Italian Store World:
Solidarity with Israel on Holocaust Remembrance Day
On January 27, the International Holocaust Remembrance Day is observed each year to commemorate the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp by the Red Army on January 27, 1945. Auschwitz is a symbol of the horror of genocide, which claimed the lives of six million Jews and millions of other innocent people.
But the International Holocaust Remembrance Day is also an opportunity to express our solidarity with Israel, the Jewish state that was founded in 1948 as a response to the Holocaust and as the homeland of the Jewish people. Israel, which today is a modern and dynamic democracy, a center of culture, science, and innovation, an ally of the West, and a partner of Italy and the United States.
Yet, even today Israel faces threats and attacks from those who deny its right to exist and want to destroy it, from those who fuel hatred and violence, and from those who spread antisemitism and denialism.
Jews can no longer feel safe wherever they are.
Hate, like a subterranean river, resurfaces and the world resets the clock to the last century.
We, as Italian Store World, want to testify to our closeness and support for Israel, and to highlight how our values are closely linked to its.
Values of freedom, democracy, peace, justice, dialogue, cooperation, development.
Values of civilization and humanity, which are the foundation of our identity and our mission. Values that drive us to refuse the money and the relationships of those who are not in line with them, of those who side with Israel's enemies, of those who become complicit in antisemitism and terrorism.
As Italian Store World, we believe that diversity is a wealth to be celebrated and that collaboration between cultures leads to a more prosperous and inclusive society.
In our efforts to consolidate the presence of Italian e-commerce on the American market, we are committed to promoting a positive and inclusive vision. We want to emphasize how beauty and excellence are a bridge between cultures, contributing to building positive connections and overcoming divisions.
In this context, we reiterate our commitment to the values of tolerance and mutual respect.
As a company committed to digital exports, we believe in the power of global connections to foster a deeper understanding between nations.
We are confident that our customer community will share our commitment to a world in which diversity is celebrated and stereotypes are broken down. We will continue to work tirelessly to promote an online shopping experience that reflects the values of integrity, trust, and respect.
Tomorrow, and every day, we say no to indifference, ignorance, fear, and violence.
Only when the right of the State of Israel to exist and the Jews to live is guaranteed, will it be possible to found the State of Palestine, free, prosperous, and possibly democratic.
