Jerusalem,
Israel --- June 15, 2013
Part of the following was communicated
by the Israel Prime Minister's Office to the Israel News Agency.
Prime Minister
of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu, made the following remarks on Thursday
at the dedication ceremony for the permanent pavilion at Block
27 at Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camp.
"The
leaders of the Allies (UK, US, France) knew about the Holocaust
in real time. They understood exactly what was happening in the
death camps. They were asked to act, they could have acted, and
they did not. To we Jews the lesson is clear. We must not be complacent
in the face of threats of annihilation. We must not bury our heads
in the sand or allow others to do the work for us.
From here,
the place that attests to the desire to destroy us, I, the Prime
Minister of Israel, the state of the Jewish People, say to all
the nations of the world: The State of Israel will do whatever
is necessary to prevent another holocaust."
Netanyahu
made the comments as other Israeli government ministers, Polish
Minister of Culture and National Heritage Bogdan Zdrojewski, Director
of the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum Piotr Cywinski, Chairman
of the Yad Vashem Directorate and exhibition curator Avner Shalev,
Chairman of the Yad Vashem Council Rabbi Israel Meir Lau and Holocaust
survivors looked on.
A definition
of "Holocaust Shoah" is written on the wall of the exhibition
foyer. As the visitor leaves the entrance, and enters this hallway
in Auschwitz-Birkenau, the senses are suffused with the words
and melody of prayer - a Jewish and universal expression of the
human spirit. Upon entering the adjoining space, visitors are
engulfed in an enveloping 360-degree cinematic montage of original
footage of Jewish life between the two world wars. Following this
sweeping panorama, visitors are confronted with the central tenets
of Nazi German racist ideology, the main motivation behind the
Germans' imperative of annihilating the Jewish people.
Netanyahu
stated that the "so-called" Iranian presidential election
will "change nothing" in the Islamic republic's quest
for nuclear weapons and that the regime will continue to pursue
a bomb aimed at destroying Israel.
"This
is a regime that is building nuclear weapons with the expressed
purpose to annihilate Israel's 6 million Jews," Netanyahu
said, alluding to the number of Jews killed by the Nazis during
World War II. "We will not allow this to happen. We will
never allow another Holocaust."
