How could the men running Auschwitz & other camps live with themselves?

It absolutely disgusts me how 6,000,000 Jewish men, women, and children can be ruthlessly destroyed. Those children could have grown right beside "mommy" and "daddy" becoming doctors, architects or anything and would have made our world a better place. I guess it is clear to say Adolf Hitler was the Worst SCUMBAG to ever walk the surface of this planet.
 
Well you're right in many ways. However, no one but those men (and women mind you) can answer your question.

I suppose some of them were brainwashed as they propagandized and indoctrinated little children. I suppose many of them were delusional believing they were doing the world a favor. Others (i'm referring mainly to those that lived near the camps and admitted to not knowing what was going on) thought it was better to not say anything out of fear (example: Buchenwald).

But to truly answer that question, you'd have to ask them.
Maybe you'd like the movie "The Reader" or "Schindlers List" or "The Pianist"
 
They were taught that they were members of the "Master Race" and that all others were genetically inferior. Their leader was a mad man who infected his country with his madness. It was a shameful period of history.
 
How can doctors , who take an oath to save lives, give a late term abortion, and see a viable infant destroyed because it is inconvenient.
 
man yo fthe german consentration officers were witness the turks and the armenian genocide at a young age becoming hitlers inner circle kinda gusy and learning about how to kill people, they were also anti-semetic(hate jews) i think they could care less whether they died or not, some didnt have any choice to do it, man walks up to and says shoot that jew or i shoot you, you could be 16 year old german soldier, i think youd do it.
 
Well, most of the organizers had probably already been brainwashed by the Nazi education and propaganda system. Also, you have to understand the utter hatred the Jews had inspired in Germany. Many Germans felt anger at how WW1 had ended with an utter lost. After all, they didn't seem like losing, and had to pay tonnes of money to everybody, which caused rampant inflation. Hitler just tapped into that anger, making the Jews scapegoats. That practice still exists today. Every time something bad happens like mass unemployment or something, there will always be someone who'll say, "Blame it on the immigrants."

The Holocaust was horrible, and should never be repeated. But since Adolf Hitler, there have been genocides by people who were just as evil. Sure, maybe they didn't have the smae amount of deaths attributed to them because of their limited resources, but they still killed. And you just can't lay everything on Adolf, also blame the people who carried out the executions, who actually did the Holocaust. They were just as big scumbags.
 
Religion and ideology can ruin otherwise normal thinking people when they think they need some invisible friend to validate their lives.

He is an awful man, and I don't understand why Christians in America think that Obama is like Hitler. Just because of raised taxes and healthcare. Like it or not, that's just not a reason to compare Obama to Hitler. I don't see concentration camps of Christians lined up to get baked in ovens. I can't believe how loosely they use that terminology. Fear tactics for the win.
