Video: Released Footage of Post-war Mass Murder of German Civilians in Prague

[OneWolf]

Warning Video is Graphic.

Public broadcaster Czech TV will screen a documentary film on Thursday entitled Zabíjení po česku, or ‘Killings Czech style’. It features unique footage of a massacre of over 40 ethnic Germans that took place in Prague in May, 1945, shortly after the end of the war. The authors say they want to draw attention to the atrocities committed on German civilians in post-war Czechoslovakia, though More.. More.. More.. some historians believe this particular murder was carried out by Soviet troops.

The video is not the best of quality but you can clearly see the horrific images of these poor Germans getting beat,ran over and shot.
If the video does not work the first time just refresh the web page.

Although, I agree that this footage is very disturbing, it's about time that the media starts considering the history, that our ultra-liberal politically correct schools fail to acknowledge. It's about time, that the public is made aware of the fact that 20th century history does not end with the re-hashed stories, that the history channel publishes.

I find the negative comments attached to the video pretty shocking. 30 - 40 years of Holocaust education (it didn't start until the mid Seventies) has taken it's toll. My grandparent's generation, those who fought in the Second World War generally have a positive view of the Germans and Germany. War is war and most that I spoke to when I was growing up bore no malice. The use of the term Holocaust and the following relentless indoctrination of subsequent generations changed all that. When confronted with facts such as those shown in the video, a lot of people are either unwilling to accept what they are being shown or are outright hostile. Sad really, so long after the war.
