At a time when anti-Semitic incidents are rising in almost every part of the world and Israel’s adversaries launched missile attacks from Lebanon, Syria and the Gaza Strip during Passover, the reminder of the hatred that led to one of the world’s most heinous acts remains high in the Israeli consciousness.
