like camera cell phones that can transmit what's going on as it happens, not to mention blogs and websites.

I was just a kid, but my neighbor and playmate's family, who were Jewish, didn't know and I remember when they learned about it how shocked and devastated they were. Many Jewish families, who had lost track of relatives during the Nazi occupations and the war, really thought that their relatives would be found if still alive. They assumed the horrors of war would claim many of them but they were so shocked when they learned about what had really happened to them because although they knew things were bad under the Nazis, they didn't know how awful it was.
