Germany after WWII

Reader comment on item: War as Social Work?

Submitted by G.C. Colan, Esq. (United States), May 6, 2003 at 10:56

Dear Mr. Pipes:
You just skimmed over what occurred in our occupation of Germany after WW II.
The Germans did not get on their feet until 1949-50. Until then, thousands of Germans died every winter. But look at the political and social miracle that we accomplished there. It took several years, but we did it!
