[edit] "This great evil"

Lines like "cruelly and unjustly" and the above heading don't really belong here.... While it's obvious that this policy was bad news, our duty is to recount, not to preach; let us assume our viewers have the strength of mind to decide what was "evil" on their own, without us telling them. If you feel that the modern German (and elsewhere contemporaneous) evaluation of the deeds described isn't obvious, you can summarize it in a new section of the article.

[edit] Cleanup

This artcle, while good, seems like it could use some rephrasing and cleanup. I'm not posting it on cleanup because that's too big already, but if you happen by here, here are some suggestions on improvements.

  • "The Geneva Convention was not of the Third Reich," - rephrase
  • "which resulted in the disappearance of many political activists." - passive voice; unless we don't know any more than this, it would be good to state what happened
  • "or the far larger group" -rephrase
  • Capitialization issues...

Too bad you didn't post it there. The article is chaotic and does not give a clear picture what it actually was. In particlur, it puts political activits and Soviet POW into one basket, which is totally incorrect.

Also, it is full of speculations. Huge cleanup us due. Mikkalai 00:50, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)

The Third Reich was very much party to the Geneva Conventions, to state otherwise is flatout wrong. The Soviet Union btw was not, and this fact was used as legal justification for the very different treatment of western and soviet POWs by Germany, despite the declared willingness by the SU to adhere to the spirit of the conventions. 85.178.114.48 12:44, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
