Abraham Grant He said: “This is an important and exciting event, I wanted to be here. My father was also a Holocaust survivor, and he taught me about proportions and love, and taught me about life. These most important people, Righteous Among the Nations risked their lives just because they thought it was the right thing to do. I wonder what made some people quiet when they saw the killing, and on the other hand what made these amazing people risk their lives and the lives of their families. “

Grant added: “Of course it’s the right thing to do, but it’s still amazing. There is a saying that a customer also from the football fields, that sometimes doing nothing is the right thing to do, but I can tell you that history was not built from people who did nothing. Stop hating each other, love and be optimistic, I salute you for what you did. “
