I was talking about this movie with a friend just the other day and I told him, guess what?, those “good” Germans still let all this happen and still wanted to take over and rule the whole world and didn't see the light until the Allied Army's foot was already entering their ass. I still praise Ike for making those German citizens go into those death camps and sort and bury all those dead bodies. Of course they had “no Idea” what was going on with the ovens etc. Yeah, right!

Would you have been a different type of German had you been born and raised there? I doubt it.
99.9% of us would have done the same as almost all German citizens - supported your country in time of war.

We have a lot of sheeple just like Wermacht Germans in this country too - they voted for the “0ne”.

Grandpa said that he could smell the camps from miles away. Pretty hard to miss.

He also said that after seeing what the Nazis had wrought, he had no doubts at all why he was over there.

Grandpa only talked about it once, when I was a kid. Wish I had paid more attention....of course at 12 or 14, there's always plenty more time, and plenty more story re-tellings.....but not always.

3,000 abortions a day in the US since 1973, close to 50,000,000 babies now. What will our excuse be?

Many Germans, like us, had it imposed on them. Look, I’m not into apologizing for the germans, and Ike probably did the right thing there, but as one resistance person said in an interview, what are you going to do? As a citizen, you can’t walk up and shoot the man, there’s no way to get to him. And many were in fear for their lives.

Again, I’m not apologizing for them, and it’s impossible to sort them out, but plenty of germans other than jews were victimized too. In a police state, first thing you have to do is dummy up and watch out for numero uno.

How would the German citizens know what was going on in the ovens? The German camps were not death camps. Those who died in Dachau for example, mostly died from disease and lack of care.

There were no extermination camps in Germany. These camps were OUTSIDE Germany, mostly in Poland. And yes, what was going on in Poland was most certainly hidden from the general population, and the world in general.
