My point exactly. Why the double standard? Russkies get away with real murder, torture, cruelty etc yet the Germans do the honourable thing. When will the world see the Slavic duplicity? Hoodwinked Churchill and FDR, that is for sure.

A slight correction: It's communist, not Slavic, duplicity that's at the heart of the matter here. Unfortunately, we see some of that among Estonians, as well, among former commies like Savisaar and Lauristin.
The current generation of Germans are symbolically making partial amends for the iniquity of their Nazi forefathers. Good for them.
I'd like to see some of the same among the current generation of Estonians, but; no such luck, so far.
Savisaar wrote a fat book about the last days of Soviet Estonia where he "forgot to mention" that he was the last commie big shot.
Similarly, Lauristin wrote a fat book, full of lies, explaining that her parents and step-father were innocent idealists to be admired.
The current generation of Estonians repeatedly elect these liars and opportunists to political office. ..... Shame on them!
Perhaps, the next generation of Estonians will finally be free of residual commie brainwashing.
Pray for Estonia!

Thank you for the correction, one does tend to get worked up and mislabel. Slavs are generally for the main part good people just as Estonians are, the bad apples ruin perceptions, and generalizations result. The so-called June Communists in Estonia were hard to accept for the majority, as were the koputajad. Why were there so many in Saaremaa? One of our fiercest bastions of nationalism? Envy? Estonians are good at that.

Mea culpa. Communists though on their own is also a dangerous label, as the most bloodthirsty ones in Europe belonged to a grouping that one is not allowed to attack at all, but it is historical truth....
