President Bush thanks Pope Benedikt "Awesome speech"

Actually he deserted the army.
Just the facts, mein trottel.

So HE says...

You're an ignorant child and for a student, you research skills patently blow. ALL German teens as of 1939 were Required by law to join the Hitler youth and it is well-documented that Pope Benedict deserted the German army in 1945 and hid at the family house in Traunstein until he was taken prisoner by the Americans.
You should actually THINK for a second before you Slander someone you trottel.

«Compulsory membership was first defined in 1936 and reinforced in 1939, not in 1941 as he says. Ratzinger also says that he was still too young at the time, but he was 14 in 1941 and not too young at all: between the ages of 10 and 14, membership in the Deutsche Jungvolk (a group for younger children) was mandatory. Yet there is no mention of Raztinger belonging. If he had managed to avoid the required membership in the Deutsche Jungvolk, why did he suddenly join the Hitler Youth in 1941?»

I jsut told you - he joined in 1941 because he was forced to and he was age 14 at the time. And he deserted just as I said to hide out in Traunstein and was taken prisoner, and in a POW camp, by the Americans. You basically slandered him and there is absolutely no excuse for that.
