I’m watching a series on Netflix right now about the Charisma of Hitler.

What’s the name of the series Ron?

Having been to Dachau and seeing the place up close I have little patience for the bullshit spewed by the revisionist retards. I also watched an interesting documentary on Ben Ferencz one of the prosecutors during the Nuremberg trials last night.

Total War is something I hope we never see in our lifetime!

Their purpose was to capture and summarily execute Soviet agents in advance of occupation. They used the locals to help identify them, who were generally more than happy to do so, having been living under their despotic yoke for years.

Yes, it was ruthless. War sucks. Summary execution of enemy partizans has historically been a part of war, however.

And I'm sure that during the process, war crimes were carried out, and innocents were murdered. Happened on all sides, and in every war. Our side had such incidents during the Vietnam War. WWII, also, and likely every other war we were involved in. Such crimes were standard operating procedure for the Soviets during WWII, and they were our beloved allies.

Yes, Amen to that.

Never mind I found it. Thanks for the recommendation. Should be an easy watch and pleasant series.....😳

At Babi Yar alone over 30,000 civilians were machine gunned to death. That are a lot of innocent souls.

I wouldn’t say that FDR or Churchill thought of the Soviets as our “beloved” allies, more like necessary allies. 😉

The sad thing is very few of these evil scumbags ever got prosecuted. They slaughtered innocent people by the thousands, went home, and went about their lives like nothing happened.

Dresden. Not one of the pilots have been charged with murder, nor their superiors who ordered it.

I'm with you. Holocaust deniers make me want to puke.

Of the 3,000 odd member Einsatzgruppen, how many returned to Germany surviving the war?

If it was one, it was too many.

So you have no idea whatsoever as to how many Einsatzgruppen survived the war and escaped prosecution.

Have you spent all your hate on the Nazis or have some to spare for the Soviets and Allies
that killed large numbers non- combatant civilians?

the Allies killed like 70,000 civilians in the Normandy push by bombing a list of densely occupied cities that had virtually
no German forces in them....just level them at whatever ruthless cost cause we were the good guys and such is the price of freedom.

'trusty us friend , we are unnecessarily bombing you for your own good'..

re;30,000 ... History likes to focus on the Jewish victim component of Babi Yar, when it was but a fraction of those
mass executed at that location.

In any war, the winners get to write the history and the losers are always the ones that come out on the short end of the stick. WW2 was no different. There is not doubt whatsoever that the Germans committed numerous atrocities.....but so did the Soviets, probably more than the Germans. The Japanese were no slouches in the atrocity department either. Also, the Allied bombing campaigns killed untold numbers of innocent civilians, most as a result of bombing that had no strategic value, so I don't see how they can get off scott free either.


It's simple, in a war, people die, many of them unnecessarily. It's always been that way, always will.

Atrocities committed by us in Vietnam Nam? The only three who should have been hanged are Lyndon Johnson, Robert McNamara, and Maxwell Taylor.

Yeah but in fairness all the people in those cities were still foreigners.
