And yet Zille's entire line of reasoning was more in line with the Americans, who after WW II eagerly swept up the Nazi scientists in order to utilise their expertise to win the space race.

The advantages of building on the legacy of Nazi technology, while in no uncertain terms still condemning the Nazis for what they did, are plain to see.

I'm of the opinion that the DA is imploding with this and that the DA's response to the matter has caused far more damage to its reputation than Zille's tweets. Zille is the victim of Kafkatrapping here. The only thing she did wrong was being insensitive and perhaps offensive. From there, the DA just made it worse. 

Ask yourself: Who would vote DA now as a result of this witch hunt of Zille?
