The road to the Red Cross Concentration Camp is caked in frozen mud etched with tire tracks and cracking puddles. A dog jogs ahead to dig holes in the camp’s yard. The barbed-wire fence lies in a decrepit heap next to the ticket office branded with a faded swastika and, in thick capital letters, “WACHE SS”.
Also, there’s also a high school next door.
“Many tourists ask, ‘Oh, is this also part of the camp?’ No, it’s just a school,” explains our guide, Aleksandra Zdravkovic. She works at the tourism office of Nis, a quiet city of 190,000 in southern Serbia, and occasionally offers free walking tours. Since only my wife and I showed up to brave the sub-zero temperatures on this early January morning, we scored a private tour, which includes the camp.
I ask Zdravkovic why communists built so many schools next to former camps — Jasenovac, in Croatia, is the same way. “I do not know for sure,” she replied, “but I think it was to show children: ‘Look what they did to us!’”
She laughs and shrugs, but Zdravkovic’s upbeat demeanour belies the remarkably depressing parts of Serbian history that comprise her city’s most popular tourist attractions. There’s Skull Tower, the ruins of a warning sign built by Ottoman invaders using the decapitated and skinned skulls of their dead Serbian enemies; Nis fortress, a longstanding battleground surrounded by monuments to multiple liberations that often ended in war and more subsequent occupations; and the Red Cross Concentration Camp, a rare example of a neatly preserved Nazi death camp.
Nazis destroyed their paper records here before the war ended, but experts believe around 30,000 partisans, Serbs, Romani and Jews passed through the camp...

Absolutely.
Yes.
Well, there are a probably 200 million reasons they had best rethink that crap.
Ping.
Democrats never paid for war crimes, they embraced Marxism to avoid it and to prepare for more war crimes.
The devil works that way: either you get punished by God or you make me your god. Political correctness and political parties are the refuge of scoundrels.
They won't. They think they're gods. No good can come of such delusion.
They may “think they are God”, but God knows they are not.
And We the People by and large know they are not too. 1/2 of we the people will end the boxcar crap quick.

Nis, the birthplace of Constantine
Thanks fieldmarshaldj.
All I have in my genealogy is his birthdate, but that's probably because I didn't study the man. However, I will change that, and also add his birthplace.
Thanks!
