| NATO’s embrace of Eastern Europe evokes a history of Nazi colonial violence |
| 2022-11-08 |
| A long form editorial from a Columbia professor. It was featured in the Live Journal blog of Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin. I'll never know why other than the keyword Nazi by Joseph Massad [MiddleEastEye] The ongoing effort since 1991 to bring Eastern Europe into the fold of Nato and the European Union is not the first such integration attempt by Western Europe in recent history. |

| #3 As an essay it is a sophomoric mishmash of assertions ...like a plate of spaghetti thrown against a wall to see what sticks. |

| #2 The Nazis would learn from the precedents of European colonial empires to craft their own plans for Europe ...Stopped reading right there. Had they learned, they would have treated the conquered as liberated to be uplifted, not as subhuman cattle. (Admittedly, some were better than others, the Brits being the best of the bunch, the French in the middle, and the Belgians at the very bottom) It's been pointed out beyond counting that had the Germans entered the USSR as liberators instead of genocidal conquerors, the USSR may well NOT have survived. The Germans could not have ultimately won the war, but they could have extended it quite some distance had they treated their Eastern European conquests with even the most basic decencies. Mike |
