As is so often the case, the realities of past events can leave us both sad and sickened. A student once asked me, "So why do we have to learn about all this bad stuff"? May we never do it out of morbid curiosity, but in the interest of truth, accountability, and our desire to avoid such blunders in our time. Dr. Mark Felton's unrivaled scholarship lends support to those of us who vow, NEVER AGAIN.

I agree. I worry many people can't connect things though. Hitler at the time was the government. I think a lot of people these days would be even more compliant to follow government orders than even then. It's a reminder, when I hear about this sickening evil act of the Nazi soldiers, that people need to look to God, Jesus Christ, to what is right over the orders given by government officials.

I’m an Aussie. I was a high school history teacher from 1990 til 2015. History as a subject went from being compulsory until grade ten to a poorly patronized elective subject. The result is a depressing ignorance of the broad sweep of history. WWII is barely touched on these days in senior history, so very few Australian under 40 know what fascism and totalitarianism is.

To Dr Felton I have met an elderly Italian man 94 years of age on the hospital my mother has been admitted to. His name is Valerio and he working and living in the nearby street of Via Rosella at the time this event occurred. Only last night 26-5-22 was he telling me the events of this killing off 33 SS police and later rounding up of 330 Italian civilians where Valerio locked himself away after the SS came knocking on his door and escaped execution. He lives in Sydney Australia and I though this was an amazing story as I have read about this event of the Rome massacre by the SS.

Years ago I visited the site of the Via Rasella attack. I was struck by two things. First,how small the area actually is and second how strong the explosion must have been. Shrapnel scars are still visible on the surrounding buildings all the way up to fourth and fifth floor levels . I think the locals leave them for historical reasons. The southern side of the street is lined with a tall berm -the force of the blast was well concentrated. Good placement. It’s between the Fountain of Trevi and the Piazza Barberini. There’s no plaque or signage to denote the event, only the shrapnel damage.

Several people in the comments have said how much they'd love it if you were to go on a U.S. speaking tour and I absolutely agree. Reactionaries are imposing historical revisionism on public schools and politically sensitive books (i.e. those which cover exceedingly important topics such as the Atlantic Slave Trade, the U.S. civil war, colonialism, and the 1st/2nd World Wars). As far as I'm concerned you are the world's preeminent WW2 scholar. As well, you are extremely talented at conveying the magnitude and unparalleled importance of the war along with all of the catastrophes that happened in its wake. If anyone can reach the citizenry of this country and convey the utmost importance of knowing our history it's you.

The story of the „German speaking Italians from the city of Bozen“ is not well explained. If you see these group of people in relation of the time, right after the 1st WW. You should explain that the region of Südtirol was Austrian until the treaty of Versailles. They felt occupied by Italy and saw a chance to be freed by the Germans. That’s why they volunteered in huge numbers to SS, Gestapo and Wehrmacht. So from their point of view the Italians weren’t their country man but occupiers of this Austrian region called Südtirol. So it isn‘t astonishing at all.

Speaking of Dutch Courage, any chance, Dr. Felton, that you could look into the activities of the Dutch Resistance Groups like that of CS-6 in Amsterdam? We hear about the French Maquis, bit little of other Resistance Groups. Thanks.

Also terrible is that all of the allied countries took into their country some Germans they deemed critical needs. As an example, the US took in Werner Von Braun. Don’t misunderstand what I point out. They all are guilty of this. Perhaps the beginning of the end results justifies the means?

To some groups, it was a necessary price, but one that stabbed the Germans too. Like in Yugoslavia, they burned and killed a village if it was known that it hosted families of partisans, so when the news came to light, the civilians either joined the resistance or waited to be put down, I bet this happened somewhere in Italy
