    Even as a kid, I wondered why the main villain in the Young Sherlock Holmes was an Egyptian. Better yet, that Egyptian was actually Moriarty! Spielberg was probably still butthurt from the Yom Kippur War.

        Not really, since every Nazi is depicted as an unrepentant, vicious, brutal, self-interested monster except for Schindler, who gives up everything at great personal risk to save lives, and believes that when the liberators arrive he’ll be shot regardless. The movie even goes to some lengths to show how after the war ends a bunch of the Nazis we saw throughout are executed.

          Yeah, but Schindler was still a Nazi. Some Nazis were executed, some were put in the highest tier of North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
