POSTOVANI PRIJATELJI,
I ove godine u Njujorku se odrzava
Komemoracija zrtvama - Srbima, Jevrejima,
i Romima - mucki ubijenim u zloglasnom
fasistickom logoru u Jasenovcu za vreme NDH.
Proslo je vec 70 godina od kada su se logorasi,
njih nesto vise od hiljadu, probili kroz
obezbedjenje logora i sami se oslobodili.
Ove godine obelezavajuci taj dan zelimo da
ponovimo poruku da se takvi i slicni
dogadjaji nesmeju ponoviti.
Dan oslobadjanja logorasa iz Jasenovca
proglasen je u Njujorku Danom secanja na
700 hiljada zrtva ove fabrike smrti.
Na ovogodisnjoj Komemoraciji i na
14 Godisnjoj konferenciji Jasenovac Research
Institute bice prisutnno nekoliko prezivelih
logorasa, Istoricari koji se bave ovim pitanjima
u Izraelu, Srbiji i u drugim zemljama kao i
znacajni geopoliticki i bezbednosni strucnjaci
koji ce govoriti o zlocinima ali i o ponovnom
pojavljivanju nacizma i opasnostima koje to
donosi.
Bilo bi lepo da se i Vi pridruzite
Komemorativnim svecanostima i Godisnjoj
konferenciji JRI.
Prilozen je poziv i program Godisnje
Konferencije koju su, ove godine pomogli
i nasi ljudi, vlasnici kompanija u Njujorku.
Vas doprinos bice Vase prisustvo i donacija
koja zajedno sa vecerom iznosi samo $60.
Njujork je jedini mesto izvan bivse Jugoslavije,
gde se daje pomen zrtvama i pale svece u pomen
stradalih Srba, Javreja i Roma...
Dodjite da odamo pocast ubijenima i kazemo
da se zlocini nesmu ponoviti...
S postovanjem.
