General Eisenhower, Supreme Allied Commander, had the death camps exhaustively photographed and documented so that there would be no possibility of denial.

How did he do that, since all of the extermination camps were under Soviet control.

I ask PAR35 are you claiming that the death camps were not extensively photographed? Or that the Nazi death camps did NOT kill millions of innocent people?

The "extermination camps," or "death camps" were all in eastern Poland, except for Auschwitz, which was in southwestern Poland. All of them were liberated by the Soviets, although several of them had been shut down and destroyed by the Nazis long before the Soviets arrived.

(The term "death camp" is a bit of a misnomer, except for Auschwitz. In the rest of the "death camps," almost nobody "camped" there; they were industrial murder mills which killed people almost as fast as they arrived.)

The camps Eisenhower liberated were KzL's (concentration camps) in Germany. A lot of people died in those camps due to starvation, disease, abuse, etc., but they were not built for the sole purpose of killing people. They were built, mostly long before the Wannsee Conference, to imprison and intimidate Hitler's political enemies.
