| Holocaust Memorial Day |
It is the Holocaust Memorial Day today in Israel. It started yesterday’s evening with the traditional official ceremony in Yad Vashem, Jerusalem, and continues today, when a siren was herd at 10:00am through out the country and each place had a local ceremony. We had one in the Givat Ram Campus (the Nature Sciences Faculty of the Hebrew university). This year’s Holocaust day is even more important then past years as anti-semism rises again in Europe, being the worst wave ever since WWII. The internet also serves as a stage to Anti-jewish hate propoganda, like this Sharon as Hitler picture.
BTW, I can’t really understand how arabs can be “Anti-Semics”, since they are semic as well! If they were present in Nazi germany they would have been gassed/burned/shot as well, just like the Gypsies and other “non-Arie races”. They can be anti-israeli, but not anti-semic… And I’m still bothered that Europe has anti-semism buried so deep it still exists today. Germans, due to the painful history they have, are making efforts to silence these “weeds”. France, on the other hand, doesn’t even bother hiding it’s hate. Go figure.

A note to the 2 persons that left nasty comments here:
This entry is exactly what it is. A post about our holocaust memorial day. The fact that this entry page comes up in google whenever you look for “Holocaust Pictures” is just that - a search result.
This page is not intended to be a resource for Holocaust pictures. Sorry if it doesn’t help.
And by the way, I can see the IP of every comment, so no use posting several comments and signing up as different people - It’s looks pretty obvious on the admin panel.
