$80.00

  • The Veterans Alliance (or its full name: Alliance of World War II Veterans Who Fought the Nazis) is the association representing Jewish fighters who fought in the ranks of the Allied armies (mainly the Red Army), in partisan units and in the underground against Nazi Germany.
  • Below are key details about the organization and its activities:
  • Purpose and establishment: The organization was established in 1977 with the aim of recognizing the heroism of Jewish fighters and ensuring their rights. With waves of immigration from the former Soviet Union in the 1990s, the organization grew significantly and led to the enactment of the “World War II Veterans Status Law” (2000), which grants Lutherans financial benefits, rental assistance and discounts on medications.
  • Leadership: Until his death in April 2024, the organization was headed by Abraham Greenzeid, who was a key figure in preserving the legacy of the fighters and achieving state recognition for them.
  • Activities and commemoration:
  • o Victory Day (May 9): The organization leads the “Victory Day over Nazi Germany” events in Israel, which include marches (and veterans in uniforms adorned with medals) and state ceremonies, the main one being at Yad Vashem.
  • o Museums and branches: There are dozens of branches throughout the country (about 48) that work for the welfare of veterans. In addition, there are museums dedicated to commemorating their legacy in cities such as Nesher (the Yuri Stern Veterans Museum) and Ariel.
  • Current situation: As of 2025, only about 112 combat veterans are living in Israel (out of about 2,500 members, which also include Leningrad besiegers and ghetto survivors), due to their extreme age, which often exceeds 80.

Richard McClintock, a Latin scholar from Hampden-Sydney College, is credited with discovering the source behind the ubiquitous filler text. In seeing a sample of lorem ipsum, his interest was piqued by consectetur—a genuine, albeit rare, Latin word. Consulting a Latin dictionary led McClintock to a passage from De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum On the Extremes of Good and Evil, a first-century B.C. text from the Roman.

Carried only by professionals

So when is it okay to use lorem ipsum? First, lorem ipsum works well for staging. It’s like the props in a furniture store—filler text makes it look like someone is home. The same Wordpress template might eventually be home to a fitness blog, a photography website, or the online journal of a cupcake fanatic. Lorem ipsum helps them imagine what the lived-in website might look like.
