My gut feelings and expressions about what I've learned of WWII concentration camps.

Bloody, thirsty, broken cross

starve them, gas them, burn them Jews!

Death, sweet peace at last.

This picture is a swastica, an infamous symbol which has now become a symbol of hatred, destruction, and death, associated with the Nazis.
Check this out: Photographs from Belsen Concentration Camp: Victims, Perpetrators, Liberators.
Torutured to death, made to work without food, beaten, abused, and seemingly forgotten, the Jews were massacred by the thousands. Seeing their pictures, my mouth dropped open, my insides froze. I literally could have spewed at the thought that those are real people whose bodies I am seeing so emaciated.
Skeletons. Nothing but bones with souls.

I'd like to quote my friend, Micah, who is right now in Germany on a service mission:

Well said. We humans are amazing creations, capable of both great horror and great good. But, oh, the horror!
I am almost speechless with disgust and horror.
