I never asked "why", so you must be confusing me with someone else from this thread. That said, "why" is an interesting question that can be explored, but "why" is not the same as "everyone would do this". > The history of armies and wars are people exactly like that. There were multiple genocides in history and it involves killing children each time. ISIS included. Rape included. In recent history very little resembles WWII in scale, savagery and murder. Things in Africa in more recent history, I guess, and the Armenian genocide that even Hitler paid attention to. But WWII's scale of bloodshed and ethnic cleansing is unmatched, as is the systematic, planned nature of said cleansing. > There were multiple genocides in history and it involves killing children each time. I'm not even sure what you're arguing here. Maybe that because killing of children happened before and after, that the Trawniki weren't monsters to be singled out and repudiate every time they are mentioned? I disagree. They were monsters, the worst of the worst. Notice I didn't claim the Trawniki invented ethnic cleansing or rape though. If you mention some other army that killed children, maybe hacked them to pieces using machetes during one of Africa's stomach churning conflicts, I'm ready to call them monsters too. Are you?
