The Forgotten Concentration Camps

Everyone knows about the fascist concentration camps that the German Nazis were creating in the 30s and 40s of the 20th century. These were death camps, where Jews, Gypsies, political criminals, prisoners of war and ordinary people were kept, who in general were not to blame for anything. The goal of these camps was to destroy as many people as possible. Various means were used for this: hunger, cold, overwork, shootings, poison gas and much more. Thinking and writing about all this is scary. The only consolation, so to speak, is that the crimes of the Nazis were condemned at the Nuremberg trial.
However, it should be noted that the concentration camps are not the invention of the Hitlerites, and they did not cease to exist after the defeat of the German fascists. It is known that in the 19th century the concentration camps were used by the colonial countries to imprison, torment and destroy the local population who did not want to be slaves and struggled for freedom. There were concentration camps and long before the 19th century. Their history goes back centuries. In the 20th century, this infernal invention became widespread on all continents, including in the most "democratic" state - in the United States. Of course, there were no gas chambers and crematoria in the US, but there were plenty of tortures and tortures. In general, in the 20th century there were several tens of thousands of concalis in the world, and the overwhelming majority of them were in the USSR.
In the USSR, concentration camps appeared immediately after the Bolsheviks seized power. The idea of concentration camps was very close to the Communists. They turned the whole country, in fact, into a huge concentration camp. "Free" people lived in their mass is no better than the prisoners of the Red concentration camps. Soviet concentration camps were the main economic units of the state. They were located in vast territories, and contained in each of them hundreds of thousands and millions of prisoners. The administration of concentration camps was the supreme authority in those territories on which they were located. These camps had a very specific direction - to destroy as many people as possible. That is, these were the death camps. The Communists sought to exterminate all those who did not like their power. And since the power of the Communists did not like absolutely anyone, there was no shortage of prisoners either. Geography of location - the entire country: from the extreme north, to the hot south, from the western borders to the Far East. The forces of prisoners of concentration camps built the largest canals, such as the White Sea-Baltic, all major railways and industrial enterprises, dams and power stations. The death rate of people was so high that under each sleeper of any railway lies several people. The quality of the objects constructed in this way was, of course, extremely low. They often began to fall apart before they were completely built. However, everything that the Communists had was of the same low quality. For, servitude, slave labor doomed to a slow death of people could not produce anything good in principle.
As all this was - you can read here: http://konclager-rus.tk. The author of this book is himself a prisoner of a Soviet concentration camp, but he managed to miraculously escape from the camp directly abroad. Therefore, he survived, and was able to tell the whole world about these greatest atrocities and crimes. What is Hitler and his henchmen there? The Communists killed many more people, and they did it much longer, much more cruelly and cynically.
This should never happen again! And that this never happened again, you need to read such books, know and remember everything that happened. If you have a weak heart and nerves, then you better refrain from reading this book. What is described there is so scary that it just does not fit in your head!
