Poorly sourced and poorly explained

edit

People who held on to plundered property considered it their own and resented survivors who came back to claim their property. - the statement is true in general, not only about Jewish property. If you claim that Jews were discriminated you have to quote RS.Xx236 (talk) 08:13, 21 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

This is sourced to an academic book - Searching for Justice After the Holocaust: Fulfilling the Terezin Declaration and Immovable Property Restitution, By Michael J. Bazyler, Kathryn Lee Boyd, Kristen L. Nelson, Oxford University Press, 2019, pages xxxiii-xxxvi, written by experts in the field and covering the Terezin Declaration as a topic. Oxford University Press is a reputable publisher. This is not "poorly sourced" - it is as good as a source one can get. Your statement on non-Jewish property may or may not be true, however this is irrelevant as the Terezin Declaration addresses Jews and other target groups (e.g. Roma).

It's fascinating to learn that Poles weren't a target group. What is a traget group? A group defined by Oxford University? Unfortunately the Nazis didn't know they should spare Poles, especially educated Poles and Catholic clergy.Xx236 (talk) 09:20, 21 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
As far as I know Holocaust survivors in Communist countries got almost no compensation from Western Germany. Isn't it a problem?Xx236 (talk) 11:36, 21 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
There are plenty of "unfinoished businesses" - Poland and Greece got no compensations from Germany. Poland doesn't have a peace treaty with Germnay. Germnay participates in D-Day anniversaries, Poland doesn't. The majority of German and Austrian criminals weren't punished. Austria doesn't preserve Gusen concentration camp.Xx236 (talk) 11:39, 21 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
