Political Quotes

“This past Sunday, the world joined together in honoring the memory of those who were murdered during the Holocaust. In 2005, the United Nations designated January 27 as International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The systematic, government-sponsored persecution and murder of 6 million Jews by the Nazi regime and its collaborators will always be a scar on humanity. We promise to always remember those who lost their lives, those who survived, and those who saved them, those who stood in the face of such evil and refused to turn a blind eye. We make this promise to ensure such blight on humanity will never happen again. By remembering the events of the Holocaust, we can understand how important it is to defend those who are defenseless. We must eradicate hatred and never become indifferent to the suffering of others. Mr. Speaker, on the international day of remembrance, the most important thing to reflect upon is the humanity that exists in all of us. ____________________”
