I knew a German guy who lived through it as a child, and he said that after the war, finding a dead dog to eat in the rubble was a real treat. He also mentioned trying to go back to work in Germany in the '60's as a dock worker, and said much of the Nazi mentality was still present. This is all hearsay, though he was not someone I would have doubted. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, nablusoss1008 <no_reply@...> wrote: > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Ann" <awoelflebater@> wrote: > > > > > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, doctordumbass@ <no_reply@> wrote: > > > > > > Well, they really *did* lean over the edge of civilization a tad too far, > > > with the whole holocaust/genocide thingie...Fair or not, it tends to > > > leave a really bad first impression with others. > > That's no excuse for the indoctrination of generations of young Germans who > had nothing to do with Nazi-Germany. > > . > > > > Yes, it is a shame there has to be repercussions for bad actions but ugly > > architecture and the lack of a German national anthem sung in the halls of > > academia are hardly on the scale of millions of people gassed, tortured and > > roasted alive.
