Uncovers the truth about the Slaughterhouse Massacre, highlighting political manipulation of historical facts.
This study aims to elucidate the facts related to an episode that is claimed to have occurred during the so-called ‘Legionary Rebellion’ from January 21–23, 1941, practically a sui generis coup d’état executed by Gen. Ion Antonescu with the support of the Nazis, who ensured Romania’s ‘independence,’ reduced to being a German pro-tectorate. It is about the well-known episode of Jews hung on hooks in the Abattoir, a story that, through the emotional effect induced, had devastating effects on the Le-gionaries. It has been demonstrated with irrefutable arguments and documents that: * there was no such event.* the Legionaries did not kill any Jews.* all the victims were killed by soldiers of the Romanian army.* all those so-called pieces of evidence, invoked by the so-called Final Report (on the Holocaust in Romania) – absolutely all of them point to a newspaper article, a sensational journalistic story, like any other, meant to incriminate the Legionaries.* there is no physical evidence – forensic report, medico-legal report, authenticated photograph, etc. – to support the claims made in that article.* all the accusations against the Legionaries are based exclusively on a rumor launched at that time by the SSI, through the specialized teams within the institution.* all these accusations against the Legionaries, along with the entire ideological and legal framework built against them, constitute a classic example of historical mani-pulation for political purposes.
