The largest ethnic cleansing in history
The largest known example of ethnic cleansing in history.
In
December 1944 Winston Churchill announced to a startled
House of Commons that the
Allies had decided to carry out the largest forced population transfer -- or what is nowadays referred to as "ethnic cleansing" -- in human history. A crime so great, so cruel, and so heinous, that none in the entire span of human history can equal it. The gates of hell were opened up. It is the ghastly truth of the orchestrated plundering, mass rape, mass murder, and subjugation of the
German people in the latter days and aftermath of
World War Two, which continues to this day. Estimated 14+ million ethnic
Germans murdered and expelled after the war.
Around 5-10+ million
German women mass raped. The largest "ethnic cleansing" in history: The post-WWII expussion of 14 million ethinic Germans from their ancestral lands in
Eastern Europe; At least 2 million killed. As a result of the
Second World War, an estimated 14 million ethnic Germans were stripped of their citizenship and land and property, and expelled from their ancestral lands in Eastern Europe, mostly lands formerly part of
Germany which were stolen from Germany at the
Versailles treaty following
World War One. 14 million Germans were expelled from their homes in
Poland, the
Czech Republic,
Hungary and other
Eastern European countries after the war. Only 12 million were able to get to Germany alive. The tragedy of the expulsion of the
German civilian population is hardly widely known except amongst Germans and historians. Seven to eight million Germans were expelled from parts of Poland that were actually German land ceded to Poland following
WW1. Three million were expelled from portions of
Czechoslovakia, primarily the
Sudetenland. Some two million ethnic Germans living inside the
Soviet Union were expelled, many to
Siberian gulags. Around half a million from Hungary,
300,
000 from
Romania, and smaller numbers from
Yugoslavia and other areas are also expelled. It is estimated that at least 2 million of those Germans were murdered or otherwise died as a result of these expulsions, with some estimates running as high as 6 million killed. In many cases
Ethnic Germans being forcibly expelled were ordered on to trains, some packed with 80 people crammed into each cattle car without adequate (or, occasionally, any) food, water or heating, to be shipped to occupied Germany. After the
Soviet Army moves out of Czechoslovakia, the
Czech Army and civilians begin the mass murder and expulsion of the 3 million ethnic Germans living mostly in northern and western Czechoslovakia. This was sanctioned by the
Czech President and government, who openly called for the "liquidation" of the
German population from Czechoslovakia. Thousands of Germans attempting to flee to the German border were dragged from trains and convoys and shot by the side of the road, and buried in mass graves. The expulsion of Germans from Eastern Europe was accompanied by large-scale organized violence, including the confiscation of property, placement in concentration camps and deportation - despite the fact that in
August 1945, the Statute of the
International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg declared deportation of peoples crime against humanity. The largest scale expulsion of the Germans occurred in
Poland. By the end of the war millions Germans were expelled from the territory of this country . They were mostly concentrated in German territory granted to Poland in
1945: in
Silesia (1.6 million people),
Pomerania (1.8 million) and
East Brandenburg (600 thousand), as well as in areas densely populated historically by
Germans in Poland (about 400 thousand). Also, more than two million Germans living in
East Prussia, came under
Soviet control. In his comprehensive and dispassionate work Deutscher
Exodus (Seewald Verlag),
Gerhard Ziemer writes: "According to a very painstaking calculation of the
Federal Statistical Office in Wiesbaden, the German civilian population lost 2,280,000 members to flight, expulsion and deportation. These people were shot or beaten to death or died of hunger and exhaustion in the labor camps of the deportation process in the
East." Ziemer states: "The number of victims of the expulsion never impacted on public awareness in the East or
West. Even in Germany only a small minority is aware of it. It has not become a topic for journalism and the mass media like the victims of
Fascism and the persecution of the
Jews have." The statistics and documentation of these monstrosities have remained unknown.
Official German authorities do not mention or publicize them. Was it right to speak of "liberation" and then to eradicate entire population groups? To expel 15 million people from their homes?
