Disputed Jedwabne monument removed, but replacement still uncertain

The controversial monument commemorating the massacre of 1600 Jews in Jedwabne with an inscription blaming the Germans has been removed. It will be replaced with a new 'accurate' monument, but it is still not known what inscription it will bear, since a decision will not be made until the end of April. According to the authorities of Jedwabne the place where the shed once stood in which the Jews were immolated will be turned into a war cemetery. According to Andrzej Przewoznik, head of the Martyrdom and Struggle Memory Council, the design has already been prepared. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p.1) J.K.
