Anytime I see anything related to this war, I feel ashamed for the human race. The cruelty we are able to execute on someone else can't be described with words.
My grandma never talks about the war. When I ask she says she doesn't remember it, but I know she does. The only thing she mentioned once was that there were a few Jewish families in our town and they were taken away at some point. Nobody came back...
Even though there is nobody on these pictures, they are so powerful. They even tell a story. I understand how excited you were when you got to hear that there were photos from the concentration camp. I would probably not go through them as I wouldn't know what to expect..
Thank you for sharing such a personal post (in a way)! Congratulations on the curie vote!
Its really sad what everyone did and is still doing to eachother. I can imagine the mindset, it’s easy to influence 18year olds in the army I was one. Just sad the people we put in power are still the same types. No care for humanity only profits. The generation that ruled after that war did more damage to the earth than all other generations combined. And now their children are in power with no sign of giving up.
My husband was also in army when he was 18. Luckily he realized it was not for him after 2 years. I agree with you that they caused a lot of damage. All those people remain at top position or hide somewhere and live comfortably. Look at the war in Yugoslavia. How long did it take to catch those leaders? And how many of them faced the justice? And if they did, all of the sudden they got very 'sick' and spend rest of their lives comfortably somewhere in a clinic.. it's sad, but with power and money you never lose..
