Oświęcim, Poland - 4/27/2012 -  On April 27, Israel {quote}Izzy{quote} Arbeiter, 87, pauses during a final visit to the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp, where he was a prisoner in 1944.  An estimated 1.1 million of the 1.3 million people who came through the camp were killed, mostly in gas chambers, although Izzy also remembers prisoners throwing themselves on the fences to die, rather than wait for the Nazis to kill them.
