"Later today I will return to the hallowed ground of … Yad Vashem to honor the 6 million Jewish lives that were stolen in a genocide and continue – which must we must do every, every day – continue to bear witness, to keep alive the truth and honor of the Holocaust — horror of the Holocaust, honor those we lost so that we never, ever forget that lesson, you know and to continue our shared, unending work to fight the poison of anti-Semitism wherever it raises its ugly head," Biden said.
Later Wednesday, the president visited the Yad Vashem memorial to honor Holocaust victims in Jerusalem. Wearing a skullcap, Biden was invited to rekindle the eternal flame in the memorial's Hall of Remembrance. Two Marines placed a wreath on the stone crypt containing the ashes of Holocaust victims and Biden listened as a cantor recited the remembrance prayer.
