 In the continued debate on Rommel and his legacy, Christopher Gabel criticises the documentary "Rommel's War" (made by historians and Jean-Christoph Caron) for using false analogy to prove that Rommel was a war criminal by association, without providing any evidence even of Rommel's knowledge about crimes in his areas of operation.According to , attacks on Rommel's integrity and attempts to link him to war crimes, which were started by the "journalist side" in the 1990s, have been largely repudiated by serious research despite having been repeatedly rehashed and refreshed by some authors and their epigones.Stickler gives recognition to both Remy and Reuth for offering possible explanations for Rommel's character evolution.
