About the book: 2009 / A. Ermakov’s previous book “Squires of the Nation,” which revised many established ideas about the history of the Third Reich, was put on trial on the delusional charge of “ extremism" and "propaganda of fascism", but was completely justified. His new research touches on an even more “dangerous” topic, in which any independent opinion, any deviation from the “general line” is punished more harshly than “anti-Soviet propaganda” in the USSR - the history of the Holocaust. The author analyzes the common myth about the Wehrmacht’s innocence in the crimes of the Nazis regime, created during the Cold War, when the “democratic West” actively used former Nazis in the fight against the USSR and therefore was ready to turn a blind eye to their unsightly past, and irrefutably proves that the armed forces of the Third Reich consciously and actively participated in repressive policies Nazis in the occupied territories and the genocide of “inferior races”».
