Open violence breaks out, and the Red Army soldiers are all killed the villagers set fire to their village and flee.Despite Nazi hostility to religion, a cynical piece of antiCommunist propaganda depicts the Communists as posting obscene antireligious posters, and the Frisians as piously declaring that all authority comes from God. ........
