! Burning pits of people who may not have died immediately! SInful!
