What's with all the pro-Nazi comments here?


While I get the fatigue with (yet) another WWII movie showing how bad the Nazis were (while the far worse soviets are left nicely alone and forgotten, maybe because they ended on the winning side), most of them seem from straight-up neo Nazis.

I mean, sure Reinhard Heydrich was an incredibly proficient soldier, but what did you expect? You don't get to those positions unless you're cut out for it. I'm pretty sure most if not all counterparts in Russia/USA/France/England/etc would be similar formidable persons.

But this guy you know, he was one of those that if you saw straight into his eyes, you would see nothing but darkness (how George Jung described his first meeting with Pablo Escobar).

Not exactly the best candidate to cling to to bring up WWII's wrongs committed by the Allies (meaning the soviets). The Pianist does a very good job of that already (how the SS officer whom saved the pianist and in fact countless other Jews got a death by torture reward from his soviet captors at the end).

This REALLY isn't the guy to defend, in any way/shape or form.

If you think guys like him are needed to defend Europe against the Islamic invasion/threat you better get a history lesson, for many in Europe thought like that of Hitler regarding Communism (that he was the only force standing up against it, thus the lesser evil). That didn't exactly turn out too well...

What if everyone just said, no?

I'm watching all these people die because some nutjob started his rhetoric.

And I can help think what if everyone just said, no.

What if you just made sense?

No to what? No to Hitler? It would have taken massive passive resistance.

People loved Hitler. They said yes yes yes yes yes yes yes.

I have just read one of the most ignorant review of this movie in user reviews by so called history teacher who said "This operation have zero value in history". I was like WTF?? That so called teacher didn't even know that Heydrich was the master mind of all Nazi operation. In Hitler's word "Heydrich had a heart of stone". His death led to a wave of merciless reprisals by Nazi , including the destruction of villages & killing of civilians.

its not about trolling only. They are ignorant to say "What Nazi did was fine or move on from it" So many people have lost their lives. You can't be this heartless

For starters, I've read that Heydrich was running on the side internal investigations regarding conspirators like the Valkyrie operation, and was THIS close to exposing them when he got killed.

Had he survived, Valkyrie and other traitors would have been neutralized and the Nazis may very well have won the Eastern Front war that year, and thus the whole war.

His death DID factor greatly, to the ALlied's favour.

World War 2 has been done to death in the movies. This is at least the third movie on Reinhard Heydrich. It's all been done before. What about stories to do with Allied war crimes -
Churchill allowed millions of Indians to starve to death during the Bengal famine because he considered them to be "beastly people". He said he regretted that Gandhi was not amongst the victims -

Churchill also supported the policy to kill as many German civilians as possible even at the expense of military targets. It was called the Lindemann Plan -

Stalin killed millions of people before the war even started. Roosevelt and Churchill knew about the holodomor and ignored it -

Roosevelt and Churchill also knew the Soviets executed the Poles at Katyn but covered up for Stalin -

There was mass rape of women by Allied soldiers -

Don't hold your breath waiting for Hollywood or the British film industry to make any movies about these Allied war crimes -

nearly all your sources are revisionist/pro nazi.
Said it before,say it again,if all the allied war crime claims were true and a quarter of the Axis ones were true the Axis would still be the bad guys.

But most of the allied war crime stuff is hard to prove,yes rapes by French colonial troops,but what about the lies of OTHER LOSSES for example? the sources for the allied war crimes are so often far right types,not academics.

But you will say they are biased?
