I was responding to DLT who equated Nazis to Germans. Thanks to your stats, I can quote that 63.2% of German voters did not vote for Hitler. Let's not tar all by the actions of a minority.
fact remains..this is the most documented, systematic, industrial slaughter of human beings in all of recorded civilised history and it was carried out by the German nation..
not just Germans, there were French collaborators who actively helped root out and send Jews to death camps .. it could not have been done without the help and co operation of millions of ordinary people.
By 1944 the war was in its death throes for the Germans, but the extermination process was at its zenith, what does that tell you? Well, it tells you a lot.
How can a country on total war footing continue to move, house, manage and exterminate millions of people while at the same time, use those sparing resources on war production? They can't, not without a lot of help. Where was this help?.. The German nation of course.
But blaming or in your words 'tarring' doesn't bring back the dead.. did we learn ? could it happen again.. ?
I say no, we didn't learn.. and yes it could
Man's inhumanity to man knows no bounds.. it is still happening today.. in Aleppo .. bombing, gassing and killing of innocent children.. and we do nothing .. just as millions of Germans did nothing to stop the transportation and murder of millions of Jews.. doing nothing is guilty by association .. guilty by doing nothing
