    YT will red flag it and take it down, I know, happened to me for just a couple of pics from the sixties where the YT bots said it was a violent image.

    What is the point of showing obscured images? Show them as they truly are or not at all.

    I had four uncles over in the Western front and my father was in the Pacific. One of my uncles toured a concentration camp.

    Shame shame for blurring the important scenes! Our class in school stopped watching as soon as the first couple scenes popped up....we are mature enough to see the TRUTH and refuse to be censured like this! Sad, otherwise seems a good documentary

    When my father was 6 years old hisl village was carpet bombed by the Americans 6000 people lost their lives still to this day we can't find out any records of who we are because the churches were bombed . Benito Mussolini paid people who gave birth to a son Benito. Zadar was occupied by the Italians and annexed by Hitler. My father was Italian and was sent to Ireland as a refugee by the Italian Catholic Church fearing his name Benito could have repercussions as the Croatians were coming back to their own country. My father never returned for 43 years he never found out his relatives or the history of our name. I researched our name because it's unique my father tried to do this several times but he failed. Then to my amazement I found our name . On the currency of a coin.also a statue of this man. This man became famous because he invented double entry to accountancy. His name was Cotrugli. R,I.P dad

    From what my great uncles saw and lived through, there was no such thing as a "good" german.

    They that be not judged on this earth shall surely be judged by God himself. No soul living or dead will be free from judgment. All will be judged. May those receive justice who were wronged
