- TREBLINKA - The Nazi Death CampSimone de Beauvoir's PREFACE begins : 'Why did the Jews allow themselves to be led to the slaughter-house like sheep?' the young sabras of Israel asked each other indignantly at the time of the Eichmann trial. In Europe too, many Jews of the younger generation who had not known Nazism asked the same question. The fact is that in the world of concentration camps all peoples behaved identically : a conditioning process carefully worked out by the SS assured the submission of the condemned.
