Panorama are doing a very interesting programme
all about re enactors and their (alledged) links and sympaties to the Nazi's and the SS
co incidentally the Telegraph on Saturday 25 August also ran a feature on another
group of lads who get their jollies out of dressing up as Nazi's
this group choose not a normal run of the mill German Army to recreate
but a hardcore SS Unit-
where have I heard this before
the Sunday Times today 26 August also ran an article concerning these people.
An interesting thing was the groups claimed they helped out in promoting greater
understanding by appearing in films as extras such as Saving Pte Ryan and also
appearing in schools and such
no film or tv people could be found that ever used them- no school admitted to using them.
On a previous thread on this very issue - I was informed of the very same stuff
and when I scoffed I was threatened etc.
My views on this group are well known
i feel sorry for the genuine re enactors and military vechicle enthuasist
who worked hard and have a genuine interest, that they will now be lumped in
with what can be perceived as Nazi sympathisers
I pose a simple question
Should IMO which is a site intrinsically linked to the Irish Defence Forces
advertise or support in ANY way
ANY show that has in attendance ANY UNIT from any Army/ organisation etc
that has been convicted of a war crime.
to simplfly this- should we support shows that have SS Units- Khemer Rouge- the RPF
the murdering bastards in Crotatia, Serbia, Bosnia etc etc
As I am obviously totally against any idiots that glorify murdering bastards
I wont vote in this poll
