“Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, which has turned my life into one long night, seven times cursed and seven times sealed....Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust. Never shall I forget these things, even if I am condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never.”- Elie WieselNever shall we forget heroes who were murdered on the most brutal ways by Nazi units.Never shall we stop talking about it.Never shall we stop pointing out that unfortunately, even today there is Anti-Semitic propaganda against Jews.Never shall we forget those who died just because they were Jewish.Never shall we forget Non-Jews who died because they said: “No” to Nazi regime.Never shall we forget those who were silent while watching horrific crimes and doing nothing.Never shall we forget those who risked their own lives to rescue Jews.Never shall we forget all innocent victims who died just because Nazi regime condemned anyone who supported justice.
Never shall we forget the attempt of Nazi propaganda to destroy the truth.Never shall we forget the moment when human beings became numbers.Never shall we forget the moment that human beings were condemned to death just because of faith.Never shall we forget Yellow Star “Jude”.Never shall we forget words by Anne Frank: “What is done cannot be undone, but one can prevent it happening again.”Never shall we forget the moment of history when human values were buried and hatred took power over the truth.Taking all this in consideration, never shall we forget that Israel is home to Jewish people, safe homeland where they will never be condemned for being Jewish.Never shall we forget fallen heroes, IDF soldiers, who defended their homeland until last breath because they knew that they shall never forgot why they wore uniform of their country.Never shall we forget that Israel is here to stay and prevail“For the dead and the living, we must bear witness.”― Elie Wiesel
