Testimony Reaction
When I saw the testimony of George Gottlieb, I wanted to kill Hitler even though he's already dead. I honestly don't even know what to say. Because to hear someone tell the story is something but to hear someone who was in the story and suffered during the story tell us about it, is completely another thing. I think that that testimony even made me look at life in a different way because we are so fortunate to not be them. It very well could have been me who was taken to a concentration camp if I wasn't born the year I was born in because even though I am not Jewish, they did take many non-Jewish people to concentration and extermination camps. I imagine what life is like for these survivors and how George Gottlieb, for example, can live everyday replaying the last time he saw his mom in his head and just going through all that emotional pain. I really don't understand how Germans did nothing to stop this. How they didn't take their places for a second and think about how horrible things were and not feel any sympathy towards them. Not all of them but some. This testimony really made WWII a very emotional but interesting topic.
