The incomplete quote could mislead people (its meaning was not clear)



to:

** This speech is very often misquoted and made look like Ehrenburg was claiming that Germans were actually inferior to Russians and encouraging Soviet soldiers to commit atrocities. The full text of the speech, however, shows that it is not the case:
-->Here are excerpts form three letters found on killed Germans.

-->Superintendent Reinhardt writes to Lieutenant Otto von Schirach:

-->"The French were taken to the factory. I've chosen six Russians from the Minsk Region. They are much more enduring than the French. Only one of them died, the rest continue to work in the field and on the farm. Their upkeep costs absolutely nothing, so we don't have to worry that these beasts, whose children could be killing our soldiers right now, eat German bread. Yesterday I lightly punished two Russian bastards who secretly drank skim milk that was for the pigs..."

-->Matheas Zimlich writes to his brother, Gefreiter Heinrich Zimlich:

-->"In Leiden there is a camp for Russians where you can see them. They don't fear weapons, but we talk to them with a good whipping..."

-->A certain Otto Essmann writes to Lieutenant Helmut Weigand:

-->"We have some captive Russians here. These freaks eat worms, they eat from the rubbish bin. I saw them eat grass. And to think these are humans!.."

-->These slavers want to turn our people into slaves. They bring Russians to their country, mock them, drive them to madness with hunger, to the point of eating grass and worms, and a filthy German with a rotten cigar in his mouth philosophises: "Are these even people?.."
-->We know everything. We remember everything. We understand: Germans are not people. Henceforth, the word "German" is the deadliest curse. Henceforth, the word "German" discharges rifles. We shall not talk. We shall not resent. We shall kill. If you haven't killed a single German in a day, your day is wasted. If you think your comrade will kill your German for you, you underestimate the threat. If you don't kill a German, the German will kill you. He will take all yours and he will torture them in his damned Germany. If you can't kill a German with a bullet, kill him with a bayonet. If all is calm on your part of the front, if you are waiting for the battle, kill a German before the battle. If you let a German live, the German will hang a Russian man and disgrace a Russian woman. If you've already killed a German, kill another one -- there's nothing more amusing for us than German corpses.
-->Don't count days. Don't count miles. Count only the Germans you've killed.
-->Kill the German! -- begs your old mother
-->Kill the German! -- prays your child
-->Kill the German! -- cries your Russian land
-->Don't miss.
-->Don't let up.
-->Kill!

->"Calling all Snow Pirates on E.D.N. III. I have a warning of utmost urgency. The military force you know as NEVEC are planning something that will be catastrophic for all who dwell on this planet. I know this because [[HeelFaceTurn I used to work for NEVEC]]. I believed in their goal to bring order to this planet. Now I know that goal was a lie, and their true aims have always been to amass thermal energy. That is why I abandoned NEVEC. Now they are trying to awaken the slumbering Over-G Akrid that lies beneath the planet's surface, and this will unleash massive amounts of thermal energy. NEVEC will take all this thermal energy, and then abandon the planet to its fate. But that is not all. If NEVEC is not stopped, and we do not prevent the awakening of the Over-G, then the sudden and terrible introduction of such large quantities of thermal energy will set off a reaction that will freeze this planet to its very core and kill everyone and everything living here.

-->"For the better part of a century, you assumed that any land you had could be lost at any time, and if that happened, you would just start over somewhere else. But there is nowhere else this time. Our place is here, on this planet. Our ancestors built a place for themselves here thanks to their indomitable spirit and the strength of their resolve. Now it is time to tap into that same resolve to protect what they struggled to build.

-->"To all Snow Pirates on E.D.N. III: if you can hear my voice, then I beseech you to put aside your differences and stand with me as one. Let us show NEVEC what happens when they threaten our home.

* Ihlya Ehrenburg was a Soviet propagandist who was widely loved by frontline Red Army soldiers. When you read one of his articles, given to Soviet ground forces as a radio address and through the ''Krasnaya Zvezda'' newspaper, you begin to understand just why the German's hated the Soviet Union, and just why they were so terrified of them. It really is chilling reading: ''"Do not count days; do not count miles. Count only the number of Germans you have killed. Kill the German - this is your old mother's prayer. Kill the German - this is what your children beg. Kill the German - this is the cry of your Russian earth. Do not waver. Do not let up. Kill."''[[note]] This speech is also used in one of the ''VideoGame/CallOfDuty'' games.[[/note]]

It really is chilling reading: ''"Do not count days; do not count miles. Count only the number of Germans you have killed. Kill the German - this is your old mother's prayer.

** From the other side, the '''Earl of Chatham''' gave one of the most savage, rousing, and awe-inspiring speeches in House of Commons history during the Revolutionary War. It was so powerful, and he was so old, that he died of a stroke soon after:

-->My Lords, I rejoice that the grave has not closed upon me; that I am still alive to lift up my voice against the dismemberment of this ancient and most noble monarchy! Pressed down as I am by the hand of infirmity, I am little able to assist my country in this most perilous conjuncture; but, my Lords, while I have sense and memory, I will never consent to deprive the royal offspring of the House of Brunswick, the heirs of the Princess Sophia, of their fairest inheritance. Where is the man that will dare to advise such a measure? My Lords, his Majesty succeeded to an empire as great in extent as its reputation was unsullied. Shall we tarnish the lustre of this nation by an ignominious surrender of its rights and fairest possessions? Shall this great kingdom, that has survived, whole and entire, the Danish depredations, the Scottish inroads, and the Norman conquest; that has stood the threatened invasion of the Spanish Armada, now fall prostrate before the House of Bourbon? Surely, my Lords, this nation is no longer what it was! Shall a people, that seventeen years ago was the terror of the world, now stoop so low as to tell its ancient inveterate enemy, take all we have, only give us peace? It is impossible! ...My Lords, any state is better than despair. Let us at least make one effort; and if we must fall, '''''let us fall like men!'''''
