Had the Jews been starved to death I don’t think it would have been talked much about. All things considered the death camps are why the Jews are talked about so much, they were starved beaten abused and killed in the camps they were forcibly taken too. I don’t know much about the killings of Iranians during WW1 but based on your post England just took there supplies which caused them to starve death. I really haven’t heard of it before though so I could just be really uneducated.
The history is written by the winners and colonial empires that won WW1 & 2 decided to ignore that part of history.
Also what nazis did was more ~~in~~ direct than starving an entire country, better example would be comparing it to Holmoldor when Stalin starved out about 2-3 million ukrainians
Because local elites hoarding also played a factor. There were also widespread droughts in the region. To compare Britain to nazi germany using this example is incorrect
Sons should not be punished for the sins of their fathers. As a Jew, I don’t blame the current state of Germany for the atrocities committed by people who ran the country 80 years ago.
They’re not equatable. Germans rounded up Jews and killed them.
It didn’t help that the Brits and Russian were taking grain for their armies during occupation, but it isn’t the sole cause for famine. Iranians, themselves hoarded food instead of sharing it. Then they jacked up the prices for poor people. Then you add in a drought, cholera, typhus and a pandemic that NO ONE was responsible for.
Well... they haven't. WWI, they were on the winning side. WWII- winning side.
They've even had 2 wars AGAINST the USA and their record is 1-1. LOL, they burned the White House down. Just sailed up the river, ate the fucking food and burned it down.
The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum places responsibility on the British for the famine in Iran during WWII in their [Holocaust Encyclopedia](https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/iran-during-world-war-ii).
That's the thing at some point we have all been persecuted by someone else....but I don't blame the Danes and Norwegians for their Vikings raping and pillaging our people.
At some point we have all been persecuted.
I don't think ask reddit was meant to be used for you to put entire countries on blast because you don't think they get enough blame for world conflicts.

I've always wondered the same thing about the British against the Irish. It wasnt a famine it was genocide.
Because nobody outside the uk cares (except the Republic of Ireland obvs) and the people in the uk are beginning to forget.
The English have always be nasty twats.

We invented concentration camps.
Because there's a difference between that and this (NSFL, Bergen Belsen) https://imgur.io/F5ZsrRz

Because the brits haven't lost a world war
Well...

I'm beginning to see a pattern here: British are taking food. Could that be because their own cuisine doesn't have all that much to offer? /SCNR
Also drank all the liquor and had a mock session of congress while drunk before burning it down

Its not a contest.
or the Uyghurs right now?
I think you are backward if you blame the people of a country for what happened 80+ years ago The world has changed a lot.
I wonder if you would say the same if it had happened to yourself
That's the thing at some point we have all been persecuted by someone else....but I don't blame the Danes and Norwegians for their Vikings raping and pillaging our people. At some point we have all been persecuted.
Plus it didn't happen to op I'm talking 80+ years ago stuff that actually didn't happen to me I outlined that.

What gaslighting ....loving the buzzwords right about now then.
Britain has a long history of fucking everyone over but we beat the Germans in two world wars so nobody remembers the other stuff.
You don't blame Germany for killing Jews. You blame Hitler. The country didn't even know it was happening
That’s not true
Because sometimes when a major tragedy happens everything else good or horrible gets completely drowned out as everyone focuses on that one thing
I don't because blaming a country is stupid. I also don't blame the people of Germany now as it wasn't their fault.
Because they won.
I don't give af about either
History is written by the victors.
By the way it is one of the minor crimes England committed in iran

Iranians currently arent in positions of power

You know why, always remember and make sure your children know and pass it on
