The Brutal Fate of Nazi Leaders Captured after WW2

- As the ashes of World War II settled, casting long shadows over a world weary from years of conflict, a sinister undercurrent began to surface. The year is 1945, and the fall of the Third Reich has left in its wake a trail of notorious war criminals, scrambling like rats fleeing a sinking ship. Among these are names etched in infamy: Adolf Eichmann, Josef Mengele, Klaus Barbie. Men responsible for unspeakable atrocities, now desperate to evade the justice that beckons them.
This is the era of the Ratlines, clandestine escape routes weaving through Europe to far-flung destinations like Argentina, Syria, and Egypt. Orchestrated by networks of sympathizers and facilitated by organizations like the Vatican and the Red Cross, these routes served as a lifeline for those fleeing the noose of retribution. How did these notorious figures slip through the fingers of justice, and who were the shadowy figures aiding their flight?
Amidst this murky backdrop emerges a relentless hunter, a beacon of justice in a world grappling with the horrors of the Holocaust. Simon Wiesenthal, himself a survivor of Nazi concentration camps, dedicates his life to tracking down those who orchestrated the genocide. His mission is not just one of retribution, but a crusade to ensure the world never forgets the atrocities committed.
Wiesenthal's pursuit of justice sees the capture of key figures like Eichmann, the so-called 'Architect of the Holocaust', snatched from his Argentinian hideout in 1960 and brought to trial. But the question lingers in the air like a persistent fog: how many more evaded capture, their crimes fading into the annals of history?
As Anne Frank poignantly remarked, "What is done cannot be undone, but one can prevent it happening again." Are we ready to confront the uncomfortable truths of the post-war years? To explore the dark corridors of escape and evasion that allowed some of history's most heinous criminals to vanish into the night?
Join us as we unravel the tangled web of the Ratlines, the tireless efforts of Simon Wiesenthal, and the haunting legacy of the Nazis who escaped justice. Welcome to the diary of Julius Caesar.
Echoes of Justice. The Nuremberg Trials and the Reckoning of Nazi Atrocities.
In the wake of the devastating Second World War, a historic judicial event unfolded in the city of Nuremberg, Germany. The Nuremberg Trials, held from November 20, 1945, to October 1, 1946, were a series of military tribunals that marked a pivotal moment in international law. This unprecedented series of trials prosecuted prominent leaders of Nazi Germany for heinous crimes that had shaken the conscience of humanity. The trials took place in the Palace of Justice, a location chosen for its symbolic significance and logistical suitability, despite being partially damaged during the war.
The trials were conducted in four major categories: Crimes Against Peace, War Crimes, Crimes Against Humanity, and a novel legal concept, the Conspiracy to Commit the aforementioned crimes. The defendants included high-ranking military officials, politicians, industrialists, and physicians, each accused of participating in the systematic murder of millions during the Holocaust and other war crimes. Among the accused were figures like Wilhelm Keitel, Alfred Jodl, and Ernst Kaltenbrunner.

Great content.... new subscriber. That Juan Peron sure had a winning smile, don't think I've ever seen a photo of him where he wasn't using it.
One request/suggestion.... minimize or eliminate the slide projector sound effect between images. The images by the way, are of excellent quality... not the typical grainy and poor quality often seen on other channels.
Another Gem💎 Of A Video! Keep up the excellent work, my good sir👍
No, you go
It’s amazing that the world allowed these monsters to escape justice. Only a handful were ever put on trial.
The allies did a few atrocities of their own. It's all moot know as we live in an increasingly less free world.
Fun facts 😅😅😅 Vatican & Red cross facilitate them to escape.

Red Cross: What is your blood type?
Nazi: "A" for Aryan!!
Red Cross: Sounds legit....
My guess it was more about what they could gain whilst pretending to take the moral high ground. Didn't the Americans have people segregated until the 60's or something?
@@djkurtstudio From what I see on Twitter of mobs attacking single white girls, segregation is starting to look GOOD.
Great channel. Only came across it few days ago, and I'm hooked.
If you are useful to the winners you aren't a war criminal, you're a captured asset. Remember history is written by the victors.
You are right what you said
Then they wonder why I won’t donate to the Red Cross.
ditto...
Really? That’s the reason in the present day?
That was an incredible video! First time watching and I'm already hooked :)
....he has a film on Gaza atrocities as well...watch that one too...
How is it that the Catholic Church hasn't been held accountable for their part in what happened. They have been prosecuted for some pedophilia crimes and yet, not these
same as why america, russia or literaly EVERYONE wasnt held accountable for same or very similar things
People protect the church for religious reasons, no matter how evil the crime
@@igorsvacic217The United States of America???
@@stephengorin2685 yes
The Catholic church has over 1 billion Catholics. How exactly do you hold a church "accountable" for the actions of a few leaders many generations ago? What does that look like? Don't worry, I'm pretty sure God has held them accountable.
Your narration and editing skills are TOTAL FIRE!
I concur. I was amazed that the Romany were named correctly instead of Gypsy, which is what they are usually referred to as.
People appreciate being called by name, or origin. Great work!
IT'S ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Notwithstanding the Red Cross pics dating from WWI
I remember visiting the venerable Simon Wiesenthal Museum in Los Angeles in the 1990s. About twenty people at a time were let into the lobby. We were waiting there for a few minutes, for two doors doors to open. I cant remember what the exact words were on top of each door but I think one door said ''Tolerant'' and the other door said ''Intolerant''. When the time came to go into the exhibits, the people waiting at the Tolerant Door realized that door didnt open, and everyone had to use the INTOLERANT door.
Brilliant.
Eternal Gratitude to Simon Wiesenthal!! ❤
that sent chills up my backbone...
The Nazi movement originated in 1915 during WW1. By 1919, the movement was already recruiting a disillusioned and starving Germany facing an unreasonable Paris peace reparation treaty. The German nation felt like the pariah of the modern world which opened wide doors for a nationalist party promising status restoration. The full scale of the Nazi's agenda was not openly made known to the public, put aside the Jew blaming/cleansing propaganda which was one of their main goal. All the ingredients were assembled for this unspeakable tragedy to take place 20 years later. If there is one thing we should all remember is that none of us are immune to falling for hatred.
Don't these crimes against humanity go back tens of thousands of years?
ALAS; However-much, HISTORY.😢❤
You forget to state the reason that the German people were starving before WW2. This was because their economy had collapsed after they lost the First World War to the allies that they, themselves, forced on Europe for no other reason that their desire to force Europe under their leadership and dominance.
Irish, raised American, had to be careful on international business. The still hate of Irish in Northern Ireland
Just thought, how many of me in multiple cultures?
I just stumbled on this Chanel and I have to say is by far the best I ever seen , am polish man and I love ❤️ the 2and war stories and I thought I new a lot not intel I see this , thank u very much for ur resuch and hard work sir
There attitude hasn't changed, they still think they are better than us. United States 🇺🇸 and Poland 🇵🇱 will always be our brothers!
Adolph Eichmann was not the architect of the Holocaust. He however was the main Bureaucrat of the Holocaust. This still was inexcusable as he organized the railroad lines to the extermination camps with no compassion.
The importance of justice over vengeance...
Lil d JT is all about vengeance
NEVER FORGET. NEVER AGAIN.
And yet these criminals who seemingly stood by their convictions had already made for their own escape routes like a coward that they truly were, such as the plate and the pathos of those who will rule the world
Alois Brunner who worked with Eichmann evaded capture and eventually settled in Syria where he survived two Mossad attempts on his life.
Great vidéo thank you ! I suscribe at your channel ..
This is a remarkable documentary, thank you.
When I was a kid growing up in the 1960s and 70s, I had a friend whose father was in the Wehrmacht as a teenage conscript during WW2. Although he was only an 18 year old Private when the Nazis surrendered, he told us about the detailed interview process he went through during the months afterwards. It seems the Allies were doing their best to leave no stone unturned, with the resources they had. The sheer volume of POWs made it rather challenging to identify war criminals certainly, so it is understandable that many escaped justice via the Odessa network.
when i was a kid in the 80's my friends dad was "Argentinian" but when he was i the hospital he confessed he was a pilot Luftwaffe he shot down 19 B-17's in his 4 (1941-1945) year service he survived and was tried in 1992 for being a Nazi (Edit) he died 17 years ago
his name was Henry Adelaide
@@Enclave_Enjoyer2287no body was tried for being a Nazi. They got tried for committing crimes. Being a pilot in the luftwaffe wasn't a crime.
I grew up in the 60s & 70s. I would watch "The World at War" with my Parents & Brothers. As young as I was, I remember being quite horrified at what I was learning! I was raised by.Anglican Parents who taught me to love and respect the Jewish People!
They left quiet a few stones unturned. Hypocrisy in action. Operation Paper Clip.
Absolutely love your channel 💖🍿 These things should never be forgotten
Von Braun's presence in NASA was just a reflection of the moral character of all politicians.
Not really. The USSR was wickedly expansionist in a highly undemocratic manner. The race for more effective weapons had to be won against the russians, just as it had been necessary to win that war against the germans. Tyranny was the threat in both cases. At the same time, we know that more people died as slave laborers building Von Braun's rockets, than were killed by their deployment. The disgusting presence of Von Braun was repellent, but also a practical necessity.
werner von braun the inventor of the bombs V1 y V2, recibido en estados unidos como un heroe , igual los medicos nazis o los medicos japoneses que torturaron civiles , de la misma manera ahora los grandes dueños de empresas farmacueticas , tu puedes matar no pasa nada con tal que nos traes dinero
And fear in human beings that somebody, particularly enemies, will get a leg up. This was the Cold War threat. Desperate people do desperate things.
Excellent documentary 💪
The title of this video has very little to do with its content.
Hardly any brutal fate of Nazi leaders is discussed in it.
thx Ill skip it
Most Nazi leaders lived a fruitful life in the americas and Switzerland. They lived up through their 90s and looked very active and lively for 90 year olds (other documentaries on TH-cam)
I'm 3 minutes in. Thanks for saving my time!
The amount of time that had to go into making this video is probably insane. The production quality and animation is so good
Absolutely excellent analysis! My compliments.
Great Video!!!
Powerful documentary
Definitely no brutal information though
It wasn’t just Nazis who were given immunity from War Crimes if they worked for the American Government, senior doctors from Unit 731 were also recruited to work on Biological Weapons
Right, they came to America and worked .
Worked for the Americans because of their knowledge of the Russians during the postwar years. Barbie worked for the Americans way into the 1950s but because of his high profile as the butcher of Lyon he fled to south America losing his immunity.
As time passes more classified info comes out.
Horrifying.
Imperial Japan was just as Sadistic and Evil as Nazi Germany!
On December 17, 1944, elements of the 1st SS Panzer Regiment commanded by Joachim Peiper, captured 113 American soldiers, assembled them in a field and machine-gunned them. It became known as the Malmedy Massacre. This was during the Battle of the Bulge. Peiper was sentenced to death but after a series of circumstances he was freed after a few years in 1956. He settled down outside a small town in SE France. Much later it was discovered who he really was. From Wiki: 'On Bastille Day, 14 July 1976, French anti-Nazis attacked and torched Peiper's house in Traves. When the fire was extinguished, firefighters found the charred remains of a man holding a pistol and a .22 calibre rifle, as if defending himself. The arson investigators determined that person had died from smoke inhalation.[136] The anti-Nazi political group The Avengers claimed responsibility for the arson that killed Peiper; nonetheless, because of the destruction caused by the arson some French police authorities remained unconvinced that Joachim Peiper was the person found.' His killers were never found.
WOW THAT'S awesome!

Thanks for sharing
The script and narration of your documentaries are among the best I've seen so far (and not just on TH-cam, but anywhere)
hes a bit too liberal for me, but good work.
What an excellent summary! Have been wading thru Jew Süss, and a couple of documentaries to get a handle on Nazi rise and rule and this is a great pulling together.
Keep up the great work 👍
You know how I can tell if something is well-written? Use auto-translate! And this documentary, aside from the slightly too-loud paper-shuffle sound, was one of the best comprehensive documentaries on de-nazification. The German auto-translate is stellar.
This is all so accurate and frightening. Excellent production. What lies ahead for us all ??????
Great documentary
Excellent documentary.
Superbmdocumentary superbly narrated. I subscribed to the channel and hope to see more of this.
Well done but the world has not learned from the lessons of the Nazis war crimes sadly ………something is not right and humanity is underseige
And also the pope in Italy help a lot of the escape Germany In 1945
I saw a documentary that showed that the Pope was well aware of a assassination plot of Hitler.
Thanks for including FEET in your distance. we Americans never really embraced the metric system. And it's much more enjoyable to just be impressed with the ability of someone without having to do extra work. Thanks again. I always enjoy your content.
Just go Google, you are way outnumbered, the rest of the world does not understand your feet, giraffes, whatever you use to measure ....
@@FJSCHEEPERS actually, per Neil Degrasse Tyson. The United States does use the metric system in a mix with the “Customary System” standard. We buy and sell liters of soda, and everybody uses the liters. The US buys and sells wine and certain types of beer (typically higher alcohol content beer) by the metric system. The United States is definitely using the customary system in construction. United States measures the wear on tires using the metric system. The United States uses the metric system in measuring ammunition, like 9 mm, which is a popular round for the Glocks bought in the United States. The United States varies between metric and customary for ammunition, but everybody who is involved with firearms pretty much knows the equivalents. Such as 7.62 versus 308, or 223 versus 5.56, which is a round typically of the AR 15. The United States uses the customary system for measuring distance on earth, but in physics, they use the metric system and in chemistry. The United States also uses the metric system for the measurements in prescriptions. All a while, the monetary system of the world is in US Dollars. And prior to US dollars it was the British pound until the 1950s. And the British use a mix of the customary system, and the metric system even then.
So you see the United States isn’t all customary measuring system, nor is it all metric. And United States students, the young ones, are actually pretty adept at converting between the two. Which in a funny way is not what the rest of the world does. The parts of the world that’s on the metric system typically shuns or is ignorant of the conversions between the metric and customary system.
Tom Lehrer was a professor of mathematics turned 1960's political musical satirist and he did the most righteous satirical song 'praising' Von Braun! It's on his album "That Was The Year That Was " and is worth a listen; for that matter the whole album is!😊
Thanks for that, I like Tom Lehrers songs, going to google that one now.
Yes, indeed. "And now he's learning Chinese."
Incredible how the Einsatzgruppen commanders were captured tried. Got short prison sentences. One SOB died in a German rest home 2009. Then again none of Stalin's criminals from the Great Terror, Stalinist famine of the Ukraine, Gulag Archipelago ever payed for their horror. Who remembers the extermination of the Armenians today by the Ottoman Turks during the great war? Adolf Hitler to his inner circle Aug-1939.
A extremely interesting film. Very well done….I learned a lot. Never Again!!
Wir wollen wieder.
Please for the love of God don't ever use the gd paper moving sound again!!
I’m a VO artist.
This is excellent narration.
Video shows picture of Lech Walesa @19:52. Totally out of context like many of these WW2 videos. They figure you'll never notice.
The ones with special knowledge in engineering or results from extremely unethical research on humans often went scott free. Both the Allies and Russia had people on their payrolls - that lived a comfortable life after the war and even being protected to hinder the justice in the courts. Some finding new employers in dictators happy to find people with little to no conscience or morals. The people you would want being an illegite ruler...
As did all the Japanese who did just as evil 'studies' on people.
What unethical research did the allies do? I think you spread lies
V2 used against Allied forces (?) it was used to kill British civilians.
It was used against both troops and civilians in Britain/Netherlands.
As the ashes of WWII settled, casting long shadows ... : the master of mixed metaphors.
My great grandfather was a nazi officer- he came to the US and had my grandma. My dad didn’t know him, and I know that my family is very much critical of nazis and we will never become one.
That's a pity. You should reconsider.
OP this is a remarkably informative and poignant documentary and easily just as good if not better, than anything shown on History channel and the like, love it, love it!
As for Weisenthal "Never forget", well he succeeded admirably. The, holocaust gets mentioned every 5 minutes. Since 1945. But
I am going to say things now that a lot of people may not like, but that need to be said anyway. Because the tragic thing is, there are equal tragedies from the 20th century that are already forgotten: In the nation of Cambodia (now Kampuchea), Pol Pot's massacre of 2 million Cambodians 1975-1980 (of 6 million population) - rarely mentioned. Rwanda; massacre of Hutu tribespeople, by Tutsi tribe ("Hotel Rwanda" is based on real events) that took 1 million lives - the rivers literally ran red - that happened in 1994.. rarely mentioned.
Look at Gaza.
The Turkish Empire almost eliminated the entire Armenian race. Back during the Great War. Only 100 years or more ago. Genocide has been happening since the beginning of time. Sad sad.
lmao its because extorting germany for ww2 "crimes" is a multi billion dollar industry. It counts for a big chunk of israels GDP
"Never forget" --- well just look at Evil Trump and the MAGAs for how much they resemble the Nazis
have you seen europa the last batt le?
both the vatican and the red cross made a fantastic amount of cash for putting aside there morals and dogma to make ready cash.
Actually, that's all either of them care about.
Mengala did not escape justice.
He Did however escape the law !
He died a very poor person living in a bedroom in someone's house. In Sao Paulo Brasil.
He died on a beach while on a vacation.
He had a heart attack while swimming.
He managed to crawl up on the beach,
He struggled in pain tossing and rolling for quite some time
No one came to his rescue.
He died and was buried on that beach.
He did not escape justice. as he went straight to hell !
The Vatican and the red cross. Shameful.
This is an amazingly well produced video. It should be required viewing in college.
But if don't pay my taxes I'm screwed.
very interesting. back ground music/ noise made it impossible to complete
Foolish thoughts still become when history is not totally recalled.
What's interesting to note is the engineers and former scientists who came to America under Operation Paperclip served humanity in many positive ways.
On the contrary, one has to ask if the seeds of modern day antisemitism were scattered and sown in the middle east by the likes of Alois Brunner, Johann von leers, Frans Rademacher, and others who were allowed to cultivate their garden of evil in Egypt and Syria.
There is some good information in this clip, but the title is inconsistent with the content that is presented.
Antisemiti, sm, has increased do to isreals, fascist behavoir toward Gaza.
Saying nothing of the 1200+ Israeli people murdered through so-called Gazans and Hamas murderers. Israel has the right to defend itself.
O is that what your now calling mass murder of the Palastinians?@@segerton65
@@segerton65 Really? Does anyone under International Law, living under an illegal occupation, have the right to fight said occupation? The answer is YES. By ANY means necessary. I suppose you also hate the partisans and civilian groups who fought the Nazi occupation of their lands during WWII. Disgusting.
Civilians didn't exactly get off lightly either.
Great documentary, but the amount of wrongly placed images in time is just amazing - there is even an image of Lech Walesa from the 80s and Red Cross-issued documents referring to the post-war, while the stamps show 1943 - 44
The left picture at 40:19 is not a senior nazi official of any kind.
The man on this image is a STUG-III ace.
On the background you can see his verhicle with the rings on the barrel that represented taken out enemy tanks.
So it's ridicillous to take a random image of a common frontline soldier, and portrait him as an escaped high ranking nazi.
Which he wasn't.
I am far from a Nazi sympathizer, but many bureaucrats joined the party simply because it was required or as a means of getting ahead in their current political society. Those involved in Operation Paperclip were doing a job they were hired to do: build rockets. Russia seized their own Nazi rocket scientists. Both sides would have been decades behind if we didn't capture them and offer them deals to come to the US. If developing weapons is a war crime, the Oppenheimer (a fact he succinctly realized) and all the rest who helped developed the atomic bomb were responsible for war crimes. Where exactly do you draw the line? If we draw it like we did in in WW2, then the US has crossed it so many times we have zero say as to what is a war crime.
You certainly sound like a Nazi sympathizer, Adolph. The Nazi burned human beings in ovens and killed MILLIONS.-that's where you draw the line..The Nazi's were most horrible people in history and The German people went right along.There is no equivalency anywhere in modern history.
People love to blame all their issues on a comically evil bad guy... Keep in mind this IS a simon weisenthal documentary lmao. Probably as biased as you can get

@@mikee4596 You are correct. This clown isn't the only guy posting made-up "history" in the comments, either.
It is disgraceful that lots of these murderous criminals were knowingly helped by the Catholic Church!! Catholocism can never be described as a force for good
I wrote a letter, resigning from the church, and I've been a lifetime member. I used to be a Latin Mass altar boy. But now the church has toxic members like Pelosi, Cuomo, Biden and others. I have asked the church to expel these politicians and they won't do it. Not like I have the power to demand that outcome, but they're asking me to sit next to Na zi's in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament. I won't do it. The church is *wrong* on this matter. I'm ashamed of what the church has become.
Disagree vehemently.
They were helped by Wall Street lawyers like John McCloy (who'd been I.G. Farben's lawyer in the U S. pre-war). Read about Konrad Adenauer and S.S. killer Martin Sandberger (d. 2010).
Just because the narrator is a smooth talking Brut doesn't mean that everything he says is true.
The Catholic Church has done as much as Hitler did and still doing it just move the paedophilia from 1 Church to the next it's time the Vatican was looked into for the cruelty to humanity the sleekit way
GREAT DOCUMENTARY!! however is sad to see all of this soldier sacrifices for nothing.
Prison did Goering one big favour, forcing him to lose enough weight to do his appearance a great deal of good.
Perhaps enabling, rather than forcing: I vaguely remember reading the memoirs of the doctor who supervised his weight loss along with all the health problems of the prisoners.
Yeah never thought of it like that, because for Herman Goering, except for the death sentence at the end part, the war criminal weight loss regimen did him a world of good. And after all he cheated the hang-man by somehow hiding a poison pill in his face cream he was allowed to keep... to this day nobody knows, or can even name the man on the allied side who assisted Goering in concealing the suicide pill.
It gave him a detox from his morphine addiction too.

Proving no matter what you do or have did someone, somewhere will find enough value in you to look the other way...
The irony is, Wiesenthal and those WW2 criminals were paid by the same "contributors". Sensationalism at its best.
Wiesenthal actually didn't really find all that many war criminals. His role has been very exaggerated; also in this video.
that might be true..a valid point..but he did however catch some big ones... stangl and wagner as some of the biggest sharks..and putting the spotlight on what most was already trying to forget and hide
This was an excellent video and I thank you for producing it. It is unfortunate that a similar video has not been produced showing what happened to Japanese war criminals and their asian collaborators after the end of the war as amongst their victims were many jews who had fled to Asia in order to seek santuary or were already living there, especially China, Malaysia, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand and the Phillipines. There were major jewish communities in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Singapore, Manila, Batavia(now called Jakarta) and Hanoi as well as Saigon(now called Ho Chi Minh City). For those who wish to read other books about the Holocausts consult books by Edwin Black, Tom Segev and Mark Felton. There are many books, articles and videos that have recently appeared as the end of the Cold War and publication of personal memoirs have aided investigators. As we Catholics say, "Eternal peace grant unto them O Lord and may perpetual light shine upon them(the victims and the insurers of justice). May they rest in peace. Amen. Be a pursuer of justice and never be silent about injustice!

A crusade should be done so that the world learns and never forgets about the genocide of 20 (twenty) Millions slavic Russian farmers by the Bowl-Che-Veeks (that word had to be split in sound syllabes as it is apparently not allowed here) Fuws (and for that word make that Fu a Je to bypass csorship) in 1917, 1918 whose perpetrators were never tracked but should have been. The world needs to know about a genocide that was 3 times bigger than the one referred about in this video.-
The warcrimes in Gaza should never be forgotten either. Making war on defenceless women and children is expressly forbidden in the Geneva Convention. There needs to be an investigation into this and the perpetrators need to be put on trial. Justice is not a one way street.
of course, if the Arab LOONEY-TOONS succeed in "driving Israel into the sea?", then "NO CRIME", am I hearing you right?
So, the Allies who bombed Germany and Japan into surrender are actually war criminals?
The loss of any life is a tragedy and to be deplored and avoided at all times, as much as is possible.
However, the sad fact is that many civilians, in Germany, Japan, and other nations, are complicit in the actions of their governments and as we all know well, such actions are often not conducive to upholding the morals by which most people live, such as upholding the sanctity of human lives.
Those who cheer the deaths of other people, in other parts of the world, become complicit in, and therefore guilty of, those deaths, so they forfeit their rights to protection from aggression by the victims of their own governments.
If you cheer the deaths of people killed by your government, you cannot morally claim innocence.
That is true for all nations and people.
How come, nobody ever talks about the Japanese, and all the crimes they committed?
are you DEAF??? There's MUCH about them, too!
theres nothing in it for the geus who lied about this too
Well they do, but Japan's involvement was rather limited until PH in December 1941. They did commit horrific atrocities against other pan Asiatic nations, but not until the bombing of Pearl did the aggression spread so virulently to Hong Kong, Guam, Wake Island, followed by the Dutch East Indies, Singapore, Malaysia, Burma, and Thailand. Once they aggressed against the Americans, the US entered the war and IMO, cleaned some clocks. But this discussion is not about Japanese involvement. That would be another presentation, one I hope this channel will soon present. All monsters, all the time during the war.
Its actually kind of interesting... did you know that more Japanese were sentenced to death (and carried out) for war crimes then Germans. True...
They don't look like us.
Sometimes you find yourself in the presence of people of questionable background. This was the case when I was a young cop serving in a small town in South Dakota. Our local Doctor, in fact he was my doctor while I was there was an old German. He drove an old Mercedes, and on the mantle of his fireplace was a photo of him in his SS uniform circa WWII His name Mangulas and according to him he was drafted into the German Army when they took over his native land, I think Lithuania was what he said. He did serve in concentration camps, but said his duties were just to care for the military personnel there at the camps.
Now they just invite them to speak at the Canadian Parliament and give them a standing ovation...
Mr. Schmidt, recently arrived in a small Bavarian village which lies eight miles northwest of Munich... a picturesque, delightful little spot one-time known for its scenery, but more recently related to other events having to do with some of the less positive pursuits of man: human slaughter, torture, misery and anguish.
Mr. Schmidt, as we will soon perceive, has a vested interest in the ruins of a concentration camp - for once, some seventeen years ago, his name was Gunther Lutze.
He held the rank of a captain in the SS.
He was a black-uniformed strutting animal whose function in life was to give pain, and like his colleagues of the time, he shared the one affliction most common amongst that breed known as Nazis... he walked the Earth without a heart.
And now former SS Captain Lutze will revisit his old haunts, satisfied perhaps that all that is awaiting him in the ruins on the hill is an element of nostalgia.
What he does not know, of course, is that a place like Dachau cannot exist only in Bavaria.
By its nature, by its very nature, it must be one of the populated areas... of the Twilight Zone.
Dachau is in Germany visited by many, even his ghost ☠️
"[...]all that is awaiting him in the ruins on the hill is an element of nostalgia."
And you happily revel in his perceived anguish. Do not even pretend that you are not the monster you are trying to reflect. No understanding. Only hatred.
That was a horrific episode to me. I remember it well.
People always talk about holocaust but there is also holodomor. A somewhat milder version the Soviet did.And let's not forget the American version of it called Mcartism. Where Jews were chased and blamed
This all goes back to Nietzsche and Dostoyevsky. There are images of crying Rabis is Poland. They hated Nietzsche for saying god is dead
I understand why he would hate GOD. AFTER all his life was without a conscience.GOD exposed his sin.
@@karifredrikson-lr1mm god = moral law.(that's at least what said in orthodox christianity) I dont know about dogmatic Catholics
whataboutism,. the holodomor needs its own video
What is it with people wanting to compare tragedies? Is it some kind of compulsion you can't control?
Please, what is "Mcartism"?
Why does the title have to connextion to what's happening in the video? No brutal fate just how and where they escaped after ww2.
So did they use that Bazooka on the guy in the picture.
What about the nuclear radiation testing experiments on the people of the Christmas islands done by America
*Christmas* Island? Tell us about it.
All totalitarian ideologies are a mistaken way of thinking that almost always leads to great harm.
Marxism as practiced in Stalin's Russia and Mao's China are but two of many disasters.
is america next? i really want & need to know...or am i imagining things? how worried should i be?
