The Holocaust Pt. 20 - Dachau, Buchenwald, and Bergen-Belsen

In this episode, we discuss the conditions in the western German concentration camps when they were liberated by the western Allies. These conditions must be reflected upon through the lens that the Germans intentionally overcrowded them up to 5 and 10 times their intended capacity and that the western Allies intentionally bombed the railways into these camps by which food, medicine, and even pesticides were transported. Jack also explains why he thinks that Eisenhower lied about these camps and even forged evidence. The conditions in these camps were so desperate that these lies seem justified to a degree as Eisenhower was attempting to get Congress to act immediately to save civilian lives. He then goes on to describe the specific conditions in Dachau, Buchenwald, and Bergen-Belsen and discovers some interesting facts.
