Géza Dunajszky The ploughed mass graves: 'Home defence and the destruction of the Carpathian Germans'- once again a terrifying read about us and our still silenced past...
***
I would like to remind you that the father of former First Lady Livia Klaus, Štefan Miština, was a member of the secret police of the Slovak state, i.e. the father-in-law of President Václav Klaus. He was personally involved in the confiscation of the property of Slovak Jews who subsequently ended up in Auschwitz. Livia Klaus never answered my questions - not even as the Czech ambassador to Slovakia.
-At the time of the 1930 census, there were 691 923 Hungarians and 3 123 568 Germans living in Czechoslovakia, of whom 155 000 were resident in Slovakia.
-It does not take much mathematical talent to work out why by 1950 only 6,259 of the 155,000 Carpathian Germans remained selected Slovak (Saxon) Germans. If we accept that "only" 32,450 people were displaced to present-day Germany, the number of people executed and killed in the fighting at that time is 116,291!
-If we also know that on 20 February 1946 there were still 62,643 people claiming German nationality in the concentration camps in Slovakia, and in 1950 there were only 6,259, then of the above number of persons (116,291) the number of persons later disappeared is close to 24,000 (23,934). This means that these people did not lose their lives in the fighting, but after the war. It was only in peacetime that they fell victim to the Czech nationalist attitude of President Beneš's government. These Carpathian Germans disappeared between 3 April 1945 and 31 October 1947 in 107 concentration camps in Slovakia!
-This number, however, does not include those who died during the deportation due to torture, starvation, epidemics (typhus, TB, measles, rickets, etc.) and other diseases during the journey and got no further than Leipzig, not to their planned destination in East or West Germany. And unfortunately some of them arrived in Leipzig on the trains already dead.
-The loss of these innocent people also shows, in this case, the inhuman and cruel attitude of the Czechoslovak authorities, more specifically President Benes and members of his government, the Czech and Slovak persons involved in these activities, the doctors actively involved in the deportation processes, and the soldiers of the Czechoslovak army. Nor can the violence committed by the Germans on Slovak territory, such as the burning of villages (Tokajík/Felsőtokaj on 19-20 November 1944; Kľak and Ostrý Grúň/Madarasalja and Élesmart) on 21 January 1945; Skýcov/Kicő on 15 March 1945; Kališt'a/Kalistya on 18 March 1945) and other similar reprisals be excused, even though they were preceded by serious, bloody partisan attacks on German settlements throughout the Carpathian Mountains.
