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.

The hair was used to make winter coats for the German Army. while there are still bails of hair at Auschwitz, more importantly are the ledgers showing the number of bails shipped with dates used to manufacture winter coats. What amazed me was the number of eye glasses. When you see a 10 x 18 x 8ft tall room filled with glasses is starts to show the scale of death as not everyone wears glasses. Also the detail of the records left by the Germans, they were meticulous.in record keeping. As a Pole who lost upward of 750k fellow countrymen there, it is sobering to visit.

Noobs, shills, and Tel Aviv.
This looks to be the latter. It's the way you structure your talking points.
