Winston Churchill As Anthrax Bomber

90% of the German military WERE just professional soldiers, airmen, and
sailors, doing their duty to volk und vaterland.

I think you give too much credit to the German military, and indeed to
the human race. When you are in a society that condones extermination
camps, reprisal murders, torture of prisoners, and the like, it takes
a great act of courage to do otherwise. Perhaps 90 percent of the
German military (and any other military) would have acted correctly
had they been given a different example, but they weren't, and they
didn't.

I think you should reverse your percentages. Or else you should put an
asterisk after "duty" and specify that this included what a sane
society would deem crimes.

all the best -- Dan Ford
