Nazi Collaborators--The Dutch Collaborator [Netherlands] UNCENSORED

On 10th of May 1940 Germany invaded Holland. Hitler's Blitzkreig or lightening war took neutral Holland completely by surprise.

Anton Mussert, leader of the right wing national socialist movement, known as the N.S.B.,offered his support to the occupiers.

They would play part in the extermination of 74% of Holland's Jewish population.

One such victim was Rudi Oppenheimer.Rudi explains in his own words how he, his elder brother and his sister only just survived Bergen-Belsen Concentration Camp.

Upon the surrender of Germany, Mussert was arrested at the NSB office in The Hague on 7 May 1945. He was convicted of high treason on 28 November after a two-day trial, and was sentenced to death on 12 December. He appealed to Queen Wilhelmina for clemency. She refused. On 7 May 1946, exactly one year after his arrest and four days before his 52nd birthday, Mussert was executed by a firing squad on the Waalsdorpervlakte, a site near The Hague, where hundreds of Dutch citizens had been killed by the Nazi regime.
