Nice elaborate story, but where is the proof? Soap and lampshades? Those were nice attempts to defraud the sympathetic public. After doing a bit of detailed research, my conclusion: yes a bunch of executions (primarily shootings/hangings) but by far most deaths were due to starvation, disease, natural causes. Massive gassings, come-on. Do you believe that live persons were really thrown in ovens? Common sense says no.
No matter what one thinks of nazi camps, they served a purpose similar (though admittedly not quite) like those in US for a number of Jap.(in particular)/Germ./Ital.-Amer. citizens: Am. govt had concerns that some would be involved in espionage, etc. The unfortunate thing in case of Nazi camps, when food and supplies were in short supply - well, the first to suffer are prisoners. |
