?Miss Holocaust Survivor? crowned in Israel, stirring smiles and controversy
Grinning and waving, 14 women who survived the horrors of World War II paraded Thursday in an unusual pageant, vying for the honour of being crowned Israel?s first ?Miss Holocaust Survivor.?

Billed by organizers as a celebration of life, the event also stirred controversy. In a country where millions have been touched by the Holocaust, many argued that judging aging women who had suffered so much on physical appearance was inappropriate, and even offensive. (Photos: AFP/Getty Images)
