On Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, we are all called to contemplate the truth of the genocide: the brutal murder of six million Jews simply because they were Jewish, of six million women, men and children, in addition to the millions who were displaced and hunted just because they were Jewish.

This pressure emanates mainly from the capital markets, which went into free fall recently and which sometimes appear to have become absurdly pessimistic, just as they were absurdly optimistic until recently, at least according to Mr Greenspan.
Ces pressions proviennent surtout des marchés financiers qui ont enregistré une chute brutale ces derniers temps et qui donnent parfois l’impression d’avoir cédé à un pessimisme irraisonné, tout comme, jusqu’à une date récente, ils témoignaient, du moins selon M. Greenspan, d’un optimisme irraisonné.

At midday – of course – they drew their guns, but, just as they were about to fire, the scene was interrupted by someone telling Mr Maaten to take his cigarette out of his mouth before firing. Mr Maaten took his cigarette out of his mouth and said: ‘You are right, for I am tabling a document which seeks to make European citizens smoke less’.

Today, as the euro, the currency of the Euro-optimists, plummets, it is an urgent necessity that all nations should be able to keep their own currency, just as they keep their national sports teams, of which they are so proud, with no need of artificial stimulants.

We should remember that it was precisely these Caucasian territories round the Caspian Sea that were the cause of conflicts a hundred years ago, because they were geographically strategic, just as they are today. After all, these events shaped the twentieth century as we know it.
