Default The Clergy In Dachau: An Insight Into How The Allies Manufactured A Death Camp Out Of A Detainment Camp For Arranged Photo Ops

The Clergy In Dachau: An Insight Into How The Allies Manufactured A Death Camp Out Of A Detainment Camp For Arranged Photo Ops

You will understand… our astonishment at the fact that, more than 10 days after greeting our [American] liberators, the 34,000 detainees of Dachau are still prisoners of the same barbed-wire fences, guarded by [American] sentinels whose orders are still to fire on anyone who attempts to escape… In the barracks that are visited every day by the international press, some men continue to stagnate, stacked in these triple-decker beds that dysentery turns into a filthy cesspool, while the lanes between the blocks continue to be lined with cadavers—135 per day…

Less than 17% of the inmates died in Dachau before, during and after World War II… Many of the priests in Dachau volunteered to alleviate the sufferings of the sick inmates any way they could. These volunteers were all contaminated by typhus, and most of them died as a result.
