Tolerance
Es oblicacion moral de cada ser humano resguardar la santidad de la vida, dar trato digno a los semejantes, respetar y tolerar las opiniones, prácticas y conductas de los demás. Debemos aprender de esta tragedia que ante la maldad, el silencio y la indiferencia nos hace cómplices de sus crímenes. Cada individuo está enestido con la responsibilidad de defender la verdad, la justicia, la dignídad, la libertad y la paz.
Sea este monumento, no sólo un acto de recordación sino un recordatorio para actuar. Sobre cada uno de los ciudadanos el mundo recae la obligación de asegurar que un Holocausto nunca volverá a ocurrir.
Nunca jamás.
