Uri Regev: “I have to admit I don’t remember many cases of barbeques on Holocaust Day…”

I am appalled at the thought of a BBQ adjacent to Yad Vashem on Yom Hashoa, but gratified that even a soneh Yisrael such as Regev (just Google the rest of his comment) has to admit that’s it’s an anomaly.

Aside from there being legitimate mekoros for not having a national day of mourning other than Tisha B’av, the date chosen is especially abhorrent for commemorating “gevurah”, which is right in line with the Zionists’ theme of kochi v’otzem yadi.
