27 January - Holocaust Memorial Day

On 27 January 1945, the concentration camp at Auschwitz was liberated by Russian forces. In its time, more than 1 million people were murdered there on an industrial scale, and with mathematical precision. Why? Because they did not conform to one man's delusional ideas of what a human being should be. Other concentration camps existed in occupied Europe, in which similar atrocities were committed.

Some people deny that this ever happened. To do so is a criminal offence.

We should remember - to prevent it ever happening again.
