I am reading Polish translation of "The Match" by Harlan Coben. It says that US Army liberated Auschwitz. The Army liberated a number of Auschwitz prisoners, who survived the cruel evacuation. The camp was liberated by the Soviets, few thousands of prisoners were there. I do not know if the error exists in the original book or it is a mistranslation.

Heinrich Himmler complained that German businessman had a vested interest in keeping their Jewish forced laborers alive. Think of Oskar Schindler.
ReplyDeleteProbably Rafal/Raphael Lemkin "The enemy nation within the control of Germany must be destroyed, disintegrated, or weakened in different degrees for decades to come. [...] In this respect genocide is a new technique of occupation aimed at winning the peace even though the war itself is lost." Germany dominates Poland thanks to its Nazi predecessor. Germany is frequently perseived as a democratic country, an ally of the USA, Poland is frequently criticized.
