I forget the exact quote now, but Goring said something like, "There was really no need to go through all of this circus just to kill us"

There was an interesting anecdote from Gulag Archipelago about the quarter of a million trials and prosecutions in West Germany of Nazis yet there were no trials or prosecution of Nazis in East Germany - of course the German armies disappeared into Siberia - I think Solzhenitsyn implied that the Soviets had that Nazi state essentially continue to exist in East Germany because all the government workers were never prosecuted - I’m not sure but it’s interesting

Stalin used communists predominantly ANTIFA to create the police state in Eastern Germany. Erich Mielke the head of the STASI was actually a member of ANTIFA who fled NAZI Germany to the Soviet Union following the kidnap and murder of two police officers. Sound familiar? They even called on of the officers they murdered pig face.
