Thomas_MoreParticipant
I should think TS is one of those who rolls about in the street brawling with members of the EDL or BNP.
Not exactly rational behaviour.Thomas_MoreParticipantI’m not interested in justifying violence, regardless of who is doing the firing.

“Liberation.”

“This is liberation, not a war!”
Thomas_MoreParticipantBijou, TrollScotsman is stalling you. It is well known that Putin persecutes homosexuality.
Thomas_MoreParticipantStalin also persecuted sexual minorities, and outlawed Freudian and Reichian psychotherapy, as did the Nazis.
Thomas_MoreParticipantAuschwitz couldn’t be missed. It was the size of a city. The prisoners were imploring Allied planes to bomb, but they never did. Escapees had informed the Allies, as had Kurt Gerstein, but they were ignored. They were also ignored by Pius XII.
Local Poles knew of the exterminations and taunted prisoners on the way by making throat-cutting gestures by the side of the railway tracks. Polish guerrillas killed escaped Jews as well as German soldiers.
German and other West European workers did not know. Nor did prisoners on their way, for the most part. Jews returning home after the war’s end in Poland were lynched, including the organiser of the Sobibor uprising.
German workers had brought a halt to the killing of the disabled in the 1930s by blocking Hitler’s train and demanding the end of the policy once they had discovered it. Killings continued outside Germany of course.
In Denmark workers made the seizure of Jews virtually impossible (see Hannah Arendt) by going on a general strike. The Wehrmacht in Denmark couldn’t cope, and went on strike itself. Himmler sent in the SS, but they couldn’t function. The King appeared wearing a Jewish star. Similar action occurred in Bulgaria. The Nazis could deal with violence but not with mass strike action. Contrarily, armed resistance in France and elsewhere achieved little or nothing in saving Jews.
Thomas_MoreParticipantAnd I well remember the “communist” Chinese PLA’s brief incursion into Vietnam, singing as they set fire to peasants’ homes, “We are the people’s army!”
Not to mention their support for Pol Pot.
Thomas_MoreParticipantThomas_MoreParticipantDidn’t the CPGB tell people we were Nazis, and break up our meetings?
Thomas_MoreParticipantBut after the war German chemical and steel magnates with blood on their hands were bailed out with bonuses, I believe?
Thomas_MoreParticipantHow pitiable it is to hear reports such as that of an old lady trying to buy groceries on one side of the border hearing shouts of “Nazi!” and “Enemy!” coming from another old lady on the other side.
Thomas_MoreParticipantStalin labelled Trotsky a Nazi too. It’s the favoured Russian epithet, much like “paedo” is in the UK.
Thomas_MoreParticipantIn 1945 Japan was desperate to surrender but was blocked by the USA, which was determined to try its new weapon.
Tokyo pleaded with Stalin to get a surrender through to the US. Instead, he declared war and condemned the Japanese workers of Hiroshima and Nagasaki to their fate.
The A bomb explosions were an experiment both Truman and Stalin wanted to see on a live population, as the Cold War was already on the cards.Thomas_MoreParticipantStalin also had no confidence in Mao. He supported Chiang right up to 1949. Indeed, Chiang had studied in the Soviet Union and had Soviet advisers before switching to German ones.
Mao, and later Ho Chi Minh too, hoped for American support.
