Auschwitz: The evil of the Holocaust

Today, as has become of every 27th of January, the Jewish people, joined by millions of others around the world, mark the anniversary of the liberation from Auschwitz, the poster moment of the Holocaust- in which more than 6million Jews perished.

Today marks the 75th anniversary of the end of Holocaust. The memory of the heroism expressed by the people of Yahweh even in the face of the most cruel forms of death.

The continuous commemoration by the Jews is the very occasion that seeks to put continuously to memory the worst period of the Holocaust and the eventual liberation by the Soviet Union's Red Army on the 27th of January, 1945.

It was in Auschwitz that the greatest atrocity of the Nazi regime was orchestrated. Hitler had confined more than 1.3million hapless Jews in a concentration camp in the  German named Auschwitz in what was then a  Nazi-controlled Poland, forcing them to the most gruesome and inhuman form of death.

Some were suffocated in gas chambers, some were placed in transported sealed freights, and diehard survivors were put to further subjection by been worked to death.

For many, that period marked the worst kind of annihilation that has ever been visited on a single human race. It was indeed a moment of horror and deep darkness for the Jewish people and a period of guile and acerbic censure for the world's populace.

Indeed, it would be with pains and the terror of the memory of the eerie period that the Jews celebrate or more appropriately remember this period of great extermination. Such evil should never happen again.
