El Al Pilot Delivers Anarchist’s Rant to Passengers on Flight to New York

 

Once again, anarchist continue to cross red lines. 

Passengers on El Al flight 007 to New York received an unexpected political message from their pilot, Doron Ginzburg, on Yom Hashoah, Israel’s Holocaust Remembrance Day.

Using English worse than Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich’s, the pilot delivered his anarchist-fueled rant to the passengers over the loudspeaker, declaring,

 “Reminding all of us that things like [the] Holocaust are potentially to be occurring in a dictatorship, and we are fighting in Israel to remain a democratic country. Thank you all and have a nice flight.”

Moving: Holocaust survivor surprises his granddaughter on Mount Herzl

 

Yaakov Meir Dimenstein, a Holocaust survivor who lives in Switzerland, came to Israel specifically to watch his granddaughter, Rina, who serves in the Home Front Command and who will be a flag bearer in the traditional torch lighting ceremony that will take place next week on Independence Day.

On Monday, on the eve of Holocaust Remembrance Day, Rina's family, together with grandfather Yaakov, surprised her by arriving at the rehearsals for the ceremony, which were held on Mount Herzl. At the end of the rehearsals, Yaakov joined the flag bearers in the singing of Israel’s national anthem, “Hatikvah”.

Yaakov, who was born in Belgium and fled the Nazi regime to a refugee camp in South Africa, said, "I cannot explain in words the meaning of the visit to the rehearsals for the torch lighting ceremony, in which my granddaughter will take part. Only about 78 years ago, the Jewish people were persecuted and their status was at the lowest point in history. Today, the State of Israel is a beacon and a source of great Jewish pride and proves that history will not repeat itself thanks to the power of the IDF."

His granddaughter, Rina, said, “As the granddaughter of a Holocaust survivor, I am proud and happy to wear the IDF uniform - thus fulfilling the dreams of our forefathers. I strive to contribute to the country as much as I can, and being an IDF officer is one step in commemorating all those who are no longer with us. We must cherish and give gratitude every day for the right to live in the land of Israel."

Iranian Crown Prince: It's my duty to honor Holocaust victims

 

Iranian Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi, who is visiting Israel, on Monday evening attended the official state ceremony marking the start of Holocaust Remembrance Day at Jerusalem’s Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial Museum.

Speaking to i24NEWS after the ceremony, the Crown Prince said that the Iranian regime “doesn’t represent the Iranian people” and as Tehran doesn’t acknowledge the Holocaust, he felt it was his duty to show his support for Israel on behalf of his nation that has 2,500-years-long relations with the Jewish people.

"It's a Biblical relationship that our two countries have had over centuries and today when we have the regime that denies the Holocaust has ever occurred it's my duty to be here representing my fellow compatriots, to honor the victims of the Holocaust and pay my respects to this nation and its people," he said.

Intelligence Minister Gila Gamliel earlier on Monday welcomed Pahlavi upon his arrival at Ben Gurion Airport.

"I congratulate the Iranian Crown Prince on his important visit to Israel as the most senior Iranian personality to ever visit here. We appreciate the Crown Prince's expression of solidarity with the citizens of Israel in the face of the severe terrorist attacks perpetrated by Iran, as well as his visit to Yad Vashem on the occasion of Holocaust Remembrance Day in order to sympathize with the Jewish people, in contrast to Iran's rulers who deny the Holocaust and encourage antisemitism. Together, through a common vision, we will take the first step in building bridges and collaborations between the two peoples," said Gamliel.

Gamliel will host Pahlavi during his visit to Israel, with the aim of creating a bridge between Israel and the Iranian people, and expressing joint opposition to the Ayatollah regime. The heir to the throne promotes discourse on the human rights situation in Iran and supports a democratic Iranian leadership.

Ahead of Holocaust Remembrance Day: Nearly Half the World’s Jews Live in Israel

 

At the start of 2022, there were a total of 15.3 million Jews in the world, 7 million of whom, roughly 46% of all Jews worldwide, resided in Israel, Israel’s Central Bureau of Statistics revealed on Sunday.

In 1939, on the eve of World War II, Jews numbered 16.6 million, and 449,000 (3%) resided in the Land of Israel. Just under 10 years later, in 1948, the world’s Jewish population had diminished to 11.5 million; of them, 650,000 (6%) lived in Israel.

Among Diaspora Jews, about 6 million live in the United States, 442,000 in France, 392,000 in Canada, 292,000 in Britain, 173,000 in Argentina, 145,000 in Russia, 118,000 in Germany and another 118,000 in Australia, according to the report.

Ahead of Holocaust Remembrance Day, which begins on the evening of April 17, the CBS also revealed that 147,199 Holocaust survivors or victims of antisemitic actions during the Holocaust are currently living in Israel.

Of those survivors, 61% are women and 39% are men.

A small number, 4.5%, immigrated to Israel before the establishment of the state, between 1933 to 1947; 31.7% immigrated during the large aliyah wave following the state’s establishment (1948 to 1951); 29.7% immigrated between 1952 and 1989 and 34.1% came since the 1990s, during the wave of aliyah from the former Soviet Union.

In a 2021 survey, 87% of Israel’s survivors said they were either “satisfied” or “very satisfied” with their lives, similar to the 88% of Jews and others above the age of 75. However, 17.3% of Holocaust survivors said they felt lonely often, compared to 12.6% of Jews and others 75 and older.

Lipa Schmeltzer Leaves Mourners of Michael Schnitzler Spellbound in Yiddish Eulogy

 I was very impressed, yes impressed when he repeated twice that this was a great loss to  Schnitzler's z"l Instagram followers !

The late Michael Schnitzler made it his business to comfort and support those who needed special love, chizuk and sympathy. Though he himself had many personal issues, he never let on that he had his own demons but reached out to those who needed reaching out. 

Thank you, Lipa for saying what needed to be said and not letting the big rabbis at the funeral intimidate you ! Kol Hakovod! 

May Michoel rest in peace and may he sing in heaven to open the gates of rachamim for the entire Jewish community.!

Israel set to observe Holocaust Remembrance Day; nearly 150,000 survivors live in the Jewish state

 

The number of Holocaust survivors living in Israel stands at nearly 150,000, according to statistics published on Sunday by the Holocaust Survivors’ Rights Authority ahead of Holocaust Remembrance Day.

Israel is set to mark Holocaust Remembrance Day beginning on Monday evening.

The official state opening ceremony will take place at 8 p.m. in Warsaw Ghetto Square at the Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum, on the Mount of Remembrance in Jerusalem.

The 147,199 Holocaust survivors residing in the Jewish state include 521 new immigrants from war-torn Ukraine who last year were recognized as survivors of the Nazi genocide.

Holocaust Remembrance Day, an annual event in Israel commemorating the six million Jews murdered by the Germans and their collaborators, and those who fought back and partook in rescue efforts, takes place this year from Monday evening until the following evening. The somber day features a two-minute siren at 10 a.m. local time when the country comes to a standstill.

One of the central themes of this year’s commemoration is Jewish resistance during the Holocaust, as the world marks 80 years since the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.

According to the data, 462 Holocaust survivors celebrated their 100th birthdays last year. Around 31,000 are more than 90 years old. The average age of survivors is 85 and the youngest survivor is 76.

Haifa is home to the largest population of Shoah survivors in Israel, followed by Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.

Sixty-three percent of Holocaust survivors in Israel were born in Europe. Significant numbers of Holocaust survivors came from outside of Europe, including Morocco, Algeria, Libya, Tunisia and Iraq.
