ironically invented by a jewish scientist he also helped with mustard gas development..
Like all morally corrupt war mongers, they deserve nothing but contempt and pity for the black stain they left on humanity.
The unfortunate and unavoidable facts are, they weren't the first and they won't be the last (Its actually happening all around us)

You shouldn't give the sheep toys to play with, you will only encourage them!
was ridiculous trying to throw the fucker back over the fence
the russians learned very quickly after barbarossaAs they were supplied with the best equipment by Himmler they were a very good fighting force. Elite Army Divisions such as Gross Deutschland were equal if not better as they had the same level of equipment.
Size for size Waffen SS and German Army units were superior in training and tactics than the Allied forces and also experience as they developed their tactics during the war. Russian Guard Divisions probably matched them after 42 but thats debatable as Russian Generals mainly went for sledgehammer tactics.
Some people are mixing up Waffen and Allgemeine SS. The Camps and internal security were made up of the latter, the former were the fighting arm (though some did both) of the SS.
A big percentage of the SS were made up of foreigners due to the restrictions on recruiting Germans by the Army. Also a lot of the troops were conscripts after restrictions were lifted.
At the end it was mainly Foreign SS units that defended Berlin.
Brutal and effective very well trained.

stalin wasnt mad, he was a thug, a mafioso thug i'm not sure if stalin believed in anything
lots of mafia bosses dont live like kings btw
Both.
You can witness the handiwork of Waffen SS division 'Das Reich' at Oradour in France and it is an abomination.
Two thirds of the waffen SS were non-Aryan. I don't believe they bought into Nazi racial theory at all. Just a bunch of dehumanised bullies given carte blanche to ignore the rules of decency.
yeah at the end they were. once they realized they were on a sticky wicket ('43, Kursk IMO) they had to find replacements from anywhere they could... Cossacks, Balkan Muslims, Baltic states etc all came to fight. the one thing they all had in common: hatred of communism. Himmler's SS ideal went out the window here...
Its more complex than whats on that page.
The Dirlewanger Brigade were never part of the Waffen SS structure though they came under the heading of Waffen SS. They were mainly an independent anti partisan security unit. They may have ended up fighting but then all units did at some point when things collapsed.
The same as Leibstandarte were independent, though part of the Waffen SS. They were Hitlers Bodyguard separate but part of the SS. Its way more complicated than whats on WIKI pages.
Ethnic Germans from conquered countries were allowed in from 1940. 14 out of 65 men tried for the Oradour massacre (and given amnesty due to protestations of their people) were from Alsace.
As an aside, SS stands for Schutzstaffel which equates roughly to Defence League in English.
All Waffen SS were engaged in a mixture of anti-partisan activity and frontline operation. The Dirlewanger Brigade were employed almost exclusively on anti-partisan because they were poor frontline soldiers and took a hammering when they faced the red army.
What explanation would you give for the following atrocities:
Marzabotto
St Anna di Stazema
Tulle + Oradour
No Dirlewanger brigade involved
does it barlz.
Schutz = to guard / protect
Staffel = collective noun for a squadron
