Bulgaria was complicit in the dispossession, torture and murder of thousands of Jews--yet, the Bulgarian government continues to whitewash this fact. While it is known that the Bulgarian government elected not to deport some 50,000 Jews from 'Old' Bulgaria to German death camps in Poland--what is not known is that Bulgaria was directly complicit in the murder of some 13,000 Jews from 'New' Bulgaria (Thrace and Macedonia).

Tediously researched and assembled by Shelomo Alfassa from a multitude of sources, Shameful Behavior: Bulgaria and the Holocaust demonstrates what Bulgaria doesn't like to discuss--how they were responsible for the deaths of Jews during World War II.

This book has been praised by the Holocaust Fund of the Jews from Macedonian - the official body
representing Bulgarian Holocaust survivors in Israel. Their letter is inside the book.
