More pictures.

Auschwitz was... something else. Impossibly brutal. Incredibly haunting.

I don't have the words to do it justice. I don't think anyone does. Being there, seeing -- what there's left to see...

It's a kick in the gut. As real, and as painful, as a physical impact.

And even that doesn't do it justice, either.
