Flyers Citing '8 Million Germans' as WWII Victims Alongside Jews Distributed at Roger Waters

3. The only problem with that article is that its headline is misleading and...

...does not accurately reflect the content of the flier. The flier does not read (at all) the way in which it is being presented in that article.

What the people handing out the fliers may or may not have said is unknown to me, but the flier seems mainly to have the purpose of illustrating that WWII cost a huge number of lives worldwide and subsequently questions whether or not a victory in the current war as opposed to a diplomatically negotiated end to the current war is worth it.

The word for victim in German is "Opfer". The Jewish people are described as having been "murdered". The other groups that have totals listed are listed simply as being "dead". So, it is very, very clear that there is a difference between the groups. It's important to be completely honest about issues such as this.

Read the flier for yourselves:
