German Chancellor Angela Merkel voiced a feeling of “deep shame” during her first-ever visit on Friday to the hallowed grounds of the former Nazi German death camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau, where Adolf Hitler’s regime murdered more than a million people.
Merkel noted that her visit comes amid rising anti-Semitism and historical revisionism and vowed that Germany would not tolerate anti-Semitism. She said Germany remains committed to remembering the crimes that it committed against Jews, Poles, Roma and Sinti, homosexuals and others.
Speaking to a gathering that included former Auschwitz inmates, she said she felt “deep shame in the face of the barbaric crimes committed by Germans here.”
“Nothing can bring back the people who were murdered here. Nothing can reverse the unprecedented crimes committed here. These crimes are and will remain part of German history and this history must be told over and over again,” she said.
She called such responsibility a key element in German national identity today.

Then why is she still siding with the muzzies? Destroyer of Europe.
Yet she opens Germany’s doors wide to those who would repeat the Holocaust atrocities if they had the chance.
“Nothing can bring back the people who were murdered here. Nothing can reverse the unprecedented crimes committed here. These crimes are and will remain part of German history and this history must be told over and over again,” she said.
And Ms Muggle nothing will bring back the people murdered by your former employers: the East German Stasi
Germany should make it a mandatory requirement for any Chancellor elect to have visited Auschwitz for a week minimum...plus read Allie Weis’ book Night and Victor Frankl’s book Man’s Search For Meaning.
Why? Money
Yes. True that.
“Yet she opens Germany’s doors wide to those who would repeat the Holocaust atrocities if they had the chance.”
Yes. And if one points this out to a liberal they may become furious.
They think letting these anti-Semites in is somehow atoning for the Holocaust.
Getting rid of anti-semitism by importing millions of rabid anti-Semites. Hitler would be proud.
I will never forgive the Germans or trust them.
1st visit after all this time? Was it, like, on her bucket list?
When the muzzies you let in take over, you’ll just be like Hindenburg...if you live.
Disgusting.
Ellie Weisel.
I’m sure they repeat it daily. For the moment it’s scalar. Once they develop the numbers, you will see Hitler’s partners, the islamo nazis, openly display their disdain for jews and infidels.
They are not in Europe to integrate,
They are there to dominate.
That is islam.
FOURTEEN YEARS it took for her to visit??? Imagine if President Trump were in office that long (we can fantasize, right?) and then finally visited Arlington Cemetary . . . the media coverage?
What took her so long?
I don’t get “shame” over the actions of other people, which one condemns. Shame is for one’s own actions. Guilt is not inherited, and it is not shared by virtue of being in the country with the same name as the one that perpetrated the holocaust.
I agree. If Auschwitz doesn’t turn your stomach, nothing will. Especially the room full of 30,000 pair of children’s shoes from executed children.
She probably would like to complete that sentence, “Shame .......Adolf didn’t gas them all”.
