http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3529123/German-tourist-town-Tegernsee-strips-Adolf-Hitler-honorary-citizenship-83-years.html how many people even knew or cared? sounds like typical politcal waste of time ok, I will whip myself 1000 times for the next title error
Well things take time in politics, decisions cannot be rushed. But not Adolf week, Austrian Government now looking to decide what to do about the house where he was born to stop it becoming a place of pilgrimage. Maybe expect a decision in another 75 years.
I was just reading an article regarding that topic. As much as I agree with the fact that they should remove it from existence, any Neo culture will journey to other more sinister locations to ideolize their moron.
good call KJ...they still have Goebel's retreat house still up....one of the members posted a video......I thought it would've been torn down......
Remember a number of years ago we did a holocaust tour which took in the memorial in Berlin and Hitler's bunker among much more over nearly 2 weeks of travel and there was mention then of discussions on what should be done with the bunker. But as mentioned above these knuckleheads will gather anywhere so short of obliterating history (or them) this will always be with us.
History is history. The good and the bad. Should we tear down the colosseum because people were killed there for sport? No. If destroying historical landmarks because they have negative connotations is acceptable, don't begrudge the Taliban or ISIS for doing the same. From their perspective it's same/same.
Let's face it, the sort of 21st century skinhead morons who think of themselves as neonazis would worship the empty lot after the house was pulled down so why waste the time and effort and bad publicity for closing the barn door 70 years too late?
another good call......also, people will worship a lot of different, crazy things.....if they hadn't destroyed the fuhrerbunker, that would've been one of my number 1 places to visit.....
