Germans were a victim of WW1.

That's ... an interesting way to describe the power which practically controlled Ottoman empire's state apparatus so that it wouldn't crumble through the years which cleansed Asia Minor and Western Armenia of civilized presence by murdering and breaking people constituting that presence in every way possible.

Which was also allied to Austria-Hungary which started the war in the first place, and also committed plenty of war crimes in Serbia and Western Ukraine.

Obviously Germans themselves did plenty of that too.

It's just that the war wasn't on German territory mostly.
