#HolocaustMemorialDay THREAD:
It is eerie & immensely empowering to be in Vienna on #HMD2019, standing before this moving monument to Austrian Jews murdered in the #Holocaust.
Austria not only gave birth to Hitler, but is birthplace of modern Zionism, as envisaged by Herzl.

74 years after the end of the #Holocaust, Hitler's dream to annihilate the Jewish people has been dashed, while Herzl's dream to establish a Jewish state has been fully realized.
THAT, that is the ultimate victory of the Jewish people! #HolocaustMemorialDay #HMD2019

That not only did we survive, but that from the graveyards of Europe and the depths of despair, we went on to re-establish the Jewish state, in our ancestral homeland, Israel. #HolocaustMemorialDay

Today, we are no longer stateless, the Jewish people no longer without a voice and no longer without a national home and army to defend itself.
Today, the Jewish nation has regained our independence, our sovereignty, our army and control of our destiny.
