Why were those trains allowed to roll unhindered into Poland? Why were the tracks leading to Birkenau never bombed? I have put these questions to American presidents and generals and to high-ranking Soviet officers. Since Moscow and Washington knew what the killers were doing in the death camps, why was nothing done at least to slow down their “production”? That not a single Allied military aircraft ever tried to destroy the rail lines converging on Auschwitz remains an outrageous enigma into Poland? Why were the tracks leading to Birkenau never bombed? How does Wiesel’s choice of genre prove beneficial in the excerpt?
It shows him trying to reconcile the events of his past in Poland so he can move on with his future in America.
It gives him the chance to question presidents and generals about their positions regarding the Holocaust.
It allows him a moment to reflect on why the world neglected to aid the Jewish people during their greatest time of need.
It provides him the opportunity to accuse American and Soviet leaders of keeping the Holocaust a secret.

"i have my doubts," i replied; "and i was silly enough to pay the full amontillado price without consulting you in the matter. you were not to be found, and i was fearful of losing a bargain." the thousand injuries of fortunato i had borne as i best could, but when he ventured upon insult i vowed revenge. he had a weak point --this fortunato --although in other regards he was a man to be respected and even feared. he prided himself on his connoisseurship in wine.
