 (JPost) Israel PM Benjamin Netanyahu, speaking at Yad Vashem commemorating the Holocaust said, “The day of victory over the Nazi’s was not only a day of relief and joy, it was a day mixed with terrible sorrow for our people and it was a day of soul-searching for leaders of all people.”

Netanyahu used the opportunity to remind those watching of the role of Democracies in stopping tyrannical regimes:

“Appeasing tyrannical regimes will only increase their aggression and is an approach that is liable to drag the world into larger wars…

Many in the world declare that the lessons learned are also valid today. They declare ‘Never Again’ but as long as these words are not heeded in practice they are meaningless…Just as the Nazi’s hoped to crush a civilization, so Iran strives to take over the region and from there spread onwards with the stated intention of destroying the Jewish state…While the civilized world sinks into a coma on a bed of illusions, Iran’s leaders encourage subversion and terrorism, they spread destruction and death. The world powers shut their eyes to the masses in Tehran calling Death to America — Death to Israel.”
