“For sufferance is the badge of all our tribe” (Shakespeare, Merchant of Venice). Throughout history, the Jews have suffered a great torment. Many of these include persecution in Spain, abolition from England, or the Russian Pogroms. Out of all however, the most recent and profound is the Holocaust.
