And this brings me to the case of the Jewish councils [15]. They were founded under the German occupation in order to coordinate things. They passed the requests of the German and Horthyst [named after Horthy] [16] occupation troops to the Jewish population: they had to collect money, blankets, clothes and the likes. So they were in charge with everything that had to do with Jews. It was said – and it was actually acknowledged – that some leaders of these Jewish councils had heard about Auschwitz.
