When I think of these times, I think of all those people herded off those camp trains at night. The freezing weather, the guard dogs snarling, glareing flood lights, no food or water, and whips being used.. After they were taken off to their doom, the long lines of feces on the ground where they stood moments before..They were so frightened they relieved themselves. RIP to all these innocent people.

The Germans started the air war with their Stuka Dive Bombers when they invaded Poland with their Blitzkrieg tactics. And they continued their air assault over the city of London making every attempt to destroy it, (paving the way for an invasion of London)and killing thousands of people.So, the Germans can take full responsibility for being the people that created a holocaust in the air and on the ground.

@Skandalos

Oh comical, its the Germans fault.

Like the U.S. bombing of Germany was anything but a holocaust as well.

Some pictures of gas chambers would have strengthened your story further.

@altmarkmaik This isnt about democracy. Did you forget that Hitler had been elected in the first place? In democratic elections? No, the reason for this crap is the character of the Germans. And it didnt change one bit since then.

Hello! I live near the crime scene in the former GDR.

Something like this must never be forgotten.

About 1,000 people were burned alive and the perpetrators were never caught or could in the old Federal Republic of Germany, see slip.

The GDR was a dictatorship, undemocratic and could not travel freely but such criminals were almost always unmasked and condemned.

I do not want DDR again but the old West Germany was not democratic.
