Intent to Kill

Laid out in considerable detail, this post explores what happened to the deceased Gaza activists.  This is an excellent example of a basic premise: if you want captives, send police; if you want corpses, send soldiers.  Their training is different, and you get what you pay for.

I do not consider Israel a civilized nation.  (I wish it would have been, but sheesh and baksheesh, Germany  is accruing beans faster on the civilized side of the scale.)  I sincerely wish that America would stop sending money there.  It is funding atrocities.  This costs America a lot of civilized beans.

That's certainly a possibility. However, I believe the allied partitioning and American led de-nazification of Germany post WWII probably had a more direct impact on German citizenry than the experiences of its soldiers as POWs of America.

Additionally, while I certainly concede that the Western World in general is highly influenced by American politics, the German social system of today is of course far more comparable to those of other Western European countries and not America's.

Hey, it's really close and I want to win,
so I'm asking people who've barely even heard of me to vote for my entry-
"We had all been born Polish, but some of us were more Polish than others."
