Holocaust Martyrs and Heroes Remembrance Day


(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Ariel Sharon - This year, Remembrance Day marks the 60th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. The Jewish people arose from the abyss of the Holocaust severely wounded, but still breathing and wiser. Never again will Jews be unprotected and homeless. Never again will we place our security in the hands of strangers, nor rely on the kindness of others. We will not be led astray by illusions, nor underestimate those who wish us harm. We shall be strong, determined, and steadfast in defending ourselves, and will cut off any hand raised against Jews anywhere. We seek peace with all our hearts, but we have learned this lesson: it is not in weakness, nor with faint heart, that we will achieve security and peace, rather with boldness, courage, and a willingness to guard that which is most precious and vital to our future.
