IN the Muranow district of Warsaw, once the beating heart of Europe’s largest Jewish community, the Monument to the Ghetto Heroes stands on the eastern edge of a large square.
It depicts defiant Jewish insurgents in the midst of their incredible uprising against the Nazis that began on April 19 1943.
