What are some comment's from survivor's that where from the Holocaust?
I once spoke with a Holocaust Survivor who was 12 years old at the time. She told me that she had been in Auschwitz and had the marks on her arm to prove it. When I asked her how she survived the ordeal she told me that she had survived only because of her age. When the Russian Armies came through, anyone still alive in a Nazi Concentration Camp over the age of 20 was believed to be a Nazi Sympathizer and was put to death. That is something you will not read in the History books.

What theories help explain why the world did not intervene to prevent the Holocaust?
Key reasons include these:
- 'The world' was at war; communications were severely disrupted and movement was restricted. There was no question of sending in observers to find out 'what was really going on'.
- At first the British and U.S. governments were skeptical about the reports of genocide that they received.
- The Holocaust took place in areas that were largely inaccessible to the Allies, for example, in Nazi occupied Poland.
- The Allies' overriding objective was to win the war, and intervening to stop the Holocaust or other atrocities was seen as a distraction.
In other words, I don't any theory is need to explain the Allies' position on this.

About six million Jews were killed by the Nazis - mostly between June 1941 and May 1945. Many were killed in mass open-air shootings, especially in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus Latvia and Lithuania. Many were starved to death in the ghettos that the Nazis established in Poland and elsewhere. The number killed in extermination camps is lower than six million.
