Anyone who could prove in any way that they were a Holocaust survivor would receive a lifetime pension, regardless of where they lived in the world, and that pension would be paid by the Federal Republic of Germany. With this measure taken by the Allies, how many Holocaust survivors did you expect to come forward?
How beautiful innocence is.

Where those mass graves at?
How i wish i was born then! i would have stacked a ton of fiat
Someone in my family was one. Not Jewish - a dutch resistance fighter. Not only survived, actually escaped a concentration camp.
This stuff did happen. The mistake people make is thinking the whole thing was about Jews. They weren't even the majority of the victims, even if their part is true. I phrase it that way because I am skeptical of their story of genocide while Israel conducts a genocide. That doesn't add up, skepticism is required. But the holocaust did happen, but perhaps not as portrayed. Maybe there were no Jews. I am forced to consider this possibility.
The Allies also had concentration camps, even in the US.
The mistake is to only see one side of the story.
And at the end of World War II, many Germans died in Allied concentration camps, and when I say many, I mean millions.
the proportions are different tho
I'd like to know more about that. Maybe I'll search later today. Not much time now
well sometimes you just need a wind.
part of my family was incinerated back then.
germans killed about 0.5m people in our country. jews, not jews. mostly slavs.
"fun" part is that the other part of my familly was killed in greece by junta who fougth against communists. And another part by communists in my country.
This is the point: no one sees the gray areas.
Something similar happened in my family; they had to flee from both fascists and communists.
one can't hate socialists enough
in the USA there were interment camps or concentration camps for immigrants from Japan from 1941 onwards
between 1.5 and 2 million German soldiers of the Wehrmacht died in Eisenhower's death camps in Germany (‘Rheinwiesenlagern’) - members of the SS and Waffen-SS were usually executed immediately or subjected to ‘special treatment’
in addition, between 12 and 15 million German civilians ‘disappeared’ between 1945 and 1949
Not to mention the countless civilian casualties in Germany and Japan during the Allied bombing campaign in the last three years or so of the Second World War.
