    “You know, Germany, look, they put themselves into a position in Adolf Hitler’s chiefly responsible for this, but his whole regime is responsible for it, that when they went into the east in 1941, they launched a war where they were completely unprepared to deal with the millions and millions of prisoners of war, of local political prisoners, and so forth that they were going to have to handle,” Holocaust,”  asserted Cooper. “They went in with no plan for that and they just threw these people into camps. And millions of people ended up dead there.”

    They just ended up dead at the local campground. It’s really sad guys. Germany was as shocked as you. It’s mostly Adolf’s fault… Germany was really overwhelmed with the campground-filling war; ignoring her horrified friends while she shoves a few annoying space-taking Jews in the special Happy Happy joy time shower.

        Damn that sucks! Too bad they couldn’t just release them into the wild. But they probably would try and live in our society again. Very tough. Tough call. /s

      Coming soon is the defense that is all Russia is doing in Ukraine.

      The poor Russians just weren’t equipped to deal with the consequences of a war they started, just like poor Germany. /s
