Nazi gas chamber reveals grisly contents

2007 Road to Sobibor  (J. Lahitte)
As part of the world’s ongoing efforts against genocide, an archaeological excavation of Sobibor (“an infamous Nazi death camp”) has been taking place.

For the past eight years, excavators have been digging deep within the woods of what once was “German-occupied eastern Poland.”  Their efforts recently yielded the discovery of “well-preserved” gas chamber walls.

Along with this discovery came such grisly findings as “a wedding band next to the gas chambers…”  The entire site has been described
as “a mess containing human bones, human ash, glass, pieces of metal and a lot of waste.”

During the long-term course of the excavation, “personal items of the Jews who died at Sobibor” have also surfaced.  Such items include “pendants, earrings, jewelry, perfume bottles and medicine cases.”

All telling evidence that this Holocaust did indeed occur…  It is also a vivid reminder that the horrors
of genocide should be avoided at all costs.
