Hi Sinissa, as far as I know it is true that the Pope is in full control of the Catholic Church, and that his word goes. But my knowledge of the political side of Catholicism is fairly weak, I have to admit. However, I do wonder exactly how much authority he wielded over this particular guy. I'm sure it would be eminently possible, given the whole 'World at War' scenario, that the Croation Archbishop could simply pay more attention to his new Nazi friends than his old Catholic boss. This is a very interesting (if rather horrific) area that I know very little about, and I'm grateful to you for bringing it up. Events in Yugoslavia tend to be relegated to 'German invades, Communists resist, Chetniks aid Germans, lots of nasty fighting, Germans get booted out,' which is nowhere near the full story... This is a whole new debate, and that is probably best not to go into. Definately not in this topic, anyway. [/quote]
It is bit more then that.Chetniks did not aid germans,they was first serbian resistans,and they was supported by UK and US till 1945,when was obviously that communist (TITO's partizans) will win.In same time when was war against germany,there was war between partizans,chetniks,ustasha,arnauts,(arnauts was albanian bandits,road robbers),and in Serbia was German puppet goverment,(so call Nedicevci, named by General Nedic their leader) in Croatia there Ante Pavelic ustasa.Civil war in Yugoslavia made more cashulties then war against Germans. Basicly roots of this latest war here,lies in WW II,desire of some nations for independents,and fear of minorities that history will repeat.
Joseph Mengele (the "Angel of Death") is the medical doctor you are thinking of. He disappeared after the war and is thought to have reached South America
That one.....hope that no-good, rotten, four-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, dickless, hopeless, heartless, fat-ass, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed sack of monkey sh** is dead.

. To bring a bit of folk color to the fighting in WW2 yugoslavia quoting from the italian writer malaparte , When he visited ante pavlovitch, the leader of the croats , he was charmed by pavlovitch , an urban and inteligent man with a soft voice , By the desk , there was a fisherman basket with a damp cloth on top , malaparte asked if it was sea food , pavlovitch smiled indulgently and said that no it was a gift from his oustachis fighters the basket containned eyes of serbes collected during the day. .
Pavelic's NDH (independant state Croatia) was the most bloody,and rhutless nazi country,and that way admited by the germans.On early 90's,when war in ex YU was close ,Croatia start to use they old marks,Ustasha's simbol,ustasha's militaty saluting,they monetary unit now is "Kuna" (what was monetary unit in NDH) etc,what scared Serbs,and contribute to provoke a war. And not only Serbs was target of their terminations,allso gypsy's and Jews,and any otther Slavic nations.
STALIN! the Holocaust killed about 6 million people. during Stalin's regime he caused the death of about 30 million people he beat the holocaust 5 times over
Actualy WWII casulties was roughly estimated at 62 milion dead,from that 37mil civilians,and im not really shure about ur claims that stalin caused 30m dets,maybe ,but just maybe if u count WWII casultais what was roughly 23m of dead. Hitler holocaust maybe directly done "only" 6 mil of casulties,but indirectly done 62 mil.I will like to see some data about Stalin kills,i dont doubht that he done something like that,but clearly hes small kid for Hitler.
U cant take wiki as reliable source,and eawen there is writen that precise nuber is unknown and that it go from 2-6milion dead.Othher thing what i find in this article,is clearly stalin vs hitler. And dont forget that Hitler blood bath lasted only 6 years,and Stalin ruled till 1953 (8y more).
i have read a new article published in 1989 by Janice Hamilton that placed the death toll as high as 40 million
Yep,article published few year before cold war ended,by western man.Many evidences reveiled after cold war was ower,that b4 was just guesing.
Ur right man,but topic is most ewil man of WWII,and it was not definitly stalin,and beside,most of his kills was done after WWII.
True,he was mentioned in this topic,but conclusio was that he did it under hitler blessing so,again Hitler is the man
