Entry: Stauffenberg, Sobieski, and Lepanto Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/stauffenberg_sobieski_and_lepanto#2109 Post contents: Not everybody sees Stauffenberg as a hero and growing up in postwar Germany I knew quite a few Germans, actually the majority of his generation, who saw him as a traitor to the German people. On top of that, if he saw the dire need to liberate his countrymen against their will from the tyrant, why didn't he stay with the bomb, to ensure that Hitler would die in the blast? In contrast to Taki, I do have more respect for these "bums, who blow themselves up" to rid their country of foreign invaders or tyrants. Sent at: 2008 07 24
