Yom HaZikaron laShoah ve-laGvura - Holocaust Remembrance Day
Tomorrow is Yom HaZikaron laShoah ve-laGvura, Holocaust Remembrance Day. In Israel, the remembrance begins tonight, at sundown, though I would think that in Israel Yom HaZikaron laShoah ve-laGvura is not simply remembered on this designated day.
Photos to remember this evil, if you actually need them.
Via Daniel Jackson, at Sense of Events, who recalls accidently learning of the Shoah for the first time in 1961, with his younger brother, and ends his post with these words.
May God send peace to all who mourn and give us strength to not stand idly by.
So be it.
