Les 16 et 17 juillet 1942, plus de treize-mille Juifs furent arrêtés. Par des Français, par l'État français. Parce qu’ils étaient Juifs. Plus de huit-mille furent détenus au Vel d’Hiv avant d’être déportés à Auschwitz. N’oublions jamais.

Israel heading to another lockdown. Schools & summer camps set to close. Further limits on gatherings. Restaurants possibly too. Curfew during weekends also being discussed. Final decision expected tonight. Epic fail by the Netanyahu-led “emergency corona” government

PM Netanyahu at tonight's Corona Czar live broadcast: "People are getting infected because they're protesting in the streets." Which is weird, because the experts told me its because he opened schools irresponsibly & against their advice. @thedailybeast thedailybeast.com/israeli-da…
