By your use of the term “mates,” I’m guessing your either from the UK or Australia. I can blame the UK for the White Paper and such travesties as the Struma, but when and where were the UK or Australia ever complicit in the destruction on their own soil? I’ve known survivors who were kept in internment camp in England after finally getting out of Dachau, but that’s perfectly understandable in the middle of a war with refugees born and raised in Germany, and hardly makes anyone complicit in destruction. Please explain.
I use “bloke”, “guy”, “mate” and other terms freely as I have lived OUTSIDE the USA for a long time.
“Complicit in destruction” refers to the European mainland, not the UK and not Australia. The White Paper and not attacking the Concentration camps from the air is another issue altogether. The Holocaust was carried on on European soil not the Island states of GB or AUS.
Is my point clearer?
