Massacre at Biscari: Patton and an American War Crime
James J. Weingartner
The Historian
Vol. 52, No. 1 (NOVEMBER 1989), pp. 24-39
Any sanctions?
so patton was a war criminal just like all the nazi,s that were hanged , bet he didn't hang.
Did you know that the Arabs praise Hitler as their God and Savior also the man who knows how to deal with the Jewish?
This so random
So…what??
Patton: Show no mercy
The soldiers: ok
Patton: Wait that's illegal
Patton: I order you to do a warcrime
Soldiers: does warcrime
Patton: Not my fault
oh well
idk why ppl only blaming patton it was also the soilders who willingly killed
Ooo that's a cuss word
Allied Strategic Bombing Command always gets a free pass. I guess since they were innocent civilians in the hundreds of thousands it doesn't technically count as a war crime.
American warcrimes huh I thought that didn’t exist I guess I’m to blocked by western media 🤷♂️
In this episode of “Historical Bruh Moments”…
You do know that i do not hate American and Serbian women and girls, right? You do know that many Muslim girls were raped in the most brutal ways in Bosnia and Iraq,right? All this must be investigated,look deep into all this, American military and the government has done so much evil and i wish my brothers would do some of the Serbian,American girls,since the AMERICAN government ruined my LIFE!!!! ONE OF THE CRIMES IS AGAINST ME ALSO,thanks to the fbi and cia. I want justice for me and other VICTIMS.
Many ss we're honorable soldierse and Many we're foreign but every captured German was dead man and they didnt even make No diference in Wehrmacht and SS
And there is more then warcrimes to Talk about commited by the allied
Really interesting
Am I the only one who does not like Patton?
How do you know all the history
Let's Go Patton lul
Typical of US soldiers
didnt happen
and i finally know why many people hate America now. they are cold blooded.
the Americans again commited a war crime by invading Iraq and massacring the civilians there and torturing the pows.
Wow didn't the soviets also commit war crimes?
My man boutta disappear.
Those guys got off rather lightly… man, they should have gotten death by hanging. Or life imprisonment.
Another interesting fact is that Patton thought making his soldiers "killers" who wouldn't take prisoners would make the enemy fight less. It's actually the opposite, as enemies are going to fight much harder if they think they are going to be tortured or killed upon surrendering.
War is an Extremely Highly Profitable Business
Me when i see slenders in roblox
Will Vladimir Putin be tried for war crimes?
This shows that even the Allied Force also committed crimes,not only the Nazis.
These same soldiers came home and terrorized black Americans
At times the allies commited far worse crimes than the germans ever did. A couple of examples include Vinnitsia and Katyn.
