More spin, more deception, more lies.
- Hannover
About forty hexagonal paving slabs surround the statue displaying, rather in the fashion of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the names and ages of the 170 who died, the youngest aged four or five, the oldest a Sister born in 1869, without stating that they died in a British raid.
It seems odd, but I suppose that respect for the sensitivities of the English dictates a proper element of tact (rather like that monument on the beach at Timmendorfer Strand, in northern Germany: it records the burial place of the 7,000 refugees who were aboard the liners Cap Arcona and Deutschland, sunk by one Canadian pilot of the 2nd Tactical Air Force in May 1945, but it describes the victims as "concentration camp prisoners" of the Nazis, which is rather less than accurate).
