Here is good documentary from the History Channel on Reichskristallnacht, the night of broken glass. On November 9--10 November 1938, all across Germany Jewish businesses were ransacked, synagogues burned down, Jews sent to concentration camps and murdered. It was the first big anti-Semitic event in Germany before the war started. Here the events leading up to it are chroncled as well. The most hard-hitting quote is when it is said that this marked the end of German Jewry. Very depressing...
What is the biggest pity (from a historical study point not the actual event) is that there are no people who belonged to the Nazi party and were involved in orchestrating the Holocaust or committed these crimes who will tell their story hence incriminating themselves. If Eichmann had told his true story so much may have been learned.
