au contrare, my little pissant. while my irish-american daddy was being awarded a silver star, a bronze star with a V for valor and oak leaf cluster, a purple herat with oak lea cluster and a CIB during the rhineland campaign, you and yours were failing to hold their piss and letting their shit waft away in the wind. he died early from one of those wounds, which affected him for years. his irish wife, who was in the red cross, was left alone to raise five kids, me being the oldest.
meanwhile, let us talk about the jewish ancestors who survived those camps...
Concentration camps were controlled by the SS, but day-to-day organization was supplemented by the system of functionary prisoners, a second hierarchy that made it easier for the Nazis to control the camps. These prisoners made it possible for the camps to function with fewer SS personnel, which saved the Third Reich money[citation needed]. The prisoner functionaries were sometimes as much as 10% of the inmates.[4][5] The Nazis were able to keep the number of SS personnel who had direct contact with the prisoners very low in comparison to normal prisons today. Without the functionary prisoners, the SS camp administrations would not have been able to keep the day-to-day operations of the camps running smoothly.[6][7]
The kapos often did this work for extra food, cigarettes, alcohol or other privileges.

i wonder how many packs of smokes chucking a little jewish kid into a shower cost, anyway? i wonder if they put some sugar in that wine and raised a glass saying "next year in jerusalem."
one thing the irish know...sometimes the price of survival is too dear. sometimes it is better to stand and fight.
too bad some six million jews couldn't figure that out. maybe, had they, i could have enjoyed my father a few more years.
put that in your little collection of slurs. be sure to leave out the context of your accusation about how my ancestors collaborated with the NAZIs.
