Read the excerpt from Elie Wiesel's All Rivers Run to the Sea. 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?
O 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.
O 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.
