Welcome and apologies to nazlie75
I made a bit of an error moving a thread and I unfortunately deleted nazlie75's introduction posts. I managed to go back in my browser cache and get the original posts, but I cannot re-post the message as another user so I've quoted the posts below

Re: Welcome and apologies to nazlie75
Oh , that's why I couldn't post there, I was starting to think gremlins had taken over, but I must have been answering the post wich had already been deleted.
Welcome to the forum nazlie75 and remember not all Germans were Nazis, nor were all Nazis German. As to the technology they were advanced in some domains, not so much in others, for example radars. I hope we"ll share some posts together.

Re: Welcome and apologies to nazlie75
Why aren't you interested in what happened in your own country?
ie... Battle of Malaya - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Malayan Campaign
There seem to be so many people that appear worship the Germans in WW2.
Tigers tanks are kewl, I luv the SS etc etc etc

Re: Welcome and apologies to nazlie75
As long as Nazlie75 does not praise the Nazis and respects the rules of the forum that's fine. Being from the other side of the planet makes Germany for him as exotic as Hongkong or Japan for Europeans or Americans.

Re: Welcome and apologies to nazlie75
Because apology of the Nazi regime infringes the forum rules regarding hate speech and racism . But do I really need to specify this? I thought it was obvious.

Re: Welcome and apologies to nazlie75
Let's not be hasty here. I think we'd all agree that promoting nazi political beliefs is wrong, but there are aspects of their military that many people find fascinating.
One thing I like about this Forum is that many people join up with a somewhat limited perspective on the war, and over time realize that there is a world beyond tiger tanks and the waffen SS. And this happens without brow beating anyone, rather it happens with exposure to solid info and solid sources. This I hope, is where this thread will ultimately lead.

Re: Welcome and apologies to nazlie75
When I was younger I had the adoration that some here show for all things Nazi. SS uniforms are cool!!! Tiger tanks are awesome and invincible!!!! ECT,ECT.Then when I studied more and learned more about what the Nazi party and regime were responsible for then my attitude changed drastically. Reality kicked in and I am now more prone to look at things very differently. And I realized that there were other peoples and countries involed in the war also. Not just Europe.

Re: Welcome and apologies to nazlie75
Hey Nazlie75, and welcome.
You will sure learn here that there are mayn aspects of ww2 beyond those, I surely did, and you will also find that there are other parts of ww2 that are just as fasinating and interesting.

FYI, i not worship Nazi's Party, but more into to their machine and the technology that they have at that time..It's all about knowledge,information and the truth..not more than that..yup,maybe Hitler did some bloody genocide, and of course I 100% against it..don't judge the person who's into this Nazi's things and consider him as an evil like Hitler..and surely not all the Muslim are terrorist either..
Thank u...
p/s- the way to wrote it seem that you know everything about this war..what are u from straight A student in History subject in your high school or u jst the same as me,gettin info via the internet???
