I did not have the impression that my fellow german countrymen would see suffering as some value you get when you balance out the individual suffering of groups, like the jews, the poles, the germans, etc...why should they be so stupid?

Anyway, I'm a bit surprised about how many of the germany threads on this board are WW2 related...it's been 60 years after all, you'd think there is more to report about. It's a bit tiring, commenting on your standpoint regarding WW2 and Nazism all the time.

If there weren’t large demonstrations of Neo-Nazis in Germany TODAY Americans would probably not give much pause to comment on WWII.

Anyway, I'm a bit surprised about how many of the germany threads on
this board are WW2 related...it's been 60 years after all, you'd think
there is more to report about.

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

Besides, after getting dragged into two world wars...plenty of Americans
do watch the skies for the third (HOT) world war.
(after surviving a cold war, so far)

Additionally, WWII vets here in the USA realize they will soon be gone.
Thus, many of them are FINALLY relating their experiences and
this has actually upped the general public consciousness and interest
here in the USA.

Freepers are sort of a self-selecting group...and generally are bigger
history junkies than the mainstream (at least here in the USA).
This probably partially explains the prevelance of WWII-Germany threads.
