I read that article and I don't see any evidence of a surprisingly large impact. There's one report by the SS that the leaflets spread unrest. Of course that was right after Stalingrad, when it became clear that the Nazis had no chance of winning the war any more.

> I read that article and I don't see any evidence of a surprisingly large impact. "Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize." Sorry, I should've used a more objective phrase than "surprisingly large". I meant, I would have expected the group would have been crushed and noone heard about them around Germany during the war, let alone overseas, when instead, well, reading those two pages I was surprised, and gratified, by the impact they had, during WWII in Germany and around the world, and ever since. What else could my comment mean?! > Of course that was right after Stalingrad "Of course" is never a helpful phrase I think, except for patting oneself on the back. What is this, Peep Show?! I can't help hearing that in David Mitchell's voice. e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApslS7RKxYA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApslS7RKxYA
