Perhaps this chapter does not really belong in this books but it illustrates a very salient and chilling attitude that the Germans had to the Slavic people during World War 2. To them, the Slavs were untermenshen. This word means sub-human. The particular incident described is the Khaytyn massascre and the story is this.

The German army was advancing Eastwards, don’t forget that the Germans were the invaders, the uninvited instigators of war in this area.It was 1943, perhaps a bit too close to the devastating German defeat at Stalingrad which resulted in the death or capture of the whole German sixth Army. Anthony Beevor says that Stalingrad was the start of the end for the Germans.

Germans hang Slavs during WWII January 1943

A column of Germans was advancing through the woods close to Kaytyn in Belarus. Women were working in the fields and were asked if there were any partisans ahead.The village of Kaytyn composed of scattered wooden houses.Perhaps it should be noted that the partisans gave a ferocious defense against the German army. The women reported that the area was clear of parisans. They lied, there was an ambush ahead.

The German commander of the column was killed, apparently a friend of Hitler, there was mayhem, the Germans suffered many casualties and their column destroyed.

The first response was to maching gun the women.Yes, German soldiers machine gunning unarmed women. Then the real sadism started. The wooden houses were set on fire after ensuring that women and children were trapped inside. Is this the code of honour of Teutonic Knights of old? The women and children were burnt to death. Death by fire in the twentieth centuary and this gives a direct clue as to why death by fire in the Trades Union building in Odessa in the year 2014 was perceived as such a horrifying and emotive act perputrated by invaders from the West. It was genocide of the Slavs starting all over again.

The word ‘genocide’has been used. In a cold and calculating manner, one could ask how many innocent deaths constitute a ‘genocide’?


It seems that the deaths of up to two million Armenians is called the ‘Armenian Genocide’.

As far as the murder of 2.8 million Slavs is concerened, the murders perputrated in the western parts of Russia such as Belarus, one never hears the term ‘Slavic genocide’.

Perhaps the total figure of 27 million Russian deaths in total is enough for the mind to try to cope with.

The sculpture of the man holding his dead son conveys such horror. It is a reminder that he had recovered the charred dead body from a burning wooden house. How can ‘civilised’ nations kill innocent women and children? It is beyond one’s understanding. However, this has become a chilling feature of modern warfare, whether one is considering Hiroshema or the suburbs of Donetsk.

In the Trades Union Building in Odessa in 2014, the trapping of protestors and the subsequent deaths of those trapped inside the building by fire was caused by Ukrainian Nationalists.In the Khatyn massacre, the batallion that was attacked was made up mostly of Ukrainian nationalist collaborators assisted by Waffen SS special batallion.

It might be thought that the Ukrainian collaborators were being used for the dirty and sadistic work. It sounds too much like history repeating itself, fascists from the West invading the peaceful Eastern areas and using their same tactic of fire against women. Brave principled Teutonic knights? Make up your own mind but at least understand why there is such deadly and effective resistance against them.

  1. Mr Allen not only repeats old communist and jewish lying propaganda that the Germans perpetrated the Katyn massacre (the Russians have even admitted that Stalin had ordered it), but he is in great need of a proofreader since his English is atrocious, even worse than that of Eric G. from TradCatKnight.
