Even though Germany, Italy and Hungary each claimed parts of Slovenia, not too sure her parents or grandparents went along with Hitler.
My German aunt had tells to tell about the rise of Hitler and the war, she said Germans that they knew were not in favor of Hitler, appalled by what he was doing and they all suffered greatly.
They were very afraid, didn't speak their thoughts to anyone.
She was ashamed when she realized what had happened to the Jews and many others, she said they knew they were being taken away but didn't know till the war was over their horrible fate. Did you think it was weird that Merkel was at the D-Day Commemoration but not Putin?
Subject: Out of town pool report #1 — POTUS running behind
Good morning/afternoon from the Shannon Airport, where the pool is gathered on the tarmac.
Just noting that AF1 will not be departing at 2:30 p.m. local time as scheduled. POTUS has yet to leave his golf resort in Doonbeg, which is a 20-25 minute helo ride from here.
More to come.
Yes and now. If Merkel had NOT been there it would have looked really bad. OTOH don’t believe that the Russians took part in D Day. They were always looking out for themselves
Yes many many people were unaware of what their government was doing. Since Malania’s parents kept their religion during the communist take over of their country, they certainly learned to keep their heads down like my friends in laws are doing in Iran today.
A lot of people acted like they went along with Hitler and then joined the communist party just so they could feed their family and live a somewhat normal life.
