What I meant was fascist people. I woulda called 'em pigs then. But the
Ukrainians did most of the killing of Jews etc.

Nate,

I still don´t know what you mean. But if you are referring to Germans,
well, most of them don´t like and don´t want to be called Nazis. I know and
have know a lot of German people, and most of them are nice and friendly,
just like we are.
They are our neighbours, for I myself am a Dutchman.
But many people over here in Europe have suffered enormously during the
second world war, because of the Nazi Regime. I know at least one person,
who still does not like any German, because of what has happened to him.
As a young man, he was taken prisoner and was forced  to work for the
enemy.
That was called Arbeitseinsatz. He happened to be in Dresden, the moment it
was bombed. He survived, but till this day he is not able to tell exactly
what he has seen that day.
This war was caused by the Nazis. And look in your history books, or ask
older people, what they have done to European Jews, gypsies, the Poles, the
Russians and to the inhabitants of all the other countries were they fought
their terrible war.
But at last the war was over and Europe was freed, thanks to the British,
the Americans, the Canadians and all the others allied forces.
Now you are Canadian, and in this country there are still many people very
gratefull towards your fellow Canadians.
These days there are still some fascist people all around the world that
like to call themselves ´Nazis´, but these are very dangerous and ugly
people. The best thing to do with these people is to fight them with all
legal force we have, in the name of freedom and democracy. Or we should
plainly ignore them.
So these are my ideas when I hear the word ´Nazi`.
If you like to chat with European people, go join some European Forum or
something like that. But don´t ever use the word ´Nazi´, and think before
you write.
