We have covered up so much.

It was the Nazis wot dun it tho, in occupied Channel Islands.

We didn't have the capability to retake them until Germany was defeated.

How is this a shocking indictment of Britain, and not instead, a shocking indictment of Nazi Germany?

carving up the middle east, carving up Africa and carving up the former Yugoslavia.
food for thought

Jewish and Russian prisoners were starved, beaten and shot on Alderney after Churchill abandoned the island to the Germans. Britain investigated the crimes after the war — and then covered them up

now the question is, did Churchill really abandon them, i always thought it was decided that we were unable to defend the islands and they really didnt offer alot of advantage to the Germans so were not worth trying to defend

A cover up and the abandonment of the Islands.

Also Britain created Concentration Camps during the Boer Wars.

Interesting fact that I wasn’t aware of;

The Allies failed to recapture Dunkirk during WW2. The German commandant only surrendered 2 days after the rest of Germany had given up after a long siege by Allied forces
