So, it seems this forum is filled with Nazi sympathizers.
Why am I not surprised?
We are highly intellectual people , we rather debate the validity and logic of previous wars , if we accepted a distorted view , then whats the point of having an intellect. The whole idea of having a brain is to analyse past wars and conflicts and avoid it in future. Its just called discussing and debate
If we don't debate then there is no differece between Taliaban who say its against their law to discuss "Laws" they approved -
Its beneficial to learn from previous wars and what kind of behavioral actions taken by society as a whole to validate war.
If you feel that its ok , to drop bombs on civilians , and justify it with some notion that its a rightous war and for good of greater mankind welll guess what that same old excuse is used by Al Qaida , but I am talking about Allied froces bombing and then apologizing for human loss. Disrespecting civilian structure and plain old bombardment
So when our own character is blemished with blood stains who are we to judge the past history and call Hitler a Evil person? Did he not do the exact same thing ?
But if some one is forced to accept - what ever 1 sided history is recorded in record books then so be it ... there is no vocal support for the other side ( if you ban other side from debate) how can you really call the stroy reflective of a true picture of that time.
Studying ww2 is also a subject in most universities, but one has to have a brain and reason in order to really uncover the atrocities of past conflict so future conflicts can be avoided.
Here is a passage which shows Ghandhi's view on WW2
"Gandhi was criticized by some Congress party members and other Indian political groups, both pro-British and anti-British. Some felt that not supporting Britain more in its life or death struggle against the evil of Nazism was unethical. Others felt that Gandhi's refusal for India to participate in the war was insufficient and more direct opposition should be taken,
while Britain fought against Nazism yet continued to contradict itself by refusing to grant India Independence. Quit India became the most forceful movement in the history of the struggle, with mass arrests and violence on an unprecedented scale. Thousands of freedom fighters were killed or injured by police gunfire, and hundreds of thousands were arrested. Gandhi and his supporters made it clear they would not support the war effort unless India were granted immediate independence. He even clarified that this time the movement would not be stopped if individual acts of violence were committed, saying that the "ordered anarchy" around him was "worse than real anarchy." He called on all Congressmen and Indians to maintain discipline via ahimsa, and Karo Ya Maro ("Do or Die") in the cause of ultimate freedom."
Again if you view the history thru eyes of our leaders from that past we can see -
THEY SAW... what was going on , yet they did not blindly supported the view point that person xyx is evil - etc .... the information they had was less polluted the when we have now , now we have hollywood movies, writers and authors , writing fictions and also adding in flare , love stories and this and that - it has become an art to criticize Hitler Think about it if he was such a devil - why did india's most prominet leader say NO ... to helping british Raj?? Does that means the stories we hear now are a bit more ... "MADE UP" or spiced up.... why did people back they from India (Paksitan/India/Bangladesh/Afghanistan) did not rejected Britain?
QUICK FACTS:
->BRITAIN WAS FIRST COUNTRY TO USE POISON GAS
->BRITAIN WAS ALSO ONE OF FIRST COUNTRIES TO USE CHLORINE GAS
->US used WMD on Japan (when war was practically over)
->US used WMD on Japan again (when war was practically over)
And who controled the world with cannons from 1800 on ward and enslave nations it was surely not the Germans -
Don't believe what you see , you need to debate and analyse data coming thru from all angles to create a view point
Does it not amazes you
that great leaders from that time - SAW THE WORLD DIFFERENTLY then what we see - the differece is we get our knowledge now thur books written by biased historians who tell the story from 1 view point only - but our old leaders who got us freedom they looked beyond that they saw and heard stories
and they worked hard to get our freedom back....
they did not bought the stories Now we on other hand we get our knowledge thru the media ad the media shapes our views and understading... but I find it facinating if Hitler was such a bad person why did our own leaders Ghandi (Indian congress party ) and pretty much did not bother to fight him ???
You should think about it sometime
The most recent example is how Saddam was created into this "Monster" yet 6-10 years ago the same guy was eating stake dinner with Rumsfield , and drinking tea in a tent.. etc so if media/writers ca demonize Saddam before our eyes of course they will make up stories to also demonize Hitler , otherwise how can all the allied forces killings can be justified?
Now we read the VIEW how evil such and such , but wait a second our own leaders did not care back then??Why becasue they were smart to see the big picture ...NOW of course history is polluted with stories from just 1 view point but if one analyses actions of leaders in past you can see what was going on
