French abortion rights champion, holocaust survivor Simone Veil dies, aged 89
French abortion rights champion, holocaust survivor Simone Veil dies, aged 89
Simone Veil, the concentration camp survivor who persuaded the French parliament to legalise abortion, has died at the age of 89. President Emmanuel Macron declared that she represented the "best of France" and hundreds of other tributes have been paid to her. "Let her example inspire our compatriots, who will find the best of France in it," Macron said in a Tweet after her death was announced by her family on Thursday. For his predecessor, François Hollande, Veil "epitomised dignity, courage and rectitude". "France has lost an exceptional woman, a great witness and an activist for the memory of the Shoah," Francis Kalifat of Jewish group Crif declared. http://en.rfi.fr/france/20170630-fre...l-dies-aged-89 |

Simone Jacob, the future Simone Veil, her mother and her sister Milou lived for several months in Auschwitz-Birkenau within “a few dozen metres” of what we are told was a factory for exterminating Jews.
Yet they suspected NOTHING of the crime of crimes! http://robertfaurisson.blogspot.be/2...-veil-her.html |
