I have spent the last two weeks of Sarge's recovery caring for him and watching documentaries about the Nazis in Germany from the 1930s and 1940s. I am by no means saying what they became wasn't evil. Never! In this video, I want to question who was truly evil. Who took it to another level no one ever thought possible? Spoiler alert: it wasn't just the top-ranking nazis.
So who was the most genuinely evil? Those who stood by and enabled them. Not just the German citizens who had to know something was genuinely horrible. You know those who lived near the camps and saw the waves of smoke coming out of the chimneys. They smelled the smoke and the awful smell of burning bodies. Said nothing. No one ever said no. No one said this is wrong. Governments across Europe had to know something awful was happening in Germany. It wasn't until they could no longer hide what was happening did they say a word when it was convenient for them to manipulate the masses into going to war against Hitler.
Oh yeah! Every government head at the time knew what was going on. Yet they turned a blind eye. They didn't want another war in Europe. I get it. They were just recovering from the First World War. By the time Hitler's brutality became clear and there could be no more peace treaties signed, no more compromises could be made, then citizens were told about the camps and other horrors going on in Germany. The truth of the matter is this, Governments knew about these things during the Olympics in Berlin which Hitler attended.
You don't have citizens go missing without neighbors noticing. Even they were silent. After all, the missing were Jews. It was easy to overlook until others like the handicapped were sent to learn how to 'live' on their own. This was a one-way trip. Dissidents who disagreed with the nazi lunatics went missing. Gypsies and others deemed undesirable also went missing. With this how citizens could ignore what was happening is beyond me. More importantly, the League of Nations (UN) which was supposed to keep peace also ignored what was going on in Germany. Swiss bankers in Switzerland not only ignored what was happening, but they funded it. Talk about evil. It stopped there, right?
NO! There were companies like IBM and Coke A Cola who benefited from the nazis. Fanta Orange was a favorite drink of Germans. Standard Oil owned by the Rockefeller family benefited as well. Let's not forget Rothschild's banking system who funded the whole affair. It's hard to really point at who was the evilest, but the blame for what happened is plentiful. Why is this important? Because we are witnessing this happening again. This time it's been in Ukraine. The Ukrainian government has been repeating this process against Ukrainian citizens who are Ethnic Russians. Now the government under Zelensky is going after the Orthodox Church in Ukraine.
Here's my question to you, are you willing to be silent? Or will you be silent til they come after you and there's no one left to speak out?
