Hagen Koch is as guilty as a death camp guard. He was a willing kog in the machinery of death, and is proud of it. Germany's failure to execute the death merchants who were necessary for the survival of the communist regime in the east is the sin that has brought the muslim invasion on them. Weakness in dealing with one group of murderers has made them a soft target for another group of murderers. One cannot justify their failure to carry out justice with nonsense like "reconciliation".

Tbh I think it's a miracle that after over 55 years of dictated rule from the Nazis and Moscow that the East Germans didn't just kill themselves in their millions. Not that I'm excusing their actions and I believe in the position that Nazi Germany was a police state run by the fear and prejudices of its people. But for such a people, sheltered from free press for half a lifetime, this must've took a psychological toll on the people involved. Such tragedies should never be repeated again.

nbc made the movie escape from east berlin (1962),a movie watched by appx 35 million viewers when it came out in 1962...

If that is what it was, then LONG LIVE IMPERIALIST SABOTAGE. Would you fight to defend the right of the DDR to shoot people trying to escape? If so, then you should be ashamed of yourself.

'NBC Tv financed the tunnels' - says it all. Imperialist sabotage of another state's border, that's what that was.

Those border guards are criminals in my eyes. Noone was forced to serve in the border guards and they knew that the escapees where innnocent.
