Dachau Liberation: There is no Liberation
At the end of Special Report on Fox News last night, they had a brief, special item: the commemoration of the liberation of Dachau, the renowned concentration camp in Germany. Instead of my usual sadness, I felt rage, as I scanned the skeletal human beings being helped to leave the camp:
On April 27, 1945, approximately 7,000 prisoners, mostly Jews, were forced to begin a death march from Dachau to Tegernsee, far to the south. The next day, many of the SS guards abandoned the camp. On April 29, the Dachau main camp was liberated by units of the 45th Infantry after a brief battle with the camp’s remaining guards.
