So let me get this straight, you are saying that Jasenovac is not a death camp because technically it "let people go"?

Please don't start that crap again because as a Catholic you should not be playing games with moral relativism by whitewashing Croat crimes with technicalities. I have dead relatives as a result of Jasenovac that would disagree with you so put a sock in it.

Oh please spare me your "my family member died in Jasenovac" crap. A tragedy is a tragedy is a tragedy whether that person was killed by Ustashi in Jasenovac, by Partisans in the town square, or by Chetniks in the hills.

Jasenovac was a concentration camp complex in which there were prison camps, labour camps, and in which executions of people innocent of crimes and guilty of crimes did take place.

Labelling it a "death camp" makes it seem that the purpose of the camp was wholly one of executions when the facts simply show that it wasn't the case.

It's akin to how Brezovo Polje was mislabeled as a "rape camp" simply because some rapes by Serbs of Muslim women took place there when it fact the camp was simply a prison camp with some random internees.

You guys don't like it when media exaggerates about Serbs, so therefore you should understand why I don't like it when it happens to my people.
