but when we came to the camp, it was immaculately kept, the lawn the trees, all were perfectly green and nice looking, and it was an odd contrast that i caught myself thinking "this is a nice looking place" And then the horros of that place were revealed as i went a long

I remember myself standing at the window where they showed posessions of people there.
a window with nothing but womens shoes
a window with nothing but glasses
etc etc
clenched fists. feeling angry to my core.


It should be mandatory to visit that place before taking elected office at national level.
