there can be none in Europe.
My sources are all former italian non-cooperating prisoners so they are not exactly in the same situation as jews, at least apparently.
However many of them claimed to me that their fate wasn't different from the jews: the jews got money after the war, they were instead refused and paid a pittance from the german government for their forced labor under famine and a cruel discipline.
It must be said that former italian prisoners of the english in India or non-cooperators in the US Hereford prison were left to rot almost without assistance and food exactly in the same way.
Their tales correspond exactly to that of the ex prisoners in germany, including the extreme weight loss at the end of prisony (a man released from Hereford was down from 80 kilos to 40 something).
In soviet captivity, six out of seven died of hunger and lack of care.
