So aside from murdering 6 million Jews and committing some of the foulest atrocities in human history, half of me has a natural, biological hatred of all things German, the other half being English is exactly the same, except the hatred is more rational, more logical.
Sorry you feel that way. You have of course every right to hate or not to hate whatever you want. Since you claim to be 17 I will not respond to your post the way I feel about it. Just let me say that your current views are unlikely to advance humankind. I hope you will be able to work out your issues.
This is sad, because its the kind of attitude that, for example, irritates the hell out of me about Scots for example, who still to this day, despite 200 years of union and benefitting from a strong relationship with England, still harp on about medieval wars between the two countries in their anthem and some Scots use as a reason to openly air prejudiced views My brother got attacked in Scotland for having an English accent, and it makes my blood boil thinking about it.
If you need a reason to be prejudice and dislike an entire nation, at least have something more up to date to fall back on I say.
At the moment I'm disliking the little smug quips that are coming out of the Fatherland about England not qualifying for the Euros from a whole host of German celebrites; their obsession with being brilliant at penalties and laughing at countries less good at them than they are.
For that reason - and the major fact that its not like they've not had success before - I don't particularly want them to win.
The War is an irrelevance, and so is this idea of hatred.
So come on Poland!
and they killed my grandfather
