Erica Steinbach, 67, is a symbol of Polish fears that future generations of Germans will grow up with a distorted vision of the war and its aftermath and is often portrayed as a Nazi in SS uniform.
"Her offense is that she claims to speak for the millions of ethnic Germans who were expelled from their homes in Poland and elsewhere in eastern Europe after World War II. These accusers say she is revising history and drawing a moral parallel between the cruelties the Germans inflicted and the sufferings they later endured."
