There was no approval attached to my analysis.

I believe that due to recent German history with Nazism and current leftism, that people should be very wary of Germans. However, I believe that people should like individual Germans who do separate themselves from evil ideologies and who are on the side of G-d and Israel.

To be honest, I think that most British such as myself, with any perception of history, are still wary of the Germans. It will take a generation or two before this disappears. I am also suspicious of the young French and other Europeans of the former Allied countries who deride any special relationship with the UK, conferring this to an older generation and to history. This is just ignorance. If 6 million of my own people had been destroyed by the Germans then I would also be permanently embittered. However, I have to say that the Allied powers, the RCC, the Red Cross and the ordinary people of many of the occupied countries also showed very little concern for what was happening. The railroad to Auchwitz seems to have been one of the few structures left intact by the end of the war.

I think we should see the politic and economic reality of today in Germany. And this reality doesn't look bright :o
