Reflection to Auschwitz video...

I should say that the movie was shocking to me. The documentary, most of all, basically corrected my disillusionment of concentration camps. I thought they were simply used for the Nazis to bring together the Jews and to make them work in the camps. After watching the documentary, I found that I was totally wrong, as there were about 11,000,000 Jews arrested and sentenced to death.
What surprised me the most, however, was the way some contemporary people viewed the Holocaust. There was a person who came out on the documentary and commented on how he felt about what Nazis did to the Jews. He said, surprisingly, "We don't regret for what we did to them. We regret for what we didn't do to them."
This comment, again, astounded me, because I thought everyone felt sorry about the victims of atrocity that the Nazis had committed. I probably have been assuming too many things that are far from true. This video helped me with getting rid of some premature assumption.
