and to those who in their hearts still call it their own,
this publication is humbly dedicated.
Table of Contents
After the war ended in 1945, one of the most gruesome genocides took place that the history of
mankind has ever seen: the expulsion and destruction of the Sudeten Germans. The
German government has kept knowledge of this Holocaust and the huge files of documentary
evidence a secret, in other words, this
chapter of history is supposed to remain tucked away in the hindmost corners of the Federal
German archives, there to gather dust and be forgotten. Its publication is not
desired.
The poor souls who were tortured to a gruesome death can no longer tell their story - but the
survivors can. Driven into a truncated Germany of rubble and ruins, where the people had
enough
to do to get their own lives back under control, the Sudeten Germans soon gave up trying to tell
of
their suffering; they buried the knowledge deep within themselves - but nevertheless their story
has not been lost, as it was summarized (at least in part) in a book titled Dokumente zur
Austreibung der
Sudetendeutschen - Documents on the Expulsion of the Sudeten Germans -
and it is our moral duty to those who were tormented to death, to tell the world about this death
march of a people - now that the Internet has made such a publication possible.
Hushing-up these events has resulted in the fact that many members of even their own ethnic
group do not know the truth about the expulsion, much less the younger generation of the nation
that expelled them. On the contrary, misinformation from sources with vested interests has left
the younger Czech generations with the mistaken belief that they were made to suffer injustices
and thus have a claim to
restitution. They feel that the Benes Decrees and the expulsion were warranted. It's hard so see,
however, how this can be justified in light of Czechoslovakia's admission to the European
Union.
The German government, instead of backing its own people, is on the side of the perpetrators'
nation and supports its demands. In times of economic hardship even the expellees themselves
send "care parcels" to those people whose parents and grandparents robbed them of their home
and all they had. Just one case in point is the extensive aid that was sent when the "flood of the
century" wrought havoc in parts of Czechoslovakia because the expellers had neglected
maintenance on the Oder River. The expellees have ever dispensed with revenge and are
satisfied
if they can just pay the occasional visit to their old homeland and the present "owners" of what
had been their and their forefathers' own possessions.
An ethnic group that has been psychologically browbeaten into cultural illness for half a century
is beginning to beg the murderers of its ethnic siblings for forgiveness. For what, may we ask?
Perhaps for the things you will read about here? Think about it.
Everyone has a right to one's homeland, and every people has the right to honor its dead - except
for the Sudeten Germans, who evidently have neither.
