I'm certainly no expert, just one of many military history buffs who enjoy this forum, but...If I'm not mistaken, many soldiers--and officers, in the Wehrmacht were not members of the National Socialists Party. Unfortunately, it would be an understatement to say that the Wehrmacht cooperated with the SS in its murder of Jews, Poles, and millions of others.

ALL members of the Waffen SS were Nazis

What most people today fail to realize is they themselves, just like their ancestors, were in general men and women of their times.

That is the lesson of History so many have missed.

It is a fool's errand to judge people of the past by today's morality.
Doing such doesn't compute.

People of the past were men and women of their times.
Apparently this is rocket surgery to some.

Imagine in 200 years...
people will be calling those who live today "backwards and primitive".
It's true, it will happen.

Some people already call me "backwards and primitive". And that's when they are being polite.

"The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them. At Rotterdam, London, Warsaw and half a hundred other places, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind."

That episode is 4 years old, so she knew her family history long before attacking President Trump. The article makes it seem like she just found out. Anyway, I could care less about her but if she was somehow devastated about the news back in 2013 when she found out, then it's pretty funny. I think she probably had some idea already. I mean, it really wasn't that far back in her family's history. It's her grandfather. Knowing he was from Germany and was of fighting age, she'd have to suspect that there was a good chance he served in the German military or served the German government in some way during those times.

Correct.

Not correct. It would be accurate to say that all official members of the SS were Nazis. But not all soldiers fighting in Waffen-SS units were SS members or Nazis. Many weren't even German.

In the early stages of the war, the Waffen-SS units were made up exclusively of racially-acceptable, die-hard SS members from Germany. But as the war progressed, Waffen-SS units were supplemented with other men, including non-SS soldiers and non-Aryan/Germanic soldiers who were not even eligible for SS membership or Nazi Party membership. The Waffen-SS's focus switched to "a multinational crusade against the Bolshevik/Communist hordes", which attracted a number of non-Nazi/non-Germanic volunteers. In addition, some men were conscripted directly into Waffen-SS units towards the end of the war, especially in occupied areas.

The Waffen-SS started out by widening their net in 1940 to accept ethnic Germans ("Volksdeutsche") from nearby countries, as well as certain other "acceptably Germanic" volunteers like Finns, Danes, Norwegians, Dutch, and Swedes. But as the war progressed, the Waffen-SS eventually disregarded ethnic considerations altogether, and by the end of the war had formed fighting units that included Bosnians, Albanians, Croatians, Russians, Ukrainians, Cossacks, Latvians, Estonians, Bulgarians, Hungarians, Italians, Belgians, French, Turks, Indians, Romanians, Spaniards, and a whole host of other non-Germanic nationalities and ethnic groups.

There were eventually a total of around half a million non-Germans fighting in the Waffen-SS. Not all of these foreign Waffen-SS soldiers agreed with the Nazis. Many of these were simply anti-Communists who saw the Germans as a slightly better alternative than the Soviets (especially those minorities that had suffered under the Bolsheviks in the Soviet Union and who viewed the Germans as their liberators). Some joined up just to have a job, a bed, and a full belly. Others were conscripts, with little choice.

Why? His antics and behaviors have nothing to do with her, not in any causitive way.

I have no idea what that has to do with anything.

JALLEN - Let me try. It doesn't matter what you think about whether children are responsible for the sins of the father. What matters or what makes this ironic is that Handler and the Left hold all whites, and especially southern whites, responsible for slavery or anything bad that our ancestors did. Look around - it's literally everywhere in leftist ideology - we are all (except for elitist liberal whites) responsible for every atrocity that occurred in the past.

It's rather ironic that someone who believes this to find out that they come from an actual Nazi family.

OK, it's ironic. That's a procedural issue, but has nothing to do with the substance of whatever they are spewing. If their substance is "right" it is silly; if it is wrong, it is superfluous.
