No mention of Jews in White House's Holocaust Remembrance Day tribute

[frankenshane]

The White House raised eyebrows on Friday when it issued a statement to commemorate International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, that did not mention Jews, Judaism or antisemitism.

The statement read:

It is with a heavy heart and somber mind that we remember and honor the victims, survivors, heroes

That would also be leaving out the LGBTQUIA+ members, Rromani, the disabled and political victims who were also killed as unwanted in the Holocaust.

But, not as surprising as the Jew omission.

Not surprised, Bannon probably wouldn't allow it. He's already been exposed as an anti-semite.

Bannon is probably a Holocaust denier anyway.

In the name of the perished, I pledge to do everything in my power throughout my Presidency, and my life, to ensure that the forces of evil never again defeat the powers of good. Together, we will make love and tolerance prevalent throughout the world.

YOU ARE THE FORCES OF EVIL
