Auschwitz: It Horrifies. But it Should Not Surprise Anyone.
Apart from the obvious lessons from Auschwitz, is the unsettling reality that the perpetrators here were not recognizable monsters in black and white. They were also loving fathers, brothers, and sons. They were art collectors, appreciated good music and danced at weddings. They went out for movies, cared for their flower garden and cried when their dogs died. They were, in other words, regular folks. Just like you and me.
