As Twitchy reported, Hamas lobbed hundreds of rockets into Israel over the weekend and a certain freshman congresswoman sided with Hamas. She’s the same congresswoman whom the Democratic Party just couldn’t seem to censure for her numerous anti-Semitic statements. Add to that the Democrats have put up at least one candidate for president in 2020 who’s called the current government of Israel “racist.”
So besides being a great photo, we thought this picture was a great “screw you” to all of the people in the American government who have decided maybe Israel isn’t our ally anymore and only those with “dual loyalty” would support it.
These 3 Jewish men arrived in Auschwitz on the same day, & were tattooed 10 numbers apart. 73 years later, @sandibachom photographed them meeting for the first time for the #LastEyeWitness Project, as free men who survived to build families and prosperous lives. #NeverForget pic.twitter.com/ZLkrpuoyhp

Must be tough somebodies. Glad such are in our world.

Amazing. Wonderful and terrible at the same time. Imagine the conversation. I hope their meeting brings them something good. A smile, a tear, a new friend. Just something good.

There is a Yiddish saying –
מיר זיינען דא – we are still here. It is what our grandparents used to say when they talked of the war. Each child and grandchild was a victory over Hitler’s evil. #NeverAgain— Python Headlines (@pythonheadlines) May 4, 2019
This is an incredible story & really puts life in perspective. My mom always said as a child she wondered why she was born within the circumstances she had & why others (during the war) had to suffer from horrific inhumane tragedies. It's something that's always stuck with me.

Powerful. Sad. Heroic. Heartwrenching. Heartwarming.

Think about ALL of that. They survived – they survived, and they were standing feet away from one another 73 years ago facing a horrible fate.

That smile is the best victory

The things they have seen. Bless them and their families.

This gives me chills and makes me so proud to be a member of the Jewish people. These brave men stand for what is best in the human spirit and in the human experience. As the last of the survivors of the Holocaust pass, we must reaffirm and redouble our efforts to NEVER FORGET.

We had a patient in our dental office who had an Auschwitz tattoo, plus a major scar on his neck where some Russians had attempted to behead him with a sword and he survived after they left him for dead. Sweetest, nicest guy ever.
— Velvet Sparrow (@VelvetSparrow) May 4, 2019
Whoa. What a story. How did he survive?
— ?R. Demille (@RoaDemille) May 4, 2019
Sheer chance. The attempted beheading (yes it affected his voice, hence he was very soft-spoken) came first, he survived only to be interred at Auschwitz, and survived THAT. He passed away in '92 at age 78. I was in complete awe of this man, it was an honor to work on him. ❤️
— Velvet Sparrow (@VelvetSparrow) May 4, 2019
The horrors he survived are beyond imagination, yet it happened.
Lest we forget.
