I have watched many of the videos on the Yad Vashem channel; each one as sad and tragic as the other. All leave me with complete and utter admiration for the people who were forced to endure the very worst acts of vile inhumanity but who nonetheless, relive and retell their stories in the hope that their testimony will help prevent the same depravities being repeated in the future. A question I keep asking myself is how was this able to happen? This was not merely the work of one vile psychopath and a few like-minded friends. It is now known that thousands facilitated this abhorrent behaviour, on an almost unimaginable scale. Does Yad Vesham have a recommended library list of titles it endorses in order to help people try to understand better how what happened came to pass?

It leaves you wondering why the 50 men were selected and separated. I wonder how he survived.
