On Holocaust Day, Argentina's Jews Despair Over Deaths, Old And New

In more normal times, the annual Holocaust remembrance ceremony would have drawn the Jewish community to a somber ceremony at Argentina's Foreign Ministry. But a large part of the community decided to boycott the event Tuesday and hold its own on the site of a deadly bombing two decades ago.

"In honor of the victims, we will not sit at the table with people who do not tell the truth, and do not impart justice," he said.
