A good movie is "The Pianist" (sp).

The Natzi' wern't the only group of people doing that kind of sick thing. There was that horrid Rewanda slaying. That was some sick shat as well.. sure there was no ovens, poisons.. but they were killed/cut/beaten like animals, which is = as sick.

Then there was the North Americans killing & raping the indians.

Pretty much all cultures have done some sick shat to other cultures.

The book I was/am reading is I have Lived A Thousand Years. It's really good, but soooooooo sad! I'm not reading it now, we're doinga christmascarl now, but I want to finish it. *shudder* I just found out about the crematoriums(sp?) AND the tattooing, AND decimation. I never wanted to learn those things, and I made the mistake of researching the Holocaust. If you ever do searchit, the Holocaust online archives are a great place, but they have SICKENING pictures.

These poor people were regularly called names that are in german but I had them translated and mean horrible things, yu know what I mean

it sickensme to even think that humans, HUMANS LIKE US could whip people and starve them and shoot them and all sorts of things without even hesitating...sad...

In terms of sheer body count, the Nazis were pikers.

Stalin killed between 20 and 40 million by starvation.

Mao's "Great leap forward" or whatever you care to call his slaughter, killed between 60 and 100 million Chinese, and no one is really sure.

That having been said.......

I've been to a concentration camp site. While in Germany for an exercise, I visited Bergen-Belsen, a site where Jews and Russians were killed wholesale.. It is without question the eeriest place I have ever been. While there, I was stunned by the absolute silence. The only sound was the wind in the trees. No birds made a sound, nothing. It was as if nature had abandoned the site with the exception of plants.

No one on the grounds was saying anything. Just walking through, aghast at the graves, which simply had the number of corpses the allies THOUGHT were buried in them. 20,000, 40,000. A monument to human stupidity and cruelty.
