aillariononv - мудак.

papasha_mueller — 30.01.2014 Это опять-таки к предыдущему.
Но цитирует он другого мудака, опять забыл его фамилию.
Оба рвут на груди рубахи по поводу миллионов немцев, якобы изголоданных злыднем Сталиным в Германии, причем данные идут не откуда-нибудь, а из источника под названьем "Crimes And Mercies", написанного неким James Bacque.
В предисловии к книге упоминается, что, помимо данного труда, сей Джеймс написал 1 книгу биографическую, 1 историческую, а также 1 "драму" и целых 4 книжки из разряда fiction, сиречь прикладной фантастики.
Иначе говоря, перед нами не историк - а беллетрист - на чем я электронную версию сего труда и захлопнул.

Однако, та же Википедия, помимо дежурного пропагандистского говна, содержит еще и зерна истины.

"On March 20, 1945 President Roosevelt was warned that the JCS 1067 was not workable: it would let the Germans "stew in their own juice". Roosevelt's response was "Let them have soup kitchens! Let their economy sink!" Asked if he wanted the German people to starve, he replied, "Why not?"[49]"

"Throughout all of 1945 the Allies forces of occupation ensured that no international aid reached ethnic Germans.[8] It was directed that all relief should go to non-German displaced persons, liberated Allied POWs, and concentration camp inmates.[9]

General Lucius Clay, then Deputy to General Eisenhower, stated:
“ I feel that the Germans should suffer from hunger and from cold as I believe such suffering is necessary to make them realize the consequences of a war which they caused.[10] ”

The German Red Cross was dissolved, and the International Red Cross and the few other allowed international relief agencies were kept from helping Germans through strict controls on supplies and on travel.[9] The few agencies permitted to help Germans, such as the indigenous Caritasverband, were not allowed to use imported supplies. When the Vatican attempted to transmit food supplies from Chile to German infants the U.S. State Department forbade it.[11]

During 1945 it was estimated that the average German civilian in the U.S. and the United Kingdom occupation zones received 1,200 calories a day.[12] Meanwhile non-German Displaced Persons were receiving 2,300 calories through emergency food imports and Red Cross help.[13] In early October 1945 the UK government privately acknowledged in a cabinet meeting that German civilian adult death rates had risen to four times the pre-war levels and death rates amongst the German children had risen by 10 times the pre-war levels. [12]

General Lucius Clay stated in October 1945 that:
“ undoubtedly a large number of refugees have already died of starvation, exposure and disease…. The death rate in many places has increased several fold, and infant mortality is approaching 65 percent in many places. By the spring of 1946, German observers expect that epidemics and malnutrition will claim 2.5 to 3 million victims between the Oder and Elbe.[12] ”

U.S. occupation forces were under strict orders not to share their food with the German population, and this also applied to their wives when they arrived later in the occupation. The women were under orders not to allow their German maids to get hold of any leftovers; "the food was to be destroyed or made inedible", although in view of the starving German population facing them many housewives chose to disregard these official orders.[14] Nevertheless, according to a U.S. intelligence survey a German university professor reportedly said: "Your soldiers are good-natured, good ambassadors; but they create unnecessary ill will to pour twenty litres of left-over cocoa in the gutter when it is badly needed in our clinics. It makes it hard for me to defend American democracy amongst my countrymen."[15]

In January 1946, 34 U.S. Senators petitioned that private relief organizations be allowed to help in Germany and Austria, stating that the desperate food situation in occupied Germany:
"presents a picture of such frightful horror as to stagger the imagination, evidence which increasingly marks the United States as an accomplice in a terrible crime against humanity."[16]
Criticism of the situation increased, Senator William Langer stated in a speech in the United States Congress:
“ ...among the crimes with which this (Nazi) leadership has been charged (at Nuremberg) is the crime of systematic and mass starvation of racial or political minorities or opponents.... Yet to our utter horror, we discover that our own policies have merely spread those same conditions...I hold in my hands absolutely authentic photographs which have been taken at the beginning of the winter in the city of Berlin. These photographs are interchangeable for horror with the photographs with which we became familiar from Dachau, Mauthausen, Buchenwald, and other extermination camps. These are photographs of children between the ages of 5 and 14...[17]

"Germany was closed to relief shipments until December 1945. The reason given was that they might tend to negate the policy of restricting the German standard of living to the average of the surrounding European nations.[60] CARE package shipments to individuals remained prohibited until 5 June 1946.[60]

In 1945 the German Red Cross, which during the war became thoroughly Nazified, and its head Ernst Grawitz was a major figure in medical experiments on Jews and "enemies of the state",[61] was dissolved,[62][63] and the International Red Cross and other international relief agencies were kept from helping ethnic Germans through strict controls on supplies and on travel.[64] The few agencies permitted to operate within Germany, such as the indigenous Caritasverband, were not allowed to use imported supplies. When the Vatican attempted to transmit food supplies from Chile to German infants[62] the U.S. State Department forbade it.[62]

In early October 1945 the UK government privately acknowledged in a cabinet meeting that, German civilian adult death rates had risen to four times the pre-war levels and death rates amongst the German children had risen by 10 times the pre-war levels.[65] In early 1946 U.S. President Harry S. Truman bowed to pressure from Senators, Congress and public to allow foreign relief organization to enter Germany in order to review the food situation. In mid-1946 non-German relief organizations were permitted to help starving German children.[62] During 1946 the average German adult received less than 1,500 calories a day. 2,000 calories was then considered the minimum an individual can endure on for a limited period of time with reasonable health.[66] At this time food rationing was still strict in the UK and France and there were food shortages right across Europe. Bread rationing was first introduced to the UK in 1946 and potato rationing in 1947; these measures had not been in place during the war and partly reflect the need for food to be sent to the British and French zones of occupation.[67] However later research has revealed that the bread rationing in the UK was not necessary, it was in fact "not primarily for economic reasons – in order to save wheat – but for psychological and political reasons" as a political ploy in order to get US support in reconstruction funds and US wheat. Rationing did not reduce the level of food consumption in the UK.[68] In fact, the UK rationing let the UK "retain its privileged position as the only food importing country which did not suffer a significant reduction in calorie consumption."[68] The Germans in the UK zone were receiving half the UK ration.[68]"


Может кто-нибудь вообще это переработать, перевести на русский и привести в краткий божеский вид, доступный глазу и уму ЖЖиста?
