From everything I've read - including first hand accounts from Americans - the Germans were a civil people.
They weren't the murderers we've been made to believe.
Hitler is portrayed as a one dimensional comic book super villain and I don't buy it. I don't think he was inherently hateful and he never wanted war. The indigenous Germanic people of danzig were being persecuted by the poles and that's a fact. Before ww1 danzig wasn't part of Poland at all and after ww1 they were treated like garbage. It was justified. Americans put the Japanese in concentration camps its no different. Also Americans dropped and nuclear bomb on civilians in Japan, the fire bombing of Dresden. George s Patton admitted we defeated the wrong enemy. The communists in Russia murder a significant larger amount of people, and people that were primarily white Christians. 9/10 of the men in charge of gulags were Jewish too, they imprisoned, tortured and murdered primarily white people many of who were Christians.
I don't think we can trust the communist reports /claims of what they found in the eastern concentration camps, and its real strange that ONLY the camps the Russians discovered were death camps. Maybe it's not true.
Before ww1 because Germany is land locked and lack of natural resources they resorted to engineering, manufacturing, etc, they had one of the only well trained, professional standing armies in Europe whereas the rest of the armies were essentially conscripted peasents, so the German kaiser was labeled a war monger and this is not a fact not a matter of perspective. The Germans were treated completely unfairly in the treaty of Versailles, which was heavily influenced by greedy financial cartel families who practiced extreme nepotism and took over Germany after ww1 introducing horrible things to a people that were deprived and backed into a corner.
