Today at 10am, May 2, 2011 war sirens throughout the entire country of Israel were heard. At this time, everybody stops what they are doing to stand in silence and pay a minute of respect for all of the millions of innocent people who died and suffered through the Holocaust. Here is what it looked like when I stood at the Dizengoff Square ("Kikar Dizengoff"), as I stood in silence, paying my respects and reflecting on how I will never forget those who fell. RIP
In Bibi Netanyahu's speech tonight for Holocaust Remembrance Day: "If we don't defend ourselves, the world won't stand by our side. It is appropriate to declare here, today, and now to all of our enemies that they should know one thing: When the people of Israel and the army of Israel say to the world 'never again', we mean every word."
