Cannot imagine the horrors suffered by innocent children,aged men and women,unwell persons etc with horrible conditions in the cattle carts.Very sad,may all those souls rest in peace below holy feet of Almighty.
So disturbing, how so many people can turn a blind eye to such cruelty. Humans can't seem think what it would be like if it was their family being treated like this.
Imagine being a rail road worker , driving there trains to death camps knowing the fate of your “cargo” so to speak , humans . Without all these railroad workers the holocaust wouldn’t have happened . So it was a collaboration effort between railroad employees and the people like Adolf eichman . I think many rail road workers didn’t want to to it . But they got paid, to support their families If they refused it would mean they were fired and possible prosecution for them , They did what they were told to do because they were paid . I don’t think all of them were nazis, they were just ordinary workers , doing their job . It was a pay check to support their family . Adolf eichman was the main architect, he got the trains moving , he told railway workers what to do . Where to stop etc . In 1944 he even stopped military transports because he had to get the trains for deportation of Hungarian Jews . But eventually fate caught up with eichman . Justice was served
Two. Just two. This is why it's so important for each of us to purpose in our hearts NOW how we're going to respond if and when our respective tyrannical governments demand of us things that we would not normally do, knowing our decision may come at a cost to us but may result in the protection of countless others. Make the decision now because in the heat of the moment when pressure is high is not the time to make difficult decisions. Be one of the two.
maybe because the Russian railways ran on a different gauge than the European gauge , and the complications caused by transferring the Jews , Roma's etc from one gauge line to another that was ONE of the reasons why the Einsatzgruppen were " entrusted " in murdering ( by bullets) so many , rather than having more of " their " victims taken directly to the death camps on Poland etc
Actually 10% is a lot when you consider in wartime there is never enough transports. Plus the coal those trains burned had to be mined and wasn't available for other industry. It figures 10% of the train crews and maintenance workers were need just to transport people to death camps. By 1942 Germany was struggling with getting enough supplies to the Russian front. The whole campaign against the Jews was stupid. Germany was short of labor throughout the war and slave labor doesn't produce as much as free labor. Those millions of people could have helped the war effort better than what the factories produced in the death camps. And most of the people sent to the camps produced nothing. They were killed within hours. So The arresting, transportation and killing factory produced nothing that benefited Germany.
No, this is incorrect - the statistic it is that the number of special Deportation trains OVERALL over several years just 10% of the average daily traffic - this is a misunderstanding on your part. Of course there were also PoW trains, troop trains, munitions trains, military supply trains etc. to keep the Reichsbahn very busy with the war effort.
I know this might seem really nit picky but when he says the reichsbag was central to 'a majority of those consumed by the holocaust", he had necessarily specified it had to he a minority. He said half of victims had to he transported, and some of those victims in close proximity to the camps were able to be transported by trucks. A majority of half is necessarily a minority. Of the total. I'm not tryna say what he was saying is wrong or that the rails were not a major component used to carry out genocide (testimony that refer to the train rides are almost as numerous as testimonies are). But I figure in the name of precision and rigor, it's worth saying that he either misspoke there or omitted information that would have otherwise changed the numbers somehow.
If what happened to the Jewish people happened to our fellow citizens of Japanese ancestry, could we still call ourselves “better than the Nazis”? I call us WORSE! 🤦🏻♀️💢🔥

Watching the footage of children mothers fathers grandparents walking towards those trucks rips my heart apart

What a great way to put it. Against the Tsunami of cowards say NO
You missed the opportunity to educate people about these two people who said no. I would like to know their names and more about what happened.
Who are the two exceptional people who sought to evade participating in sending people to their death. What happened to them in their refusal?
כול הכבוד לעבודת קודש של יד ושם !!! מה השמות של השניים שסירבו ? למה הם לא מוזכרים ?
Shocking
Thank G-d my grandparents came here before the war
I am speechless

When I saw Temple Grandins solution to humanely slaughter of herd animals, I realized this was it.
Just 2 known humane Germans
Thats a lot

I believe each deportee was charged a fare as well....the Reichsbahn profited from their "cargo"....
