As we have come to realize, truth usually goes out the window when it comes to war. Most modern wars are fought for ulterior motives than what the public is told, deception and lies are used to initiate the wars, and the truth about what really happens during the war is systematically suppressed and hidden from public view.
WW2 is no different. Much of what most people think they know about WW2 is completely false. For starters, Germany did not initiate the war, and they were not "seeking to conquer the world". In reality, they moved into Poland in order to protect ethnic Germans who were being persecuted in Poland, re-taking land that was stolen from Germany and given to Poland as part of the Versailles Treaty after WW1. Then, England and France declared war on Germany, which initiated the worldwide conflict. Furthermore, this war was all planned out in advance by a cabal of elite international bankers -- for the purpose of weakening and destroying Europe.
The victors of wars "write the history". Or re-write the history. The lies that they used as propaganda to start the wars become "fact". They suppress the many atrocities that they committed against the defeated enemy. And they fabricate mythical "atrocities" that the defeated enemy is said to have committed, in order to demonize the enemy and "justify" the fighting of the war.
People only want to talk about war crimes committed by Germany. The deliberate mass murder of non-combatant men, women, and children is the epitome of a war crime -- such as fire-bombing of German and Japanese cities. It violated various international treaties and every standard of decency, as it related to acceptable conduct in war. The deliberate mass murder of German POWs, of course, also was a clear war crime and blatant violation of various treaties and international laws. And the U.S. government and Allies deliberately and carefully planned these massive war crimes -- against not only Germany, but also Japan.

- 1) Did you know that at least 2 million (and probably many more) German women were mass raped by the Soviet Army near the end of WW2, in one of the biggest acts of mass rape of women in all of history? Read about it here and here. By the way, this mass rape of German women was encouraged and in fact ordered by the highest commanders of the Soviet Army.
- 2) Did you know that immediately following the end of WW2, 15 million ethnic Germans were expelled (and at least 2 million were murdered in the process) from areas of what is now Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Romania -- in the largest act of ethnic cleansing in world history? Read about this here and here and here.
- 3) Did you know that the Soviet Army took approximately 3.5 to 4 million German prisoners of war, and marched them into gulags inside of Russia, used them for slave labor for many years after the war, and that only a small fraction of those men ever returned to their homes in Germany? Almost all of them were murdered or died in the gulags. This newspaper article from 1953 says that 2.8 million German POWs had died in the Soviet Gulags within 5 years after the war was over.
- 4) Did you know that the United States captured approximately 2 million German POWs after the war, and then placed them in concentration camps in the Rhine river valley, which consisted of putting them in open fields surrounded with barbed wire with no shelter, and very little access to food and water -- and that they deliberately murdered at least 1 million German POWs in these camps? This newspaper article from April 24, 1945 admits that the U.S. Army has killed 992,578 German prisoners of war in these camps in just three weeks near the end of the war! These Rhine river camps became known as "Eisenhower's death camps".
- 5) Many know about the fire-bombing of German cities. Did you know that these bombing raids were specifically designed not to destroy military targets, but rather instill terror in the German people by mass murdering civilians (non-combatant men, women, and children), and that at least 600,000 German civilians were mass murdered in these bombings? More on this here.
