Sounds like a good article but when I click on the link I just get a story and picutres of Berlusconi’s whore.
Is he still alive? If he is I’m afraid the Democrats may hire him to enforce their new healthcare policy for old folks. You know, the one that says “You’ve had a long life. Now it’s time to cash in your chips.”

Thanks nickcarraway.Friedrich Buchardt was a clever man, an intellectual and a polymath equally at home practising law or writing papers on economics and geography... In Nazi Germany, he put his great brain to twisted issues of race... He was a lieutenant in the Schutzstaffel, the feared SS... In the Polish towns of Lublin and Lodz, he crossed the line from categorising ethnic types to killing them and from studying population control to carrying it out. The SS hierarchy was impressed. Here was a man who would go far. He impressed further by supervising the deportation of 80,000 Jews and gipsies to the Chelmno extermination camp. Promoted to major, he commanded a notorious death squad that came in behind the front line of Nazi military conquests in the Soviet Union to round up and slaughter tens of thousands of Jews and communists. Einsatzgruppen (death squads) like his killed mercilessly and in large numbers, herding men, women and children from villages and towns to the edge of pits and shooting them in the back of the neck one by one or mowing them down with machine-guns. They murdered without compunction on a medieval scale... Buchardt was by no means the only Nazi who came out of the war not paying for his crimes but profiting from them. But his newly discovered story will fuel the concerns of many people who suspect that, in the post-war era, not enough effort was put into bringing the perpetrators of the Holocaust to justice.To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list. |
