Lithuania has their own Bandera

    Lithuania is like many other countries that spent 50 years under Soviet occupation. During this time, there was a deep freeze on the truth: Lithuanians were only allowed to talk about how many Soviet citizens were killed during World War II. References to Jewish victims were scrubbed away by the occupiers. I would like to think that if Lithuania had been a free and independent nation after World War II, it might have acknowledged its own role in the Holocaust

      yes I'm sure the nazi collaborators would have taken a less anti-semitic line than the people who liberated Auschwitz

      It's as if considering Jews to be their own nationality apart from their German/Polish/Soviet citizenship might be a little... antisemitic?
