That's Rudolf Hess sitting next to Hermann Goering in the Nuremberg footage. He has the strangest sorry ever. He flew a Bf 110 to Scotland, bailed out, and tried to broker a peace deal on behalf of Germany. He lived his life on something like house arrest, but wasn't executed at Nuremberg.
Well, ya fail at taking over the world ya get the ghetto “sympathy” plan, not much & not worth a damn
This is the most honest and humane thing from a ww2 soldier I’ve seen. As the saying goes the rest of the world fought for their homeland the US fought for souvenirs as they always looted the houses that they stayed at but it was far better than what the Russians did to the Germans post war.
been there….
Nuremburg…… 🤪
Loftwaffel
Herman Gering….. 😱
The Germans started and executed a particularly brutal war killing probably over 20 million civilians. Your takeover was a natural consequence. Stop being bothered
The Nuremberg show trials were a travesty of justice, bypassing nearly all evidentiary standards and due process. Absolutely shameful what was done to Germany.

Most of those people were given compensation, usually a monthly stipend. Was it fair, probably not, but that’s war. It could have been worse for them.
That is what happens when you lose. The people in Eastern Europe of Germany decent were forcibly exiled to Germany.
Very few stood trial ..all for show folks…most escaped to argentina .. so we kicked out the poeple…are we any better
Just like the Nazis
Today we would have liberals refusing and debating putting those men to death
Gee, dont start wars.
Pushing others out probably bothered him because he knew somewhere inside of himself that it is a violation of the 3rd Amendment in the U.S. Constitution.
This is what happens when you first start going into other people's countries
How does it feel to Kill the Leaders of a Nation attempting to defend itself against atrocious terms placed on them after losing WW1!
I bet this Bastards Great Grandson is 300lbs Transgender Weirdo!!!!
What was this sacrifice even for!!!
If Germany would have Won! We wouldn't have had this disgusting crap being placed on our Children!
