I can't imagine leaving that little girl behind because I had to go to work detail. I can't imagine knowing she ended up in a Gas Chamber before I probably arrived at my work detail! The 1 woman was right when she said "Why did the Nazi's go insane?" This was hatred mixed with insanity. This was pure criminal insanity! I can't even imagine any of this!

Agree totally, Thomas. No one with a shred of humanity could take part in such wanton inhumanity to a fellow person. They have to be suffering from some abhorrent psychological condition. We went to an exhibition at Imperial War Museum , London of the Camps...It was grim. Visitors were very quiet, noticeably so, compared to similar sized exhibitions. Seeing a small proportion of the items owned by the interned people was deeply poignant. Tin cups bashed beyond belief, tiny medicine bottles, and shoes. A pair of red shoes, belonging to a delicate footed young woman, probably a teenager..Someone of Anne Frank's age, perhaps?.. Sadly hatred and ''Othering'' takes place today. Religious/racial/political differences...Do we ever learn {As a society} from past atrocities? It appears not.

No. While it's comforting to think we can disassociate ourselves from the type of people who could commit such terrors by using such terms as "evil" "possessed" "demonic", they were simply human with all the same human frailties and dark parts of the soul where survival at all costs is at the forefront of all considerations. Were they great people? Hell no but removing the fact that they were human also removes them a step further from being something from which we can learn. If we can't or won't learn from human atrocities - by not admitting that there was nothing of the supernatural involved nor was there anything genetically abnormal (for the most part) about Nazi's then how on earth can we learn enough to NOT have it happen again?

I started to cry within the first five seconds itself. The horrors, inhumanity, fear, madness, brutality, and the evilness of everyday life that millions of innocent Jews had to face at the hands of these inhumane and brutal murderers are simply unimaginable. No one ever could have thought before Auschwitz that humans would stoop to such extreme levels just to kill other humans. Getting up at 4 am, standing in the cold without clothes until 4 pm and then running without clothes in ice cold chillness on snow is horrifying to even think of. I can't even imagine how desperately many innocent Jews would have screamed, cried, and clawed at the gas chamber walls while being exposed to sarin gas . I can't even think of how those murderers could go back to their families at the end of the day, and eat and sleep peacefully as if they were doing some noble job. I am even more shocked that literally the rest of the world was just sitting back and watching doing nothing like Auschwitz was some type of comedy show. My sincere condolences go out to all the families who lost their loved ones in Auschwitz and my sincere prayers go to all the innocent Jews who lost their lives in Auschwitz. Rest In Peace.
