All one has to do is listen to Edward R. Murrow’s first-hand accounts of what he saw at Buchenwald, keeping in mind that it was nothing compared to what happened at Auschwitz.

Auschwitz didn’t close down, it came under new ownership in 1945 and business as usual continued into the 50’s. Can you imagine what Murrow would have said if he made an unannounced visit to one of the camps our major ally in the Artic Circle like Kolyma or Vorkuta during the war? Its interesting how so much is said about the German camps but never the Bolshevik ones from 1917 through the late 50’s? There were probably thousands, but outside of the terrible Lybyanka everything is mum. Criminal were sent there, who’s only crime was they were accused by their neighbors of saying something like, “this communism isn’t working as planned”. So if we go by what Murrow said, should we not have gone into the USSR like Patton said? Why did Stalin get a pass? Millions of murdered enquiring minds want to know.
