the German Army suffered terribly during

the first world war and the German

Nation also suffered terribly especially

after the

war the crippling sanctions enacted by

The Victors with the Treaty of

Versailles threw the country into

serious

depression there was chaos on the

streets and Anarchy in the air

Communists seized many cities including

Berlin while the great wealth of the

nation was bled Away by outrageous War

reparations or sucked out by

unscrupulous politicians the average

German was

[Music]

impoverished inflation and unemployment

soon followed and quickly destroyed all

hope all confidence all

morality German cities were a wash in

pornography and prostitution with even

starving children being bought and sold

like sex

toys crime was rampant drunkenness and

drug addiction were

widespread suicide rates

soared the situation seemed

hopeless and then things changed

dramatically soon after the national

socialists were elected the German

economy sprang to life unemployment was

erased building boomed great projects

began confidence burst to life a new

after years of hunger hardship shame and

degradation Germany became a happy

hopeful Nation

again Germany's transformation from

squalor and misery to a world superpower

was so incredible that the 1938 Time

Year to many it seemed as if a new

cultural economic and political

Renaissance for all of Europe was at

hand but others throughout the world

envious powerful but above all fearful

now worked night and day to take Germany

down the second world war was the most

deadly and destructive war in history

for six long years the unequal struggle

pitting Germany against the world

continued with first one side then the

other on top but at last overwhelmed

Germany was once more

defeated this time however the Reich was

to be punished not with mere reparations

nor loss of land nor with simple

decadence and despair no on this

occasion Germany was to be subjected to

Pure hatred hatred of the most vicious

evil and depraved kind imaginable

Millions upon millions of Germans many

of whom had nothing to do with the war

were systematically raped tortured

slaughtered and all in the most sadistic

and sickening ways imaginable what

happened to Germany and its people

during and after World War II has

remained the darkest and best kept

secret in world history until now

this film is based upon the book by

author and historian Thomas

Goodrich over the past 30 years Goodrich

has written about a number of

controversial subjects the American

Civil War Abraham Lincoln the American

Indian Wars

but because World War II remains to this

very day a pressing issue the author

feels this is by far his most urgent And

Timely

book this is the story of the crimes

that were committed against Germany

during and after World War

II the words you will hear are those of

the victims themselves and the witnesses

to these

atrocities there will be no attempt here

to present the Viewpoint of the other

side anyone seeking the Victor's version

of world War II needd only watch any

Hollywood movie turn on the TV to any

World War II documentary or visit any

public

library this film like the book it is

based upon does not concern itself with

what the Germans allegedly did to the

world during the so-called good war no

the focus here is instead on what the

world did to the Germans the crimes

detailed here in are so vicious so

massive and so evil that there are no

words in the English language to

accurately describe

them these are crimes that have been

buried by The Victors under a mountain

of propaganda and lies for now over 70

years this film is dedicated not only to

the voiceless victims of the world's

worst war but also to Future

Generations our hope is that if enough

good people in the world are willing to

listen and learn what actually occurred

to these innocent victims men women the

old the Young the sick animals then they

someday soon will rise up as one and

with United voice demand that nothing

like this ever happens again to anyone

anywhere during World War II Germany was

subjected to an unrelenting assault from

the sky the Americans in British called

it carpet bombing saturation bombing or

unrestricted

bombing however the German women and

children who suffered through this

nightmare called it by a simpler more

accurate name Terror

bombing the terror campaign was no

accident it was the secret plan of

British prime minister Winston Churchill

and air Chief Marshall Arthur Harris to

unleash the full power of the royal Air

Force against German civilians to

inflict as much damage to destroy as

many homes and to kill as many men women

and children as

possible jman cities will be subjected

to an ordeal the life of which has never

been

experience my country

continuity severity or

magnitude to achieve this end there are

no lengths of violence to which we will

go Church Hills violence was on full

display during the night of July 24th

1943 to the residents of hurg a city of

over 1 million Souls The Raid seemed

initially like a standard bombing run

but soon hundreds of enemy aircraft

began raining down tons upon tons of

high explosives on the very heart of

hurg schools churches Hospital hospitals

homes ancient art and architecture all

were blown to

bits the onslaught increased in Fury

with each succeeding wave of bombers

building minute by minute into a fiery

devastating

Crescendo and then the planes suddenly

disappeared the skies were clear again

and All Above was

silent when the stunned survivors

reemerged from their sellers later that

night they saw that their once beautiful

city was now a smoldering

ruin the following day as firefighters

from throughout Northern Germany battled

The Blaze Allied bombers suddenly

appeared over hurg again as planned the

Americans surprised not only the

emergency workers but Columns of fleeing

refugees as well thousands

[Music]

perished the next night RAF bombers

returned in addition to the normal

payload of high explosives the British

sent down tons of phosphorus bombs to

accelerate the

fires the resulting configration ignited

a

firestorm hurricane force winds created

by the intense heat uprooted trees

ripped roofs from buildings and sucked

screaming victims into the Raging

Inferno some who escaped the 150 mph

winds in the streets became mired in

melting asphalt and quickly burst into

flames those who had thrown themselves

into the city's canals died of thermal

radiation then as they floated on the

water's surface they too

ignited in the center of the Firestorm

temperatures reached 1500°

F when the Great mass of flames joined

they Rose into a column 3 m High

the attacks against hurg continued

unabated for another week soon there was

nothing left to

destroy appropriately dubbed by the

Allies as operation Gamora the raids had

been a cold and calculated attempt to

Scorch hurg and its people from the face

of the

Earth the plan succeeded with 13 square

miles of total Destruction the 750,000

homeless with an estimated 60 to 100,000

dead mostly women and children hurg for

all intents and purposes had ceased to

exist it was now clear to all that the

Allied air war against Germany had

become a war of Massacre and Terror

the pattern was repeated time and again

across Germany Hamburg Berlin nurburg

darot cologne stutgart

verburg Munich all German cities

suffered the same after first blasting a

town to splinters the Allied bombers

quickly returned in the hope of catching

survivors and Rescuers in the open and

igniting with firebombs all that

remained when the Roaring bombers

released their lethal cargo a veritable

rain of fire descended upon a targeted

town the thousands of small fires would

join together to form one huge Blaze

creating an intense Vortex of wind and

Flames I struggled to run against the

wind in the middle of the street we

couldn't go on across because the

asphalt had melted there were people on

the roadway some already dead some still

lying alive but stuck in the asphalt

they were on their hands and knees

screaming some miraculously Survived The

Inferno reaching safety in rivers canals

and Parks thousands more however did not

when the raids finally ended and the

firestorms began to recede rescue

workers rushed to free those still

trapped

[Music]

Underground when Woodby Rescuers finally

broke through to buried bunkers they

often found scenes of unimaginable

Horror in cellers suffering direct hits

walls were a wash in blood with bone

brains and body parts splattered

everywhere Rescuers who entered some

bunkers found floors covered in up to a

foot of Gracy fat the victims rendered

down into a dark

liquid when word first filtered through

to the outside world of The Butchery

being visited upon the women and

children of Germany by the Royal Air

Force critics of these war crimes spoke

out the ruthless Mass bombing of

congested cities is as great a threat to

the Integrity of the human spirit is

anything which has yet occurred on this

planet there is no military or political

Advantage which can justify this

[Music]

blasphemy although it was considered

treasonous for members of the RAF to

criticize the bombing campaign the

conscience of some was overwhelmed by

the hell being Unleashed upon

Germany there were people down there

being fried to death in melted ashfeld

in the roads they were being burnt up

and we were shuffling in sendry bombs

into this

Holocaust I felt terribly sorry for the

people in that fire I was helping to

stoke

up as a symbol of the Third Reich and as

the most obvious example of Germany's

will to on more bombs were devoted to

Berlin than any other German

City it is another place however that

has become most widely associated with

the terror campaign waged against

Germany

Dresden since Dresden had suffered only

two small raids in the 5 years of war

many assumed that the city's salvation

was due to its Irreplaceable Treasures

ornate palaces world-renowned museums

and art galleries its towering centuries

old

Cathedrals others surmised that since

Dresden had almost no heavy industry and

what little it did have had no bearing

on the war the enemy simply did not deem

the city a viable

Target to some the 26,000 Allied PS

intered within the town appeared a more

logical

answer still others thought that perhaps

it was the estimated half million

refugees jamming the city many who had

fled Soviet atrocities in the East that

kept Dresden safe from

bombing despite the dire situation as

War closed in droners were determined on

the night of February 13th to enjoy an

annual event known in America as mardig

but celebrated in Germany as

fashing women and children along with

the few remaining men many in costume

flooded the streets of Dresden to

celebrate the event one last time before

Germany's looming

defeat just before 10 pm Sirens began

wailing there was no Panic most

residents simply ignored the

sounds even had there been any air raage

shelters few would have fled to them for

there seemed little doubt On This Cold

Yet cheery night that like the 171 false

alarms which had preceded it this

warning too would end in

nothing however instead of the all clear

siren a short time later Dresden heard

another sound a sound similar to a

rolling

earthquake as wave after wave of RAF

bombers appeared overhead thousands of

bombs tumbled

down added to the normal payload of high

explosives hundreds of 2 and 4 ton

Blockbuster bombs slammed into Dresden

obliterating entire ire neighborhoods

ancient Cathedrals palaces and museums

were reduced to Rubble within

seconds at the railroad station hundreds

of individuals who had refused to leave

their highly coveted train seats were

blown to bits at the huge indoor circus

Spectators performers and animals were

slaughtered by blast and hissing

shrapnel well-marked hospitals were

targeted in the streets on the sidewalks

at top the bridges over the elb river

costumed revelers with Nowhere to Run

were slain by the

thousands without letup the massacre

continued and then the roar above ceased

the explosions stopped and there was

quiet once

more several minutes later the welcomed

silence was broken by the even more

welcomed sound of the all clear

signal what had seemed an allight trial

by fire had actually occurred in just

under half an hour in those 30 minutes

however one of the world's most

beautiful architectural Treasures had

all but

vanished fire brigades from surrounding

towns arrived Red Cross workers spread

out to help the victims families

screamed for missing loved

ones for many the end of the world had

seemingly

arrived no one however was at all

emotionally prepared for what came

next at 1:30 a.m. the Earth began to

tremble once again as more than a

thousand bombers roared overhead a rain

of death showered down on

Dresden in addition to explosives the

second wave bought tons of incendiary

bombs in a matter of minutes the

thousands of firebombs ignited the

debris and a racing furnace of flame

erupted unfamiliar with the bombing

raids and firestorms most droners

reacted

slowly many sought safety in sellers

again not realizing that the terrific

heat would transform their Havens into

ovens others ran for safety through the

streets only to become mired in melting

asphalt or sucked into the Roaring

furnace copper roofs melted sending down

streams of molten metal upon on the

people

below throughout the night the fiery

hell that was dresed in claimed victims

by the thousands by the tens of

thousands and by the hundreds of

[Music]

thousands the following day when the

fires had cooled rescue workers went to

work never would I have thought that

death could come to so many people in so

many different

ways sometimes the victims looked like

Ordinary People apparent peaceful

sleeping faces of others were racked

with pain the bodies stripped almost

naked by the

tornado there were wretched refugees

from the East clad only in rags and

people from the Opera in all their

finery

here the victims was a shapeless slab

there a layer of

Ashes across the city along the streets

wafted the unmistakable stench of

decaying

flesh indeed of all the Hideous scents

wafting through Dresden sulfur gas

sewage the heavy stench of cooked flesh

blanketed

all what were at first mistake taken to

be thousands of burnt logs scattered

about the streets were soon found to be

charred corpses glued to the surface

each reduced to roughly 3

ft one shape I will never forget was the

remains of what had apparently been a

mother and the child they had shriveled

and charred into one pce and had been

stuck ridly to the asphalt they had just

been priced up the child must have been

underneath the mother because you could

still clearly see its shape with its

mother's arms clasped around

it aware that those in the old city

would flee the Flames to the Open Spaces

the RAF had hurled hundreds of high

explosive bombs into the huge Central

Park here the slaughter was ghastly torn

off limbs mutilated torsos heads blown

from their bodies and hurled away the

nightmare was everywhere

[Music]

I went down on my knees trembled and

cried several women laid there with

their bellies burst open and one could

see the babies for they were hanging

half outside many of the babies were

mutilated seems like that one I saw

everywhere and very slowly one became

numbed one acted like a

zombie the next morning words spread

that survivors should assemble in the

city park as the suffering Mass climbed

over the debris and the dead they

reached the park as well as the grassy

banks of the elb some found missing

loved ones most however did

not and then shattering the calm came

the sounds once more the Roar of engines

overhead as us bombers began blasting

the rubble to dust American fighter

planes zeroed in on the thousands of

refugees at the park along the river and

in other Open

Spaces even zoo animals which had

miraculously managed to survive the

bombing raids were strafed and

slaughtered a weeping zookeeper watched

as an American pilot chased down and

shot his last remaining

giraffe although the raid lasted only 10

minutes the Americans returned the next

day and the next and the next seemingly

determined that not a single living

thing should survive in

Dresden one of the horrors for those who

had survived the nightmare was recovery

of the Dead initially bodies were

pitched forked onto trucks and wagons

and then taken to shallow Graves on the

outskirts of

Dresden it soon became clear that such a

slow process could never handle the

enormous amount of bodies so huge grills

were fashioned from girds in various

parts of town and corpses were stacked

on them like logs

when the piles reached roughly 10 ft

high and 30 ft wide flamethrowers were

used to ignite the

mass one month after the massacre The

Dresden chief of police reported that

over 200,000 bodies had been recovered

from the ruins later the International

Red Cross estimated that

275,000 had died in the raids because of

the incredible density of dresden's

population on the night of February uary

13th through the 14th because thousands

of victims were refugees with no records

and because many bodies either lay

buried forever in the ruins or had

simply melted like Wax other estimates

which place the death toll at 300,000 to

400,000 May well be closer to the

mark more people died during the

firebombing of Dresden than during the

nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and

Nagasaki

combined to just over it without

opposition felt like murder I felt it

was a cowardly

[Music]

War working in tandem with the terror

bombing of German cities was the targets

of opportunity policy upon the

countryside under this order anything

moving in the Reich was fair game for

Allied fighter planes ships trucks cars

trains ambulances women shopping on

bicycles farmers and Fields animals and

pastures even children in schoolyards

were targets of Allied

aircraft in a flagrant attempt to widen

the war American bombers even attacked

zorich basil and other Targets in

neutral

Switzerland additionally Winston

Churchill made plans to saturate German

cities with poison gas and killed those

women and children yet alive amid the

rubble when advisers pointed doubt that

Adolf Hitler might reply in kind with

his own stockpiles of chemical weapons

the murderous plan was

shelved meanwhile the hell raining from

the clouds mirrored an ongoing hell

rising from the mud as Germans soon came

to realize the Allied Powers sought not

only the physical destruction of Germany

but the spiritual Massacre of the nation

as well

the evil swept in from the East there

were constant rumors and hints about

what might be expected should the Soviet

Union overrun Germany most Germans

however remained

hopeful such Notions of Asiatic hordes

many felt were merely the government's

attempt to harden their will to

resist thus it was that on the night of

October 20th 1944

as the village of nammer dorf and other

communities nearest the front slept in

imagined security the unthinkable

occurred after punching a hole through

the German line the Red Army suddenly

burst into the Reich and swarmed over

the

countryside after several days of

desperate fighting the German verm

regrouped launched a furious

Counterattack and eventually drove the

Red Army across the border what German

troops soon found was was

staggering it was at Neer storf where

stunned soldiers first viewed hell on

Earth along the roads fleeing refugees

had been overtaken by the

Communists the people were pulled from

their carts raped then murdered on the

[Music]

spot in the farmyard further down the

road stood a card to which four naked

women were nailed through their hands in

a cruciform position

Beyond stood a barn and to each of its

two doors a naked woman was nailed

through the hands in a crucified

posture in the dwellings we found a

total of 72 women including

children and one old man

74 all

dead all murdered in a bestial

manner except only a few who had bullet

holes in their

necks some babies had their heads dashed

[Music]

in in one room we found a woman 84 years

old sitting on a

sofa half of whose head had been shared

off with an axe or a spade

old men who had tried to protect their

wives daughters and granddaughters were

themselves knocked down then sawed in

half 50 French PS and polish workers who

had instinctively stepped in to protect

the people were castrated and

killed staggered by the enormity of the

crime German authorities requested that

neutral observers from Spain Sweden and

Switzerland view the sickening Carnage

close up however when the visitors filed

their reports and word finally reached

the outside world there was only

Silence by the winter of 1944 The

Vicious propaganda war waged against

Germany had been

won by that late stage of the conflict

the war of words had reached such evil

extremes that few individuals beyond the

reich's borders were concerned about

brained German babies or crucified

German women by the final months of the

war the enemy to be destroyed was not

merely Adolf Hitler the Nazi party or

even the soldiers in the field by the

final months of the war the aim of the

approaching allies was nothing less than

the utter extinction of the German

Nation every

man every woman every

child fueling the Flames of hate was the

Jewish propagandist Ilia aronberg one of

the most influential men in the Soviet

Union aronberg made sure his message of

evil reached every soldier in the Red

Army by ordering that leaflets be

dropped from airplanes onto the front

lines kill them all men old men children

and the women after you have amused

yourself with them kill nothing in

Germany is Guiltless neither the living

nor the yet

unborn break the racial Pride of the

German woman take her as you legitimate

booty kill you brave Soldiers of the

Victorious Soviet

Army soon as the Red Army forced the

Vermont back in the East millions of

German civilians suffered the same

ghastly fate as the victims of

nemor although first encounters with

Soviet shock troops were truly traumatic

it was the second wave of soldiers who

delivered hell on Earth in numerous

instances before troops pushed on they

turned to the helpless civilians and

warned the Mongols are coming very bman

you go quick go

quick terrified by the news many Germans

did attempt to flee most however found

themselves

trapped other than destroy liquor and

hide young girls most could only watch

the clock and pray that their worst

fears were

unfounded after a wait of sometimes days

but normally hours the dreaded second

wave

arrived composed largely of Mongols and

other Asians as well as convicts these

men who formed the second wave of troops

were regarded even by their own comrades

as utterly

merciless leading this group were the

communist commissars the fanatical

political officers composed almost

exclusively of Jews these hate-filled

individuals acted as the more than

willing orchest ators of the horrors

that befell the German

people of all the methods used to

express its hatred the Red Army said it

best with

[Music]

rape and when the first Russians came

the combat troops they came in and

wanted to see everything asked about

weapons and soldiers looked at

everything closely didn't find anything

and were very friendly and then just

left

and then the next lot

arrived the next one took me outside

straight

away my mother wanted to throw herself

in front of me but she was pushed

back and then they took me upstairs and

as I tried to defend myself he showed me

his

gun and then when I came back down I was

well shocked

and but I was just happy that I was

still alive

they said woman come they said it in

German FR in

German we were the prize it was always

like

that from 8 to 80 years old healthy or

ill indoors or out in fields on

sidewalks against walls the defilement

torture and murder of German women

continued unabated

merely because a female had been raped

once was also no guarantee she would not

be assaulted again and again and

again the Russians were coming and going

the whole time they kept eyeing us

greedily the nights were Dreadful

because we were never safe for a moment

the women were raped not once or twice

but 10 20 30 and 100 times

and if us all the same to the Russians

whether they raped mere children or old

women the youngest victim in the Raw

houses where we lived was 10 years of

age and the oldest one was over

70 the women of Germany not only had to

endure this onslaught of rape torture

and murder but also the humiliation of

having it witnessed by friends and

family

these atrocity mothers were raped in the

presence of their children girls were

raped in front of their brothers when

even violated corpses could no longer be

of use sticks iron bars and telephone

receivers were commonly rammed into

their

vaginas Jewish commissars had a special

desire to defile the churches of Germany

soon after the fall of Danzig hundreds

of desperate females pleaded with an

officer for protection the Soviet

pointed to a Catholic Cathedral after

the women were safely inside the officer

yelled to his men pointed to the church

and with bells ringing and organ pipes

roaring the horror continued all night

some women and girls inside some as

young as 8 years old were raped more

than 30 times little boys who tried to

Shield their mothers were

shocked when Soviet soldiers captured

the city of neweton in February

1945 they discovered several large camps

of the women's Reich Labor Service an

organization composed mostly of girls

who worked on various projects from

nursing to Street repair after

recapturing the area the German soldiers

were horrified by what had happened to

the 2500

females we had never seen anything like

it utterly and unbelievably monstrous

naked dead women lay in many of the

rooms sostic has been cut into the

abdomen and some the intestines bulged

out breasts were caught

up faces beaten to a PP and swollen

puffy others had been tied to the

furniture by their hands and feet and

massacred a broomstick protruded from

the vagina of one a bom from that of

another some mothers had the witness how

that 10 and 12-year-old daughters were

raped by some 20 men the daughters in

turn saw their mothers being raped even

Z

grandmothers women who tried to resist

were brutally tortured to death there

was no

mercy so women we liberated were in a

state almost impossible to describe

their faces had a confused vacant look

some were Beyond speaking to ran up and

down and moan the same sentences over

and over

again having seen the consequences these

Beal atrocities we were terribly

agitated and determined to fight we knew

as war was past Ving but it was our

obligation and sacred duty to fight to

the very last

bullet while its men fought furiously in

the East Germany was also trying to

Stave off Invasion from the West

unfortunately the Invaders on the this

front often did not behave any better

than their Soviet allies Battlefield

newsmen to the West simply did not

report the crimes as tens of thousands

of German raped victims could attest

there was no safety among the American

and

British Millions

massacred Millions raped Millions

already enslaved but this was only the

beginning of Germany's nightmare

with the German Army in headlong Retreat

hordes of red soldiers swarmed into

great Germany during the last winter of

the

war as word of the Soviet breakthrough

spread millions of Germans hly packed

and fled into the freezing

weather most merely packed Farm carts

itched horses or cows and set off as

fast as their animals would take

them already bitterly cold several days

after the TS began the temperature

plunged as a result little children and

infants dropped by the

thousands with the Earth hard as rock

tiny holes dug in the snow Banks served

as

Graves it was so terribly cold and the

vent was like ice so snow was falling

and nothing warm to eat no mil and

nothing I tried to give Gabby the breast

behind the house but she didn't take it

because everything was so

cold

many

some given the chaotic conditions and

with freezing refugees clogging the way

many tracks were quickly overhauled by

the Russians some Soviet tanks crashed

straight through the columns squashing

all in their path after heavy traffic

the victims men women children animals

all were pressed together as flat as

cardboard those terrified survivors who

had scattered to the icy Countryside

fell easy

prey as always for the females the

living death soon began

for millions of Germans cut off on the

Baltic Coast only one Avenue of Escape

remained the

sea as isolated ver moed units

desperately defended their shrinking

Baltic Beach heads millions of refugees

poured into the coastal enclaves with

their backs literally to the Sea only

the slow and treacherous evacuation by

boat was an option consequently at memo

kbur danzik and other besieged cauldrons

the situation was appalling every alley

every street was packed with their

vehicles people were waiting in every

harbored in every wind sheltered Corner

among them stood their beasts bleeding

snorting blowing the pregnant women

giving birth somewhere in a corner on

the ground in a

Barrack some of them had been raped on

their flight and now they were trembling

for fear they would give birth to a

monster the strangely pale faces of

girls going up and down the streets

asking for a doctor the wounded and the

sick in constant fear they would be left

behind concealing weapons under their

blankets to force someone to take them

along or to end their own lives if the

Russian

[Music]

came the

orphans who had been saved from the

Asylum

somewhere at the last moment and tossed

onto cards with nothing around them but

a blanket and who were now lying on the

floors with frozen

limbs the old people who had laay down

in some doorway at night and had not

awakened and the Wildey insane

ones who r rushed from house to house

from wagon to Wagon crying for their

mothers or the

children over it all the gray sky snow

Frost and

thaw and thaw and frost and snow and the

chill killing

wet when a long sought vessel finally

tied up and lowered the walkways

pandemonium erupted on the

docks because of an order granting

priority to those with children the

latter became more valuable than

gold once adults had boarded they often

tossed infants to relatives or friends

Below in hopes they might also bored

many babies died of course either

falling into the freezing water or

smashing onto the docks

[Music]

below nearby terribly wounded soldiers

quietly awaited their turn to

[Music]

board for those who sailed from the

besieged ports their prayers appeared

answered for those left standing behind

their Doom seemed

sealed many men in a surge of Madness

shot themselves crazed mothers with

starvation gnawing and the Red Terror

looming found Cyanide and poison

poisoned their children then themselves

old people merely crawled into snow

Banks fell asleep and never

awoke unfortunately for thousands of

refugees there was no escaping the

nightmare even at

Sea while many Refugee ships

successfully traversed the treacherous

Baltic Allied bombers were often the

first to greet them when they

[Music]

docked as wi aunda in Northern Germany

the arrival of a frighter loaded with

evacuees coincided almost exactly with

an Allied air raid hardly had the ship

docked when a direct hit sent it to the

bottom taking 2,000 screaming passengers

with

[Music]

it on January 30th

1945 over 60,000 refugees crowded the

docks of Goten hoffen desperately trying

to board the vilhelm gustoff a former

Cruise liner designed to accommodate

2,000 passengers and crew by the time

the beautiful white Ship cast off she

had taken on as many as 6 to 8,000

refugees as the goose slof backed away

from the port her path was blocked by

smaller craft all jammed with passengers

begging to come aboard Nets were lowered

and an additional 2,000 refugees

scrambled up strained far beyond its

limits the tightly sealed ship filled

with a hot nauseating stench of urine

excrement and

vomit the groans of severely wounded

soldiers and the screams of separated

families added to the ghastly

horror but the worst was yet to

[Music]

come at approximately 900 p.m three

heavy thuds rocked the goose LOF Panic

stricken thousands below deck stamped

heated through the narrow passageways

crushing and clawing in a mad attempt to

reach safety most lifeboats were frozen

solid and even those that could be freed

were mishandled in the Panic spilling

their screaming occupants into the icy

black

sea within a few minutes those in the

water were

dead while thousands of freezing people

pressed along the decks loud speakers

blured words of comfort assuring

passengers that the ship would not sink

and help was on the way convinced that

the sealed bulkheads had held and that

indeed the ship would remain afloat many

refugees fled indoors once more to

escape the razor sharp winds and Theus

20°

temperature the rest bit proved brief

[Music]

however at 10:00 a heavy Tremor ripped

the goose LOF as the bulkheads broke and

the Sea rushed in within seconds the big

ship began to roll on its side then

plunged beneath the

[Music]

waves when rescue ships later reached

the scene they pulled from the icy

waters a mere 900 survivors all else

roughly 7 to 9,000 men women and

children were

lost as many more incidents would prove

the sinking of the goose sloft was no

mistake in a deliberate attempt to kill

as many refugees as possible Soviet

submarines struck again and again at the

slow moving

ships soon after midnight on February

10th an old luxury liner the general

stuben was plowing through the icy black

Baltic heavily weighed down with

refugees and wounded soldiers the ship

was in the midst of its second such

evacuation in less than a fortnite just

before 1:00 a.m. two Torpedoes slammed

into the ship's side

as the sten's stern Rose High out of the

water hundreds leaped overboard

including some who were Torn to Pieces

by the still turning

propellers within 7 Minutes the ship

plunged beneath the waves swiftly

silencing a final Mass scream that

seemed to arise from a single

voice of the 3500 passengers aboard only

a few hundred survived

[Music]

like some great wild animal the Red Army

moved closer to the heart of Germany in

countless German cities and towns the

pattern repeated itself the bloody

nightmare which enveloped the Baltic

Coast was typical of that which

transpired wherever the Soviets occupied

German

soil in many places cicia Prussia

Pomerania in the German communities of

Czechoslovakia Yugoslavia Poland and

hungry a similar horror had been in

progress for weeks there the Gastly

atrocities actually increased as if red

soldiers were in a mad race with one

another to see who could destroy murder

and above all who could rape the most

meanwhile the American and British

forces punched through the German lines

in the west unlike the East Front

however German soldiers were well aware

that the foes they faced in the west

were signatories of the

convention under this agreement captured

or surrendering German soldiers were

protected by

law with the Red Army roaring across

Germany from the East many Germans

secretly hoped that the Americans might

occupy what remained of the Reich before

the Communists did it was no secret that

Germans high and low considered the

Americans and British the lesser of two

evils Unfortunately they were not always

right

in the spring of

1945 as berliners prepared to defend the

capital from the encircling Soviet Army

Germans to the West also fought to Halt

the Allied

tide unlike the howling savagery to the

east fraught with nightmarish ferocity

defeat in the west came methodically

relentlessly and judged by the standards

of the East

almost silently as the Western Front

crept closer civilians anxiously awaited

the Allied arrival unlike the terrified

trekers to the east relatively few

Germans in the west abandoned their

homes the racial and cultural ties with

the Enemy particularly the Americans

were simply too strong to arouse the

same Terror as the Soviets

did far from fleeing the advancing

allies many civilians actually ran to

greet them little did the Germans

realize that because of a decade of

Jewish propaganda the Americans were

perhaps even more hate filled than the

[Music]

Soviets unlike the Wild and almost

unimaginable Red Army US military

commanders might have easily prevented

crimes committed against helpless

civilians had they only willed it in

most cases however they did not

leading the charge against the German

people was General Dwight D Eisenhower a

man whose hatred of all things German

was well known in much the same vein as

Stalin and Roosevelt Eisenhower

advocated the outright Massacre of

German army officers Nazi Party members

and

others in all according to the Allied

Commander at least 100,000 German

leaders should be

exterminated not surprisingly such

sentiment from above quickly filtered

down the only good German is a dead

German became the pervasive sentiment

take no prisoners was the tacit

understanding by the tens of thousands

captured or surrendering Germans were

simply slaughtered on the

spot as American forces swept toward

Munich in late April 1945 most German

guards at the concentration camp near

doow

fled despite signs at the gate warning

no entrance tyus epidemic several

hundred German soldiers were ordered to

the prison to maintain order and arrange

the transfer of over 30,000 prisoners to

the allies when the Americans reached

daau the following day they were

horrified by what they saw outside the

prison sat rail cars full of diseased

and starved

corpses inside the camp a room piled

high with naked and emaciated bodies was

also discovered

unhinged by the nightmare certain that

DACA was proof of the atrocities they

had heard so much about in America

officers turned their enraged troops

loose on the now disarmed German

soldiers the men were deliberately

wounding

guards a lot of guards were shot in the

legs so they couldn't move they were

then turned over to the inmates one was

beheaded with a Bayonet others were

ripped apart limb by limb while the

tortures were in progress a lieutenant

forced over 300 captive Germans up

against a wall planted two machine guns

then ordered his men to open fire those

still alive when the fusel lot ended

were forced to stand amid the Carnage

while the machine Gunners

reloaded in all over 500 helpless German

soldiers were slaughtered in Cold

Blood as a final touch the citizens of

daau were forced to bury the thousands

of corpses in the camp thereby assuring

the death of many more from disease few

Americans noticed because few cared but

conditions in German cities and towns

were not much better than that at dcau

because of the round-the-clock American

and British Air attacks week after week

very little food and almost no medicine

was arriving anywhere in Germany

virtually none reached the numerous

concentration camps where during the

last days disease and starvation Swept

Away the inmates by the thousands

the incident at DACA was merely one of

many massacres committed by US

[Music]

troops we had been held up at a little

town we were supposed to just walk

through it and the Germans stopped us

dead we just couldn't crack

it eventually artillery came

in sort of leveled the house

they finally surrendered and they came

out and sort of lined up and per usual

no one knew what was going

on we had a new Battalion Commander just

graduated from West Point and he lined

him up and said I want you to shoot

him and I was

horrified quite a few of us were

horrified

and I went to him and told him you know

that this was against all international

law and

Humanity my good buddy who

I'd spent so much time with grab me and

said this nut will shoot you you better

quit knock this off and and he got

enough guys and they shot these about 25

prisoners it was a terrible thing to

see and I talked to a lot of my buddies

who had shot these

guys and they were horrified

too unaware of the deep hatred the

Allies harbored for them when proud SS

units surrendered they naively assumed

that they would be accorded respect as

the unsurpassed Fighters that they had

proven to be as soon as they were

disarmed most were slaughtered where

they

stood for those members of the German

military lucky enough to survive capture

death often awaited behind the lines

where thousands more

perished with General Eisenhower turning

a blind eye to the Geneva Convention

only the threat of retaliation against

Allied PS still held in Germany

prevented a massacre of prodigious

proportions soon after us combat

soldiers moved out of a community and

the rear Echelon troops moved in the

reality of occupation became clear to

the German citizens the second wave of

soldiers wanting to experience a bit of

War on their own took out their

aggression on the helpless Germans by

looting raping killing and destroying in

many towns the Invaders unlocked jails

prisons and concentration camps and

invited the inmates to join in the

rry they just opened up the camps and

let them go the Russians and poles were

looting the houses and killing the

shopkeepers

then they began raping the

girls similar Mayhem engulfed most towns

in Western Germany As Americans and

British pushed

onward our own Army and the British army

have done their share of looting and

raping we too are considered an army of

rapists although brutal rapes persisted

against the defenseless females the

Allied troops quickly discovered that

hunger was a powerful incentive to

sexual surrender

although sex could be bought for a bit

of food a cigarette or a bar of soap

some Victors preferred to take what they

wanted whenever and wherever they

pleased hunger made German women more

available but despite this rape was

prevalent and often accompanied by

additional

violence in particular I remember an

18-year-old woman who had the side of

her face smashed with with a rifle butt

and was then raped by two

GIS even the French complained that the

rapes looting and drunken

destructiveness on the part of our

troops was

excessive despite the numerous

atrocities committed on the Western

Front such savagery never became

officially

sanctioned considering the bloodthirsty

propaganda from the primarily Jewish

owned media as well as the active

incitement of their political and

military leaders the average British and

American Soldier comported himself

amazingly well and certainly far far

better than his Soviet

counterpart although the Allies in the

west might have easily pushed on to

Berlin they were ordered to Halt just

short of their goal as a token of their

great love and gratitude Roosevelt and

Churchill had already awarded the German

Capital to Stalin as a prize after days

of hopeless fighting in which little

boys fought and all too often died like

men Berlin was finally overwhelmed on

May

2nd and with the suicide of Adolf Hitler

the war effectively

ended now that there was virtually no

chance for reprisals against Americans

held in German P camps Eisenhower's

pathological hatred of Germans was given

free reign

[Music]

with the final capitulation in May 1945

the Supreme Allied Commander found

himself in control of over 5 million

ragged weary but living enemy soldiers

since Eisenhower could not kill more

armed Germans in war the American desk

General decided to kill disarmed Germans

in

[Music]

peace because the Geneva Convention

guaranteed PS the same food shelter and

medical attention as their captors

Eisenhower simply circumvented the

treaty by creating his own category for

prisoners under this reclassification

German soldiers were no longer

considered PS but

DFS disarmed enemy

forces with this slide of hand and in

direct violation of the Geneva

Convention Eisenhower could now deal in

secret with those in his power free from

the prying eyes of of the outside

world even before the war's end

thousands of German PS had died in

American captivity from starvation

neglect and in many cases outright

murder with the German surrender and the

threat of retaliation against Allied PS

entirely erased deaths in the American

concentration camps accelerated

dramatically while while tens of

thousands died of starvation and thirst

hundreds of thousands more perished from

overcrowding and

[Applause]

[Music]

disease it's incomprehensible to me how

we could stand for many many days

without sitting without lying down just

just standing there totally soaked

during the day we marched around huddled

together to try to warm each other a bit

the latrines were just logs flung over

ditches next to the barbed wire fences

to sleep all we could do was to dig out

a hole in the ground with our hands then

cling together in the hole because of

illness the man had to defecate on the

ground soon many of us were too weak to

take off our charleses first so our

clothing was infected and so was the mud

where we had to walk and sit and lie

down there was no water at all at first

except the

rain more than half the days we had no

food at all on the rest we got a little

K ration I could see from the package

that they were giving us one/ tenth of

the rations that they issued to their

own men I complained to the American

Camp Commander that he was breaking the

Geneva Convention but he just said

forget the convention you haven't any

rights within a few days some of the men

who had gone healthy into the camps were

dead I saw our men dragging many dead

bodies to the gate of the camp where

they were thrown loose on top of each

other onto trucks which took them away

as if their plight were not already

hideous enough prisoners occasionally

became the targets of drunken guards who

sprayed the camps with machine gun

fire at one compound amused guards

formed lines and beat prisoners with

clubs and sticks as they ran the

gauntlet for their poultry

rations at another Camp of 5200 men 10

to 30 bodies were hauled away every day

prisoners who did not succumb to hunger

or disease often died of thirst many men

were forced to drink their own urine

even though streams ran a few feet from

the barbed wire there was no lack of

food or shelter among the Victorious

allies actually American Supply Depots

were bursting at the seams instead of

allowing even a trickle of this bounty

to reach the compounds the starvation

diet was further reduced within full

view of some camps Americans would

sadistically burn food that they could

not eat themselves civilians from nearby

Villages and towns themselves starving

were prevented at gunpoint from passing

their own meager Fair through the fence

to

prisoners horrified by the silent secret

Massacre the International Red Cross

which had over 100,000 tons of food

stored in Switzerland tried to intercede

when two trains filled with supplies

reached the camps however they were

turned back by American officers

many people found no justification

whatsoever in the massacre of helpless

prisoners especially since the German

government had lived up to the Geneva

Convention as one American put it to a

te the Red Cross reported that 99% of

American prisoners of war in Germany had

survived and were on their way home

nevertheless Eisenhower's murderous

program continue to

Pace some upright generals such as

general Patton opposed these murderous

measures but Eisenhower quickly

overruled

them while continuing to deny the Red

Cross and other relief agencies access

to the camps Eisenhower stressed among

his Camp commanders the need for secrecy

to prevent the gruesome details from

reaching the outside world and Sidetrack

those that did counter rumors were

circulated stating that far from

mistreating and murdering prisoners Camp

commanders were actually turning back

release Germans who tried to back in for

food and

shelter unlike their capitalist

counterparts the Soviet Communists made

little effort to hide their crimes

hundreds of thousands of Germans toiled

in the forest and mines of Siberia the

captives were slaves pure and simple and

no attempt was made to disguise the fact

for the enslaved Germans male and female

the odds of surviving the Soviet gulags

were even worse than escaping the

American death camps a trip to Liberia

was tantamount to a death sentence what

little food the slaves received was

intended merely to maintain their

strength until they were worked to death

much the same might be said of the

600,000 German slaves held by the

French ultimately no fewer than 800,000

German prisoners died in the American

and French death camps indeed recent

estimates place the death toll at

upwards of 1.5 million and thus in peace

did Eisenhower murder at least 10 times

the number of German soldiers than were

killed on the whole Western Front during

the whole of the

war with the once Mighty verock now

disarmed and enslaved and with their

leaders either dead or awaiting trial

for war crimes the old men women and

children who remained in the dismembered

Reich now found themselves utterly at

the mercy of the

victors unfortunately never the history

of the world was Mercy in shorter

Supply soon after their victory in

Europe the Allied Purge of Nazi Party

members

commenced in theory deification was a

simple transplanting of party officials

with those of Democratic Socialist or

communist

[Music]

underpinnings in practice The Purge

became little more than a cloak for rape

torture and

death all adult Germans were compelled

to register at the nearest Allied

headquarters and complete a lengthy

questionnaire on past

activities while many nervous citizens

were detained then and there most

returned home convinced that their

terrible ordeal was over for Millions

however the trial had just

begun few German adults Nazi or not

escaped the dreaded knock on the

door many people were arrested multiple

times including Lenny reinstall a

talented young woman who was perhaps the

world's most artistic

filmmaker because her epic documentaries

Triumph of the will and Olympia seemed

to glorify not only Germany but national

socialism and because of her close Rel

relationship with an admiring Adolf

Hitler Lenny was of great interest to

the

Allies neither my husband nor my mother

nor any of my three assistants had ever

joined the Nazi party nor had any of us

been politically active no charges had

ever been filed against us yet we were

at the mercy of the allies and had no

legal protection of any

kind as beaten up until they confess to

having been members of the Nazi party

The Authority simply assume that

basically everybody has belonged to the

party many people die during and after

these interrogations While others who

admited once their party membership are

treated more

leniently generally after enduring

blackened eyes broken bones rape

electric shock to the breasts or in the

case of and smashed testicles only those

who took their own lives or died during

torture failed to sign

confessions since most Intelligence

Officers accompanying us and British

forces were Jewish refugees who had fled

Germany in the 1930s their knowledge of

the language and culture was superb with

old scores to settle the presence of

these men ensured that there would be no

mercy shown to Nazis or any German for

that matter

[Music]

during the Nazi war crimes trial at

nurburg almost any method that would

obtain a confession was

employed understandably after several

such sessions even the strongest

submitted and signed papers

incriminating themselves and others in

addition to testimony given under

torture those who might have spoken in

defense of the accused were threatened

with torture and death themselves

moreover hired Witnesses were paid by

the Americans to Parrot the

prosecution's

charges horrific as densification was in

the British French and especially the

American zones it was nothing compared

to what took place in Poland behind

Soviet lines in hundreds of

concentration camps sponsored by

something called the office of State

security thousands of Germans male and

female female old and young high and low

Nazi and non-nazi were rounded up and

imprisoned staffed and run by Jews with

help from the poles CS Russians and

other former concentration camp inmates

the prisons were little better than vast

torture chambers where dying was a thing

to be prolonged not hastened while those

with blonde hair blue eyes and handsome

features were first to go anyone who

spoke German would do for these vengeful

Camp operators no torture no sadism no

depravity no evil seemed too monstrous

to inflict on those now in their power

some Germans were forced to crawl naked

on all fours and eat their own excrement

as well as that of others many were

drowned in open

latrines hundreds were herded into

buildings and burned to death or sealed

in caskets and buried

alive near Lambs Dorf German women were

forced to disiner bodies from a Polish

burial

site then kiss and make love to the

putrid rotting

[Music]

corpses not surprisingly the mortality

rate at the concentration camps was

staggering and of those rare individuals

who did leave with their lives few could

any longer be called human

meanwhile as the judicial charade was in

progress behind Prison Walls tortures of

Another Kind stalked the liberated

German people as the Allied Victors

enacted their plan to divide Loot and

utterly destroy conquered Germany in

late 1944 the so-called Morgan thou plan

was endorsed by President Roosevelt

making the Jewish pre-war demand for

German extermination official named for

Roosevelt's Secret AR of the treasury

Henry morgantha but actually conceived

by the secretary's top Aid Harry Dexter

white both of whom were Jewish the

program called for the complete

destruction of Germany after Victory had

been

won in addition to the dismantling and

destruction of heavy industry and the

permanent closure of Mines The morgantha

Plan called for a reduction of the

reich's land area by 1 half as many knew

this act guaranteed that roughly 2third

of the German population or 50 million

people would soon die of

starvation with the remnant of the

population reduced to subsistence

farming and with the shrunken Nation

totally at the mercy of hostile European

neighbors it was estimated that within

two generations Germany would cease to

exist when Roosevelt's successor Harry

Truman met at potam with Stalin in the

new British prime minister Clement Atley

in July 1945 most of the teeth in

Morgan's murderous scheme remained on

the table with the signature of the big

three the plan went into

effect Stalin's methodical looting in

the Russian occupation Zone became

prodigious steel mills grain mills

lumber Mills sugar and oil refineries

chemical plants Optical Works shoe

factories and other heavy industries

were taken apart down to the last nut

and bolt and sent East to the Soviet

Union where they were

reassembled those fact factories allowed

to remain in Germany were to operate

solely for the benefit of Russia

electric and steam locomotives their

Rolling Stock and even the tracks they

ran on were likewise sent

East unlike its primitive Soviet Ally

the United States had no need for German

plants and factories nevertheless the

Americans were Far and Away the most

zealous at destroying Germany's ability

to

recover while the US may have spurned

German industry they had a great

interest in the right horde of treasure

billions of dollars in gold silver and

currency as well as Priceless paintings

sculptures and other artworks were

plucked from their hiding places in

caves tunnels and salt mines and shipped

across the

Atlantic additionally and a far greater

damage to Germany's future was the

mental dismantling of the

Reich tons of secret documents revealing

Germany's tremendous organizational

talent in business and industry were

simply stolen

[Music]

hundreds of the greatest scientists in

the world were likewise compelled to

immigrate by The

Victors one man opposed to the Vengeance

minded program was George Patton

evidently the virus started by morgantha

of a Semitic revenge against all Germans

is still working I can't see how

Americans can sink so

low during the first post-war years

Germany was little better than a vast

concentration camp coinciding with the

ruthless Allied program of densification

and re-education was the American and

British policy of non-fraternization

segregating the victors from the

vanquished in an effort to further

degrade and demonize Germans and Crush

what little pride and respect

remained one year after the war's end

the former Reich still had Urban

dwellers clinging precariously to their

caves and cracks for shelter

in Berlin alone an estimated 50,000

orphans struggled to

survive some of them oneeyed or

one-legged Veterans of seven or so many

so deranged by the bombing and the

Russian attack that they screamed at the

sight of any uniform even a Salvation

Army one while occupation troops dined

on five course meals complete with fried

sole Dutch steak and ice cream thousands

of starving children felt fortunate if a

potato peel or crust of moldy bread was

Unearthed children who could not live by

their wits died those who didn't starve

or freeze were crushed by the walls of

their caves or torn to shreds by

unexploded bombs which lay scattered

across Germany by the

ton on their own orphans aged fast and

little girls aged fastest of

all like their older sisters the

children soon discovered that selling

themselves could Stave off starvation a

concern not only for those who were

selling themselves but for the millions

of rape victims was unwanted pregnancy

thousands who were in fact pregnant

sought and found abortions thousands

more lived in Dreadful suspense their

lives utterly shattered in every way

imaginable at length Allied soldiers

reporters and others began to recoil at

the ruthless reign of terror transpiring

in

Germany while the Germans around them St

carve we rags and live in huels the

American Aristocrats live in often

unaccustomed ease and

luxury they live in the finest houses

from which they drove the Germans they

Swagger about in fine liveries and Gorge

themselves on diets three times as great

as they allow the

Germans when we tell the Germans their

low rations are necessary because food

is so short they naturally either think

we are lying to them or regard us as

inhuman for taking the Lion Share of the

short supplies while they and their

children

starve even as the chorus of critics

over the sadistic treatment of Germany

grew a nightmare of almost unbelievable

proportions was developing behind the

Iron Curtain

never mind the five more million

Jans Stalin will see to

them with a wave of the hand and a puff

of his cigar the British prime minister

thus condoned one of the greatest

massacres in human history with an

understanding reached at Yalta then

signed into law at potam the Soviet

Union swallowed vast chunks of German

and polish territory in the east in

return Poland itself devoured large

tracks of the former Reich in the west

including much of Prussia Pomerania and

the extremely rich industrialized

province of

cicia despite solemn reassurances by the

Allied leaders that the mass expulsions

would be carried out in an orderly and

Humane manner shattering glass and

splintering doors were usually the first

sounds a victim heard

soon followed by Angry shouts to clear

the home in 30 10 even 5 minutes thus by

10 and 20s by hundreds and thousands

homeless Germans now began trudging West

with no clear goal in mind except for

those able-bodied individuals held as

slaves and young girls retained for sex

roughly 11 million truers took to the

roads thus began the greatest death

march in

history as they left town in an endless

possession polish soldiers fell upon

them beating and flocking them in a

blind rage robbed of all they possessed

and literally stripped of the last of

the belongings these poor creatures

trudged along in the wind and the rain

with no roof or shelter over their heads

not knowing where they would find a new

boat of the roughly 11 million victims

hurled from their homes in Eastern

Germany an estimated 2 million mostly

women and children perished equally as

horrifying though less wellknown were

the nearly 1 million Germans who died

during similar expulsions in

Czechoslovakia Hungary Romania Bulgaria

and

Yugoslavia additionally an estimated 4

million more ethnic Germans were sent

East to the Soviet Union where the odds

of surviving as slaves were worse than

as

refugees to slice three or four ancient

provinces from a country then Loot and

plunder 9 million people of their houses

Farms cattle furniture and even clothing

and then expel them from the land they

have inhabited for 700 years with no

distinction between the innocent and the

guilty to drive them like unwanted

beasts on foot to far off provinces

unprotected shelterless and starving is

an atrocity so vast that history records

none

vaster while Western leaders such as

Winston Churchill later feigned surprise

at the tragedy they had wrought in

Eastern Germany little was said about

the deliberate starvation of the rest of

the

Reich and utter silence prevailed

concerning the Allied torture chambers

in Germany the on thepot Massacre of

Nazi party members and SS troops the

death camps run by Eisenhower or the

hellish Jewish torture pens in Poland

taken as a whole it is a certainty that

far more Germans died during the first

two years of Peace than died during the

previous six years of

[Music]

War World War II was the world's worst

war

World War II was the world's worst war

because of the evil that was Unleashed

on millions of helpless men women and

children the Allied war waged against

Germany both during and after the war

were evils so vicious and so depraved

that truly words have not yet been

invented to describe

them while one might estimate the

incredible loss of life during an after

World War II it is almost impossible to

calculate the physical and psychological

suffering caused by the rape torture and

degradation of the German

Nation unlike their victims the victors

faced no post-war prison camps no

slavery no torture no starvation no

rapes no trials for the numerous war

crimes and no vilification campaign that

persists to this very day quite the

opposite for the victors American

generals became American Presidents

British Prime Ministers became British

Knights Allied soldiers became the

greatest generation and The Winning Side

claimed complete and utter control over

the history of World War

II not surprisingly in the Winter's

expert hands the evil crime that was

World War II was quickly transformed

into the crusade in Europe the war to

end evil and simply the good

War year after year decade after decade

a mountain of movies TV shows articles

books are released with the sole intent

of heaping crime and guilt on the heads

of the victims at the same time the

victors have elevated themselves to

Paragons of virtue by hiding the very

real crimes they committed both during

and after the war anyone who can say

that the actions of the Allies were

Justified hopefully has never witnessed

a screaming child running like a living

torch through a flaming Street

never watched as a man drank his own

urine to stay alive even as a river ran

just beyond the prison fence never heard

the animal shrieks of the tortured as

their genitals are mutilated or the

groans of a bleeding woman begging for a

bullet while the line awaiting its turn

grows

longer hopefully these people have never

seen such things for only then one can

understand how they might par it over

and over again the standard refrain they

got exactly what they deserved and never

lose a moment's

sleep still if there is one Central

truth that was born of World War II it

is that clearly there is no such thing

as a good War those who say differently

are either those who profit politically

or financially from war or those who

have never witnessed War up close in all

its horror
