The Benes Decree: Expulsion of Sudeteland Germans: \u201cAny act, the object of which is to aid the struggle for liberty of the Czechs and Slovaks is not illegal.\u201d \u201cAny violent act, including rape and the murdering of children, is sanctioned.\u201d \u2013\u2013 Edward Benes
Benes issued fifteen decrees with the sole intention of demonizing, and dehumanizing Magyars, and German citizens of Czechoslovakia. It is these that are called in the discussion \u201cBenesch-Decrees\u201d and which offended many people opposed to racism. Those stated decrees singled out German and Magyars of the CSR. and included : Benes-decree #115 of May 8th, 1946 that declared all criminal acts, including the rape and murder of children were \u201cjustified acts of retribution\u201d that could not be prosecuted.And so, even today, any of the Beneschists who murdered children cannot be called an \u201camnestied criminal\u201d in the Czech and Slovak Republics without libel action in court, because the still valid Benes-decrees state that what was done were not crimes.
