    Hey everybody, this is satire.

    It’s good satire–and I think it says more about Western MSM than any of ya’all for thinking it isn’t–but this is satire.

    The author is “some guy,” which is a dead giveaway for a major news network, but the “Rehabilitating Minor German War Criminals” is a slightly more subtle tongue-in-cheek rib at all the typical NGOs that spout this news and simultaneously do just that (rehabilitate Nazis).

    " “There is no way they could be there by choice” " also makes fun of Westoid stupidty, but Western propagandists, while stupid lazy self-unaware smug liars, are not (normally) this stupid and lazy.

    I do not seek to embarass anyone, I thought it was a real headline when I glanced at it too, again this just shows how low the bar has really been set in reality.

      Ok, I was going to say that it looks like an Onion article, but seems it actually is intended to be something in that direction.
