The Genocide of the German People
More Germans died after World War II than died during it. Since they didn't (and couldn't) fight back, it was cold-blooded murder – by the victorious Allies. The "good guys" who fought and won the "good war."
The ongoing blockade of Germany for almost three more years, resulting in deprivation and famine; the automatic arrest of millions, with hundreds of thousands dying in the process; the ethnic cleansing of Eastern Europe of many of its minorities – Germans and others; and the expulsion of some 12 million Germans from eastern Germany (Pomerania, Posen, Silesia, East and West Prussia) – these are only a few of the crimes committed by the victorious powers after the war.

The reason why I have not repeated the oft-told tale of Nazi crimes against humanity is that it is already familiar to every American. It is our own record which is not known, and it seems high time that the victors began to search their own consciences. Freda Utley, The High Cost of Vengeance, p….
