Russians went about it a bit differently.
I believe that only 2000 or so German war prisoners came out of Soviet concentration camps in 1955, out of a million or two. Built the railroads, oil wells, worked in manganese deposits and chemical plants, cleared up the taiga and died.
What is more moral(or immoral)- using war prisoners as slaves and lab rats or dropping 2 atomic bombs on children and elderly?
War is hell.P.S. Saw an NTV segment yesterday - a Hungarian man who spent the last 50 years in a Russian psychiatric hospital was just released and sent back home. He says that he saw Raoul Vallenberg in a psihushka in the late 40s - early 50s. Russians say Vallenberg died in Lubianka in 1947, convicted of spying for the US. Man saved 10 thousand Hungarian Jews.
