YOM HA'SHOAH - HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL DAY 2014

BEGINS IN THE EVENING OF SUNDAY, APRIL 27 AND ENDS IN THE EVENING OF MONDAY, APRIL 28. Shoah, which means catastrophe or utter destruction in Hebrew, refers to the atrocities that were committed against the Jewish people during World War II. This is a memorial day for those who died in the Shoah. The Shoah also known as the Holocaust, from a Greek word meaning "sacrifice by fire".

The full name of the day commemorating the victims of the Holocaust is "Yom Hashoah Ve-Hagevurah"— in Hebrew literally translated as the "Day of (remembrance of) the Holocaust and the Heroism." It is marked on the 27th day in the month of Nisan — a week after the end of the Passover holiday and a week before Yom Hazikaron (Memorial Day for Israel's fallen soldiers). It marks the anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising.

There will be those who post here that will deny the holocaust never happened, they are infected with a sick twisted psychotic hatred of Judaism. Global Anti-Semitism Once Again Has Reached Pandemic Levels. The Rising Tide of Islamic Fascism Is Sweeping the World in a Fire Storm of Death & Destruction. The Conflicts of Israel Is Nothing More Than A Sick Twisted Psychotic Hatred Of Judaism, It's Not Terrorism, Its Genocidal Acts. Where Islamic Fascism Has Wiped Out Ancient Jewish Communities, It Is Now Butchering Hundreds Of Thousands Of Christians.

Once Again The International Community Is Coldly Impercipient
