Its simple really , on the one hand you have people doing really nasty stuff because they view their victims as sub-human who were responsible for capitalism , communism ,the economic crisis , tuberculosis , the plague , germanys defeat in WWI , bad agricultural yields and 101 other made up "reasons".......and on the other hand you have people doing really nasty stuff because these genocidal maniacs had come to their countries as aggresors and slaughtered lots and lots of people for purely bollox reasons .
Both sides did nasty stuff , but they are in no way equivalent . So your attempt to portray them as equal is pure unadulterated bollox .


Yes and interesting questions they might be , like how was it that the deportations of Hungarians from czechoslovakia was matched by deportations of chechs and slovaks from Hungary ? apart from one little discrepency ...the little discrepancy being the third of the total Hungarian deportees who didn't count in the reciprocal population exchange because they had moved to Czecoslaovakia after Hungary had taken over part of the territory in agreement with the Nazis .
So I suppose that third kinda comes back to the 500,000 new German settlers put out of eastern territories , they must be removed from the equation to make it fair as they shouldn't have been there at all .After all you cannot complain about people losing their home and job through deportation when they had only just stolen it themselves .







Good Lord! I am in complete agreement with a Tribesman post. Whoever is watching over the seventh seal, please give it a quick check!
