Re: Downed allied pilot in Iszkaszentgyörgy Hungary in 1944

"Momentary loss of humanity and self-control"... To me it is still a war crime. Anybody could use it as a cheap excuse. Do not try to wash it clean or make it look less barbar than any other murder in history. A crime is a crime regardless of the side or who won the war and who lost it. The nazi war propaganda did not allow the general public to know all of the real details of what was going on in the camps. Those rural civilians did not speak English at all. The word 'Jew' sounds completely different in Hungarian. So I am not sure what Lt. Crawford was really hearing from them... Just relax and think again.
