Ambassador Mike Huckabee recently shared an AI-image of an American soldier holding a striped-pajama prison inmate that was supposed to be a Jewish victim of Hitler. AI has also recently been employed by AI-For-Good to create fake videos that teach about supposedly real issues, like antisemitism. AI is simultaneously being blamed for spreading antisemitism because search engines and bots are pulling factual records that some people don't like. Meanwhile, Yad Vashem is employing AI to hunt down additional victims of Hitler that to this day have still yet to reach the 6 million number. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Join host Andrea Hutlock for a thoughtful conversation with Elizabeth SoRelle, commission educator at the Texas Holocaust, Genocide and Antisemitism Advisory Commission (THGAAC), about the importance of Holocaust education and the lasting impact meaningful classroom experiences can have on students. In this episode, Elizabeth reflects on her journey from classroom teacher to Holocaust education advocate, including professional learning experiences at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and Yad Vashem in Jerusalem. She also shares how those experiences have inspired powerful student projects that help students connect emotionally with history while deepening their understanding of the world around them. Andrea and Elizabeth discuss helping students form personal connections to history, creating authentic learning opportunities that resonate beyond the classroom, and preserving stories that encourage compassion while strengthening understanding across cultures and generations. The episode also touches on Senate Bill 1828, which requires Holocaust education in Texas public schools, and Holocaust Remembrance Week.
Israels Holocaust-Gedenkstätte Yad Vashem eröffnet in München und Leipzig ihre ersten Außenstellen. Der Direktor der Bildungsstätte Anne Frank, Meron Mendel, hat allerdings Bedenken: Israels Regierung könnte bestimmte Deutungsmuster forcieren wollen. Schulz, Sandra www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interviews
"[...] ich habe eher gemischte Gefühle bei dem ganzen Vorgang", sagt Historiker Jens-Christian Wagner, Direktor der Stiftung Gedenkstätten Buchenwald und Mittelbau-Dora. Er begrüßt zwar die Stärkung der Holocaust-Bildung, kritisiert aber die mangelnde Transparenz und fehlende Einbindung bestehender Gedenkstätten bei der Planung der neuen Yad-Vashem-Außenstelle in München.

Drei Monate nach Beginn der Angriffe auf den Iran - wo stehen wir? Der Iran gibt sich trotzig und hält die Straße von Hormus weiter als Faustpfand. Donald Trump sucht einen Mini-Deal │ Die EU-Außenminister debattieren darüber, wer mit Putin am Verhandlungstisch sitzen könnte. │ München war für Hitler die "Hauptstadt der Bewegung", in der NSDAP-Zentrale in der bayerischen Landeshauptstadt war Judenhass Parteiprogramm.

Lo scorso 11 marzo, al Giardino dei Giusti di tutto il mondo di Milano, nel parco del Monte Stella, sono stati onorati cinque nuovi Giusti che appartengono al passato e al presente. Il termine Giusto è tratto dal passo del Talmud che afferma che “chi salva una vita salva il mondo intero”, questo concetto è stato applicato per la prima volta allo Yad Vashem , il Museo della Shoah di Gerusalemme in riferimento a coloro che hanno salvato degli ebrei durante la persecuzione nazista in Europa. Della giornata dei Giusti, che ricorre il 6 marzo e dei Giusti ce ne parla Gabriele Nissim, presidente della Fondazione “Foresta dei Giusti”, Gariwo. Quest'anno i Giusti onorati sono stati cinque e il tema per l'onorificenza è stato: “I Giusti per la democrazia. Dialogo e non violenza per costruire la pace”, sono stati onorati il giurista Pietro Calamandrei, il pastore protestante, Martin Luther King, Vivian Silver, attivista israeliana, Reem Al Hajajreh, attivista palestinese e Aleksandra Skochilenko, dissidente russa. Ne parliamo, oltre che con il presidente di Gariwo, anche con Francesca Cenni, direttrice della biblioteca “Pietro Calamandrei” di Montepulciano e con Gianluca Briguglia, professore in Storia del pensiero politico alla Facoltà di Filosofia dell'Università Vita-Salute San Raffaele di Milano.

Gen. Steve Anderson criticizes U.S. involvement. Thank you for listening, sharing and subscribing The Third Opinion Podcast!
Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. ToI founding editor David Horovitz joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As Israel marks Holocaust Remembrance Day, Horovitz discusses comments made by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at his pre-recorded speech at Yad Vashem, in which he focused on the blows dealt to the Iranian regime by Israel and the US on behalf of the free world. While mediators aim to maneuver the US and Iran back to talks, Horovitz reviews the gaps between Tehran and Washington, the newly declared US naval blockade on Iran, and the acute dangers of the patient, malevolent regime's survival. With Israeli and Lebanese ambassadors heading to a first, single meeting on Tuesday in Washington, Horovitz notes that both sides have the same goal, disarming Hezbollah, while the terrorist army wants to stop the talks. Finally, Horovitz briefly discusses Peter Magyar's landslide victory in Hungary, a blow for US President Donald Trump and the Israeli premier, creating a shift, too, in the EU.

Cette année, la cérémonie de Yad Vashem se déroule à huis clos.Pas de public. Une mémoire sous tension. Mais derrière les commémorations, une réalité plus silencieuse :celle des survivants qui vivent aujourd’hui dans la détresse, parfois dans l’oubli. Une mémoire qui ne suffit plus. Une responsabilité qui nous regarde.
Dans ce nouvel épisode de Failles, je reçois Catherine Vieu Charier, une femme au destin romanesque. Ancienne institutrice, membre du Parti Communiste et adjointe à la Mairie de Paris chargée de la mémoire, Catherine s'est construite en opposition à l'angoisse maladive de ses parents.Au micro, elle se livre sans filtre sur ses traumatismes d'enfance, son grand amour avec un enfant caché pendant la guerre, les deuils terribles qui ont jalonné son parcours, et le lourd secret de sa grand-mère face à la milice française.Un témoignage rare, brut et lumineux sur la résilience, où l'on découvre comment une femme qui a refusé d'avoir des enfants a finalement passé 35 ans de sa vie à honorer la mémoire de ceux que l'Histoire a voulu effacer.

A Marcha da Vida ainda faz sentido? Para muita gente, a Marcha da Vida, programa que leva jovens judeus a um percurso de duas semanas entre Polônia, Berlim e Israel, foi uma experiência transformadora, quase um rito de passagem. Mas hoje, em um mundo atravessado por guerras, polarizações, disputas de narrativa e um crescimento preocupante do antissemitismo, essa experiência é interrogada de novas formas. O que significa caminhar por campos de extermínio num momento em que a memória da Shoá é relativizada ou instrumentalizada? Como falar de Israel com jovens que vivem tensões políticas, éticas e afetivas em relação ao Estado? E de que forma o programa pode continuar sendo um espaço de educação, memória e reflexão crítica para as juventudes judaicas diversas de hoje? Para conversar sobre o tema, convidamos mais uma vez o Yoel Schvartz, sociólogo e historiador, professor de história judaica e palestrante no Yad Vashem, o museu do Holocausto em Jerusalém. Nasceu na Argentina, mora em Israel faz trinta anos, foi diretor do instituto para a formação de liderança em Jerusalém e morou no Brasil no começo dos anos dois mil - por isso, fala português.

We spreak with Marissa Streit, CEO of PragerU about education, civics, and parenting in a time of cultural chaos. Marissa shares the moment that inspired her to "enlist" through education, explains why activism can show up even in math and literacy, and calls on parents to stop outsourcing values to institutions. Our discussion also explores he crisis facing young women today—marriage, meaning, dignity, and femininity—and why Marissa believes a new "revolution" is needed. Plus: practical ways to use PragerU at home in just 5–20 minutes a day. https://www.prageru.com Timestamps & Key Moments 00:04 — Intro + Who is Marissa Streit / What is PragerU Polina introduces Marissa, PragerU's mission, and why parents must take a more active role in teaching civics/history. 02:14 — "Enlisting" through education We reflect on the idea of serving the country through education. 04:36 — The conversation begins (education + what parents can do) Marissa lays out her core claim: education didn't just reflect today's problems—it helped create them. 06:28 — Marissa's origin story: Yad Vashem + the lesson of "fight before it's too late" A formative moment at 13 shapes her worldview about personal responsibility and courage. 08:55 — America "under attack" through ideas, not tanks Marissa argues civics and American values are not being taught—and that creates vulnerability. 11:14 — Parents as "the enemy" + the COVID wake-up call She describes how many parents only saw curriculum issues during lockdowns. 15:41 — Teacher training: minimal math instruction + "generative" activism in class Marissa claims teacher credential programs under-train basic instruction and over-emphasize DEI/activism. 17:59 — "Fruit salad" vs. melting pot + division as a goal She argues schools incentivize identity and class division rather than unity. 20:16 — Literacy example: books that embed social agendas Marissa cites specific book examples and argues parents must review all subjects, not just "sex ed." 22:32 — Paulo Freire + teachers as "agents of change" Discussion of how activist pedagogy shows up in teacher training. 24:55 — NEA agenda + what shocked her most (2022) Marissa claims the #1 issue of business was the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, and questions why. 29:45 — Money + bureaucracy + unions + political incentives A broader critique of the Department of Education, unions, and the "cycle" of funding and influence. 32:01 — "Are we being gaslit?" + PRISM training (California) Marissa argues parents should read the materials directly and not accept reassurances at face value. 38:32 — Civics collapse: how do kids defend what they don't understand? Marissa argues love of country requires understanding its history and founding ideals. 40:53 — The parent solution: rituals, debates, voting, family civic life + PragerU board game She emphasizes bottom-up responsibility and teaching at home regardless of school quality. 45:20 — Young women, feminism, marriage, and meaning Marissa argues cultural messaging has created confusion and loneliness; she shares her desire to write a book to help young women. 50:01 — Family as her proudest accomplishment Marissa describes motherhood and marriage as central—not secondary—to a fulfilled life. 54:43 — Europe as a warning Marissa talks about cultural fracture, immigration, and the need for shared civic identity. 57:02 — Cultural literacy: "We all spoke American" She argues a shared framework is necessary for cohesion—and that education must restore it. 59:23 — How to use PragerU as a parent Marissa offers a simple daily habit: 5–20 minutes, watch a short video, and have kids explain it back. 01:01:22 — Closing + call for feedback Marissa invites listeners to message her with thoughts, especially on her women-focused project. Key Quotes "Education got us into this mess. Education is going to get us out of this mess." (≈ 04:36) "Most people rely on others to do the fighting for them… and they don't begin to fight until it's absolutely too late." (≈ 06:28) "America… is being taken down through ideas, through the erosion of what it is to be an American." (≈ 08:55) "Civics education is reduced to just activism… How do you defend a country that you don't understand and don't love?" (≈ 38:32)
The official 2025 Claims Conference report claims that 220,800 survivors of the "Jewish-Holocaust" are still alive today, with 50% living in Israel and 16% living in the U.S. This number is a massive increase from years previous where it was reported to have been 100,000 in 2016 before jumping to 245,000 in 2020. Yad Vashem also published their findings of 5 million murdered Jews in late 2025, noting that AI and algorithms can help discover the remaining million. They state that 2.8 million are recorded by Pages of Testimony, which require no evidence or even documentation, and can include people not even murdered. Likewise, the increasing number of victims is a result of similar adjustments to assumed facts, i.e., anyone can be a "survivor," including people born after the war according to the Claims Conference. Yad Vashem also admits, "there is no document in our possession that indicates specifically by whom, at what time, and in what way it was decided to embark on the total extermination of the Jews," and provides a transcript of the Wannsee Conference where the Germans discuss the Final Solution as being an emigration plan involving work and transit facilities. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

The Metaphysics of Race seeks to reframe debates on the conflicting scientific and spiritual traditions that underpinned the Nazi worldview, showing how despite the multitude of tensions and rivals among its adherents, it provided a coherent conceptual grid and possessed its own philosophical consistency. Drawing on a large variety of works, the volume offers insights into the intellectual climate that allowed the radical ideology of National Socialism to take hold. It examines the emergence of nuanced conceptions of race in interwar Germany and the pursuit of a new ethical and existential fulcrum in biology. Accordingly, the volume calls for a re-examination of the place of genetics in Nazi racial thought, drawing attention to the multi-register voices within the framework of interwar racial theory. Varshizky explores the ways in which these ideas provided new justifications for the Nazi revolutionary enterprise and blurred the distinction between fact and value, knowledge and faith, the secular and the sacred, and how they allowed Nazi thinkers to bounce across these epistemological divisions. This volume will be of interest to scholars of Nazi Germany and World War II, intellectual and cultural history, the history of science, and the philosophy of religion. Amit Varshizky is an Israeli-born, Berlin-based historian, novelist, and essayist. He holds a PhD from the School of Historical Studies at Tel Aviv University and has lectured at academic institutions in both Israel and Germany. His research focuses on the history of racism and antisemitism in modern Europe, the intellectual and cultural history of Nazism, German Romanticism, the philosophy of science, and theories of religion, myth, and secularism. His articles and reviews on these subjects have appeared in leading peer-reviewed journals. His book The Metaphysics of Race: Science and Faith in the Nazi Worldview (Open University of Israel and Yad Vashem, 2021) was awarded the Goldberg Prize of the Open University of Israel for Best Research Book (2019) and the Bartal Am VeOlam Prize of the Israel Historical Society for Outstanding Book of the Year (2022).

Hi everyone, welcome back to The Chai on Life Podcast! I'm so happy to be back after a postpartum hiatus. Baruch Hashem I am so grateful for the little miracle baby that I now have in my life and so grateful to have had the quality time with him and now so grateful to be able to focus back on the podcast a bit more. Gd willing, I will be doing a full episode on the birth story and some reflections from that, so if that's interesting to you stay tuned. But now, I've been busy working on some interviews with really incredible people and I am so excited to share them.Today's episode is with Shoshana Judelman. I got connected to Shoshana through Midreshet Rachel — she is a teacher there now and has always been passionate about teaching Torah and Jewish History. She holds a Bachelor's in History and a Master's in Jewish History. She made aliyah with her husband and six children to Efrat in 2013. In addition to teaching at MRC, Shoshana teaches Chassidus for the Shirat David Community in Efrat as well as for BeOr Panecha in Elazar. She is a guide in Poland with JRoots and co-leads inspirational trips to Ukraine and around Eretz Yisroel. Shoshana has also been a guide at Yad Vashem since 2014.In this episode, she is sharing so much about her connection to the world of Chassidus, what we can learn from it and how we can connect to Chanukah more deeply through its teachings. She speaks about:-How she got into Chassidus and became a baal teshuva-What the difference is between Chassidus and other perspectives on Torah-How we can interpret the world through the lens of our human soul and Gdly soul which was a really interesting and helpful teaching-What it really means that just a little bit of light can dispel a lot of darkness (with a really great mashal included in that)-How to cope when it feels like the darkness is getting darker, whether in your own personal world or in the world at large-How you can personally connect through the lighting of the Chanukah candles and practically a great tip if you have a busy household and it's hard to focus when your family is lighting together-Her own personal struggle at the moment and how she's dealing with it and becoming closer with Hashem in the process. This was so beautiful I was really getting emotional …and so so much more!To daven for Shoshana, her full name is Shoshana Yonah bat AidelLearn more from Shoshana here.
Over the last two weeks, the Polish government has been doubling down on its official narrative that, during the Second World War, its own people were the victims of the Germans—not responsible for collaborating in the murder of millions of Jews during the Holocaust. That policy has been law since 2018, and has led to strained relations with Israel, Holocaust survivors and academic scholars, including award-winning Canadian professor Jan Grabowski. Grabowski, a historian at the University of Ottawa and the child of a Warsaw Holocaust survivor, has spent years researching how ordinary Poles denounced, betrayed and helped carry out the murder of 200,000 Jews—mostly without any prodding from the Nazis. That's why Grabowski, who has been sued by the Polish state over this issue, has been closely monitoring the recent flare-ups involving Poland, Israel, and even Germany, which began at the end of November. It started on Nov. 19, when the new U.S. ambassador to Poland—an observant American Jew who used to run the Jerusalem Post—told a startled Warsaw conference that it was “a grotesque falsehood” and a “historic injustice” to blame Poland for Holocaust crimes committed by others. After that, a popular far-right member of the Polish parliament stood outside the gates of Auschwitz to oppose the country's plan to adopt a new antisemitism strategy. He called for Jews to be kicked out of the country. Then, on Nov. 25, the Israeli ambassador to Poland was summoned over a social media post from Yad Vashem. On today's episode of The CJN's flagship news podcast North Star, Grabowski joins to unpack why his native country continues distorting the truth about its past involvement in the Holocaust, and how Polish officials are dismissing the historical records he's unearthed, which tell a more nuanced story of who killed Poland's Jews.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. On Saturday, Qatari Foreign Ministry spokesman, Majed al-Ansari stated in a podcast that the issue of the two remaining bodies of hostages -- taken to Gaza on October 7, 2023, during the Hamas onslaught on southern Israel -- is allowing Israel to potentially delay the next phase of the Trump peace plan. Horovitz weighs in on the readiness of both sides to move forward. Yesterday, six years after he was indicted on charges of fraud, bribery and breach of trust, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu submitted a 111-page formal pardon request to President Isaac Herzog, seeking an end to his long-running and unprecedented corruption trial. We remind listeners of the charges against the premier and the very public intervention by US President Donald Trump on his behalf. Netanyahu claims that ending his trials may help heal Israel -- but could it instead cause a greater rift? Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

A new exhibition at Yad Vashem has opened that puts hundreds of personal possessions and artifacts from Holocaust survivors, most never before seen by the public, on display for the first time. Entitled Living Memory, it offers a fresh and personal look at the lives of individuals whose stories were lost in the mass murder of six million Jews. Curator Eliad Moreh-Rosenberg told reporter Arieh O’Sullivan that the exhibition’s aim was to pass on the memories to the next generation.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian and Jewish world reporter Zev Stub join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. In an indication of the uptick of events along Israel’s northern border, IDF troops conducted an overnight raid in southern Lebanon and destroyed several buildings that were being used by Hezbollah, the military says. This is the second ground operation inside Lebanon in the past several days, conducted outside of the five points Israel now holds inside its neighbor. We learn about the IDF's outlook for a stepped-up conflict. Upon assuming office, Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir appointed a panel of former senior military officers to conduct an external investigation into the series of the IDF's internal probes in its failures on and ahead of Hamas’s October 7, 2023, terror onslaught. Fabian explores the new panel's findings and where the IDF needs to fill in holes. Itai Ofir will become the military advocate general later this month after Defense Minister Israel Katz ratified his appointment Sunday. He will succeed Maj. Gen. Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, who resigned and admitted to authorizing the leak of the Sde Teiman detainee abuse video. Fabian describes an unusual rank jump that Ofir will need to be given to assume the role. After a dramatic negotiation process with several surprise turns, the next leadership of the World Zionist Organization has been selected. Just ahead of recording, Stub learned that Rabbi Doron Perez, chairman of the religious Zionist World Mizrachi movement and father of Cpt. Daniel Perez, who was killed in the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack, will split the five-year term with the incumbent chairman of the WZO, Yaakov Hagoel. Last week, Yad Vashem, Israel’s World Holocaust Remembrance Center, said that it has recovered the names of five million Jews murdered in the Holocaust, a milestone it called “historic” in its decades-long mission to restore the identities of the six million Jews murdered by the Nazis.As part of its mission to mark every one of those six million as an individual, the museum wing has opened a new exhibit with deeply personal affects. Stub was at the new exhibit and reports back. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

The Metaphysics of Race seeks to reframe debates on the conflicting scientific and spiritual traditions that underpinned the Nazi worldview, showing how despite the multitude of tensions and rivals among its adherents, it provided a coherent conceptual grid and possessed its own philosophical consistency. Drawing on a large variety of works, the volume offers insights into the intellectual climate that allowed the radical ideology of National Socialism to take hold. It examines the emergence of nuanced conceptions of race in interwar Germany and the pursuit of a new ethical and existential fulcrum in biology. Accordingly, the volume calls for a re-examination of the place of genetics in Nazi racial thought, drawing attention to the multi-register voices within the framework of interwar racial theory. Varshizky explores the ways in which these ideas provided new justifications for the Nazi revolutionary enterprise and blurred the distinction between fact and value, knowledge and faith, the secular and the sacred, and how they allowed Nazi thinkers to bounce across these epistemological divisions. This volume will be of interest to scholars of Nazi Germany and World War II, intellectual and cultural history, the history of science, and the philosophy of religion. Amit Varshizky is an Israeli-born, Berlin-based historian, novelist, and essayist. He holds a PhD from the School of Historical Studies at Tel Aviv University and has lectured at academic institutions in both Israel and Germany. His research focuses on the history of racism and antisemitism in modern Europe, the intellectual and cultural history of Nazism, German Romanticism, the philosophy of science, and theories of religion, myth, and secularism. His articles and reviews on these subjects have appeared in leading peer-reviewed journals. His book The Metaphysics of Race: Science and Faith in the Nazi Worldview (Open University of Israel and Yad Vashem, 2021) was awarded the Goldberg Prize of the Open University of Israel for Best Research Book (2019) and the Bartal Am VeOlam Prize of the Israel Historical Society for Outstanding Book of the Year (2022). An English version of the book was published by Routledge in 2024. Learn more about your ad choices.

En el año 1940 cuando en el pequeño pueblo de Le Chambon-sur de Lignon en Francia, un pastor protestante llamado André Trocmé lideró a su comunidad para esconder a miles de judíos perseguidos por los nazis. Bajo la ocupación alemana, este pueblo rural ofreció refugio, alimentos y documentos falsos a quienes huían del Holocausto. En sus memorias, Trocmé escribió: “No sabemos hasta cuándo podremos protegerlos, pero mientras lo podamos hacer, lo haremos en el nombre de Cristo”. Este hecho fue reconocido por Yad Vashem, el memorial del Holocausto en Israel ha sido documentado por múltiples historiadores. Le Chambon no tenía grandes recursos, pero tenía compasión. Sus habitantes eligieron obedecer la conciencia en lugar del miedo. No solo protegieron a los inocentes, sino que reflejaron el carácter del Evangelio: hospitalidad valiente, amor práctico y fe sin excusas. Hoy tal vez tú no escondes fugitivos, pero puedes abrir tus puertas al que sufre, al que duda, al que necesita consuelo. La verdadera fe no solo se predica: se vive con actos concretos de misericordia. La Biblia dice en Hebreos 13:2: “No os olvidéis de la hospitalidad, porque por ella algunos, sin saberlo, hospedaron ángeles” (RV1960).
Guy Miron, professor of modern European Jewish history at the Open University of Israel, and the director of the Center for the Study of the Holocaust in Germany at Yad Vashem and a board member of the Leo Baeck Institute in Jerusalem, discusses his most recent book, Space and Time Under Persecution: The German-Jewish Experience in the Third Reich.
