About
According to Conservative Boston radio talk show host, Michael Graham, I'm what's known as a EuroWeenie.
That's what he calls anyone from Europe who doesn't touch the forelock in deference to the almighty U S of A.
So, I guess I'm a EuroWeenie then, and proud of it.

While there were many murders of Jews committed by the SS Einsatzgruppen during the early part of the war, these were carried out without official sanction. It wasn't until early 1941 that this group was given an official directive to carry out these mass murders and it wasn't until the Summer of 1941 that Auschwitz was given its true function. Even then, no official directive was given for the extermination of the Jews until Jan 20, 1942 at the Wannsee Conference which was called to coordinate the "Final Solution."
Nicely put...
Actually, the systematic annihilation of the Jews did not begin until later in the war.
