| I see the point of this, but I have to say that it doesn't really prove anything in the end. I am more opposed to radical Islam than most, but this just seems like more misunderstanding of the Waffen SS.....again. The SS was not strictly a unit for killing innocents or whatever, but the an elite force in itself.
Yes, Himmler used the traditional Muslim/Jewish rivalry to keep Slavic Muslims loyal to Nazi ideals.....but that kind of usury should go without saying. Himmler himself thought very little of these men, and refused to even acknowledge their Slavic heritage, claiming that they descended from the Huns.
Even with the obvious comparison between Nazism and radical Islam, this recruitment was to supplement the ranks however possible. |
