concentration camp for serbian childrens

description: "Labour" camps as concentration camps were called by ustash are places of eerie, martyrdomous death. It is known that in Jasenovac they made embankments along the Sava River from corpses. Jasenovac camp (1941-1945) is the most monstrous concentration camp in the Balkans, and by the committed atrocities and methods of torture people are among the most terrible in all then occupied Europe. Even 1171 catholic priests killed serbian elders, women and children, cooperated with ustashes or provided them with significant assistance. Among them, 27 franciscans were professors and even 108 were doctors of science. The monstrous villain, Lyubo Milos, is known to admit that more than a thousand serbs were stabbed in one night in Jasenovac. The Jasenovac camp, established in August 1941 and destroyed by ustashes in april 1945, covered an area of about 210 hectares. It was a system of camps, where, according to still revealed data, over 730 thousand serbs were killed. In Gradina alone, the largest execution site of the Jasenovac camps, over 400 thousand children, elders, men and women suffered. Many serb children were burned alive in Jasenovac. This was taken care of by construction engineer Hinko Dominik Picili, head of the labor service of the Jasenovac system camps. He joined the ustash service in 1942, becoming head of labor service at Camp III Brick factory in Jasenovac. He remained in this position until the end of 1994, when he was appointed to the position of camp chief. According to the testimonies of prisoners, he designed crematoriums from the brick kilns, where alive and murdered prisoners were burned from February to May 1942. Picili is one of the harshest ustashes of all time in Jasenovac's existence. The Jasenovac camp authorities entrusted Pitsili with the construction of two crematoria one in an old brick factory, and the other in Hradina. In a short time, Pitsili made several small ones from one brick kiln, installing partitions. The only common thing was the crematorium chimney. In each of the furnaces thus obtained, 50 adults and 100 children could be burned at once. Over 600 people were swallowed by the crematorium in one night. The door opened outward, to a tunnel, a wide lobby of incandescent hell. At first, prisoners were thrown into the furnace, who built it according to Pitsili's sketches. In a few minutes they turned to ash, and Pitsili himself remained satisfied with his monstrous project. The temperature in the Pitsili crematorium exceeded 2000 degrees. The organizer of the serb Holocaust from 1941 to 1945 lived peacefully in the Vatican, and the executioners were croats turned into catholics. The fanaticism of Paveljic and Stepinac is confirmed by numerous reports. The process of 'cleansing the Croatian nation' began with the killing of Serbian children, even infants, along with adults. Children from cradle to 14 years old were killed. The only place in all of Europe where there were special camps for children was Croatia. The Vatican, headed by Pope Pacelli (Pius XII), saw nothing wrong with the fact that the “faithful and devoted Catholic” Ante Pavelic, during the monstrous Independent State of Croatia, in the most terrible way killed one million two hundred and thirty thousand Serbian old men, women and children. The Pope also approved the “appropriation” of the aggregate property of the Serbian Orthodox Church by the Roman Catholic Church, and hundreds of Orthodox priests were killed.
