Freeing people fron concentration camps was not a concern for the Allies? How could it have been when the first camps were being discovered a few months before wars end? Once these camps were found, most of the surrounding city population did not know about them when the Allies had them come to the camps to clean up what was left behind. So, it was not really a justification for all that happened, only part of at in hindsight and at wars end because these camps were not known until the last days. |
Not strictly true AV, in 43 or 44 when American bombers were sent to bomb the factory plants at Auschwitz they had order not to bomb the camps. What info was told to the bomb crew I don't know, but we buit up inteligence map of the Auschwitz consentration camp and Birkenau extermination camp from those who escaped and photo rekons.
Germany armed forces had to be halted first and that meant bombing there industries to speed up the fall of Germany.
