I recently watched the French documentary film “Eye of Vichy“, via Netflix streaming. It is a collection of original Vichy French propaganda films. I was amazed to see just how deeply collaborationist Petain’s government was with the Nazis. Granted, the Germans were holding a million captured French soldiers hostage, but why did the French become so enthusiastic about rounding up Jews, hunting down the resistance, and manufacturing war materiel for the Axis? There are lessons to be learned from this film. If we aren’t vigilant, we may have our own version of the Milice prowling the streets of American cities. OBTW, don’t miss the included propaganda cartoon showing Mickey Mouse and Popeye bombing France. Propaganda like that is pure evil.
