Until now, I was on the silent side of the group (about the subject of the
museum). The reason was that as a Cernowitzer that was in Transnistria my be
that my feelings about the whole thing is different from feelings of others
who were "only" in the ghetto. Reading Cornell's mail I decided that my be
he is right. Perhaps we should "go with it", and time will correct the
misdoings.

Hi. I vote for full cooperation, and there is a parallel to this story.
Asyou can see from my photos a lot of my family were Austrian military.
So,wheneveri am in Vienna I head for their army museum which has a
fascinating collection of items including some marvellous paintings.
But,for yrs no ww2 section, probably out of shame/guilt due Austrian Nazis.
I and many others kept on nagging...and lo and behold. There is now a no
holds barred hall covering ww2, Austrian Nazis included. Knowing the part
some Ukrainians played I can understand his desire to go slow at first. I
also think that gradually he probably will be able to take over more of that
building to use as exhibition space. I also must say that I very much
disagree with hardy that the holocaust is more important than anything
else...the 100s of yrs of jewish life before are equally important.
Regards to all, cornel
