This was at a Holocaust Observance in Jerusalem

Snip--video of Prince Charles walking by US Vice President Mike Pence without shaking his hand at a Holocaust remembrance event in Jerusalem on Thursday went viral, and many people have interpreted it as a deliberate "snub" on the part of the prince; however, Buckingham Palace and White House officials have denied anything shady occurred.

They would like 1million followers.


They publish photos/images of the murdered.

One of today's images is a 2 yr old girl.
And I will not post the photo

"24 January 1942 | Czech Jewish girl Jiřina Steinerová was born in Prague. On 18 May 1944 she was deported from Theresienstadt Ghetto to #Auschwitz where she was murdered in a gas chamber. She was 2 years old."

They are also publishing a running list of the Dignitaries who will be attending on 27 January.

Prince Charles Appears To Snub Mike Pence At Holocaust Remembrance Event
By Khaleda Rahman On 1/23/20 at 12:29 PM EST


Prince Charles appeared to snub Vice President Mike Pence at a gathering commemorating the Holocaust in Israel on Thursday.

Numerous world leaders, dignitaries and royals have traveled to Israel for the World Holocaust Forum on Thursday, marking 75 years since the liberation of the Auschwitz death camp amid a global rise in anti-Semitic violence.

Just before the ceremony— called Remembering the Holocaust: Fighting Antisemitism—started at Jerusalem's Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial, Charles entered and brushed past both Pence and Second Lady Karen Pence without greeting them before taking his seat, according to The New York Times.
