Remembering the Holocaust
I can’t write a post today without mentioning Holocaust day… and after yesterday’s disgusting display by Ahmadinejad (or Ahmahitlerjad as I’ve become accustomed to calling him) at the UN's World Conference Against Racism… now that’s a joke!!! the UN + Ahmahitlerjad against racism??? Allowing a very public racist and human rights violator to talk at such a conference just shows how legitimate the UN is as an organization… I’m sure if Hitler was alive today he would have been invited to speak too!!! disgusting!!! he has a right to dislike Israel if that is what he wishes to do, but what he does not have a right to do is to call for its destruction and re-write history by denying the Holocaust ever happened and that 6,000,000 Jews (over 1,000,000 of them children!!!!) were murdered by the Nazis!!!! It was good to see a few dozen people stand up and leave the conference in the middle of the speech, of course am not sure why they were there in the first place… but to see those that stayed… and to see their approval and praise for the speech of this so-called man and all the hatred he has for so many (not just Jews and Israel)… now that offends my sensibilities… as a Jew, as an Israeli, as a woman but most of all a human being!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please remember and please make sure you teach your children the true version of history not Ahmahitlerjad’s distorted version fabricated to advance his own agenda. The Holocaust did happen – thanks to the Nazi's meticulous record-keeping we have proof that it happened (if you are not willing to believe the account of the survivors)… by denying it you are allowing history to repeat itself and next time you may find yourself in the group of people being demonized. Don’t let this madman win!!!!

ReplyDeleteThankfully the US did not attend. My grandchildren are 12 and 14 and I have been sure that they have seen The Diary of Anne Frank and Shindler's List, two powerful accounts that help our children understand what Hitler was. I cannot believe that today there are so many that don't believe these atrocities happened. Some will never believe.
I'm embarrassed, as an American Jew, that he even got into the building. There was some talk about this in the US, but not enough!
