Reunion of guards of the SS draws protests

[Zailen1]

I dont think that we have any business meddling into the affairs of old soldiers and their past. If they shared a special bond, and they want to meet, they have every right to. And no twenty something year old can tell them that they can't.

[101shitkid]

there all dead now...goot

[Runol1st]

antifa NOOBS!!!

[MaceandSword]

Those 600 SS vets could probably still beat down the 6000 whining little liberal girls that protested them.

[Lerxstmaniac]

Kurt Meyer died in 1961 so that's definitely not him in the video...

[kokaneegoldbeer]

fuck juden!

[Palmer640]

LOL @ the sign that said Treblinka... Treblinka was a fucking mass transit station... Look it up here on YouTube. ;)

Get your stories straight, stupid protesters.

[mllemelanie01]

@Palmer640 treblinka-2 was an extermination camp second only to auschwitz. this being said, I see nothing wrong with a reunion of veterans and anyways it is legal.

[vidditheviddi]

The crews of allied bombers, who killed thousands of refugees and residents in German cities, meet too. They are still proud of their 'block busters' and the firestorms that targeted civilians.

Consider the genocide and social disintegration that began in the Soviet block after the war, and you know why many of the Waffen SS fought. Were allied soldiers better when they entered Königsberg?

[zulubro]

what year is this? i thought Kurt Meyer died in '61. Connie Chung must be older than i thought

[gdreyer]

Soldiers have the right to meet. Do the crew of the Inola Gay should not meet? After all, they drop am atomic bomb killing thousants of civilians... Why one side can and the other can't?

[DarkElfsDecay]

Disgraceful is what you pieces of shit left wing idiots are doing today!! i didn't give a damn about politics or about nothing till i saw what idiotic programs you have! fucking communism masked under democracy! if the germans won ww2 you would all eat your words and you would have the same fate these veterans have! it's all because they lost that the people of today hate them, that's all really. and to piss you off even more, SIEG HEIL WAFFEN SS!!!!!!!!

[fliegerfaustkanonier]

The SS Members fought against an enemy who was much stronger than them without fear. These so-called protesters feel brave yelling at a bunch of old men. Stupid left wing faggots. If the german soldiers of ww2 hadn´t benn fightin that brave, all these trade union, university and fashion "reds" would be given a taste of real communism today.

[fyvieo]

SS is SS, whether Waffen or Allgemeine. Disgraceful.

[CE750]

@fyvieo not really.... very different in most cases

[SixbulletRussianRoul]

This kinda pisses me off. This people fought together under the harshest of conditions ofcourse there's a special bond between these soldiers and ofcourse if they want to meet up and have some annual meeting, why not? I don't know for sure what they're doing but I don't think they're plotting a new Nazi takeover in Germany. They're just Soldiers getting together once a year.

[gopconservative78]

should have opened fired on this scum...........

[umfums]

@gopconservative78... Yip i agree with u,the same should happen to the US army in Iraq....

[CE750]

People DO understand the difference between Waffen SS and Allgemeine SS, right? To call Waffen SS men "Guards" of concentration camps is a gross misinterpretation of the facts. idiots.

[edwardkawka]

@CE750 Hey , many "solders" of waffen ss goes there from concentration camps guard . They was nazi murders . 

[CE750]

@edwardkawka completely untrue... they were totally different ... one an enforcer of the Nazi's policies, and part of the police state of Nazi Germany.... the other was nothing more than "soldiers" in military combat, no different than Army (Heer), or other branches of the armed forces.

[sirrvs]

*sigh* Shows you the strength of propaganda to have effect long after the end of the war. People just see ϟϟ and throw a hissy-fit.

[freethinker971]

its unfortunate that the jews were persecuted but i mean seriously every country does bad things INCLUDING ISRAEL which they often conveniantly ignore its been so many decades cant they just let go for instance instead of bitching about a reunion maybe settle problems cropping up in their own new country??? maybe they should learn that after the holocaust ended no one personally gives a shit about some old men meeting up

[michaelwright999]

LEAVE THEM THERE OLD MEN NOW, LET THEM HAVE A FEW COLD BEERS, AND TALK ABOUT THE GOOD DAYS. LETS ALL MOVE ON.

[zoidberg96913]

Let me tell you something...Nazi soldier, American soldier, or marine whatever they all served their time in hell.

[zazone]

Wow i just saw Kurt Meyer.

[Za7a7aZ]

Maybe they can keep their next reunion at the bohemiangrove.....should be warm and cutly among friends

[enest94]

What? do people think Kurt "Panzer" Meyer had something to do with the camps? That guy is a hero! (I'm not a nazi, but that guy did heroic things that should me mentioned in history. he was a fine soldier)

[Heidelager]

@enest94 As a SOLDIER and an OFFICER, Kurth Meyer was the epitomy of what it means to COMMAND and be a COMMANDER.

[mark29682]

Thank you to those several thousand who protest the reunions of the notorious SS in Germany. However, in Israel no one protests reunions of notorious NKVD and other Soviet Communists units who murdered no less as many people as the Nazis. Apparently, a racist inability to empathize with non-Jewish victims of crimes against humanity exists among a nation that still has not come to terms that Jews predominated in the ranks of the Cheka and NKVD at the time of the worst Soviet atrocities.

[porty500]

@mark29682 Unfortunately my friend we live in a world that only remembers the bad deeds of the Germans. The deeds and atrocities of the Japs and allies conveniently pale away into insignificance even though our forefathers either committed them or were victims of them

In most parts of Europe holocaust denial gets you a jail term while denying the death marches in Burma or the ritual shooting of German and Ostlegion POWs at Normandy doesn't bat an eyelid

A very racist blinkered world indeed

[sternumagnum]

"Small" historical fact : The Waffen SS army groupings took extensive part in atrocities against civilians and POWs -- as did numerous Wehrmacht units. Historically established fact : The Wehrmacht, let alone the many SS fighting formations, were as guilty of war crimes as the worst of the camp "guardians". We can support or denounce their actions but there's no denying them.

[porty500]

@sternumagnum Yep and so did the British, Canadians, the US, the French, Russians etc etc.....

Each country has thier own atrocities, its just that the winners dug thiers a little deeper in the soil and are harder to find. Also history is always written with the victors pen so will never be truthful.

That 'holier than thou' attitude that people take against the Germans is totally laughable and very hypocritical.

No country was innocent in WW2 so don't judge the germans alone.

[sternumagnum]

@porty500 1. History *used* to be written ONLY by the victors but no longer, not in modern times. There are now more than one "witness" to events. Plus nobody can stop for ever information abt events. This is why we know abt Allies' atrocities. 2. Relativism is a dead end. Not all things are equal. The atrocities committed by the Axis' side dwarfs the Allies' atrocities. Anhone who questions this or dares put on the same scale Allies/Axis doesnt know his History - or is simply pro-Axis.

[porty500]

@sternumagnum I know my history very well and to be quite honest how can you rank one atrocity higher than another?

If a thief steals either $10 or $1000 he is still a thief. An atrocity is an atrocity. You cannot stand there and rate someones atrocity worse than someone elses, thats just absurd.

And as you know your history you will quite obviously be aware of the huge numbers of soviets murdered by Stalins regime which saw in excess of 50 million die, 10X more victims than the holocaust saw

[sternumagnum]

@porty500 Not all crimes are "equal", which is why not all punishments are the same. This aspect of the law is universal and going back to the dawn of civilisation. Surely, there's sometjhing to it. Accordingly, to argue that all crimes of war atrocities are the same is equally absurd. It is very true that, numerically, Stalin and his regime caused more civilian deaths (of Soviet citizens) than WWII did. But the nature of Nazi crimes is different and morally very worse than communist crimes...

[sternumagnum]

@porty500 Stalin and his henchmen were hutning down "class enemies" of whomever they deemed as an "enemy of the (communist) state". The Nazis were killing people simply for being what they were born into - gypsies, Slavs, Jews. The Nazi crimes and the communist crimes are numerically on a par (the communists may even claim the Gold in this) but there is no question that, in moral terms, Nazi ideology was the apex of human madness and the nadir of civilisation.

[porty500]

@sternumagnum Genocide has been going on for millenia, each having different reasons but each was as appalling as the next. The Nazi atrocities were no better or worse than any others. People lost thier lives and thats it.

To rate one atrocity higher than any other, like the Jews for instance is putting thier value higher than i don't know, a Cambodian killed by the Khmer rouge.

A lost life is a lost life. Thats it. No matter how or who, that life has gone.

So no, there is no difference.

[Heidelager]

@porty500 Then if you know your history "very well", you would know that to compare all the waffen SS to concentration camp guards is like comparing the entire Marine corp to the interorgaters at Guantanomo. :)l

[porty500]

@Heidelager

A post typical of the brainwashed fodder that surfs the net these days.

The Germans were no worse than anyone one else. We all had our atrocities, whether it was Treblinka, Cambodia, Eisenhowers murderous POW camps or the murder of 2.4 million Sudeten germans in 1945.

Taking a life, irrespective of race, colour or religion is appalling in every sense and to blame a single party as being worse than another is not only extremely blinkered but absurd in the highest order.

[Heidelager]

@sternumagnum I can certainly deny them, especially when brainwashed fools like you continue to repeat shallow and baseless garbage.

[sternumagnum]

@Heidelager Well, name-calling is cheap. The historical record (e.g. "Grand Delusion: Stalin and the German Invasion of Russia"; "The Enigma of Barbarossa") shows that the German Army was not just 'accomodating ' atrocities against locals in the East, and specifically Jews and commissars, not just assisting Waffen SS and the Einsatzgruppen in the butchering but ACTIVELY committing atrocities themselves! Even Guderian was guilty of ordering large-scale execution of civilian locals.

[Heidelager]

@sternumagnum As I said, shallow and baseless garbage repeated by brainwashed fools.

[EuroFascist]

these are not criminals, Kurt Myer was speaking, he is a well known part of the SS Panzer Corps.

[BunkerGearGal]

@EuroFascist The Waffen SS weren't criminals? Tell that to the people of Oradour sur Glane, of Poland, of many other places. The Waffen SS were SS, Algemeine, Waffen, Totenkopfverbandes . . . all the same. All carried The Sippenbuch as well as The SS Soldbuch!

[England5is5the5best]

@BunkerGearGal Seig heil!!,baby!!

[flamvile]

..... but just remember, we're all ultimately answerable for our actions. Karma .... what goes around comes around.

[flamvile]

Ahhh, bless, they were only following orders ..... if you can look yourself in the mirror before you go to bed at night & think, 'yeh, my conscience is clear', then fine. Sleep well.

[unraveledtree]

for real come on people they have different views accepting that is what makes us free

[grettoz]

should of bombed the bastards

[martynrobin121]

The german S.S division were the best in the world and had the best mordern weapons and equipment they were super soldiers and germany should respect them for fighting for there country! These men fought against evil russain communists mostly who turned the eastern europe into hell just like hitler did the S.S were great soldiers and any country would have bee proud to have them serving! Even the hitler youth S.S were super soldiers that fought agaisnt american and british allied forces west

[volvo4377]

WTF? Kurt Meyer died in 1961, and this looked like it was filmed in the early 80's.

[DaManzMoney]

@volvo4377 There is more than one Kurt Meyers around ya know but was that Kurt "Panzer' Meyer? talking or another Kurt Meyer?

[kzam717]

Remember though, organizations like police became automatically part of the waffen-ss (schutz-staffel=protective guard:does NOT mean a guard at a concentration camp).I doubt anybody who committed war crimes would show up to get recognized.Relax,just some old dudes looking for ppl who aren't bored already of the same old war stories...

[Knowyerfacts]

I have mixed feelings about this. I understand both sides.

[DaManzMoney]

@Knowyerfacts Your right alot of these guys had nothing to do with what happened but it did happen and they shouldn't celabrate it out of respect

[Knowyerfacts]

@DaManzMoney I do agree to a point... not all members of the reich served willingly... I dont know how I would have responded to Hitler as a German citizen knowing that protesting would have cost me my liberty and possibly my life... but the SS were a different breed. Those men were hard core Nazi's. They were elite and could not have achieved their rank without dedication to the Nazi cause. Certain parts of history need not be celebrated.... this being one of them.

[hermanthegerman1000]

It's reall quite sad to see people protesting something as simple as a reunion of war veterans. The vast majority of the people in the SS and wehrmacht were just regular people. Not everyone enjoyed the work they had to do and for many they had no choice it was either be loyal to the fuhrer or be put to death. The world has bigger things to worry about than the reunion of soliders from a different time and place.

[TheTruthMerchant]

What??

You think Germany declared war on Britain? Oh dear. Britain declared war to get Germans out of Poland. Check it. Britain then forgot to declare war when Russia invaded Poland too.

Churchill was not a strong leader. As my two quotes before show. (i) He made things worse for Poland (and the rest of Eastern Europe) for 50 years. (ii) He made fun of Chamberlain for trusting Hitler while saying Stalin was an honourable trustworthy chap!

And why the hell do you call me a Nazi? These are facts!

[ekimtoor]

No, it wasn't "panzer" Meyer, Kurt Meyer is a fairly common German name. I believe "Panzer" died around 1960.

[FOKKERization]

IS that actually Kurt ''Panzer'' Meyer at 1.24?? from Leibstandarte and Hitlerjugend? I know he was active in veterans organisations, im not sure when he deceased though..

For all morons who never touched a history book; during war this were COMBAT DIVISIONS

[MrJohnwarra]

I think its ridiculous how they attack the veterans. It was also the pilot? of the enola gay who the dropped the bomb and killed so many and said that he regretted nothing but did the news mostly say anything? no. When there is a Soviet reunion, does anyone ever protest? Anyways the waffen SS was not fullyinvolved with the camps.

[rtgoodson]

I just find it funny that the news anchor is asian. On a side note, who gives a damn if the SS hold a veterans meeting? Honestly, are we going to spit on these people for doing what they were told to do?

[firemarshall007]

@rtgoodson  Most were volunteers.

[yingdiskette]

Jew this Jew that. What about the 90 MILLION that died cause of Hitler? Fuck "Jews", they haven't done one thing for humankind, only proxy wars on behalf of Israel.

[TheTruthMerchant]

@yingdiskette 90 million died because Churchill declined Hitler's peace offers.

I am the TruthMerchant here to educated the ill informed.

[pammyoneto]

@TheTruthMerchant You are nothing short of a pilloch. Hitler did not want peace with England. Chamberlain wanted peace and visited Hitler on a couple of occasions with that in mind. Hitler was arrogant and dismissed Chamberlain.

Hitler was given the ultimatum that if he went into Poland, England would have no choice but to declare war with Germany. Hitler went into Poland and the rest is History.

Of course England didn`t want war but Hitler was not to be trusted.

[TheTruthMerchant]

@pammyoneto Well done on resorting to calling me names, how grown up. I am the TruthMerchant, I only speak facts. In response to your claims:

Hitler did not want peace??? Did Hollywood teach you this? You only have to look on YouTube to find loads of videos to show Hitler wanted peace. Here is a link for you: youtube.com/watch?v=hOIdDziGoA­s

England did not want war??? Why did Churchill not accept Hitler's peace offers then? ...........

[pammyoneto]

@TheTruthMerchant Couldn`t find the link.

[TheTruthMerchant]

@pammyoneto just put w w w. before youtube.com/watch?v=hOIdDziGoA­s

Hope this helps.

Glad to see you trying to educate yourself.

[grettoz]

@TheTruthMerchant

what are you on?? the peace offer as you call it meant nothing, how could you make peace with a man who sought european domination at least!! he even turned on his own so called allie russia...

[Greene8814]

@grettoz

And yet another retarded post from you. First of all, you are a stupid lemming. You don't know what Hitler sought. Secondly, how could anyone who was actually involved in these things when they were going on know what would happen in the future?

[TheTruthMerchant]

@pammyoneto And England claimed it had to declare war because Hitler invaded Poland. So why pray tell why did England not assist Poland with getting Germany out in 1939? What exactly did England do after declaring war in 1939?

A famous Churchill quote is: "I will not pretend that, if I had to choose between communism and nazism, I would choose communism." So can you please tell me how Churchill can claim to have won WWII, when at the end of it he left Poland to Communism and a worse position?

[pammyoneto]

@TheTruthMerchant Yes I believe the Polish people were let down by Churchill. Thanks for the link, I`ll check it out. Sorry for calling you a pilloch.

[grettoz]

@TheTruthMerchant

they were re arming for a long time of course!!

[grettoz]

@TheTruthMerchant

you need a check up from the neck up pal

[TheTruthMerchant]

@grettoz You say it would be impossible to accept a peace offer from Hitler because he sought European domination? Haha so why was Churchill happy to fight with USSR who invaded Poland in 1939, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Romania and Finland in 1940?? Chruchill as stated always preferred Nazism to Communism, so his decision not to make peace with Hitler meant the whole of Eastern Europe was invaded and lived under the misery of Communism for 50 years!

[grettoz]

@TheTruthMerchant

many deals had to be done at that time, better to have the russians on our side than allied to hitler, churchill never favoured nazism over communism, he hated both equally, how can you blame churchill for 50yrs of communism, learn your history

[TheTruthMerchant]

@grettoz Are you for real?????

Two quotes from Churchill: "I will not pretend that, if I had to choose between communism and nazism, I would choose communism." Britain started a world war to rescue Poland from Nazism. Churchill left them with worse as he admitted!

Stalin said he would let Poland have FREE elections. Churchill: "Poor Neville Chamberlain believed he could trust Hitler. He was wrong. But I don't think I'm wrong about Stalin." Oh dear.

Churchill = Deluded war mongering drunk

[grettoz]

@TheTruthMerchant

britain started the war???? what the fuck are you on?? thank god we had strong leaders like churchill & not appeasers like chamberlain!!! i suggest you hide away & polish your swastika, nazi boy....

[Greene8814]

@grettoz

You have got to be one of the stupidest people alive. If you don't even know it was Britain who declared war on Germany then you are completely out of your element and shouldn't say anything at all when it comes to National Socialists, World War II or anything that has to do with either. Shut your mouth and do whatever it is you do with your pathetic little existence. The best thing you could do is kill yourself so the rest of the world has one less moron to deal with.

[grettoz]

@Greene8814

you sub normal twat i know we declared war on the nazis.. is that the level of your so called intelligence????you sad nazi boys are the scum of the earth, would love to rip your head off & shit in the hole you pathetic piece of shit, now shut the fuck up prick

[globe255]

@Greene8814 If Great Britain, Russia, an finally USA hadnt been involved in the WWll we would all had been a part of a nazi regime today. I know the resistance movement in my country had a good cooperation with Great Britain and the USA- thanks god for that.

[PaulHartXYZ]

Keep the outsiders OUT of Germany.

I think the ϟϟ did a great job.

I smoke cigars too, let's be friends.

[RICHARDTOMLEY10WHARF]

were they waffen ss or actual concentration camp guards ,i suppose, it does not matter they were made an illegal organisation at end of war ,terrible things happened the world over then

[paolosilv]

Are these actual guards or ss soldiers? I doubt that concentration camp guards if alive , would show their faces.

[bm534]

these SS men might of never even had anything to do with the concentration camps.

[BS1965able]

not all who served in the SS worked at the camps,

[Freedom3777]

They are humans who served there people, you cannot get killed if you have not invaded there country.  Also

In the internment centers between 100,000 to 150,000 Jews died, mostly from Tuberculosis and Allies bombed out all food storage sources and medical supplies.

The so called Holohoax never happened.

Everybody knows that

[jrwel14]

@Freedom3777 Everyone knows that you are a fool! Why do you deny what your idols did ? are you ashamed of it ? Or, are afraid of the truth?

[paolosilv]

Peiper becomes notorious for ordering the machine-gunning of a number of captured G.I.s from the U.S. 7th Armored Division in a field near Malmedy.

1944 December 20 By this date, SS Col. Peiper has allegedly murdered approximately 350 prisoners of war and at least 100 unarmed Belgian civilians at twelve different locations along his route. (Secrets)

[jt123egypte]

We missed a great opportunity to kill 600 of these criminals at once. A good nazi is a killed one! This has nothing to do with the Germanpeople from 2010 but with a generation of cowards and killers.

[dubmywub]

So every single person who had to be a nazi under German rule should be dead?

[BillyvonDumpling]

jt123egypte,

It would be fun to piss in your mouth,but unfortunately you would enjoy it too much.

You need a shower.

[paolosilv]

@jt123egypte Thumbs up

[HokiesAndDawgs]

@jt123egypte

You're a complete idiot. They were the ones fighting the war. You realize the USSR, our (USA) ally, is reponsible for 10s of millions of more murders than the Nazis, right? Coward sums you up.

[jt123egypte]

@HokiesAndDawgs ...hé kid, you are only 23.What are you talking about? You were not there ignorant fool!

[HokiesAndDawgs]

@jt123egypte

Apparently, I have a better grasp of history than you do. Not too mention my family came from Germany, fool.

[jt123egypte]

@HokiesAndDawgs... I am old enough to be your grandfather kid.Let me think...your grandfather was a fled looser by the SS. Is that what you mean? Those Nazi's were only scum, thieves and murderers? Göring, Hitler, Himmler all that cowards committed suicided. Es waren nur untermenschen! Wir haben Sie ausgerottet! Guter Nazis sind nur toter!

[HokiesAndDawgs]

@jt123egypte

Yeah, and our "ally" Stalin and the USSR were so great, right? You realize Stalin is responsible for the most murders of any dictator in history, right?

[Forsaken284]

@jt123egypte You sir are a bafoon..

[dogterd]

I'd rather live in a whole neighborhood of former SS veterans than with negroes. I do like to watch negroes on television though, on shows like "COPS", and "The First 48", featuring a parade of blacks reciting such time honored dialogue as "I ain't did nuthin' man!"

[Gott0300]

But YOU know, eh?!?

[Danie9989]

this just pisses me off first of all my before you guys call me a nazi my famly fought agenst germany in both world wars. but here is the exuivelent of some american soldiers holding a reunion and then a mob of protesters saying that they droped the atomic bomb. If all the vetrans in the video are former waffen ss soldiers there is nothing wrong about it and the should not be convicted of crimes they did not do. I am not a denier of any german war crimes

[DERZWERGE11]

hipochresy! pal! ur right- let them enjoy while they can

[Danie9989]

@DERZWERGE11 thanks i belive they should be able to have as big of a right to hold reunions as allied soldiers

[PrUnEJuIcEtHeThIrD]

@Danie9989 Yeah, but Waffen-SS guards were in CHARGE of the Concentration camps...

So... yeah that's pretty awkward.

[Danie9989]

@PrUnEJuIcEtHeThIrD well thats an absolutely different story if they were guards of camps. sorry anyone who was offended i wrote it long ago.

[JedskoPoz]

kurt meyer - killed 45 canadian war prisoners.....WTF ?
