These images from the Holocaust are even more chilling in color

These harrowing pictures of a teenage girl awaiting her torture and death at the hands of Nazi torture specialists lay bare the tragic human toll of the Holocaust.

The gaunt face of 14-year-old prisoner Czesława Kwoka stares back through time in a haunting Auschwitz mugshot restored this year by Brazilian artist Marina Amaral.

Taken just minutes after she was beaten to within an inch of her life, the images give a human face to one of the concentration camp’s 1.1 million victims.

The absolute outrageous actions of Hitler’s Germany should have prevented Germany from ever rising as a nation again. ................................. Just Germany? What about Turkey,Russia,Cambodia,China,Japan, NK,Uganda, and God knows how many more that never get to the 6 O’clock news. Genocide is everywhere. Its part of human nature, like wars.

My heart sinks when I see this beautiful young child and think about how the jackboot cowards beat her. The world needs to see her picture and read the heartbreaking story so it never happens again.

Nazism was a dehumanized industrial killing machine, and no artist’s conception via coloring existing photographic evidence is necessary. In fact, I’d be suspicious of it. The girl in the black and white photo appears to have light colored eyes, the artist’s conception, brown. What’s that on the prison suit label that I see in the artist’s conception, a pink triangle? Does it even really look like a triangle in the original black and white photo? Not really. The people who have been skewing perceptions of the Nazi regime and the era in general were in league with them at that time. Caution is in order.

“ALL EUROPEAN LIFE DIED IN AUSCHWITZ”
by Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez(*)

I walked down the street in Barcelona, and suddenly discovered a
terrible truth – Europe died in Auschwitz.

We killed six million Jews and replaced them with 20 million Muslims. In Auschwitz we burned a culture, thought, creativity, talent. We destroyed the chosen people, truly chosen, because they produced great and wonderful people who changed the world. The contribution of this people is felt in all areas of life: science, art, international trade, and above all, as the conscience of the world.

These are the people we burned. And under the pretense of tolerance, and because we wanted to prove to ourselves that we were cured of the disease of racism, we opened our gates to 20 million Muslims, who brought us stupidity and ignorance, religious extremism and lack of tolerance, crime and poverty due to an unwillingness to work and support their families with pride.

They have turned our beautiful Spanish cities into the third world,
drowning in filth and crime. Shut up in the apartments they receive
free from the government, they plan the murder and destruction of
their naive hosts. And thus, in our misery, we have exchanged culture for fanatical hatred, creative skill for destructive skill,
intelligence for backwardness and superstition.

We have exchanged the pursuit of peace of the Jews of Europe and their talent for hoping for a better future for their children, their
determined clinging to life because life is holy, for those who pursue death, for people consumed by the desire for death for themselves and others, for our children and theirs.

What a terrible mistake was made by miserable Europe.

Hatred taken up and continued by modern muslims.

This is a concept I’ve struggled with for a long time but haven’t really come to a clear understanding of so I’m hoping to not appear even more foolish than usual.

I read in my youth Primo Levi’s book on his Auschwitz experiences and one thing he mentions is that the Nazis didn’t show hatred or anger when they mistreated or abused the prisoners. It was done with casual indifference and detachment which he found even more frightening.
My point is that use of the word hate is not merely trite, it might actually be misleading.
Now Muslims, OTOH, are definitely motivated by a visceral hatred that will cause them to destroy themselves in the attempt to harm you.

Probably adds up to nothing but I still balk at the use of the word hatred in connection to the holocaust.

Chances are that she was Polish. I had read that Hitler divided up Poland into three administrative zones. One was particularly harsh, I forget about the second, and a third was pretty lenient.

I have read volumes about the Holocaust, and I’m not sure if I read that particular book.

Germany (well other than Turkey) actually created death camps for the only reason to kill Jews and later added other minorities (undesirables). I’m only discussing Germany who in the lifetime of people in France invaded them three times. I’m talking about pure death factories for the express purpose of killing; I’m talking about Chelmno, Sobibor, Treblinka, Bergen-Belson, Dachau, Majdanek, Belzec, shootings, gas vans, etc etc etc., 1.8 million kids under the age of 18 where murdered. Please do not water down and thin this Holocaust by pointing out other countries who have done similar but nowhere near what Nazi Germany did. Genocide is not part of human nature, just people doing the will of their governments. So as far as the Holocaust, don’t go and point and say: “Hey Look! squirrel”

The photo does not reflect that she was beaten within an inch of her life.......It looks like a “before” picture.

Don’t want to see the photo. Just stopped in to offer prayers to God for all victims of such evil.

In the nazis industrialized murder methods it’s certain there were as many human emotive examples as there were murderers condoned by the state in carrying them out, from ghoulish glee to reserved indifference.

We are sooner rather than later going to have to come to a decision on how we are going to destroy islam, because if we don’t it will certainly destroy us.

There are ≈1.3 billion muslims on the planet.

Our very survival requires that we kill "n" muslims. Where n is a number between 0 and 1.3 billion. It is defined as the number necessary to kill for the remainder, 1,300,000,000-n to forswear violence as a means of religious debate.

WE don't set the value of n.

THEY set the value of n...

Ganz grosse Schade.

Probably the greatest burst of evil ever known in this world, but they will be outdone by this latest generation of bloodthirsty Jihadists with their smiling faces, innate treachery, and murderous agenda.

We've done far better than the Nazis....Planned Murderhood has killed over 52,000,000 since 1973....legally.

Kinda surpasses the Holocaust...all due respect to those who were killed by the Nazis.
