Oh..please , almost all of us have our own distorted views, which have been brought down to us, by our ancestors, our education systems ( depending on which country , you were born and brought up) and the effect of propoganda (both allied and axis), off course. At times, we choose to neglect these thoughts , or merely our prejudices and beliefs fail to see reason. For eg. there were millions of people in Britain (including the so called idol of Britain, Mr.Churchill) who cited crimes against Humanity against the Nazis when they were pounding Britain and murdering the jews, when they themselves had inflicted pain , oppression and torture throughout the globe for centuries, and yet they shamelessly wanted the same people to fight on their side.hucks216 wrote:Panzermahn, it is obvious from your comments here and in other threads that you have a very distorted/biased view of the German Armed Forces in WW2 in that they were the hard done by ones and whatever they did was within reason. For that reason I am no longer repsonding to anything you post.Panzermahn wrote:..Consider the treatment meted out to captured German officers in the Western Front.

Another thing of abjunct hypocrisy is that while Britain repaid America through out these years for the manpower, armaments and food it provided under the lend-lease act, it never repay or even apologize to its commonwealth. .. I hope that i have got my point across that prejudices, hypocrisy and bias of some form would be present in all of us, and all of our comments need not hold water, always, and there is no need to act so self righteous against a member. You may politely ask him to quote the source of his information and his/her views.
