By Ariel Zilber, Haaretz Correspondent: Israeli YouTube Hitler parody infuriates Holocaust survivors
Talkback
Title:Hitler in TA
Name:christoph
City: State: germany/france
When "der Untergang" was on, I kind of boycotted the film. So, this is the longest scene I watched of it by now. It`s a bit confusing to read the undertitles because german is my mother tongue.
By the way, here in the Parisian region there`s a bit the same problem. Sometimes I`m faster if I walk half an hour on a way for which the bus theoretically requires 9 minutes. Actually, in a moment of anger, I told my colleagues: "One morning, I will strangle a car driver." So, it might be better if I never go to Tel Aviv. If holocaust survivors hardly have understanding for Israeli youth who produce such parodies, I as a German certainly couldn`t ask for lenience.
Nonetheless, in the present parody, the treatment of prisoners doesn`t play a role. But it seems that there once was a Hebrew series of cheap romans called "Stalag" in which war prisoners were treated by female German wardens: sexual assaults included.
