JERUSALEM (EJP)---More than 70 members of the Knesset, Israel’s parliament, and Holocaust survivors will gather on the site of the former Auschwitz death camp on January 27 for an historic session on combating anti-Semitism. January 27 marks the annual International Holocaust Remembrance Day and the anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi death camp by the Allied troops in 1945. The event was initiated by the management of the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum which has invited Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein and all members of the Israeli parliament to participate in a discussion and memorial ceremony.
Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein
Više od 70 članova Kneseta, Izraelskog parlamenta, će se sastati s osobama koje su preživjele Holokaust na području nekadašnjeg logora smrti Auschwitzu, na dan 27 siječnja- kako bi napravili povijesni sastanak u borbi protiv antisemitizma. 27 siječanj označava Internacionalni Dan sjećanja na Holokaust i godišnjicu oslobađanja logora od strane Savezničkih trupa. Inicijativu za ovo događanje su dali voditelji Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorijalnog centra i muzeja, koji su pozvali Yuli Edelsteina ( glasnogovornika Kneseta) i članove Izraelskog parlamenta da sudjeluju u diskusiji i ceremoniji. Učesnici će doći iz Izraela specijalnim avionom, a osim članova Kneseta i preživjelih Holokausta ( svaki član Kneseta biti će praćen preživjelim), doći će IDF generali, glavni aškenaški rabin David Lau i njegov otac prijašnji glavni rabin Meir Lau, dobitnici Nobelovih nagrada i predstavnici omladinskog pokreta.

The event organizer and the person behind the project is Jonny Daniels, Founder and Executive Director of ‘From the Depths’, a non-profit organization devoted to preserving the memory of the Holocaust and ‘connecting the Jewish past with the Jewish future’. ..
‘’At least one Holocaust survivor an hour is dying in Israel and we are getting very close to the point where there will be no more first-hand accounts left. The onus falls on us, not just as Jews and Israelis, but humanity as a while, to learn, to be with the survivors and to understand what happened and to ensure it never repeats again,” he said.
” Lawmakers and politicians from Europe and the US are expected to attend the event as well as Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Elie Wiesel.
Edelstein said anti-Semitism in Europe has reached a level unprecedented since the end of the Holocaust.” Noting the “importance and urgency” of combatting global anti-Semitism, he warns “we must not wait until the trains start going to Auschwitz-Birkenau once again.”
