As the world equivocates on what to do about the raving lunatic that is the current President of Iran, No More Turning Left looks back at history via a Reuters’ article and reminds us of what possibly awaits if Ahmadinejad’s dream of acquiring nuclear weapons is realized.
BAD AROLSEN, Germany (Reuters) – The death register from the Mauthausen concentration camp contains rows of neatly printed names. The times of execution are each two minutes apart. The date is April 20, 1942 — Adolf Hitler’s 53rd birthday.
“Every second minute there is another prisoner and this goes on for pages,” says Udo Jost, an archivist at the International Tracing Service (ITS) which looks after the world’s biggest collection of documents from World War Two.
“They shot 300 prisoners for Hitler’s birthday present: not just shot but then registered them by name.”
Millions of documents, like this register from the camp near Linz in Austria, sit in the cellars of a converted hotel in the central German town of Bad Arolsen, testament to the chillingly efficient bureaucracy of the Nazi regime.
Some 17 million people are named in the documents — those who were murdered, those who survived the concentration camps and then the millions who were forced to work on farms and in factories under Hitler’s employment policies.
I can only imagine the horrors that Mahmoud has planned for Jews and Westerners in the darkness that is his soul. I hope that our leaders understand that we can’t afford to actually find out. Like with Europe in the ’30s & ’40s we cannot turn a blind eye to this self-professed threat — the cost would be far too great! (db)
