Cessions, decision-makers.

Rudolf Augstein (whoever that is) wrote about the Potsdam conference:
"The ghostly thing at the Potsdam Conference was that a war crimes court was decided by victors, who, according to the standards of the later Nuremberg trial, would all have had to hang. Stalin at least for Katyn, if not at all. Truman for the totally unnecessary bombing of Nagasaki, if not already for Hiroshima, and Churchill at least as Oberbomber of Dresden, at a time when Germany was already done. All three of them had decided so-called 'population resettlements' of crazy proportions; all three knew how criminal they were. "

Discuss.

I even got a relevant sign as related picture.

I mean it is rather ironical that they complain about Dresden after complete destruction of Warsaw and destruction of Rotterdam

Strategic bombings did happen all the time, done by both sides.

About the population resettlements, I do think it was to prevent any "saving german minorities" pretexts for war.

In the last thread it was mentioned that Bombings were left out of Nuremberg.

Only Stalin was comparable to Hitler. Allies crimes were nothing if you compare them with Germany's.

Population resettlement was easily the best possible decision.

>population resettlements
Steal a bit of Poland and keep it.

Why? Because.

Steal a bit of Germany for the Poles so they stop complaining as loudly.

>>2691043
I meant that for Rudolf Augstein's quote rather than Nuremberg trials
>>
>>2691029
Apparently Rudolf Augustein was the founder of Der Spiegel.

>>2691045
I thought the Poles, the Chechs & Co got them to leave too?

And wasn't stalin part of the Allies.

Did you want to say: American crimes were nothing if you compare them with Germany's.

Though they committed a fair amount of shit.

Just a note that they left the Bombings out of it.

I wonder if there is a list of unnecessary destruction.
>>

Yes, but it was for the better. Poland had many problems with their minorities before the war. Stalin made Poland ethnically homogeneous.
