I shake my head! The Dolchstoßlegende, born after the lost First World War, claimed that it was the home front and socialist Jews who had not supported the German fighting men in those trenches in Flanders. They virtually stabbed them in their backs. It was one of those brainwashings of the people by the right-wingers and later by the Nazis.
However, in the Civil War, the conspiracy theory accused the Southern generals of being traitors.
Whether in the South it was not all bad before the Confederate States were forced back into the Union, I cannot judge, but all was bad as far as the Nazi regime is concerned! The Nazis started with total domination of the people, changed to total war, and ended in total defeat.
Germans remember it well! Philipp Scheidemann, who had proclaimed the German Republic dagger in his hand with Matthias Erzberger, a catholic Jew of the Center Party, watching. In the background, wealthy Jews sit on their gold and count their paper money. |
Here is a lesson: Be careful when comparing historical processes and events!
