Denazification never got near "stupid proportions".

It would have if they had charged every SS secretary.

QuoteThe Soviets came down much harder and East Germany wasn't an anarchy.

Yeah there is a model to be praised and emulated. Not a vestige of the authoritarian police state left behind.

I doubt it.  Still, I'm okay with it.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

They should have executed most adults in the South for treason after the Civil War, but they decided not to. Politics man.

We did not execute anybody. Still has not stopped whiny lost causers from bitching about all the revenge that taken on the South. They were made to allow black people to vote (for awhile...), clearly a fate worse than execution.

Oh right. Good catch! But it was not for treason, it was for murder.

AFAIK no Andersonville radio operators were executed.

Yeah, but every SS secretary and radio operator didn't serve at a concentration camp.

Because it was his fault the blockade worked so well.

Well he was convicted of personally shooting innocent men with witnesses. Witnesses who, after the war, were not his friends :P

It was harder to get together with your old SS buddies after the war.

So it is an accusation that she was charged? :unsure:

The fact that someone is charged is of no relevance to guilt or innocence.  That's a key difference between the modern German criminal justice system and the Nazi era one.

You told me I needed one fact about what had happened a minimum for having a discussion. I think I managed that.
