Because oral history narrated by the individuals involved is always completely unbiased and shows the truth? Somebody interview some ex SS-officers, quick. I'm sure they have some fun things to say.
I love this. I have German relatives so I should find one who fought in WWII and use their interpretation of events as gospel as opposed to historians. If ninjacore had relatives who fought for Germany I guess she'd be a holocaust denier.
Many of the historians who are highly critical of the southern cause are southerners, in universities in the deep south.
Carpet baggers killed alot of Southern pride, thats why...
You're right. The Nazis were just misunderstood. They were trying to help the Jews, not hurt them! How dare the Allies give them all that bad press.
Ex-Confederates were free to write what they thought about their cause. Lee was free to run an university. Longstreet worked with Grant.
Ex-confederates could have easily rewritten their own history as well.
Not the same...tho their is the diff btw nazi soldiers and ss soldiers/gestapo, there were plenty of germans just fighting to pretect their people as well, don't paint a brush stroke to wide...
Yeah, but mine were still in Ireland. Did they fight by telekinesis like Irish X-Men?
You're not a big fan of a lot of people. You seem to be as angry as you are misinformed. You should work on that.
Our history is properly documented by those who know the truth...
And that still doesn't mean that the loser was right or fighting for a good cause.
But is does mean they often lie about their reasons for fighting afterwards to look better in the history books.
I'm not worshiping Lincoln, but based off that reply I'll assume that you have no evidence to support your claims.
Please remember, you are entitled to your own opinion, but not to your own facts.
If that were true then you'd be able to get me a solid link. But it appears you can't.
You mean like your ancestors in the confed army did?
A historian's job is a critical analysis of all accounts (yes, both sides) and then trying to put the pieces together. Not blindly believing what one side tells you. Maybe you should actually just read some books or articles from scientific journals.
So you support the slash and burn policies of Grant and Lincoln...
Incorrect...
No, Europe is a north-eastern state in the US. Didn't you know that? It's on all the most popular globes.
Hey, those potatoes oppressed us for centuries! We wont stop until they're all eaten!
Idiots with internet connections?
