That Rudolf Hess was a bad guy is indisputable. But there were a lot of other Nazis and Wehrmacht officers who did a lot worse and got off with just a few years in prison. Hess defected to Britain in 1940 and was out of the loop when many of Hitler’s atrocities went down. Hess was sentenced to life imprisonment at Spandau Prison in Berlin. IMHO, the punishment did not fit the crime in Hess’ situation.
the article says that the lease on the burial plot is up - wow - I thought those were supposed to be “eternal resting places”... I had no idea you could lease a plot...Europe is one weird place.
I’ll be a lot more impressed when the Russians do this with Lenin.
Precisely why the Israelis scattered Eichmann’s ashes after his execution.
I would have had his ashes scattered in international waters instead of an unnamed lake like what happened to Adolf Eichmann and what we did with Bin Laden even though OBL wasn’t cremated. But at least OBL is nos considered fish poo ! LOL
exhumed, burned
...and hopefully pi$$ed on
that’ll teach him
It is simply another indication that the German government does not trust its own people. Germany is not a free country - no matter what German politicians do or say. If a democracy in unable to stand a funny demonstration of a few complete imbecile idiots every year, it is simply a mountain of bullshi*.
BTW - it is a quite funny irony that they turned this crazy neonazi idol into a Holocaust victim (if you take the meaning of the word “Holocaust”). The funniest irony is that the burning of Hess bones was espechially triggered by the “Evangelische Kirche” (German Lutheran Church). In nazi times the same church tried to find the crazy proof that Jesus was an aryan. Today its leadership consists primarily of feminists, perverts and some homosexual peaceniks. Jesus is surely not a aryan anymore to them, but today some of them might ask themselves if he was homosexual.
Germany is somewhat a crazy country. :(
