    I just showed in my earlier Post # 128 why Wikipedia is entirely unreliable and grossly biased when it comes to WW 2 history, the holocaust and Israel - Palestine.

    It's impossible to estimate the number of German deaths because there was no registration of the prisoners either at their arrival or at their death. They had little if any food & water, no shelter, no medical care and were routinely tortured, shot at for "entertainment."

    Earlier, at Auschwitz, the inmates had shelter, adequate food, medical care, a swimming pool, an inmate orchestra, a library, soccer games and even a maternity ward where 3,000 babies were born without a single birth death:

    "HOLOCAUST DEPROGRAMMING COURSE"
    https://holocaustdeprogrammingcourse.com/

    "Auschwitz maternity ward"

    EXCERPT "Over 3,000 live births were registered there, with not a single infant death while Auschwitz was in operation under German rule.

    * Auschwitz pregnancies took place because of the open nature of the facility." CONTINUED(3)

    Is name calling the best you can do or are you really so naive as to believe that only the "other" side used propaganda?

    Proof? Maybe even just a citation explaining what you mean? BTW, Germany IS nuclear-armed, just because they didn't build one doesn't mean they aren't "part of the club".

    Yes it means exactly that. Even if you could build a nuclear weapon in a year or even months or weeks does NOT mean you are considered a "nuclear power".

    You say Russia did this, but not America.... while I sourced:
    The Rheinwiesenlager (German: [ˈʁaɪnˌviːzn̩ˌlaːɡɐ], Rhine meadow camps) were a group of 19 camps built in the Allied-occupied part of Germany by the U.S. Army to hold captured German soldiers at the close of the Second World War.


    And the US president did took away their rights as POW and treated them as 2nd class people.
    That's how you end up them Germans, lots of them just boys, dying from first and hunger or just by letting them rot in open air for months.
    And that was before they made them clear the minefields, where they died by the 1000's a day.

    Being forced to clear minefields is a traditional use of POWs. The British did it with Argentine POWs after the Falklands War. The Union forces used Confederate prisoners to do it in the American Civil War.

    Traditionally the waist rapes the laws with impunity but are the first in line when others breach international law with a raised up finger and eager to slap some economic sanctions around with.


    https://www.ohchr.org/EN/ProfessionalInterest/Pages/TreatmentOfPrisonersOfWar.aspx
    Article 52
    Unless he be a volunteer, no prisoner of war may be employed on labour which is of an unhealthy or dangerous nature.
    No prisoner of war shall be assigned to labour which would be looked upon as humiliating for a member of the Detaining Power's own forces.
    The removal of mines or similar devices shall be considered as dangerous labour.

    US signing the convention is irrelevant for the purpose of establishing the legality of the treatment applied to the German prisoners.

    https://www.ohchr.org/EN/ProfessionalInterest/Pages/TreatmentOfPrisonersOfWar.aspx

    The convention was adopted 4 years after the war, and entered into force a year later. It wasn't even a project at the end of the war, when the facts allegedly took place.

    You're just playing shenanigans. The US signed to uphold the laws of the convention, and they trashed it. 1000's of German POW's died a day because of that when they were made to march into the minefields to clear them, feeding them systematically not enough, and making them sleep in the open cold air. It is what it is. Your idea that they were treated well and was according to whatever they agreed upon before or whatever... it is an ill joke. Stop rewriting history for the sake of your feels.

    Oh pfff... it's just copy paste from what they made up before:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geneva_Convention_(1929)#Labour_of_prisoners_of_war

    It states that POW may work, but not war related and it must be safe.
    Them POW also must be fed a normal soldiers ration.

    And the US simply did not, since they denied captured soldiers were POW's.
    Official policy and so the US send a lot of POW to their deaths among them many teens.



    Your previous idea that there is nothing wrong with sending POW into minefields, since it was done before,... doesn't make it right. There is also nothing new about concentration camps either... FYI.

    My grandfather, to his dying day, said that every German and Austrian should have been executed by 1946. Every man, woman, and child should have been wiped out, anyone with German ancestry should have been sterilized.

    I was responding to another Post about Eisenhower's true "death camps" in which about 1 million German POWs and civilians were murdered under the worst of conditions: no shelter, no food, no medical care, no blankets, no clothing etc(1)

    Most Westerners have been so effective brainwashed by the corrupt and fraudulent Holocaust Industry(2), (3) and its complicit Hollywood propaganda mill that they'll believe any lie about the "evil Germans" while former inmates who tell the truth about conditions in Auschwitz are heavily censored(4).
    The vast majority of deaths at Auschwitz were from typhus and natural causes, not fictitious gas, steam or electrocution chambers(5) and, according to the original Auschwitz Death Ledger, a total of 68,864 died or were executed(6)

    I don't claim that conditions at the German camps were idyllic, only that, unlike Eisenhower, Churchill, Stalin etc, the Germans did the best that they could with the very limited resources they had.

    If you would like to continue this discussion about the holocaust or Auschwitz, please do so at an appropriate thread like:

Likewise Mr Jan van Pelt averred that ‘In 1942, two hundred thousand Jews were gassed in buildings 1 and 2.’8 There cannot have been anything like such numbers arriving: and the Death Books have around onethirtieth that number of Jews die in that year! These texts tend to claim that huge numbers of Jews arrived without being registered (and were gassed right away), however we would rather stick to documented data.

    You've never presented any evidence from an unbiased source to support this claim. And given the realities of the burgeoning Cold War, the U.S. and British had every reason to minimize the crimes of the German Nazis.

    Also you miss the obvious. if you are willing to excuse the people who died in the German death camps from harsh conditions they you have to also excuse the deaths of Germans in the "Eisenhower death camps" from harsh. conditions.

    You can't have it both ways

    ------------------------------

    I am unaware of any attempts by the British & the US to minimize German war crimes. Please provide an example.


    Re:
    The differences are as simple as they are obvious.
    1. Eisenhower had an abundance of medical supplies, food, tents, blankets and manpower to care for his POWs & captive civilians yet he deliberately withheld them to cause as many deaths as possible.
    2. Eisenhower could also have simply released his post War POWs like Patton did.
    3. Eisenhower's intent to murder as many Germans as possible is made most obvious by his arbitrary changing the status of the German captives from POWs to DEFs (Disarmed Enemy Forces). Under the Geneva convention, POWs are entitled to food, shelter, medical care while the DEF classification that Eisenhower just made up were not.
    Finally, Eisenhower's hatred of the Germans is infamous:

    "God, I hate the Germans."
    Dwight D. Eisenhower
    https://www.azquotes.com/quote/578610

    On the other hand, the Germans tried as hard as they could to fight the various typhus epidemics that, according to Arno Mayer, caused the most deaths.
    Germans who mistreated Jews were frequently punished(1) in such cases as camp commander, Karl Koch's death sentence enforced by "Blutrichter" (Hanging Judge) Konrad Morgen

    Just as American Dr. Charles Larson found no evidence of "gassing" in the thousands of autopsies he performed,
    Dr. Russell Barton found no evidence that anyone was deliberately starved(2).

    Naturally, at the end of the war after months of rampant typhus and shortages of everything you see the grisly photos of piles of emaciated bodies that were not the norm when the German camps had adequate food & medicine.

    Briefly put, Eisenhower's mass murder was deliberate and calculated while the Germans simply ran out of supplies due to Allied bombing of civilian infrastructure.

    That is something I, a German child, raised in Germany during the war, can't understand! WHY are we being hated?

    I'm probably repeating myself, but here it is again...
    I've said it many times and I will say it again now:

    My youngest brother, then 18 yrs. old, was imprisoned by the Americans in 1945 on the famous Rheinwiesen, without shelter or anything.


    Still, he was lucky, not to have been captured by the Russians, who would have shot him without mercy, because he was an SS soldier.
    He survived the American ordeal and was shipped to France for three years of slave labor.

    Mr. Drucker is one of a few decent and conscientious Americans with a caring heart.
    Unfortunately, my brother already passed away in the early 2000s, never got to hear about Mr. Drucker. Besides, this information is not only suppressed in the US, but also in Germany.

    The sun is shining "up North", and I'm going outside into my garden and see how things are growing, especially the dandelions!! :floating:

    According to Matthew White in "The Great Big Book of Horrible Things" about two million Germans were murdered after World War Two but not by allied military forces. Most were killed by Eastern European governments after the war as they made their way back toward German territory. Eastern European nations did not want large populations of Germans living in their countries due to their presence being an excuse for Nazi expansionism during World War Two.

    The British propaganda wasn't enough to sway the Americans, so they went one better, and packed the Lusitania with explosives so it would sink when torpedoed.

    According to the 1910 census 1 out of 11 Americans were either born in Germany or were first generation Germans. Yet they began coming in colonial times and married Germans, so that the German sentiment and language continued from generation to generation and ended only with WWII - which is a pity. I like diversity.

    My friends mother was born in Germany, and her ethnic German husband was born here. Her brother even fought for Germany, and came back with one leg. My brother in laws maternal grandmother was also born in Germany while his father's family also went back generations, so I would say the percentage of Germans here was more like 35% than 10%.

    There were also the Irish who hated the British, so there was no way that Britain could gain the sympathy of the Americans without a false flag killing of Americans - and that they did with the sinking of the Lusitania. What's interesting is that Winston Churchill was the head of the British admiralty, and Frankly Delano Roosevelt was the head of our Navy at the time.
