History / The story about German- Polish reconciliation [194]
Don`t try to shift Russian Red Army crimes on Poles and also try to keep things in perspective. If you want to quote some crimes try to give an example of Polish soldiers crimes rather than Red Army soldiers, because we are not responsible for Red Army`s soldiers crimes. Try to find some examples of crimes done by Poles and then we will jbe able to udge the magnitude of them from the right perspective.
If I was a German I would go to Poland and visit all death camps monuments, put there some flowers and prayed for forgiveness as Willy Brandt did. Also German children shoud take an example from Jewish to make such trips compulsory for young students.
Some history :
The planned expulsion of the Germans were made on the basis of the Potsdam Agreement of 1945, further specific basis for the expulsions of Germans were the agreements concluded between the Government of the Polish and Soviet military administration in Germany from 05/05/1946 was (another was signed in 1947, 1948, 1949, and with the GDR in 1950) and the Polish-British from 02/14/1946 On the basis of these agreements the Germans were expelled from Polish to British (2/3 displaced) and Soviet (1/3 displaced) occupied zone. As a result of actions taken immediately after the war against the German population in Poland has left the territory of our country in the years 1945-1950 approximately 3.2 million Germans, which caused a decrease in the number of Polish territory to 1,8-1,6 million people. 2
Wild expulsion
The first movement of German civilians in the west began even before the shift to the front line of the Odra and Nysa (fall 1944). After the war, and before the signing of the Potsdam Agreement, so-called. wild expulsions took place. They left the worst memories of German refugees, projecting the whole problem expulsions from the east. German orders to leave the eastern territories of the Reich were issued far too late (January 1945), and willful desertion meant escape. The German population until the last moment misled by wartime Nazi propaganda and Hitler's dreams of victory was not quite prepared to evacuate. This made a huge panic in front of the approaching Soviet army resulted in the death of German civilians. This took place mainly in East Prussia, war stories and reports came mainly from the German press, which further resulted in East Prussia surprise "the life of war" and the subsequent actions of Soviet soldiers.
The Red Army entering to the first German lands has resulted in the massacre of the civilian population, which for various reasons, did not evacuate with the German army. There were reports of Russian soldiers looting, murdering, raping of women. Particularly popular is the story of the frontier of East Prussia Nemmersdorf village, whose inhabitants were mostly killed in a brutal manner and all the women before their death raped.
Such inhuman behavior of Soviet troops from the socio-psychological point of view is explained by general wildness caused by the war, and especially all retaliation for crimes carried out by Wehrmacht soldiers. The undisputed fact is that it happened in the areas of East Prussia where Soviet soldiers could unload the hatred of the enemy and humiliation of the war..
