As it happens, I am not Jewish but I am increasingly ashamed to say that I regard myself as being of Irish heritage given that, what my dad called the Old Country, is an increasingly horrible bastion of virulent antisemitsm.

Today is HMD and I reflect on four folks I know or knew who were not killed for various reasons: the author Janos Nyiri - who I remembered here, my daughter's godfather Joe Levy from Corfu (see here), her godmother Iska and also Moya Carter/Waterfield. I look at more recent examples of genocide and also at the inexplicable acceptance of antisemitism as almost acceptable in some circles today.
