Forums - Politics Discussion - Dutch national railroad is going to compensate the people deported to concentration camps

15.000 for one deported and 7.500 for kids whose parents got deported.

How do you feel about this?

Are you referencing an article or something or just making random speculation, a "what if" scenario? If it's the former, I'd appreciate a link.

Whose national railroad?



When I first read the headline I thought this was going to be about the situation on the southern US border with all the left wing Democrats and media figures constantly comparing the makeshift housing centers for illegal immigrants to actual concentration camps. This must be the first time in history where people are voluntarily traveling hundreds if not thousands of miles just to get into said concentration camps lol.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

You should remove immediately this topic or I think that some people will discover today, that there are much more WWII revisionist in this world than what they imagine...You don't want hate and agressivity here in VGC...That's not what we want. You should close this topic and we don't talk about it.
Plus in the majority of countries for users here (nearly every country actually), there are laws which makes illegal to talk about this. Once again you should just close it.



Seems a bit late if you ask me, almost to the point where the gesture is pretty much meaningless. Everyone whose parents or themselves where deported in WW2 is either 74 years old and most likely older.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

So because other people might not enjoy this news it should be removed? That sounds a bit like the 40's to me.

OT: a bit late for the 'NS' to be doing this. Buying of some guilt-trip after 70+ years and wrapping it carefully in the name of the railways so no one else gets blamed. I just consider this part of the hypocrisie the Dutch government -and people, still portray to this day. The winner writes the history books right.



It’s nice for those that get some extra money, but it’s really not that useful anymore. Besides, the railways aren’t really to blame for anything. It’s not like they could say to Hitler “No, move your own prisoners”.
