POLAND-GHETTO-JEWS

People are pictured on April 11, 2013 at the Umschlagplatz ("reloading point") Monument that stands where Jews were rounded up to be taken to the Treblinka extermination camp from the Warsaw Jewish Ghetto set up in the Polish Capital by Nazi Germany in World War II. Almost nothing remains of the Warsaw ghetto the German razed after crushing an uprising, when a few hundred young Jews decided to take arms against the occupying Germans rather than give in. A year and a half after the ill-fated revolt, whose 70th anniversary is on April 19, 2013, the Nazis flattened the rest of the city after a second doomed uprising by the Polish underground.
