The ‘Encyclopedia of Camps and Ghettos’, set for completion in 2025, has now documented 42,500 sites of Nazi persecution — over eight times more than predicted. And the number keeps on rising. Researchers also refrained from counting sub-camps, of which there were tens of thousands.
And see:
Trump’s Holocaust day statement fails to mention Jews or anti-Semitism – Eric Cortellessa – The Times of Israel 27.01.17
ADL chief calls absence of specific Jewish reference ‘puzzling and troubling’.
Trump’s Holocaust Remembrance Day statement is a threefold disgrace – Jake Romm – The Forward 27.01.17
Netanyahu's Likud plans weekend party on Holocaust Memorial Day – Ofer Aderet – Haaretz 26.01.17
Netanyahu has accused people on the left of ‘forgetting what it means to be Jewish’. It would be interesting to know how he justifies holding a weekend of fun and entertainment, billed as ‘the Likud’s event of the year’, on the very day that Israel asked the rest of the world to honour the memories of six million Jews and other victims of the Nazis.
