As for World War 2, I think the allied bombing campaign and the Soviet invasion were probably karma enough.
I don't know if I'd 100% agree on this point. I'd rather die in a bomb blast then die the way the nazi's would kill you. Actually it's not the way they'd kill you..it's just all the things they might of done to you before you die.

World War 1 wasn't Germany's fault anymore than it was England or France or Austria-Hungary or Russia's fault. It was a bunch of Imperial powers who didn't want to back down from a fight, that's all.
German riot police clash with anti-Islam protesters
Riots starting in Germany.
I would say this is a consequence of this:

Someone mentioned karma, that is where the discussion lead from. I personally do not believe in karma. I was just posting from a perspective of if it did exist I don't think what happened would even the scales of what happened during WW2.
Nobody said blame current Germans. We also did some messed up stuff in WW2, nowhere near nazi stuff, but yeah there it is. If you want to post a topic about 9/11 being karma for something that is your choice.

Good question. I agree so why do white Americans have to be punished for the sins of their fathers?

Europe blocks Balkans with razor wire

MACEDONIA is building a 10ft-high razor-wire fence along its border with Greece with EU help to try to stop hundreds of thousands of migrants travelling through the Balkans into Europe.
News of the move came as authorities in the German city of Cologne said the majority of people suspected of carrying out mass sex attacks on New Year’s Eve were illegal immigrants and asylum seekers. Police said 379 offences had been committed, 150 of them sexual assaults.
Armed border guards from six of the European Union’s eastern members are helping Macedonia, a non-EU member, to shore up its frontier against Greece, a member not just of the EU but also of its borderless Schengen zone.
The fence, due to be completed within the next few weeks, is modelled on one erected by Hungary on its own southern border in August.
Its construction has been prompted by the failure of Turkey

Even in this hypothetical situation, I don't see how punishing people who had nothing to do with the original wrongdoing is ''evening the scales''.
Karma is a b*tch? Again I never said anyone should be punished.
Also, I never said I wanted to post a topic. I made that statement as a comparison to illustrate how ridiculous your comments are.
I know you didn't really want to post a topic. But again..I was just going off the comment made about karma. I'm not the karma master here, I just said that if it was a thing that was real and the innocent people of Germany were going to suffer for WW2, bombing wouldn't really even the scales. Again, this doesn't mean I am saying you actually even the scales by doing that. But karma is all about evening the scales.
If you are saying karma would normally be put upon people who were somehow actually involved, well yes I would agree.
Well it was Syrian refugee's.
"Leaked police report claims senior police officers feared fatalities and that one of those involved in attacks told officers:
“I am Syrian. You have to treat me kindly. Mrs Merkel invited me"
And the Germans have had enough.

Just wow.
It's ironic how the German police used water cannons and pepper sprays against the PEGIDA protesters, but not against the alleged Muslim rapists. Germany is treating the scumbags with kindness and respect, but not with its own people.
If this socialist agenda keeps going, Brazil today = Germany tomorrow.
