From 1939 to 1945, Nazi Germany implemented what they called "The Final Solution"—exterminating all Jews from Europe. Tragically, more than half of the Jewish people died in the Holocaust. To remember this genocide, the UN designated Jan. 27 each year to remember.

"We join together first and foremost to honor the memory of those who perished; to ensure they are never forgotten; to give them—as it says in the Book of Isaiah—‘a monument and a name,'" said UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.

Yet during a recent vote on a UN resolution combatting Holocaust denial, Israel's ambassador to the UN warned too many don't even know about the Holocaust.

"Friends, only 54% of the world's population has heard of the Holocaust, with one-third of them skeptical of the facts. Some of them believe that the deaths have been exaggerated, while others believe the Holocaust is a complete myth," said Gilad Erdan, Israel's Ambassador to the UN.

This year for the first time, events in both Cairo and Abu Dhabi marked the first-ever commemorations of the Holocaust.

"This was a groundbreaking event in Egypt that took place. And this week, we're going to be seeing a similar event take place in the United Arab Emirates. It's a wonderful development to see this relationship between the Arab world and Israel getting to the point where we are seeing Holocaust commemoration," Ellie Cohanim, the State Department's former envoy to combat anti-Semitism, told CBN News.

Cohanim says it's a reminder of the change the Abraham Accords have brought to the Middle East.

"We've seen a brand-new face of the Middle East and that is a face of acceptance of the Jewish State of Israel and acceptance of the Jewish people's sovereignty in the Middle East. And with that, really, just a sea change in attitudes towards Jews and Israel."

Cohanim and many others say it's important to remember the Holocaust because the hatred that starts with the Jews, never ends with the Jews.

On this day 77 years ago, Soviet troops liberated the Auschwitz concentration camp, where Nazi forces murdered more than 1.1 million people, the vast majority of them Jews.

May we recommit that such evil must "never again" take place. #HolocaustRemembranceDay -Family Research Council (@FRCdc) January 27, 2022 Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
