There are still Holocaust
deniers today, life Senator and Holocaust survivor Liliana Segre
told the European Parliament on Wednesday.
"Still, today, some people do not want to see and still now
some people say it is not true," said Segre, 89, who was taken
to Auschwitz in 1944 with her family, which did not survive.
Segre recalled the words of Holocaust writer Primo Levi, "the
amazement at the evil of others" and that "no one who was a
prisoner (in the death camps) has ever been able to forget".
Segre added that "anti-Semitism is inbuilt in the poor in
spirit"
The life Senator was recently given a police escort after
anti-Semitic threats.
