Tell me that none of you can think that Hitler was a positive influence?
Accually we have multiple facists/nazi's on this board.
Anyhow, the allies did do sme bad things, the Americans putting all Japanese in concentration camps for instance, but comparing them to the atrocities that the Japanese and Nazi's commited is insanity pure and simple.
If you want to see atrocities look up:
Waffen SS
Totenkopf
Unit 731
The final Solution
The Rape of Nanking
The Burma Railway
that is just the tip of the ice burg as they say........
People b*tch about what the Red Army did to Germany on their march to Berlin. That was nothing more that pay back, I can't remember who said it but I remember a Red Army officer grabbed a Nazi officer by the scruff of the neck soon after teh surrender at Stalingrad. He pointed and said "look, look, this is what Berlin will look like".
The Red army did some terrible things, but the Nazi's did all that and worse tro teh Soviets. Rape was nothing to do with sex most of the time; it had to to with the fact that teh Germans considered them sub-human, and being raped by a subhuman is the highest form of humiliation to a nazi; that's why it was illegal to do so in Nazi Germany.
Anyhow, as for movies, there are no good WWII movies. I have a great idea for a 4 part epic from the point of view of teh Germans; but it would cost about 1 billion US to make (roughly) and it would get slammed by the critics who wouldn't be able to see that it was a accurate representation of what happened; not a pro-nazi movie.
