75 Years After Auschwitz Liberation, Survivors Urge World To Remember
https://www.npr.org/2020/01/27/798480937/75-years-after-auschwitz-liberation-survivors-urge-world-to-remember
Today, Auschwitz is a museum recalling the evil that humans are capable of inflicting on each other. Tour groups quietly shuffle from an exhibit holding 2 tons of hair shaved from the victims of the gas chambers to the gallows where the former commandant of Auschwitz was hanged after he was tried by a military tribunal in 1947.
Pawel Sawicki, a guide at the museum, has seen thousands of tourists come from all over the world. "Sometimes I think that when they leave a candle or a stone or they put the flower or they say a prayer and they leave the memorial, and they go back to their lives, they think: 'Our job is done. We remembered,' " he says. "But I think there should be a next step. People should look at this place and think about our moral responsibility.

Why would you keep two tons of hair around. Imagine having to shave the heads of hot sweaty prisoners and to people in charge say, hey don't dump the hair on the fields or burn it in one of our 200 incinerators. Perhaps we can find a spare room to store this LICE INFESTED (why do you think they saved their heads in the first place?) hair INSIDE the building with us / them? Why?
Literally if they had done anything expect store it inside the hair would be bleached and blown away or composted in the soil.
Also: My barber sweeps up hair every night. Is he a mass murderer?

When things collapsed there shouldn't have been hair lying around.
However, if I was an efficient task master than deloused hair would be good for prisoner seats and pillows.

The hair was shaved before delousing.

This is an abhorrent thought.

I think the easiest way for them to dispose of the hair at the camps would be to... burn it... They had the facilities after all, and burning trash as much more common back then.
lol

nah, they were too busy burning the 6 gorillion bodies, no time to burn anything else.

Being real and it didn't happen are two different things
25612865? ago
The difference is scientists are allowed to do research on the Dinosaurs

The hair was most likely brought in for the exhibit, and had nothing to do with the people who were in the camp.

Like the holes in the roof ADDED LATER that they claim were just to "restore" the original holes they "dropped gas through".

Aren't we lucky that all the Communists and ANTIFA and degenerate bastards of the Frankfurt school of Jewish Psychopathology managed to make it out of Germany before the "gas chambers" started.
All the people who helped create Hitler in German managed to escape to the USA and start a new home here in the land of the free.
We are a Judeo Christian Nation after all, the term Judeo Christian means the USA was founded by Pharisees who believe in the absolute racists lies of the Babylonian Talmud and people who hate Jesus Christ. The portion Christian part that founded this country has let this happen.

Judeo-Muslim is more accurate than Judeo-Christian, if you want to look at the actual beliefs and practices.

But, I also seen piles of glasses, also I seen shoes, lots of them, this was at the Smithsonian. You feel me?
25613476? ago
Yes, Hitler secretly kept some jews at the Smithsonian.
Little known fact.

I want to feel you baby, I like how you think. You feel me?

Or, they did save it just for the traumatic effect it can have.
