The Auschwitz Center in Poland said something similar last week (via a statement not Twitter.)[/quote]
What exactly did they say?[/quote]

The Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum in Poland issued a statement on Monday amid an ongoing debate between U.S. lawmakers over whether the Holocaust offers lessons for contemporary events such as those at the U.S.-Mexico border.

"When we look at Auschwitz we see the end of the process," the museum said in a tweet on Monday afternoon.

"It's important to remember that the Holocaust actually did not start from gas chambers," the museum continued. "This hatred gradually developed from words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence."

I’m very surprised they would comment on the US, and not on the growing anti-immigrant sentiment right now in Germany, Austria, Italy etc. [/quote]

Do you follow them? What is your basis for saying they never comment on the growing anti-immigrant sentiment in Europe?  Based on nothing, obviously. You just pulled it out of your @ss.

Here in fact is a facebook post from November 28, which comments on (and linked to) the CNN poll about anti-semitism in Europe:

[quote]"The results of the poll show that there is a need of including the elements concerning the knowledge about the Holocaust not only into the teaching of history but also into the curricula of other subjects on different stages of education. It must be analyzed also while dealing with contemporary challenges during the classes of ethics, religion, political sciences, media or civic education.

The antisemitic or xenophobic ideologies that in the past led to the human catastrophe of Auschwitz, seem not to be erased from our lives today. They still poison people’s minds and influence our contemporary attitudes in social, political, ethical, and other aspects."

Auschwitz Memorial director, dr Piotr M. A. Cywi?ski,

See the CNN poll below.[/quote]

Museums that are in the business of remembrance and education about atrocities speak up when they see similar situations arising, no matter where they are in the world.  Start following the US Holocaust Museum and you'll see that's true.[/quote]
