I don't get your obsession with defending a Nazi sympathiser, she's not a War historian by the way either, she's an art historian through and through.

When historians who actually dedicate their lives to the war era say she assisted the Nazis, with the ONLY debabatable part of it being the tortures, I'm not going to look at a source written by an author who is clearly in the high risk category for bias, who isn't a specialist in the area. We know for a fact she worked to supply Nazi troops. We know she was Hitlers honoured guest at the Olympics. We know she was considered at the time a member of the French wing of the Gestapo. The fact the resistance, who risked their lives to free France considered her a priority target should speak to the fact she was obviously more than a basic sympathiser. Was she a torturer, who knows. But the fact you brush of even basic sympathiser is fucking disgusting. "Basic" Nazi sympathisers still deserve the electric chair. Fuck glorifying Nazis or their supporters, no matter how basic
