An Eye for an Eye

Summary: It makes the world aware that no ethnic group is lily white
Review: A professor at Harvard said that "every" German was responsible for the Nazi atrocities. After reading this book I ask him is every Jew responsible for the atrocities they committed on innocent German civilians?

Rating:
Summary: Nice try
Review: A sneaky attempt to whitewash history. When Germans commit atrocities against Jews, they're the epitomy of evil; when Jews commit atrocities against Germans, it's an "eye for an eye". The message: Jews can do no harm.

Summary: Shocking truth about communist war criminals in our midst.
Review: A telling account of the men and women who worked for the Office of State Security during and just after the Second World War and who were responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity, directed primarily against innocent Poles, Germans and Ukrainians. Many of these killers subsequently escaped to the USA, Canada, Israel and western Europe, and they remain in our midst, unpunished for their evil. Just recently one of the most infamous of their number, Shlomo Morel, a communist concentration camp Commandant, was discovered in Israel, but that state won't extradite him to stand trial in Poland for his crimes, rationalizing this by saying that the statute of limitations has expired! Just as no democracy should ever harbour Nazi war criminals in its midst, so too we must root out and punish those guilty of war crimes committed under Soviet tutelage. To refuse to do so, or to turn a blind eye on these mass murderers' deeds, would be to utterly invalidate any pretence of justice. This book belongs in the library of everyone interested in bringing all war criminals to justice, regardless of who their victims were, or who they are. A book that must be reprinted!

Summary: Intriguing reading
Review: An interesting book, and I would follow it up with a read of "Death by Government" by R.J. Rummel.

Summary: The whole truth
Review: Anyone who hasn't read about the aftermath of World War II in Europe can't claim to know the whole story of the war and its horrors. The words "never forget" are meaningless if what we chose to remember is only a partial truth. One critical reviewer of the book stated that we shouldn't forget who started the war. His comment seems to indicate that all Germans shared responsibility for the horrors of the war simply because they spoke the language of the henchmen. Apparently, not even the children who died in the Polish camps were innocent in that reviewer's eyes. If anyone can be held responsible for high crimes by simply sharing blood lines with the perpetrators, than we're all guilty.

Summary: Forgotten, Forbidden and Covered Up
Review: Anyone who likes to repeat the words "We Shall never Forget" with self righteous vengence, who demands endless reparations and "justice", should do themselves the favor of reading this book. Anyone who wants to understand human nature needs to read this book. John Sack has taken the favorite vehicle of the self righteous, shattered it and exposed the awful beastiality of the real Holocaust; World War II. This book makes it on my shelf entitled "forbidden history" There are almost 100 pages of additional notes, sources and acknowledgements.

Summary: he dared to speak out
Review: congratulations to John Sack for speaking out the truth,sad, but true. I lived in Europe right after the war after the Nazis' defeat by the allies and people around heard about the atrocities perpetuated by Jews against the Germans, thanks to the Allies.

Summary: Exciting
Review: Congratulations to John Sack. I have read this book borrowed from someone and I have to have it myself. Is there any way the publisher will publish it again? I want to leave this exciting reading to my children and I also know about scores of my Polish compatriotes as well as Germans and Czechs in Australia, who are truth hangry and who would buy this book immediately if available. As a Pole of origin I am glad, that someone from the Jewish community took up the challenge, since the tragedy of many Polish officers and soldiers from the Home Underground Army was, that they have fought Germans during the war (having among other goals to protect also Jews), yet after the war they found themselves in the same prisons run by Jews as German criminals. I suppose Mr John Sack suffered much himself first facing the truth, secondly probably he was isolated from his Jewish friends and singled out as a black sheep. Whatever happened, Mr John Sack, our warmest feelings are with you.

Summary: So why were Germans punished after WW2?
Review: Great book...what I want to know is why can't the facist-loser whiners writing reviews on this site realize that anti-German atrocities were a direct result of GERMAN-PERPETRATED ATROCITIES? Do they think this happened in some kind of vacuum?Place responsibility where responsibility lies. One caused the other. Also, German atrocities were perpetrated by Germans wearing the uniform of Germany, these Jews who worked the Soviets weren't representing the Jewish people...they were only representing their individual grudges (i.e. seeing their whole family murdered). The Commies knew to use individual Jews because they knew Holocaust survivors would make great anti-Germans--duh!

Summary: A Horrifying Historical Account
Review: Horrifying account of atrocities committed against German civilians by Jews in the aftermath of World War II. Long-suppressed story -- by a fearless Jewish author and noted journalist -- of how Jews of the Polish Communist "Office of State Security" killed and brutally mistreated many tens of thousands of German men, women and children in concentration camps and prisons in conquered German territories. This story was featured on a "60 Minutes" broadcast segment. Antony Polonsky, Prof. of E. European Jewish History at Brandeis University, comments on An Eye for An Eye: "... Extremely gripping and compelling account of the appalling events which accompanied the end of the war and the expulsion of the Germans ... impossible to put down ... a major contribution to our understanding
