    Why should he visit Auschwitz?

    I've never been to the moon, but I believe that we landed there and that men walked on the moon. You don't need to see something to believe it. You need to be educated. I think it might be better if this man met with some of the many people who had firsthand experience with the holocaust. There are still survivors and soldiers who rescued them who are alive, and many of them speak German.
