I Understand the revision to 52.9 Million people is tragic, but this is all a major digression: This lecture topic is about the Third Reich. (Note: The ENTIRE POPULATION of Indonesia in 1956-58 could not have been much more than 53.1 million.) The Death of some 210,000 people is something that we tried to stop as much as we could.

The idea of the amount of people killed would be similar to the Khmer Rogue of Cambodia which killed a similar proportion of the populace from 1975-1978.

Also the Red Army factions were also responsible for the bombing of the 1980 Berlin Olympics which killed 6 members of the U.S. Olympic team. Both are acts that this UDS member has neither acknowledged or admitted to...
