12. Actually, Nazi is very specific and did NOT include scared conscripts.
Edited on Tue Apr-20-10 02:15 PM by RaleighNCDUer
Just as not everyone in the soviet union was not a communist, not everyone in Nazi Germany was a Nazi - but if you WERE a Nazi you deserve every bit of condemnation as any death camp guard. And the system they belonged to, and believed in, and that their modern counterparts believe is WAS an absolute authoritarian totalitarian system which is the only system that could have created the holocaust. If someone espouses Nazi principles today, knowing what they once led to, then he is a Nazi whether he claims the name or not.

There were NO good Nazis.

Not every term is a meaningless boogeyman. When I call someone a Nazi, it has a very definite meaning.
