30 January 1933, marked a turning point in German history. It was the day that Adolf Hitler was appointed German Chancellor. Once in power, Hitler swiftly abolished Germany’s democracy, installing himself as a ruthless dictator. World War II, begun by the Nazis, caused widespread destruction throughout Europe, leading to millions of deaths. Today, numerous memorial sites in Berlin commemorate the tremendous suffering causing by the Nazis during this time.

It is a shame that you include one of the Bulgarian Micky Mouse tourist scammers, usually found near Brandenburg Gate, in the intro of your sincere and important video. They force tourists to accept flowers pretending to gift them, but then always demand money and often refuse to take the flower back. The women inside the Micky Mouse costumes themselves are often beaten up and threatened by their masters, a couple of lads running this scheme.

I have seen on German television that it seem that the Berlin memorial to the murdered six million Jewish men women and children has become a great spot for young German to have fun selfies and even have sex. The way the memorial was built makes it easy for young people to go deep into the blocks so as not to be heard or found. I’m wondering if the young people of Berlin will be having Disco rave parties there one day.

I was in Berlin last May and it an amazing city, with so much history in the last 100 years. Because of WW2 and the Cold War it feels like a crossroads of many things that have shaped the city. We visited a lot of the Holocaust memorials and while they are great definitely worth visiting, there did feel like an element of the Germans blaming Croats and Poles among others for a lot of the concentration camps. More indirect blame but still felt like their could have been more ownership in Germany's role in this

How much more can one 'own it' than putting a giant memorial next to the country's biggest tourist attraction?

Why should new Germans be born with "German guilt" and shame you'd like to bring? In Russia they glorify Stalin and he killed alot more. Nobody talks about that? I'm sick of this conversation, Germany knows its past....we know!!..Let's remember, not repeat it and MOVE ON RESPECTFULLY!

No, the Germans did not start the war, don't you know that it is France and Britain that declared war on Germany, pretending it was in defense of Poland, but they never came to help Poland, they even abandoned her to Soviet domination at the end of the war for the next 50 years, they just didn't care, they only used her to get their war and dropped her as soon as she stopped being useful, that's what empires do.

Germany's invasion of Poland (without a declaration of war) on September 1, 1939 marks the start of World War II. Great Britain and France declared war on Germany on September 3. The basis for their move was the British-French pledge of support for the independence of Poland on March 31, 1939.

@rosesprog1722 Жыл бұрын

@@DWTravel No, Germany's invasion of Poland marked the invasion of Poland, a local, personal conflict to stop the Poles from killing Germans and attacking people across the border. It only became a world war when Britain, France and their colonies worldwide declared war on Germany instead of coming help Poland as they said they would do, declaring war on Germany didn't help Poland whatsoever, the empires manipulated the Poles to get their war and then they abandoned her to the Soviets for the next 50 years. They did the same thing with Belgium in WW1, they made promises, but didn't keep them.

Germany is the only country in this world that keeps on criticizing itself rather than making it positive. There are many major countries who commited far worse crimes, uk, france, russia , japan and even us they never criticise themself how germany does. This needs to be changed.
