Nude Martyrs

Yesterday, Russian president Putin unveiled a statue in Israel of six figures and one a small child, standing in a circle surrounded by barbed wire, to commemorate the six million Jews who died in the Holocaust.

A noble gesture indeed, albeit with one major flaw: the figures were scandalously naked.

In quite unfortunate that Israelis don't appear to have the moral well-being of Americans. They actually accepted it.

What if a child saw it?

Mr. Putin: put some clothes on that statue!
