Holocaust: old and new

It is the International day of the Holocaust today. Today we commemorate the fallen. Everyone, in his own way. Israel's prime minister Ehud Olmert, in a grotesque gesture of supreme duplicity, ordered the transfer of 200 million shekel (about 45 million American dollars) to the new rulers of Palestinian Autonomy. The Hamas.

The same Hamas that does not recognizes the very state the money is coming from.

The same Hamas that many times declared that it seeks the destruction of Israel.

The same Hamas that murdered hundreds and mutilated thousands of Israeli citizens.
Subjects of Prime Minister Ehud Olmert. His kinsmen. His relatives.
What kind of dramatic irony is that?

I am overwhelmed and speechless.

This is so, so sick. You know, it's also quite ironic, considering what Dan Gillerman said at the UN today.

What did he said? Probably something about not repeating the mistakes of the past?
