I fell asleep after the author spit out paragraphs about Germany's "well-deserved guilt". Pretty much voids the article altogether. Guilt of some senile ex-nazi's in a old folks home in Berlin maybe, but not a deserved guilt of the nation as such.
Fantastic article. All points that cried out to be published. A long but worthy read, and should be required reading for every American and European citizen.
Maybe "guilt" was the wrong word: perhaps it's simply a failure to acknowledge guilt and take responsibility for some of the most heinous acts ever performed by alleged human beings.
Altogether too many Germans, if they've had a few beers, and think you're "safe" will venture that the Nazi's "weren't all that bad", and they "had a few good ideas."
If you don't believe me, you haven't spent any time in the bars tourists don't go to in Munich.
