Pregnancies and births occurred because prisoners arrived pregnant, became pregnant before deportation or, in some cases, were subjected to sexual abuse. Many pregnant women and children were murdered upon arrival; others died from deliberate starvation, disease, medical experimentation and the brutal conditions imposed by the SS. The existence of births does not erase the documented murder of approximately 1.1 million people at Auschwitz, about one million of them Jews.
Mulochy is not correcting history. He is grabbing one fact, stripping away its context and using it to minimize a Nazi extermination centre.
