8. 'No mention of Jews in White House's Holocaust Remembrance Day tribute' (The Guardian, 2017)

Thu Apr 10, 2025, 07:14 AM

Apr 10

"The White House has defended its omission of Jews and antisemitism from a statement remembering the Holocaust by saying that Donald Trump’s administration 'took into account all of those who suffered.'"

"On International Holocaust Remembrance Day on Friday, the White House made no mention of Jews, Judaism or the antisemitism that fueled Nazi Germany’s mass murder of six million Jews in the 1940s...The head of the Anti-Defamation League, Jonathan Greenblatt, wondered aloud about the 'puzzling and troubling' statement, and its break with the precedent."

"The executive director of the Anne Frank Center, Steven Goldstein, similarly scolded the president: 'How can you forget, Mr President, that six million Jews were murdered because they were Jews? You chose the vague phrase ‘innocent people.’ They were Jews, Mr President.'"

(There were "very fine people on both sides" during the Holocaust.)
