News for 2023 Holocaust Memorial Day
“Never again” means that Israel must ensure that Iran not be allowed to produce nuclear weapons, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at the Holocaust Remembrance Day ceremony in Yad Vashem on Monday evening.Next, here's a very atrocious report of how Likud MK Boaz Bizmuth was heckled at a memorial in a Tel Aviv synagogue by anti-judicial reform creeps:
Israel’s enemies such as Iran should not err in thinking that internal division has weakened the country to such an extent that they can annihilate the Jewish people, he emphasized,
“The Jewish people live,” Netanyahu exclaimed.
“New oppressors, may think that we do not have the determination and internal cohesion to stand up to them. They are very wrong. We will defend ourselves, and together we will repel any threat to our existence,” Netanyahu stated.
“Our enemies will find us standing together, shoulder-to-shoulder,” Netanyahu said.
He spoke as domestic turmoil over his judicial overhaul plan has caused regional enemies such as Iran and its proxy group Hezbollah to speculate that Israel could after 75 years collapse from within.
The collapse of the Third Reich did not end the calls for Israel’s destruction, except that today that threat comes from Tehran’s “regime of terror,” Netanyahu said.
The lessons of the Holocaust that evil must be halted in its tracks must be applied here to prevent a nuclear Iran, Netanyahu said.
“The victory of the past does not alone guarantee the victory of the future. That is why we firmly fight any nuclear agreement with Iran, which would pave its way to nuclear weapons,” Netanyahu said.
“For the same reason, we fight aggressively against Iran's terrorist branches around us. Those who seek to wrap us in a stranglehold of terror will encounter an overwhelming response,” he added.
Likud MK Boaz Bismuth broke off his speech and left a Holocaust Remembrance Day ceremony in a Tel Aviv synagogue on Monday evening after protests broke out against him, according to Hebrew media.What those vulgarians did has set a severely poor example which will end badly. Here's some more about this atrocity:
As Bismuth began to speak, several of those in attendance began to shout "shame!" and "he [Bismuth] shouldn't be here" in his direction.
Other participants in the ceremony began arguing with them, almost leading to physical confrontations between the two sides.
Demonstrators against the government’s proposed judicial reform on Monday evening interrupted a speech by MK Boaz Bismuth (Likud) at a memorial service for the victims of the Holocaust which took place in a synagogue in Tel Aviv.It can all be laid at the feet of the hoodlums who caused the ruckus in the first place. They have to be reeducated, no matter their age. This has become truly awful.
Footage from the event shows a number of protesters calling out “shame” at Bismuth. Some of those present stood up and called on the protesters to stop.
The protesters interrupted the beginning of Bismuth's speech and fearing violence, he had to leave the scene before he concluded his speech.
"I will not treat those who came here against me as enemies. We are brothers. We may not agree but we will not do to each other what has been done to us for many generations. It is legitimate that everyone has a different desire for Israel - but our fate is the same, certainly on an evening like this," said Bismuth.
"There were those who wanted Bismuth to stay and those who demanded that he leave and not finish his remarks," said Bismuth. "Some of those present went outside and some clashed inside the synagogue. It was really terrible. It just clouded this important day. Every year a different politician comes to speak, last year it was Ofir Akunis came and there were no such reactions. Israel is simply not the same as it was on the last Holocaust Remembrance Day. We can't put aside the differences even on a day like this."
Now, here's news of the son of the late Shah of Iran paying a visit to Israel for Holocaust Memorial Day:
Iranian Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi, who is visiting Israel, on Monday evening attended the official state ceremony marking the start of Holocaust Remembrance Day at Jerusalem’s Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial Museum.He also visited the Western Wall. Pahlavi did the right thing. There's only so much going wrong in Iran today, and that too has to be solved.
Speaking to i24NEWS after the ceremony, the Crown Prince said that the Iranian regime “doesn’t represent the Iranian people” and as Tehran doesn’t acknowledge the Holocaust, he felt it was his duty to show his support for Israel on behalf of his nation that has 2,500-years-long relations with the Jewish people.
"It's a Biblical relationship that our two countries have had over centuries and today when we have the regime that denies the Holocaust has ever occurred it's my duty to be here representing my fellow compatriots, to honor the victims of the Holocaust and pay my respects to this nation and its people," he said.
