Craig Gottlieb & "Nazi War Diggers"

[Seigfried]

Entire thread has disappeared from War Relics forum.

Just out of interest, is that bell end a member of that forum? We did well to get rid of him or the WAF would be tainted.

If you mean CG, no. They won't even permit the use of his name.

"They won't even permit the use of his name. "

Too much! If that doesnt tell you something about the man!

Metal detecting forum has also removed the thread. Hopefully this show is "dead and buried".

It is all okay guys, Vera was supposed to get all the required permits and take all the courses on modern archeology. She was also supposed to have direct contacts with WAST, in the event that human remains are found. Accordingly, Vera should be fully trained, licensed and qualified to undertake all of this.

"Whaaat?!?!? Vera has done none of this?!? Why I oughta....I oughta....one day Vera, one day....POW!!!!!! TOOOO DAAAA MOOOON, VERA!!!! TOOOO DAAAA MOOOON!!!"

I think this is one of the funniest posts I've ever read on this forum.

Signed! Maybe any of the moderators could make a pinned thread in the colllectors community forum or any other forum, with just the link to the list and a link to this thread? So as many as possible would go there and sign against these awful pricks. I noticed they needed another 1500 names to make the list full. Just a suggestion

Understand why we put the ground dug forum in to the members section?
Get why i'm against the sale of dog tags and ground dug personal items?

This guy beggars belief

[BrianK]

Just when you think Gottlieb has taken it to a new low he surprizes you by going beyond the pale. Now he can add "grave robber" to his resume. Pathetic.....


Chet

He joins Charlie Snyder in the list of grave robbing TR dealers.

[Sepp45]

Maybe he finds Mengele's passport there

Hate to say it but you may want to pin it with an opening disclaimer as the problem is its snowballing and it allows for the perception that collectors and dealer do this or condone it. A couple articles have already alluded to dealers and if this is not nipped WAF not unlike the situation over at the other forum where one guy get death threats and their web address is in open view. You could see some sort of attack or whatever on the forum itself.

All those comments out there are from colledges and professors, academia and hot heads. I dont think this has hit its terminal velocity yet and its still spreading.

What Gottlieb et al are doing in this NG programme is reprehensible, but where do you all think 'ground dug' items come from.

Most of the items come from people living on the former Eastern Front who dig this stuff up and sell it. They probably care little for Human remains.

The next time someone comes on the forum with something ground dug think of Gottlieb and others like him who dig up graves for fun and profit.

But it is alien to most people or outsiders, he and his crew are sooooo far over so many lines that everyone and their mothers is angry.

I never tell anyone at work I collect German WW2 militaria because they might think I am a Nazi, now because of "nazi war diggers" I might also be suspected of being a grave robber

Great world we live in

I totally agree with this, I'm not normally one for knee-jerk reactions but personally I'd bin the 'ground dug' section entirely - it's down there with collecting KZ items for me I cannot put my finger on it's a part of TR that makes just makes me uncomfortable (and yes I can see the irony in that last statement!).

Imagine if it airs here? We will all be perceived and scum for merely buying it to people who have no clue what it is we really do. This thpe of behavior is bad for everyone and can only be good for glamor boyz looking to make a buck digging up bodies, permits or no permits its a bad thing.
