Holocaust Memorial Day

Website Review by: Hila R     


This abstract was translated from ===== יום השואה =====
Yellow patch, ghetto, Auschwitz, words that put up associations to the horrible disaster. for the survivors these are much
more than just words. For them, it's an old reality but unforgettable one. They will never forget the horrors, the hunger, the diseases and the loss. During World War 2, as 11 million Jews and million and a half gypsies were executed in Europe. Over 40 million soldiers form different countries were killed. The enormity of the disaster is bigger than words can tell or black and white movies can show. Nonetheless, the importance of the awareness to matter is priceless. There is a cliché that says: "history repeats itself twice". Einstein once said: "i don't know in which way they will fight in world war 3, but at the forth they'll use sticks and stones" (free translation). So for the memory of the war's victims won't be futilely, we must chisel in our consciousness everything that happened and stand on guard. As more people will be encounter with this sort of message the harder it will be to forget. Please pass this message on or any information that regards to the subject to any possible person around the world. There are two links attached to this message. The one contains information about the holocaust and the other has information about foundations, compensations to the survivors, property that was lost during the war and more.
