From the photos there it looked more like a pleasant outing Auschwitz. The pics hardly seemed portray a feel of atrocity. I think that to fully let what happened there sink in, you need to visit in winter. |

At the place in the picture with the "tool" there were gas chambers that you could walk into. Small holes in the ceiling allowed the Nazis to drop Zyklon-B into there. Many people that died walked in there thinking they were just taking a shower. The ovens that bodies were put into are in the room adjacent to the "shower" room.
You're not allowed to take pictures in there, but I'm sure if you look hard enough they're out there. |

Is it? I'm sure I remember a documentary about swallows or something that have followed the same flight path for centuries? ![]() OK, so discounting Swallows how about Pigeons? They are flying rats and I don't think they give a **** where they fly over or land providing there is no threat. |

As a young guy only a few years in Germany disgusted by Germany´s history and somewhat proud in its achievements (i know everyone gonna get that wrong but meh) but fact is look at this little sh!thole that stirred up earth
Anyways I wanted to see the so called Concentration camps In the time (also with my former school back then we visited, Bergen-Belsen, Dora-Mittelbau, Dachau, Hinzert, Buchenwald and Sachsenhausen, and i must say the images are still somewhat stuck in my head. At each point (from what i remember) we spent a week cleaning /renewing and just propping the graves of those voiceless people, It hurt alot, reading the death ages, standing at the edge of what was once a mass grave,, Call me a pusy but something like that should never ever happen again. |

Call me a pusy but something like that should never ever happen again. ![]() These places were truly horrible. Through globalisation I don't think something like this could ever happen again. Sure we have some rogue nations still on the planet, though they will never get anywhere. So overall I guess I have a little faith that humanity is making its way forward, and those nations that choose to be secular from the world it's only a matter of time before their leaders die and that pressures from the outside make their nations slowly turn. |

Although Germany does seem to be different to many countries that have committed genocide, in that they have actually owned up to it. Turkey committed genocide on a similar scale in WW1, but they are trying to rewrite their history to ignore it. The same goes for Japan and the atrocities they committed in WW2 to the Chinese.
