(Before It's News)

Today, with heavy hearts, we remember the six million Jews and the millions of other victims of Nazi brutality who were murdered during the Holocaust.

Yom HaShoah is a day to reaffirm our responsibilities to ourselves and future generations. It is incumbent upon us to make real those timeless words, “Never forget. Never again.” Yet, even as we recognize that mankind is capable of unspeakable acts of evil, we also draw strength from the survivors, the liberators, and the righteous among nations who represented humanity at its best.

With their example to guide us, together we must firmly and forcefully condemn the anti-Semitism that is still far too common today. Together we must stand against bigotry and hatred in all their forms. And together, we can leave our children a world that is more just, more free, and more secure for all humankind.

  • 6 million Jews did not die during WWII. This is fact that is supported by documented evidence (WWII Red Cross Census data, scientific data demonstrating that ‘gas chambers’ were not possible with the materials used, building leaks and no physical evidence has ever existed to support this assertion, etc), Additionally, there is documented evidence (printed news articles from around the world) showing that the ’6 million Jews died’ assertion has been used and reused prior to WWII and since. There is nothing to be remembered, honored nor sacrificed in the name of.

    If you want to remember a real genocide that’s still taking place today, have a Remembrance and Honor Day for Native Americans and all indigenous tribes.
