…The finds were uncovered at three sites in the Arnsberg forest, where members of the Waffen-SS and German army massacred 208 Polish and Russian forced laborers in March 1945, just before the end of World War II… link |

Evil. The war's over so why not just let them go? |

I can think of a reason: "In history, a great volume is unrolled for our instruction, drawing the materials of future wisdom from the past errors and infirmities of mankind." Edmund Burke |

We should always try to remember victims and what they went through, not just pave it over and forget. |

Maybe the Nazis thought they were better off with dead victims rather than live victims.  |

Wonder if anyone is doing any digging in East Prussia? Dead men, women, children tell no tales… |

Live victims = witnesses = war crime guilty verdicts. That's part of the reason for these evil acts. |

An act of desperation by evil men attempting to escape justice. I wonder if anyone was ever made to pay for these crimes? |

Just another very sad incident in a war so full of such horrors … We can't forget, as we must remember such heinous acts … so as to not let them happen again. But it seems … that has not happened yet … |

I cannot even begin to comprehend evil of that magnitude. |

Sadly I fear such horrors still go on. Bosnia anyone? |

A more current horror would have been Syria. |

Yes, Syria has been a very large step to the rear for mankind. And A'stan … well seems there was never too many steps forward. "You can't free a fish from water" … |
