Di Polandia,misalnya kamp konsentrasi seperti Auswitz (Oswieczim) dan Stutthof (Sztutowo) dimasukan dalam daftar untuk turis berkunjung, maksudnya agar tidak terulang lagi kebiadaban yang pernah dilakukan pada masa lalu. Bukankah NKRI negara beragama, apakah agama yang dianut membolehkan umatnya melakukan kebiadaban?
