He murdered my great grandmother Riga, 1941

[@MaryTheresa-d6d]

Sadistic soldiers and people tramped all over innocent victims. Most chilling l find is photos of little children with yellow stars sewing on their clothes. Hitler and company were sent as a scourge upon the earth. They come in darkness and leave in the depths of hell. Lord have mercy on all the victims..

[@semsemeini7905]

Many Jews from Vienna and German cities were deported to Riga. On arrival the older people were taken on busses and shot. My mother had a friend who was deported to Riga with his mother from Vienna. He survived but not his mother. There was an excellent documentary on KZbin how he was caught by the Mossad.

[@SenileTrumpOLE]

True , my neihbor Henry Rusheen was a Berliner. sent to Riga. worked on Ford gas wagons as a mechanic. survived two years under the trucks. loaded and unloaded bodies. He saw children being shot. showed me his yellow star,

[@azthundercloud]

My mother in law was from riga. She took the last train out to freedom. She came from a wealthy family and left dirt poor.

You go from being awarded the Harmon trophy for your achievements in aviation, to years later harming the people who praised you as a national hero of Latvia. I was eagerly waiting for you to cover Hubert Cukurs soon World History team, and once again you did exceptionally well.

[@MrJackal43]

Just like American democrats!

His family is still suffering for his sins today

[@sharonlain5830]

What happened to them ?

[@Percept2024]

How are they "suffering" ??!

[@firebyrd437]

Then they shouldn't. They are not responsible for his actions

"The appeasement and giving away of a great part of Czechoslovakia was kind, loving and nurturing. It was not brutal" KZbin💩 previously blocked this comment, wonder why?

[@Brumasterj]

Sad thing is many people believe this never happened! Dont kid yiurself if you dont think its still happening across the world!

[@dennisyoung7363]

Many people also claim that the murder of 20 million Russians, by jews in the gulags, didn't happen.

[@randalhampton2966]

And in the end they always plead for their lives...that's funny...

I don't know who that is but I think possibly Ghandi said it first? Could be wrong of course.

[@MaryTheresa-d6d]

It was the Fiddler on the Roof. It was the father who said that, when they were being put out of their homes..

That photo of Mia Epstein...I've seen it probably 500 or 600 times...I never knew the name. I looked it up though and it said she was 18, not 30.

[@karlabritfeld7104]

Why weren't these pictures broadcast around the world while these atrocities were going on? Who we're the photographers who snapped photos and did nothing?!

[@josephportnojgaj7096]

nazis took the pictures and made the films

[@nigeleast-jg7yv]

Coz there was no TV or CNN those days

[@BlasphemousBill2023]

Time to pick up a history book.

[@LeoBov1]

Because there was no media globalization and easy access to info like we have now.. The people taking photos and pics were closely monitered, it was a risk even doing it... Just like North Korea we still get leaked videos and all today but its still possible to keep the world in the dark by a ruthless regime.. Clearly evident by N. Korea

[@bobjames6622]

Wow! You're REALLY not very bright, are you. BTW, that's a statement, not a question.

[@josiel152]

these photos of the poor woman our disturbing to say the least. As you say most of the monsters lived out there lives without paying any price for what they did, too bad any of them were allowed to live.

[@vladislavovich100]

Latvia was not liberated by Soviet army, occupied. Better to know such details about that war.

[@richardkeilig4062]

Soviets rounded up Latvians for a trip to Siberia, where they were murdered. The Germans were just as bad. If they had been true liberators and not murder jews and others history may have been different.

[@JG-tt4sz]

How many Latvians were liquidated or gulag'd by the soviets? Slanted video.

[@Percept2024]

Poetic Justice because MANY Latvians , Poles , and other Slavs were sneaky Nazi collaboraters !!
