Shame, especially cultural shame, is the most difficult emotion to bear. Openness and examination are the best antidotes that we have for shame. We can learn lessons from our past, but we will learn nothing by glossing over the atrocities of the past. Once we free ourselves from shame, we can learn to live bravely, freely, in harmony with those around us. Eventually, evil falls under its own weight. The braver we are, the freer humanity will be. Thank-you for this documentary.

Forgive the intrusion but I can’t believe the concentration camp victims would agree that shame in any form is more difficult than starving to death, dying in the gas chambers, etc. I do agree that shame is not the answer nor is blaming descendants. Nonetheless, however uncomfortable, these discussions must occur because when the world loses that willingness, it allows the sin to occur in the dark again & again. I pray that light is shined on all instances of evil, particularly that which I myself hesitate to see. 🙏 Thanks.

My father was born in Poland and was one of less than 100 people who survived from his town's 3000 Jews, he and his father and older sister, because they fled in time and were taken to a slave labor camp for refugees in Russia. His little sister perished in the summer of 1942 in a death camp in Poland (Belzec) at age 20 along with all his aunts, uncles and cousins (except 2) and all the Jews of the region. After the war, he emigrated to USA and his father and older sister emigrated to Israel. His father refused to accept any reparation money from Germany for the death of his daughter (and his mother and his two sisters and their families).

This is a truly horrible . In the 1960's we as school children were required to watch what we called "the camp" movies. They were a mixture of what the Americans filmed when they opened the concentration camps along with the films the Nazi's films they showed the atrocities they committed...the gas chambers, the dead people being picked up in a backhoe and thrown on top of each other into an open pit (even those who were still alive). They were repulsive and some of us threw up. This went on for 4 or 5 years. This was done so that "THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN!" I personally believe strongly that these films be shown now, again! I've been saying this since Vietnam! . This is more important than ever. Show these to everyone but especially in America, Russia, the Middle East and China. We are on the verge of WWIII. It seems that this is "HAPPENING AGAIN!" We must stop this insanity NOW in this nuclear age. PRAY for this situation and for our politicians who are leading us in this endeavor. Pray very hard.and frequently!

When they found these and the 101st airborne found some after hearing stories from the Soviet soldiers that found some in Poland, they contacted Dwight Eisenhower, who was the US army general, but the allied expeditionary force in Europe in the USA and asked him if he could come see this. He came briefly along with general Patton and some of their American generals. Eisenhower got out of Dodge and went back to his post in Britain, where he spent a lot of time with Churchill and the American generals on the ground drove their jeeps down to this town about 3 miles away and had every single person in that town who was an adult woman and man walk up to this concentration camp.. ewwww. The children were left behind with teenagers and babysitters, but every woman adult and male adult civilian walked down to the concentration camp and the men stood there looking stoically, and the women were crying and crying, and everybody was saying they didn’t know anything about it.. huh??? the general said. “ you are all lying to me because there’s no way you can live two or 3 miles down the road and not smell this place.!!!” “ some of you have cars and certainly you drove past here.” The local people who said they drove down that road passing the camp saw people out working but they believed they were just farming, etc. etc. and they didn’t see dead bodies and train cars and I’m sure the Nazis tried their best to conceal all that from the locals. I’m certain they tried to conceal the worst of the worst, which is why they put people in poison showers and cremated them but the ones he starved to death they put in these trains and when the Germans left suddenly & abandoned camps, they left a lot of the Jewish and other concentration camp victims who were still alive or barely alive, locked up. What happened was that the Nazis got the hell out of there & in their haste to escape the allies, they left visuals. The trains were not inside the camp and the only reason people couldn’t drive down the road and see anything going on is because the open side of the train was facing the camp and not the road but I don’t see how they couldn’t smell it and I’m certain they had to smell it. they knew the antisemitism that was going on, and they were all a part of it for the most part, except for some of the people that lived out in the country that never trusted Hitler or the Nazi regime because even general Rommel and several German soldiers were never Nazis.

God bless you and I’m so sorry it made you sick because I grew up in the USA and I saw these documentaries from the age of six years old and it’s sickening just like what happened over in the far east when the Japanese invaded Southeast Asia including China in the Philippines. It was brutal and the marines and navy fought over in the Pacific and after the victory was over in Europe, some of the army soldiers did get sent into the Pacific and they were angry because they thought they would get to go home. The few that did get sent over to the Pacific said that they were thankful to God that they were in the US Army and not the US Marines island hopping doing one land amphibious operation after another island hopping like the marines did because the few times they did have to battle on the island going to back up some marines and supplies that what they saw was the most sadistic they’ve ever seen and that it was worse than what they saw in Germany and Europe. I couldn’t believe anybody could be more sadistic, but in a couple documentaries marines said what the Japanese would do to their POW was so sadistic that they were trying their best to buy the Geneva Convention, but the Japanese would act like they were going to surrender and come out with grenades, throwing them at the marines so for the longest time they wouldn’t take surrender and they would shoot the Japanese if they attempted to surrender because they knew they wouldn’t because it was against their Japanese honor code. It’s so sad because even in Japan, the government like the politicians in the military and not the emperor, but the politicians have these poor people believing that rather than to lose to commit suicide and so many committed suicide when the Japanese surrendered in World War II ultimately. However, general MacArthur and President Harry Truman said the reason they decided to drop the nuclear bombs is because they knew a land invasion would result in the death of at least 1.5 million allies and maybe nine or 10 million Japanese and they didn’t want that to happen because a nuclear bomb would be approximately 100,000 per bomb and it ended up being around 150,000 per bomb, and that includes the fallout. Any civilian death is heartbreaking but initially it was about 130,000 and then the worst part were those 15 or 20,000 that died over the course of weeks or a few months from radiation poison. if that would’ve happened to me, I would’ve wanted to be right at Ground Zero where it happened so I wouldn’t have to suffer later, but so many of those people survived with only a few burns. They say the only thing that hurts them are the memories they have and a few of them were alive, but they were a little kids in 1945. The ones who are alive now in Japan are well up into their 80s almost 90 and the majority of them are deceased by now.. the thing was they didn’t have hard feelings towards the USA because as they grew up and learned in school, even after the USA was no longer occupying and rebuilding Japan, they were told that the Japanese did wrong. I think the same was taught in Germany, but in Russia, I don’t think they’ve ever talked about the atrocities committed by Vladimir Lennon and Joseph Stalin..

Science increasingly discovers that even behaviors are Genetic, about half of everything seemingly human and connected to Environment has more or less Correlation in Genetics. for me as an Orthodox Christian, That proves Sin is in our Genetics, Physical proof of our Fallen Nature, that the Capacity to Sin (Original Sin of Inheriting the Guilt of Adam and Eve is Heresy in Orthodoxy, St. Augustine who founded the Teaching simple got it from a Badly Translated Latin Bible, mostly because many Greek words don't have Equals in Latin. Orthodox Believe that the Forbidden Fruit changed our Nature Directly), the Restoration of which through Communion and Theosis (to get to know the Will of God through Fasting, Prayer, and Mystical Processes) is the Only Restoration. Repentance makes Remission worthwhile for the Lord Jesus Christ who splits his body and pours his blood for the Forgiveness of Sins. St. Alexander of Munich, an Orthodox Martyr, Founder of the White Rose Resistance in Nazi Germany, and my Patron Saint who was tried and took his cross after Christ in late 1943 when he was Executed by the Nazis. most of his life means something to me. Soldier, Cavalrymen (both from Compulsory Service in Austria after Anschluss 1938), later Medic (he was a Medical student trying to become a Doctor like his Father was when he was Called to the Front by Nazi Authorities) on the Eastern front where he Converted. He Raised by an Orthodox Nanny ( who moved with him to Germany after His Mother died in Russia during the Russian Civil War in 1922, his Father was German Roman Catholic and Medical Doctor. his Mother's Father was an Orthodox Priest though it played little to no influence, all the Women in his Family were Orthodox. 2 Cultural Nationals Mixing like that was almost Unheard of at the time except in the US. Very Welcome in Orthodoxy as the only Allegiance to God is within the Kingdom of Heaven). As an American the Soldier can be a Militiamen, the Checks and Ballance of the People in the US Constitution elaborated by it's Author in the Explanative Federalist Papers notably Paper No.46. Cavalrymen hits for me because I grew up with Horses. A Medic, a significant notion to me, I Envision the one I shall take in Marriage to be a Strong-hearted, Strong-Willed healer who isn't afraid to Fight for who they're Caring for; a Saying in the Orthodox Church, is that "To become Betrothed to what you seek, you must become it yourself." I often joke about taking this Parable Literally (to be fair I was Born with my Mother's Dumptruck that my Generation is so Obsessed about these days, Feels weird because I'm a Dude.), and the Work that had him Martyred; Writing against Modernist Political Degeneracy. Slavery like how the Nazis Implemented it was condemned as a Degeneration as "Degradation" on the Theological Image of God; St. Alexander wrote to the Death the Truth as Fruit motivated by his Faith, he Wrote every Pamphlet Printed by the White Rose Resistance, he chose the Name White Rose in Memory of a Russian Fairytale his Mother used to tell him that included a White Rose. I frankly write Essays, any more ruins the Impact of my Claimage to feeling any what Relatable to it. of the Entire White Rose Resistance, he was the only Orthodox Christian. and yes, before one Asks, I'll be as Transparent if one can melt my Autism and Introversion Away, I'm otherwise too Direct yet hard to Understand because it's not normal to put all the details needed on a single sentence in an unusual order, causing a bad case of Verbal Hanging Clauses requiring it to be said multiple timed in order to understand context all because my Brain is wired so differently that I get analytical about details. it's not uncommon for me to assume Common Sense with only Book Sense and end up at the wrong side of a Misunderstanding because of course people don't give a crap about dictionaries in a Living Language. I tend to assume the People I talk to can keep up with me when i feel safe in assuming I can Continue an inquiry of a detail hinging on the Definition of the Word they said only to realize by meant a Better Matching Synonym Instead. In the West Theology means to Study God, in the East, it means to Get to Know God, Theologians historically were those who became Close in Relation to God, like a Personal Relationship of Sorts maintained through Faith and Works. The main Mechanic of the Holy Trinity for how 3 individuals share the Same Will and Identity as God is called Hypostatic Union of which can by described partly in Philosophical terms. God the Father is the Will, The Son is the Intention or Expression of the Father, and the Holy Spirit is the Action. It's not Perfect, at Least English like all Languages made by Man cannot describe God as a whole, however the Holy Spirit can implant Ideas. to Hear the Voice of the Spirit is to speak with God, but also to exchange Catharsis that one is finally ready to partake in a mental endosymbiosis with the lord, the implantation of his will in thy own mind, together and in Union as a True Understanding is between Creator, the Begotten (didn't Require Creation to be Realized) and Created. it'll never be perfect unless one comes back to God, Repents of thier Sin not looking for this, yet is Chosen and Trusted by the Will of God to receive Revelation of which the Constitution is the Rock of the Church, a Containment against Runaway Zeal and Spiritual Poison Alike. Cellular Mitochondria were once thier own Organism but merged with Other Organisms, and became one. Mitochondria processes in taken material and convert it to Energy, just as the Soul is Energized by Grace to perform Miracles. it's no Hivemind for God loved Freewill to the Point that he allowed Evil to Exist. it's what we do that he Judges us For, but he gives Grace to Victims of Grave Sins. The Communists starved Orenburg, Malnutrition struck St. Alexander's Mother which killed her, but little Shurrick (St. Alexander's maternal Nickname by his Mother and Nanny) wasn't abandoned to be Motherless, instead he was Adopted by a Laywoman (who I call Nanny, I forget her Actual Name) who for the sake of both God and Alexander's Father didn't co-create Remarriage. Prayer is seen as Collective in Orthodoxy, Prayer for the Dead, the Suffering, the Sick, and the Good. Hope in those Prayers, and unconditional love for Fellow Man in Honor to God as Christ Commanded to Love thy Neighbor as thy love thy lord; the Prayer as Works paid their effort in Grace and they Spent thier Grace for many Blessings including ensuring St. Alexander didn't Grow up Motherless. That's God's Mercy, the Innocent who die Regardless are interceded for by the Merciful amongst the Dead and Risen who maintained thier Good Faith to the End, that is Intercession and the Key Role of Saints on all of our Lives as Orthodox. Sainthood is Reserved for those who were Known and have Infallible Defenses to thier Salvation, like the Various Great People of History. Socrates and Plato are both considered to have earned this Defense as Pagans who never knew of Christ for what they Defended aligned with God and the Laws they Knew, however they're not known to Orthodoxy like we know of the Prophets, Apostles, and Saints of the Scriptures and Church. Only a Certain Infallible Defense is what all Saints Share, be it Martyrs, those Who Suffered for Confessions of Faith, and those like St. Olga of Kyiv who despite thier Grave Sins like Atrocities protected the Church as Rulers in a Land full of Pagans, and those whose Bodies and Bones have Miracles of thier own, thier Icons interceding for us, and the Like. The Grace of the Saints and the worthy even allow the Least who taught Hypocrisy and Heresy to enter Heaven, for that's the Power of Grace and Forgiveness. the Church as blessed by the Holy Spirit on Pentecost inherited the Responsibility from Christ to ensure the Salvation of Believers by Healing them of that Sin in thier every Fiber of being (Pun, Muscle strands are called Fiber, most Organs like the Heart are similar types of Tissue). like Healing a Broken Leg, one must Repent from wasting the Healing until some day, the Leg Bone is Fully Healed and Restored, alas the ability to walk without Pain is Restored, a Mundane Miracle in the Body likewise Reflected in the Sacraments of the Church. what caused that Injury is Sin itself in this Metaphor, Church is the Hospital, Therapist and Educator of how to Upkeep the Proverbial Spiritual Body along with thine own body whose Genetics script Sin. like the Angel and Devil on the Shoulders Cliche, the War against Sin is to be Pulled between influences of the Human Spirit in God's Image, and the Works of the Flesh as instructed by Genetics. likewise the Gift to partake in Addictive Sins is a Pre-conditioning of Chasity. That Gift is like tasting a Lollypop only once and not Licking it again, behest licking into a Sweet Brown like many deep Chocolate the Euphemisms for Poo in many folk sayings. if given time and trust to be constructed, Plenty of Confessions will be this detailed as a Rapport of one's Sins in the Sacrament of Confession the forgiveness completing the Rapport before Remission by the Priest as Proxy serving as Christ in the Sacrament. The Ordained Ears as those of our Lord and Savior. thus to Become a Proxy, the Purpose of Orthodox is to Die Daily, to Crucify the Flesh Daily. I'm a Man who confesses Hypocrisy a potential Benefactor for Forgiveness, for I Regurgitate Theory without Grades proving Proficiency, but i believe this in it's own rights is Work as a Confessor. Knowledge is Birthright i deal in like Alms to Honor thee in the Image of God as I honor the Lord, I merely Hope the Holy spirit serves as Attaché for my Language pun intended if I get Vulgar. in the end I receive my Own Rapport of more Patches to be Implemented in my Moral Code. Amen.

I was born in Australia, all my family from Germany. On my mothers side 1 Great-Grandfather was in Wehrmacht. He served in Poland, France, North Africa, went to Italy for R & R then sent to Stalingrad. A Red Cross letter my great-grandmother received to confirm what happened to him confirmed that he was wounded in combat in Stalingrad, was sent to an airfield for evacuation, but the Soviets captured the airfield on Christmas Eve 1942 (Tatsinskaya Field, I think). He was marched into captivity, made it to a prisoner camp, died there One relative was a German communist and we are guessing he was Jewish. He fought against the Nazis in Berlin during their rise to power, lived in the poorest Berlin suburb in a tenement flat, was arrested by Gestapo in final days of the war and hung in the street for passing out leaflets urging people to stop working for the Nazis by one of the death squads. Two great-uncles were at Stalingrad, one killed there, the other returned home as one of 5,000 who returned from a gulag in 1955, long after everyone assumed him dead (his younger brother, my grandfather, had already moved here to Australia and settled, then received a letter from his mother, the letter saying his father had just passed away, but that his brother had just returned from Russia) Another great-uncle was killed in northern France, he was in one of Rommel's Panzer units and killed somewhere in the Ardennes, exactly where Rommel was pushing his tanks through when no one thought it possible. His grave is there and he shares the grave with a Sergeant Siegfried München. Another great-uncle, married into the family, was wounded at Stalingrad, lost a foot, was in a prison camp to help rebuild the city, he returned in 1950 to marry my great-aunt My grandfather was Hitler Youth, was arrested by the Americans when they came to town in 1945. He escaped out the back of a truck near home and fled into the forest (in the Harz Mountains). He hid out there with a ragtag group of Wehrmacht and Waffen SS to resist, as far as he was concerned he was defending his country. The war ended and the Americans convinced them to come out and surrender. He was then made to work in the US Air Force Laboring Unit, at what became Ramstein Air Base. He did well, as he could already speak English. He learned to use the big dozers and became a plant operator and rose in the ranks, becoming a Motor Sergeant. He then was allowed to take a discharge and he made his way here to Australia. His future trips back to Germany were funded by the pension he received from the US Air Force, right up until he died in 2008 My fathers side His father was German merchant navy based in Lübeck. His ship was fired at and sunk by the Soviet Navy on June 22nd 1941 after the invasion. The navy crew had no idea that the invasion had started so when the Russians took them in as prisoners, they said they were allies but the Russians then told them. They escaped from captivity. He never joined the military, he hated the Nazis and refused. His older brother joined an SS Panzer Division, and the two brothers never spoke ever again. The brother survived the war. Oddly, both brothers ended up in Australia. My grandfather settled in Wodonga, his brother settled in Adelaide. One grandmother grew up in Berlin during the war, the other in German-occupied Czechoslovakia. The one in Czechoslovakia, her father was a newspaper writer, got arrested by the Gestapo for writing articles calling Hitler a pig and all sorts. He came back home, beaten to a pulp and all his teeth knocked out. He got metal teeth, recovered and then went back to writing more articles against Hitler and the Nazis. The Gestapo destroyed the office in retaliation. He died in 1978. Some of my dad's father's cousins were in Waffen SS as well, but the family never spoke to them again. Both were killed in the opening of the Battle of the Bulge in 1945 when the Germans broke back through the Ardennes. Big variety in the family, some who resisted the Nazis, some who were pro-Nazi and others who just did their duty for Germany. Of course, when I was going to school in the 1990s, having German ancestry meant I was obviously Hitler's love child and I was directly responsible for the Holocaust and other atrocities, same as in high school in the 2000s. But it was always fun pointing out the atrocities committed by all the other countries kids came from as I was considered a history buff and am still considered such

I did a tour with the US Army in Nuremberg from 1979-1982. I loved my time there. I love Germany. The Germans I knew, I lived in an apartment building with German civilians, we had German civilians who worked on our Kaserne, were all great and treated me, my wife and our daughter, who was born in Germany, with respect and kindness. But there was a reticence to talk about their past. Conversations would immediately get changed when WWII was discussed. I remember one time when my friend and I were coming back from a road trip to Kaiserslautern (or “K Town” as the GIs called it) we pulled off the autobahn to a gasthaus for lunch. We walked in and went up to the bar to ask for a beer and I saw a photo of Adolph Hitler behind the bar. My friend and I looked at each other and left. There is truth in that Germany was not fully de-Nazified. Even so, Germany is a great nation and I encourage Americans to visit. Frankly, I’d rather go back to Germany than France. The French are not friendly AT ALL!

The French are wonderful people. Maybe it's your warmongering country they don't like. The US floated German currency and by 1950 Germany was booming economically while the rest of us that fought them (yes, we were in for 6 years) were still on rationed food and living among destroyed property. They rewarded those nazis, the people who imposed two world wars upon us. I lived in a family with a lot of aunts, and few uncles. I had many older cousins with no father. They would have got no rewards from me. Not on your life. And BTW, Britain, France and Russia went home years ago. WHY are you americans still occupying Germany? Can't you take the hint?

No, it isn't. Nazism was a short-lived ideology which very quickly reached it logical conclusion, the attempted mass extermination of an entire race of people. Slavery was a practice as old and as far-flung as human history; as practiced in American states, both north and south, it neither called for nor resulted in an attempted genocide. The US census of 1860 indicated that the states which later seceded had enslaved populations ranging from 25% to 57% of their total populations; a genocidal policy comparable to the Nazi holocaust would have meant killing all those people, not leaving them as a significant proportion of the total population. Nothing in the history of slavery in the US even begins to compare with death camps and an aggressive war of extermination.

That’s absolutely heartbreaking and if she was not born, when Adolf Hitler was alive, she’s probably seeing pictures and documentaries about him. Joseph Stalin was more of a monster and you never heard people talk about the 50 million or more people that he killed but they make a bigger deal out of Nazi Germany . Certainly if the Nazi regime could’ve gone on, they would’ve killed more like the Soviets, but between the Russia Civil War, the Russian revolution followed by Stalin thousands of officers purged in addition to him starving Ukrainians on purpose to have the money to industrialize, & ALL People who were not criminals, but bourgeoisie or proletariat sent to the Gulag was pure evil. Communist China slaughtered twice as many as the Soviet union between 1949 and the 1970s when Mao was in charge and now we don’t really know. China was closed back then and all we know now is that the youth that are few because of the one child per family can’t be bombed and shot at by the military like their grandparents, etc. in the 60s because of the one child per family and often times once ultrasound was invented, families would always have boys to carry on the family name and get better jobs and they would have abortions with baby girl pregnancies. These people in Germany, who had relatives that were Nazis have no control over what happened in the past.. i’ve been working on my graduate and history and the majority of people even living in the western world today don’t realize it, but if they were living at the time in Germany and in Western Europe and general, when the stock market crashed and definitely the great depression occurred in the USA.

Brits in the Boer War. The term Concentration Camp was coined by them for holding Boer women and children, and starving to death thousands of them.

Don’t forget that even though that Generation of Germans were responsible the following generations are acknowledging what their parents and grandparents did but this hasn’t happened with the Japanese with what they did to millions of Chinese,Koreans Filipinos and POWs. Also the Turks haven’t acknowledged the massacre of 1.5 million innocent Christian Armenians in 1915.

🤔 the „most recent“ ? It’s the genocide in Westasia happening right now before our very eyes and the whole world is watching not doing anything besides the Huthies 🙄 Zionists looking for „Lebensraum“

I have visited Germany several times, I have a few friends in Germany. I love Germany and its people. Such a beautiful place and kind people. That war was over with a long time ago, today’s German people have nothing to feel guilty for because they had nothing to do with that war. All countries including we Americans have done bad things in the past, we must learn from our mistakes and past and learn from the past.

I’m from the uk. I love Germany and visit regularly. Repentance no. Understanding and documenting lived stories yes - that’s the value here.

Typical USA citizen. You haven't got A CLUE what you are talking about. Trump has shown in his first time as president that he has no intention of moving the country towards a fascist regime. AT ALL

I bet Eichmann felt like a little mite about to get squished! He would have never in a million years believed that one of his own victims would ever come back to haunt him. I love what the Jewish men told Eichmann I bet he fainted.

It is not the childs fault for what their mother or father has done. The child has no control on the occupation that their parents choose.

It takes alot of money and organizing to promote an ideology and enable a political system to develop. Without the participation of certain elites , religious,political and commercial , not to mention the influence of vain philosophies and pseudo science, the Nazis and their cronies would not have progressed beyond a beer hall.

German - Swiss American here! My Great-Uncle died on a beach in Anzio, Italy February 19,1944. He was a STAFF SGT in the US Army! He was definitely NOT A LOSER! 🇩🇪 🇨🇭 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🪖🫡🫡🫡Needless to say,I was very upset about the recent 2024 US Election! I have ZERO desire to live under a DICTATOR for obvious reasons. I tecommend that people read the book Learning from the Germans: Racism and the Memory of EVIL by Susan Neiman. Susan is a Jewish woman raised in the segregated South in the 1960s. She is the Director of the Einstein Institute in Berlin Germany. She raised her 3 children in Berlin and still lives there. She makes the interesting point that after WWII Germany had to accept their defeat. They did that and moved on . They EVOLVED. Unlike the South/ April 9,1865 and 45 / November 2020 who refused to accept their defeats . They REGRESSED and DEVOLVED!
