What are you talking about?
The article compares the current situation in Greece to post-WW2 Germany, I'm explaining why it doesn't make any sense to make such a comparison. I'm not talking about who deserved what or whatever, morality, retribution or anything related to that.
Go talk about morality or retribution somewhere else.
"After WWII, what the Western Allies wanted to happen was for West Germany to become strong again and serve to resist Soviet expansion."
Wrong, they wanted to transform Germany into an under-developed agrarian state that would never pose a threat again. Read your history. It only changed due to the Soviet threat, but that was after years of the previous policy.
