I've had a personal request to post more history. Apparently someone found my political stuff dull.
To those without an interest, just ignore. Some of you might find this disturbing or upsetting. My interest is 20th century European history, particularly WW II/Holocaust.
These series of posts will focus on the Holocaust. This term is generic for the destruction of the European Jews during WW II, primarily during the time period between 1941 until late 1944. By the end of 1944 the "organized" period ended though isolated incidents
continued until the end of the war. There were isolated incidents of killings between 1939-1941 and large numbers of Polish Jews died due to conditions in ghettos but those were not necessarily deliberate (though the Germans did nothing to alleviate conditions in ghettos).
