Yes, like criminals.

Poland?
No, wait, that was Anne Frank. I guess I don't know who "Ann Frank" is.

Also, I was under the impression that Anne Frank died in Bergen-Belsen , not in the Netherlands. Although it's always possible that Ann Frank was killed in Amsterdam.

Not only that, but she died there of typhus. But when have facts ever gotten in the way of a Fox story?

Huh. My mistake. I thought she died at Auschwitz. Then again, I'm not a multi-million (-billion?) -dollar news corporation who can hire scores of researchers to, you know, research these things.
Cartman: I wouldn't hold the "murder" part against them. I think pretty much anyone (Nazis excluded) could agree the Nazis were responsible for her death, and that it wasn't an accident.

The Franks, as well as everyone else in the Annex, were sent to Auschwitz first. (Well, after some holding area in the Netherlands.) After that they were sent to various places. (And, you know, murdered.)
