Neither of those were vanity publsihed. To be honest having studied some areas of Nazism my self, I guess you could divide most people of the time into the heroic, the disinterested, and the true believers.
The true believers may have killed more and more savagely (the Estonians, and the Lithuanians leap out as examples of this). But for me they are to be pitied, and educated. Personally if Hitler had survived the war, I wouldn't have backed his execution, he never felt he did anything wrong.
The disinterested, those who didn't challenge, and allowed things to happen. To me they are truly contemptible, to not oppose evil you don't understand is one thing. To not oppose it because it might be risky for you personally, thats really evil. It's not like in Jersey any one resigned, or wrote a letter of protest.
The fact that 20 years after the war, the authorities were faced gain with evil under their noses and did nothing, sorry it's a fair point. I've worked in social services, and this kind of abuse, creates ripples. ripples you can choose to avoid.
