Today is the 64th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. Mordecai Anielewicz, leader of the Zydowska Organizacja Bojowa (Jewish Fighting Organization), wrote to Yitzhak Zuckerman outside the ghetto:
I feel that great things are happening, that what we have undertaken is of tremendous significance... Peace be with you, my dear friend. Perhaps we will see each other again. The main thing is that my life's dream has been realized. The Jewish self defense in the Warsaw ghetto has become a reality.
