The decrees using the principle of responsibility, not guilt or collective guilt[
(The Sudeten German Party was secretly subsidized by the Foreign Ministry in Berlin to the tune of 180 000 mark a year. For the parliamentary election, Henlein was awarded a subsidy of 330 000 Reichmarks, an astronomical amount by the standard of the time. Henlein summoned all the newly elected deputies to appear before him at Cheb (Eger), to swear allegiance to him personally before they had a chance to take the formal constitutional oath in Parliament)

Those persons who voted for the Nazi-Henlein Party in the Czechoslovakian election, 1938, (more than ninety percent of the sudeten germans did) "who profited from the Nazi regime, fullfiled their orders and did not resist them, are responsible for the gas chambers, consentration camps and mass exterminations of millions." (No excuses exist I'm afraid) The German nation (including the sudeten germans) is in the first line responsible for the inception and development of nazi barbarism in Czechoslovakia. "The German side acknowledges Germany's responsibility." The transfere was a logical and legal procedure initiated by the Allied Powers and not an isolated Czech action against the Germans
