Thank you Karl.

I can no longer watch the war films I enjoyed as a child, precisely because of the Germanophobia that they all force down our throats.

Are there any neutral or even pro German war films around?

Das Boot is maybe the only one I can think of.

I'd say the better war films/series are:

‘Das Boot’

'1944' (about the Estonian SS)

‘The Battle of Britain’ (Luftwaffe officers actually advised the filmmakers)

‘Generation War’ (ignore the silly sociopathic SS officer)

‘The Man with the Iron Heart’ (Death of the assassins is a-historical as they didn't kill any Germans in the gun fight and the ‘Gestapo torture’ is seriously overdone but otherwisenot bad)

‘Colditz’ (Well done series in general)

‘Secret Army’ (Possibly one the best WWII series ever albeit with some absurd stuff in later series like the Reich using homosexual brothels)

‘Will’ (Despite some absurd brutality it isn't that bad)

'It Happened Here' (Old film which imagines Britain if Operation Sealion had happened; a little bit of silliness like the Germans murdering civilians but features 1950s NS actually explaining National Socialism and also a young Colin Jordan I believe).

The Eagle Has Landed is pretty good. Shows the Fallschirmjäger as being honourable men willing to risk their lives to protect innocents and give their Colonel a chance to take out one of the most evil men who lived in the twentieth century.

On the other end of the spectrum there's Allo Allo. They do make a lot of jokes about the Germans, but they're mostly in good fun rather than seriously demonising them, plus they make all the same jokes about the French and English so it works out.

It's really interesting to watch in that it's still considered socially acceptable but it absolutely couldn't be made today since it covers the holy war without any righteous condemnation of the evil side.

I remember seeing the Monty Python sketch about a Mr Hilter and his "officers" browsing a map of Ilfracombe? when the map was really of Stalingrad.

It was silly and not at all demonising.

Back when the BBC wasn't shit.

Well, "das Boot" is basically a German pre-woke-era film based on an autobiography. So, yes, it's neutral. And yes, just thinking about "Fury" makes my blood boil. Utterly disgusting jewish revenge fantasies molded into a film.

I have to disagree somewhat. Das Boot was written by a cynical anti war type and doesn't represent the mood on the Uboats at all. A great overview with lots of emotion is Wolfgang Frank "Die Wölfe und der Admiral".

That's what I meant with "neutral". It wasn't glorifying anything, but at least it wasn't vilifying Germans but portraying them as normal humans.

Excellent review agreed same for "Saving Private Ryan", "Inglorious Bastards", "Schindler's List". Any thoughts on "Von Ryan's Express"?

The jews are an inauthentic people and, consequently, cannot help but make inauthentic art. There are very few exceptions to this condition.

The only good thing about this movie was the end scene when the honorable SS soldier finds the frightened tanker cowering under his tank, recognizes his defeat, and leaves him be. It was indicative of how the entire SS operated through the war. With honor and compassion.

…my aunt told me a story that when Germans were retreating from their village Velke Levare (near capital Bratislava, Slovakia) they told the parents to hide any jewelry, watches and daughters because the Russian front was coming through. The first line of “defense” of Red Army was rifraf from gulags in Siberia promised to get freedom if they fight in the war (murderers, rapists, thieves in majority amongst them). When Russians came they were asking if they have watches and young daughters. The parents said they were poor and had nothing. Russians took over their house squeezing the family in one small room while they’d sleep in their bedroom. Them being really uncivilized and constantly drunk peed in the corner of the bedroom instead using the toilet (I had to believe my aunt saying that they never saw the toilet before and didn’t know what’s it for). After the was they had to scrape the paint to the brick and redo the walls it was so disgusting. She was a baby but her older sister (13 at the time of war) told her everything and that’s how she remembered and told me. Her sister was was hiding for the most of the nights in a pigsty for one week before they left. Most of the time they were drunk and that “helped” her not to be raped.

She said when Germans came they gave kids chocolate and were civilized.

My grandma (Ruskovce on the East part of the country bordering with Russia (now Ukraine) told me a story that Russians wanted to take their cow, she pleaded she needs it for the family and a baby (my dad was born in September 1943) and don’t remember the details but my grandma’s brother shot a Russian officer but don’t know the reason, might have been related to his unit stealing from people (?). Then he had to hide and fled to Austria and then to Canada/USA where he had died in early 60s.

Yes, the sheer number of films I can no longer watch since being ""JQ'd" is significant. This is certainly one of them. I had to ritually drop it (and Valkyrie, God forbid), in the trash can a couple of years ago.

Brad Pitt's character in "Inglorious Basterds" is revolting. He's like a caricature from a jew created Country Music Television Network video. They were appealing to the "redneck" Americans to sign up and fight the islamo-nazis in the middle east.

Why shouldn't these Zionist Hollywood propagandists be on trial for war crimes and crimes against humanity? They've cultivated and atmosphere that made the Gaza holocaust possible, the Mideast war atrocities, the (((Zelensky))) crimes... gave them propaganda cover, putrefied the culture to the benefit of ZOG, profiteered on all of it. I could go down the list of jewish treason and treachery that all of them have contributed to. How many of these Zionists "ascended" on (((Epstein's))) Lolita Express?

It was such obvious and grotesque propaganda that it was unwatchable.

I feel you Americans (or people from any former Allied country) should stop getting your history lessons from Hollywood AND ALSO from the fringes of the Internet. It makes your brains rot. I grew up with the people who experienced the Holocaust (as perpetrators mind you) and it took my grandfather and other people from my family great courage to admit to what they had done, and yet when I tell people about that nowadays all you dumb Americans and other English speaking Neo-na... ahem I mean "historical revisionists" who never even sat a foot into Germany and don't speak a word of German (well, maybe 2 words) are calling my grandfather and all of my family liars. You guys should be ashamed of yourself. Some witnesses are still alive even today, if you think they are all liars, why don't you tell them that to their face and explain how your "extensive research" conducted on Neo-Nazi websites disproves what they saw with their own eyes!

Valid point, but it was a nasty time, all round, not least because just like today everyone is pitted against each other endlessly bickering about false dialectics. In fact the 'war' never ended just now it happens in the mind and involves everyone whereas in the past the propaganda was simpler and people were used as meat in a mincer.

There are endless stories, ones which will never be told and ones which aren't told enough and ones that are told ad nauseum — there are two things about WWII which outstrip everything else including the Shoah (the actual holocaust occurred against the German people in Dresden plus the legally-circumventing 1945-46 'POW' camps which erased countless (tens of thousands? over a million?) million German men and the rapes of 2 million German women by the Red and other armies)

The two things to put in perspective are that the war(s) in the early 20th century erased a massive number of the population of Europe (which was 30% of the human population and is today about 6% and is further being deliberately erased by replacement migration policy of the United Nations) and secondly that as General Patten correctly stated 'we fought the wrong enemy' by allowing the USSR to exist when it should have been crushed instead of (or before) Germany. All the things that Hitler was CORRECT about are still plaguing humanity today - ALL of us, the only ones who benefit are the most nihilistic anti-human globohomo criminals who are slowly inculcating the whole population of the planet into their global cult of homogeneity.

Everyone lost WWII, the only winners were Israel and Communism (which has now infected every man woman and child to the degree that some of them don't even think they are men or women anymore) and the other winners of course being the enablers of those two criminal states and ideologies, the Anglo-American Cabalist-Freemasonic clan.

This is all in plain sight for anyone to see, so can't be refuted, only observed or ignored. Of course the gaslighting is very effective. It's basically magic. But how else is evil going to work but in plain sight while nearly no-one sees it and instead argues endlessly about a bunch of distracting horrors, which is what pretty much everything has now become.

Why aren't these Zionist propagandists on trial for war crimes, crimes against humanity, the Gaza and Mideast holocaust, the (((Zelensky))) regime crimes? They've all contributed to pro-Zionist propaganda. They've all suckled at the ZOG tit. They've all putrefied the culture for jewish lucre and a pat on the head from kosher nostra criminals in Hollywood, they all wash each other's backs...

I would one day like to see retroactive laws used against all of the purveyors of disgusting anti-European bile in the media.

It should be possible to punish the most egregious examples at the least.
