NO OF PAGES: 281 SUB CAT I: Israeli Politics SUB CAT II: SUB CAT III: DESCRIPTION: A seemingly insignificant refugee from Hungary accuses an important member of David Ben-Gurion's Mapai party of collaborating with the Nazis during the murder of Hungarian Jewry. The Israeli government files suit for slander. Represented by a brilliant lawyer, the refugee turns the tables on the government as Ben-Gurion's colleague, Rudolf Kastner, is trapped in lie after lie. The judge finds that the employee of the Israeli government did indeed collaborate with the Nazis and acquits the Hungarian refugee of the charge of slander. The government appeals. Before the appeals court can act, Kastner is murdered outside his home. The government arrests three right-wing youths and charges them with murder. Many believe that the Israeli Mossad had Kastner murdered to prevent his talking about contacts between the Nazis and Jewish Labor Zionists during the Holocaust. Everyone loves a thrilling courtroom drama about murder. This one is not fiction, but a true life drama. The Israeli public was transfixed for nine months as testimony unfolded in this trenchant story of the last year of the Holocaust in which over a half-million Hungarian Jews were transported to their deaths before the eyes of the free world.NOTES: Donated by Patricia Irwin.
