I'm inhabitant of a country Germans tried to anihilate in 1939. Germany of 1939 is usually called Nazi Germany here, still- it's Germany. Same as Soviet Russia who attacked 17 days later- it was Russia, not some misterious nation called Soviets. These are language cover-ups. I do acknowledge there had been many Germans who chose death rather than to join their countrymen in horrible crimes, and I admire those who did not join. Unfortunately orders of magnitude more volunteered and were actively taking part in German death machinery.
