TONY Blair finally showed some political acumen when announcing January 27 as Holocaust Remembrance Day. He stressed that it would not be a public holiday.
People are getting a little tired at the way the Jews have "hijacked" the Holocaust as their own.
Families of victims of other holocausts, in which millions have been butchered, since 1945, have been pushed to one side. This is wrong and can only lead to ill-feeling against the Jewish communities worldwide.
We don't need any more monuments or museums. It is time to draw a line under this period of history and bring to an end the hype whipped up by those employed in the Holocaust "industry".
