what is great about germany compared to other countries is that instead of burying their past they have accepted it and done a lot to change the attrocities of not so long ago. keeping up the camps in germany and poland shows a lot about a country who can say, this is who we were but not who we are. there are always going to be people that use things like that for other purposes, but most neo nazis try to deny the holocaust.
but the fact that they remain up forever remind us of what humanity can and will be. its too bad that other countries dont admit their faults as much as germany, for example turkey with the armenian holocaust a few years prior. or even worst and probably the saddest tis the appartheid in israel that although is not a holocaust, feels very much like germany in the early 30's, or something along those lines. and i hope that when the occupation ends, whenever that will be, we will be a strong as germany is try to do whatever we can to correct the wrongs of our past.
