Dutch Heroes, Collaborators and Traitors during WWII: A deep analysis using great colorized footage
This is part-2 of my series about the Netherlands during WW2. The main theme of part-2 is to address the question how many Dutch people sympathized with the German occupation and why.
The comments section under part-1 has shown that there was and still is a lot of controversy about this matter. In a number of cases it has lead to quite some nasty debates during which it has become clear, at least to me, that especially a contingent of young viewers have a totally misplaced and misguided concept of what actually happened during WW2 and in particular in the Netherlands. Not only does it show that the quality of history lessons worldwide is not what it used to be, but in the absence of proper understanding of the driving forces behind the WW2 scenes, many make the big mistake of judging history through today’s eyes.
I have done my best to give insight into what I believe actually happened in the Netherlands during WW2 and to do so on the basis of verified historic facts in an as neutral as possible manner, without bringing feelings and emotions into the equasion.

*ATTENTION* ! Please do not ruin the comments section under this video like what happened with part-1 and which eventually forced me to close it. By all means share your facts, thoughts and opinions on this topic, but do this with respect, decency and good understanding of the circumstances during WW-II in the Netherlands. Hateful, respectless, rude and rubbish comments will simply be removed. This channel is intended to provide a better understanding of history and not to become a public sewer filled with waste and debris from today’s sad world. Please understand!
