Out of the enslaved Yugoslavia there emerged - by the will and power of its peoples - a new socialist Yugoslavia, a country of fraternity and unity of all its peoples and citizens, while the Jewish people are now building up their state of Israel. The peoples whom it tried to enslave for ever or destroy are still living and building a better future for themselves. The „Thousand year Reich" was shatterd after only twelve years of its unprecedented bloody and brutal rule against the fighting spirit of liberty loving nations and the conscience of progressive humanity. This book appears in the year 1952, ten years after the final completion of Hitler's 'plan for total extermination of Jews. And just as their heroic blood and their tortured corpses lie mingled on countless battlefields, in mass death camps and mass graves, so also does our memory of all of them - a debt of honour and piety, a debt of love and gratitude to all of them - remain in substance undivided. They all represent a glorious yet tragic community, a vast legion of heroes and martyrs for the same great cause. This book is also dedicated to the memory of nearly 2.000.000 citizens of Yugoslavia, to the memory of 6.000.000 Jews and to the memory of millions of victims and fallen fighters of all the nations who fought for annihilation of the fascist scourge or suffered under it. The Federation of Jewish Communities of the Federative People's Republic of Yugoslavia, on behalf of the surviving remnants of Yugoslav Jews, dedicates this book to the memory of 60.000 Jews of Yugoslavia, who fell as tortured victims of fascism or lost their lives as fighters against fascism from 1941 to 1945.
