Anti-Semitism rises after 83 years: the free world must not let it raise its head
Anti-Semitism has not disappeared from the world, hatred of the Jews remains intact even today, it is disguised and characterized, among other things, by hatred and incitement against the State of Israel and opposition to its existence.
Today it is said: "Never again"!

On January 27, 1939, about 16.6 million Jews lived in the world. Today, 83 years later, the number of Jews in the world stands at less than 15 million. The reason there are fewer Jews today than 83 years ago is due to hatred of Jews and anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitism that led to a civilizational disaster in the 20th century with the destruction of about a third of the Jewish people.
Antisemitism, as defined by the International Task Force to Commemorate the Holocaust (IHRA), is: “a particular conception of Jews, which can be expressed as hatred towards Jews. "These are verbal and physical expressions of anti-Semitism directed at individuals, Jews or non-Jews, and / or against their property, against Jewish community institutions and religious sites.
" The systematic and industrialization of nearly six million Jews during the 20th century by the Nazis and their aides turned this planet into "another planet."A world with fewer Jews is a less good world.

We all need to understand, extermination is not only the killing of those who were robbed of life in the extermination camps, but also the punishment of "cutting off" their sons and grandsons, to the end of all generations.
Look at the contribution of the Jews to humanity in the last 4,000 years.
And understand the magnitude of the loss and the price to all mankind throughout all generations.
Think of some Nobel laureates, scientists, doctors, leaders, painters, playwrights, engineers and even just tens of thousands of "good people in the middle of the road" whose entire world has not benefited from their contribution due to the barbaric act of trying to exterminate the Jewish people.
The world would have looked different with them.

Therefore, it is appropriate and correct to mark Holocaust Remembrance Day as an international commemoration.
It is a day of mourning and pain for the whole world, for the six million, and for the loss of the contribution of generations upon generations of the Jewish people, members of an ancient people whose destiny, vision and aspiration on this planet is to serve as an 'exemplary people' and 'light to the Gentiles'.
Anti-Semitism has not disappeared from the world, hatred of the Jews remains intact even today, it is disguised and characterized, among other things, by hatred and incitement against the State of Israel and opposition to its existence.
The free world must not let her raise her head again.
Today, the whole world, and we are here from Jerusalem, the capital of the Jewish people, say to anti-Semitism and anti-Semites "never again"!
