How sad (2 Viewers)

Well, there is the pushing of superstition over science. There's BIG $$$$ behind that. Wasn't sure if you meant that the Muslims weren't getting the blame for this.

And Otto Schindler obviously wasn't a Nazi, he was a German forced to pretend he was a Nazi, QUOTE]

Really? Otto Schindler joined a pro-Nazi Sudetenland Party in 1935; he was allegedly a spy for German military intelligence and thus imprisoned in Czechoslovakia. He subsequently joined the Nazi party in February 1939 – months before the war. In the first few weeks of the war he was in Poland to see how he could make money from events. Not sure how much pretending was going on then. Schindler also regularly called himself a Nazi.

If we take your statement – ‘The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi’ – what should have happened to Schindler? Should he have been at Nuremburg? Schindler, though we all would agree was a very, very rare exception.

I do not presume to lecture anyone on the Nazi’s – just make an observation that things are not always black and white.

And so we are clear, I have only contempt for the Nazi’s and also many ‘ordinary’ Germans, of that generation, who were willingly involved in numerous atrocities. (Read: Reserve Police Battalion 101 to see what I mean by 'ordinary' Germans). I will spare you the details of the sacrifice my family made in both World Wars.

Guys,I had no intention of causing any arguments here,I was just pointing out how sad and sickening the actions of these morons was in desecrating the graves of the young men who died so they could live free from German rule.

What gives me heart is that we all feel the same on here in regards to the revulsion we feel towards this act.

As long as it's a call to action to protect these places rather than to just go "tsk tsk" and blame the "kids these days" and the media. Look at all the ancient stone statues with the noses and other parts broken off.
