Abstract:
Contains excerpts from four interviews with Kovner in 1984, on his experiences as a resistance leader in the Vilna ghetto and a partisan leader. Answers accusations made against him by Rabbi Moshe Sheinfeld of Agudath Israel, based on the testimony of Haim Lazar of the Betar movement. The accusations were that Kovner made an agreement with Judenrat head Jacob Gens that the resistance would not fight if its members would be allowed to escape during the ghetto's liquidation, and that Kovner the partisan leader prevented rescue acts and sent Jews who were not members of Hashomer Hatzair to be killed. Answers that there was no such agreement with the Judenrat; on the contrary, there was conflict between the resistance and the Judenrat. As for the second accusation, although six former ghetto policemen were executed by Soviet partisans, this was done without Kovner's knowledge. Lazar made this accusation because one of the policemen, Natan Ring, was his friend; also, Kovner sent Lazar and ca. 100 other Jewish partisans to another forest and they felt betrayed, but not one was killed.
