When I think of these times, I think of all those people herded off those camp trains at night. The freezing weather, the guard dogs snarling, glareing flood lights, no food or water, and whips being used.. After they were taken off to their doom, the long lines of feces on the ground where they stood moments before..They were so frightened they relieved themselves. RIP to all these innocent people.
The Germans started the air war with their Stuka Dive Bombers when they invaded Poland with their Blitzkrieg tactics. And they continued their air assault over the city of London making every attempt to destroy it, (paving the way for an invasion of London)and killing thousands of people.So, the Germans can take full responsibility for being the people that created a holocaust in the air and on the ground.
@altmarkmaik This isnt about democracy. Did you forget that Hitler had been elected in the first place? In democratic elections? No, the reason for this crap is the character of the Germans. And it didnt change one bit since then.
I always wondered how in the hell could Germans say they didn't know. I mean I unfortunately know what a(one) dead body smells like, but thousands of dead bodies along with the smoke from the ovens. The stench of those camps must have reached for miles around. Shame on Germant forever!
Ofcourse my grandparents and so know it. They all know that the nazis were killing jews and million of people in there camps but they were afrait to say that. ..and sorry my english isn't very good.
@Ellie5621: The Holocaust really happened and to the extent claimed by the Jews. It was a horrible thing which must never happen again. Yes, shame on that generation of Germans forever but you can't blame those who were way too young or those who weren't born until after the war was over. I'm glad this man did what he did so those who deny the Holocaust have no excuse. Shame on them forever.
es war schon eine unbeschreiblich schlimme Zeit, für die das mit ansehen mussten und nichts dagegen tun konnten.......danke an die, die Deutschland und gardelegen von diesem Holocoust befreiten ....
Superb to hear this man! Great historical value! You can not imagine how it felt when you walked into a camp like that I guess! That's the worse crime of the Nazi's.

Hello! I live near the crime scene in the former GDR.
Something like this must never be forgotten.
About 1,000 people were burned alive and the perpetrators were never caught or could in the old Federal Republic of Germany, see slip.
The GDR was a dictatorship, undemocratic and could not travel freely but such criminals were almost always unmasked and condemned.
I do not want DDR again but the old West Germany was not democratic.
Greetings, Mike

Oh comical, its the Germans fault.
Like the U.S. bombing of Germany was anything but a holocaust as well.
