"We are presently marking 75 years of Israeli rebirth. Seventy-five years of victory, in which the Jewish and democratic State of Israel, and Israeli society, its back strait, stand and declare before the Nazi monster and those who would follow its path, even in this generation: you will not defeat us."

President Isaac Herzog, at special Commemoration Ceremony of 80 years since the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising at the March for the Living, Auschwitz, April 17, 2023
