throughout history, every nation has committed crimes against humanity - no exceptions. its not just nazi germany that is guilty.
think of north and south america before the europeans arrived, but thats ok becuase the native people wrent god fearing christians, to the extent that it was ok to be a native just as long as you stayed put on your little "reserve" as a museum exhibit for all the "developed" people to point and stare at.
slavery was rife under the British Empire - and how did Britain acquire their empire? it wasnt by asking for it nicely - and anyone who opposed was villified by historians in the name of patriotism. how is that any different from nazi germany? or stalinist russia?
noone on this forum is condoning or supporting the atrocities of the second world war, but just dont think it was only the axis forces that were reponsible for "evil" deeds.
anyway i feel this topic has gone way to deep for a forum about a flight sim. as an aircraft enthusiast, its a shame not more examples of axis machinery survive, particularly airworthy ones. i would love to see fw-190's and bf110's flying alongside mustangs, spitfires etc they were machines built for a purpose, regardless of political alignment.
