You know, I am willing to front the Germans for the good stuff that they did, but the bad really overshadows that, and by a huge amount. Starting and being the cause of WW2 nullifies any good will that the Germans could have built up with VW cars, the Authobahn, and engineering that really is just (word deleted) by any metric.
Germans and Muslims, sides of the same coin, no?

Id like to go ahead and comment on this post.
Why would a person comment about the Nazis with the statement "I'll probably get vilified for this..."? He KNEW poeple would flip but felt the need to make a very valid point.
The "Nazi's" were made up of Germans. Ordinary Germans. With the Nazi's in POWER it was extremely hard for those who didnt agree with the nazi's policies to fight back or speak out against it.
The Point? MOST Germans hated the Nazi Party too after it revealed its evil. But saying Germans- Muslims same thing is WAY out of line. You are saying all Germans are evil because of the Nazi's. You are saying all Muslims are evil because of extremist terrorists. That kind of hate makes you into exactly that which you hate. You are no Better.
The Germans were not evil or bad people. And the nation produced a lot of good too- from the good people.
ROGAN claimed that Van Braun was affiliated with Nazi's and must therefor be EVIL.
Therein lies the point. Someone else also posted that if Van Braun was a Nazi- Then Oskar Schindler was also a Nazi.
Lastly- You are not the first person i have seen post about the War Debt. WHAT is all this WINING about the War Dept? As a service provider and a contractor- my customers call me for things they didnt expect. A pipe broke or their house flooded. They didnt ask for it. They didnt expect it. They are the victim right? Why should they have to PAY me to fix it?
Because a debt is a debt. An honorable man pays his debts. He doesnt push them off on others. He accepts RESPONSIBILITY for his Home!! That is part of being a homeowner.
And considering that it took fifty years- i wonder how high or low they payments were- and what the interest was.
