80 Years ago the Soviet army liberated Auschwitz and saved the prisoners that were still alive. The Auschwitz Memorial helps us to remember that the death camps of the Nazis were not the beginning of a process, but the product of a long strategy.
The existence of the camp was no secret to the allies. But against the outspoken will of the organised prisoners nether the gas chambers of Auschwitz not the train tracks to the camp were ever bombed.
Now we live in an age that provides Nazis with powerful new tools.
