(Jerusalem Post) Sam Sokol - During the state ceremony marking Holocaust Remembrance Day on Sunday evening, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, "The murderous hatred against the Jews that has accompanied the history of our people has not gone away, it has simply been replaced by murderous hatred against the Jewish state. What has changed since the Holocaust is our determination and our ability to defend ourselves, by ourselves." "At no stage will we surrender our fate in the hands of others, even the best of our friends." "The deepest meaning of the State of Israel" is that Israel prevents the Jewish people from "returning to a situation where it is too late. We will not stand helpless against our enemies again."
