Is it unresolved guilt over the Holocaust that is behind Germany's blind belief in Israeli propaganda? Or have they simply not dealt with the fascism that led to the Holocaust?

The Soviets kept the Nazi scientists in prison tho… and after they finished their work they were left to rot.

Stalin famously wanted to execute every single military officer from Nazi Germany after the war, and Churchill threw a hissy fit saying “they didn’t deserve it, they were just protecting their country like any good (white, racist) man would!”.

And then the US “rehabilitated” many of the Nazis and put them into positions of power, in the West German US occupied territories, in the nascent NATO, in the US itself….
