Looks similar to Vietnam, does it not? German soldiers check out a bunker.
A rare image of the Second World War. The western media perhaps avoided this picture. It shows men of the Wehrmacht giving a ceremonial burial to a dead British soldier. Men of honor, all.

Pardon us for going off-track with this picture. German origin people in Poland massacred by Polish communist (at the behest of Moscow) and some radical Polish groups. This was the cause and motive for the German invasion in September 1939.

History Quotes
May 1945 - If hell on earth existed, than it existed in Prague after May the 5th. 1945. Old men, women and children were beaten to death and maimed. Rapes, barbaric cruelties, horror-scenarios of hellish proportions - here they had been let lose.
- Ludek Pachmann, Czech Chess-Grand Master and publicist, forty years after the fact.

Snippets from History
This short but important battle played a key role in the decision to use atomic bombs when attacking Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The battle showed just how far Japanese troops would go to defend their country.
Snippets From History
Paulus didn't give the order to 6th Army to surrender, but his troops no longer had much fight left in them. Resistance faded out over the next two days, with the last die-hards finally calling it quits. One Red Army colonel shouted at a group of prisoners, waving at the ruins all around them: "That's how Berlin is going to look!

Points to Ponder: Why Is China Unstable?
The aim of individuals in any society is money and power. Societies that give equal chance to all its members to get them will be the most stable. That is why democracies are more stable than other systems of governance.
China after Deng's reform gave the chance to get rich but power is in the hands of an elite; the Communist Party of China. Membership to the party is at the whims of the local party bosses. This leaves out many people who crave political power dissatisfied and disgruntled. There in lies the roots of instability. The Party suppressed these demands once at Tiananmen in 1989. But force is hardly the way to deal with things like these.

Awesome page, awesome pictures. German died forever in 1945. :(
You wrote "Pardon us for going off-track with this picture. German origin people in Poland massacred by Polish communist (at the behest of Moscow) and some radical Polish groups. This was the cause and motive for the German invasion in September 1939."
There was no such incident. This is a lie.
Before war communism was prohibited in Poland and communists from Moskwa were traitors for all polish citizens.
Hitler was in pact with Stalin (check "pact Ribbetrop-Molotov") and they planned together attack on Poland, so don't tell about Poland working together with Stalin against german people in Poland. IN FACT HITLER COOPERATED WITH STALIN, not Polish people.
German citizens of Poland were loyal - a lot of them served in polish army in war 1939.
This subscribe to photo is like material of Goebbels's propaganda - lie only.
