�⇅All / On "David Irving"
    I'm very pleased to announce that our selection of HTML Books now contains works by renowned World War II historian David Irving, including his magisterial Hitler’s War, named by famed military historian Sir John Keegan as one of the most crucial volumes for properly understanding that conflict. Hitler's War David Irving • 1991 • 397,000...
  • David Irving’s “racist ditty” (extemporarily enunciated to his then-nine-year-old daughter while out on a walk):

    I am a Baby Aryan,
    Not Jewish or Sectarian.
    I have no plans to marry-an
    Ape or Rastafarian

  • Rumble link Bitchute link Globalization Studies professor Anthony Hall discusses his recent essays On the Condemnation of "Holocaust Denial"and Exterminating the Genocide Convention. He writes: Are Israeli Jews brainwashed by lies and/or exaggerations about the World War II Holocaust? Has that pernicious programming influenced their genocidal mentality? Are we allowed to talk about this? Anthony...

    What a good man Tony Hall is – someone who has much to contribute in the way of articles he could post here in the UR.
    �
    LOL. That's because Hall is a total lunatic.

    Several years ago I carelessly republished one of the very long articles he'd sent me without actually reading through it, only to discover that he claimed that China had diabolically launched a biological warfare project aimed at totally exterminating the entire population of America and the rest of the world's non-Chinese, after which China would send out hundreds of millions of Chinese to colonize all those depopulated countries, including our own.

    And in the spirit of encapsulation – I go on to theorize that the gut shot was also secretly about Hitler and how you promote Hitler sometimes.
    �
    Can you elaborate on that? How is the gut shot related to Hitler?

    In any case, Hitler does not need to be promoted by anyone, least of all me.
    Any objective reading of WWII history will demonstrate emphatically that Hitler's Third Reich was working to unshackle the world from debt usury and indentured servitude to the Zionist Cartel of Bankers, that shadowy group of Jewish financiers that control the entirety of the western financial system.

    We all owe Germany a debt of gratitude for their valiant efforts in both WWI & II in standing up to the Vampire Squid and sacrificing so much, so that we may all be free one day.
    Their efforts have not been in vain. They have a established a template for the citizenry of the world to follow and future history books will bestow the appropriate accolades that they so richly deserve.

    Meanwhile, the collateral damage from the Covid clot shots continues to build up.
    I don't know for sure whether these deaths of young men*in the links below are Covid vaxx related, but it's all mighty suspicious:

    The first few paragraphs from that article read:

    Children’s Health Defense’s The Defender has a blockbuster report.

    “A group of Argentine scientists identified 55 chemical elements—not listed on package inserts—in the Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca, CanSino, Sinopharm and Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccines, according to a study published last week in the International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Practice, and Research.â€

    “The chemical elements include 11 heavy metals—such as chromium, arsenic, nickel, aluminum, cobalt and copper—which scientists consider systemic toxicants known to be carcinogenic and to induce organ damage, even at low exposure levels.â€

    ARSENIC in the vaccines? How does that happen? I can’t see how a vaccine assembly line would be accidentally contaminated with arsenic, from other prior uses.

    On Hitler – idk, but I also identify usury as the root cause of problems in the world. A solution to that problem is always welcome on my end.

    As for covid shots, before the more technical data was available I already had the dead babies defense. Before mRNA during the first news of covid I played it safe – they had me unsure enough that I was sanitizing my grocery items. It took me about two weeks to notice the first big red flag of what turned out to be…. Red flag city. (first little red flag was actually the very beginning with news out of China depicting folks dropping dead on the street LOL)

    On the street level in NZ the damage done by our particular batch of mRNA shots is obvious. Knock on any door and the occupants all know someone in their 40s that died within a week or so after a dose. Not to mention the (((vaccinated))) keep getting sick all the time.

    My first cousin 40ish – lived a perfect life, did everything right, took the shots cos her job…. And now she has a cancer which grew aggressively and all of sudden. Basically every group of people I know – roughly 20% seem to have developed some kind of condition post genetic modification.

    Meanwhile all the black sheep of the family didn’t get the shot and their health has remained normal. I caught a couple of strange colds but haven’t been sick again nearly a couple years now. I tricked my doctor into prescribing ivermectin for ‘parasites’ which I consumed during my last cold.

    LOL. That's because Hall is a total lunatic.

    Several years ago I carelessly republished one of the very long articles he'd sent me without actually reading through it, only to discover that he claimed that China had diabolically launched a biological warfare project aimed at totally exterminating the entire population of America and the rest of the world's non-Chinese, after which China would send out hundreds of millions of Chinese to colonize all those depopulated countries, including our own. I was quite embarrassed to discover I'd run that piece.

    I also seem to recall that he later published lots of comments claiming that I was some sort of CIA agent or something like that.

    After all, I'd guess that if you just gathered together the random lunatics who rant on street corners in torn clothes or who have already been permanently institutionalized, at least 50% of them would also say the same thing that Hall does about Holocaust Denial. So I think that Hall has plenty of company in that topic.

    But since you yourself are a lunatic anti-vaxxer, what else should I expect?

    a leading biographer of famed Jewish modernist writer Gertrude Stein, who seemed totally mystified why her feminist icon seemed to have been a major admirer of Hitler and an enthusiastic supporter of the pro-German Vichy government of France. The author also notes that Stein was hardly alone in her sentiments, which were generally shared by so many of the leading writers and philosophers of that period.

    On the subject of “feminist iconsâ€, let’s remember Marie Carmichael Stopes. Who was a big shiny public figure for British eugenicists and other pseudo-intellectuals of this sort back from 1918 or so. And it should not be too surprising that…

    In 1935, she attended a Nazi Congress for Population Science in Berlin. Four years later she sent Hitler a gushing personal letter along with a volume of her love poems: ‘Dear Herr Hitler, love is the greatest thing in the world: so will you accept from me these that you may allow the young people of your nation to have them?‘
    ― from CMF blog https://cmfblog.org.uk/2019/05/07/marie-stopes-history-erases-ugly-facts-to-create-a-mythical-feminist-hero/

    Und so weiter. It’s like a bad anime — «These l-love poems are… uh… for use of those racially pure German youths! *blush*» Later she got even more giddy and expressed her feelings in a more straightforward manner:
    Catholics and Prussians,
    The Jews and the Russians,
    All are a curse,
    Or something worse…

    Birds of a feather, indeed. Sure, Hitler had ghoulish “episodes†at times (and oddly squeamish at other times)… And the Nazi allowed, say, Doctor Mengele to have his kind of fun, but he seems basically kicked upstairs in a way that kept him out of public sight.
    But then it turns out some of their contemporaries, friends and supporters were the kind of people who seriously opposed developing cures for tuberculosis, yet how many people wring hands about that?
    More importantly, NSDAP does not exist for almost 80 years, so their antics, however unappetizing or crazy, are but fodder of history. Some Wehraboo pop up here and there, but they are little more than an obscene joke, and most people treat them accordingly.
    Now, good old Mrs. Stopes? Her megalomaniacal exuberant ghoulishness is only comparable to the likes of Leon Trotsky or John Holdren… and she is still treated as a saint by many. Should someone ever argue that the world is certainly sane, keep this in mind.

Although Auschwitz itself may not have been an “extermination” camp, there were what amounted to such things further east. He said the figure for the victims was most likely in the millions. He even goes so far as to admit the possibility (in his view unlikely) that Hitler may have told his criminal underlings to go about their duties however they saw fit, but to keep him out of the loop.

    My Little Bunny fufu,

    I have learned quite a bit about Polish history since debating with you, and thanks again for fighting the Mongols. Having said that, I still think Poles should have bees in their bonnets over the Russians bringing Mongolian soldiers into Eastern Europe. I’m just saying…..

    Weren’t the Teutonic Knights fighting paganism? I know they were Germanic, and I’m not saying they were correct to attack pagans, but religious wars never cease to occur. Nearly every group of people fight over it at some point. So, it was not necessarily a German vs. Pole ethnic battle.

    I found this information the other day:

    From ForeignPolicy.com:

    MARCH 21, 2023, 11:16 AM
    On a sweltering summer day, July 10, 1941, hundreds of Jews were murdered by their Polish neighbors in the village of Jedwabne, almost 100 miles northeast of Warsaw. Babies were killed. Men were tortured. Women were raped. A young girl was decapitated and her head used as a soccer ball.
    Villagers whose lives had not been extinguished with axes, clubs, and knives were rounded up and taken first to the market square and then to the outskirts of town, where they were herded into a barn. The wooden structure was doused with kerosene and set alight. Women, children, and men were burned alive as the jeering crowd watched. Their cries of agony reverberated throughout the village. Looting of the victims’ homes followed as peasants from neighboring villages showed up to take part in the plunder.
    A monument erected near the barn where the Jews were immolated blamed Poland’s Nazi occupiers for the pogrom. Townspeople walked by the plaque for decades, knowing that it was a lie. Sixty years later, Polish Jewish historian Jan Gross’s Neighbors: The Destruction of the Jewish Community in Jedwabne, Poland uncovered the truth, drawing on documents long buried in archives and interviews with survivors: The massacre was perpetrated by the local villagers rather than their German occupiers. Similar massacres were reported from nearby towns, including Radzilow, Szczuczyn and Wasocz.
    …………………………………………………………………………….

    I don’t bring this up to castigate Poland. But, things just are not always as they seem, and that’s often true on both sides of one issue. One thing is always consistent though; the Jews are eventually targeted for expulsion by nearly everyone in the communities in which they reside, regardless of nationality, and throughout history, with nearly the exact accusations of perfidy claimed all around. Did Jews assist a Swedish invasion of Poland? Did they assist the Moors into Spain? Did they support the Bolsheviks? Does George Soros fund immigration into America and Europe. Yes, yes, yes, and yes. It’s the same pattern, evident today.

    Regarding mass graves, the skeletal remains can be approximately dated, but unless DNA tests are done, how can we know who is buried? With two world wars, and multiple conflicts before and after, I suspect there are mass graves everywhere. If you are interested, you can view Hellstorm: The Death of Nazi Germany on video on Odysee. I suspect there are mass German graves all over the place, courtesy of Bolshevik/Soviet soldiers, who also murdered Polish citizens, as well.

    Little Bunny, I am telling you, Germans and Poles have more in common than not, especially these days. With centuries of immigration throughout your territory, there is just no way German ethnicity is not carried, to some extent, by many Poles. I don’t care what the anti-Hitlerites say, I think Hitler preferred cooperation with Slavic countries. I listened to many speeches and read his writings, and whilst singing the praises of Germans, he did disparage other peoples, but that doesn’t equate to wanting to eliminate other nations. He was ultimately backed into a corner, and came out swinging, to put it mildly. I don’t think he ever said Polish people, as a group, would ruin Europe. The Jews, however…..

So much for the famous Unz brain.
    �
    I don't like being insulted or accused of dishonesty, especially when I'm probably correct. Wikipedia obviously isn't reliable on controversial topics, but I think its simple factual information can usually be trusted.

    The big national Nazi newspaper in Nazi Germany was apparently Völkischer Beobachter, which supposedly had a circulation of 1.2 million by 1941:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V%C3%B6lkischer_Beobachter

    Meanwhile, the local Nazi newspaper in Berlin, founded and published by Goebbels was Der Angriff, supposedly had a circulation of 110,600 in July 1932, though it gradually declined afterwards.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Der_Angriff

    The total population of Nazi Germany in the late 1930s was around 90 million, while the population of Berlin was around 4.3 million, or less than 5% of the total.

    So on a pro-rata basis, we'd expect fewer than 60,000 copies of the national Nazi newspaper to be distributed in Berlin. But as the political capital city, the actual rate would probably have been far higher. Still, it seems a very open question whether more copies of Goebbels' paper were distributed in Berlin than copies of the national Nazi newspaper. Maybe some expert on Nazi Germany knows the answer to that.

    But if distribution in Germany's capital city were at least roughly comparable between the two newspapers, it's ridiculous of you to describe Goebbels' own Berlin newspaper as a "small" or insignificant one.

    Early on in this ridiculous dispute, you'd pointed to Arthur Butz, a man you greatly admire, as someone who would never use the word "Nazi" in his book. When I checked and pointed out he'd used it almost exclusively, something like 250 times, you refused to admit you'd been mistaken.

    Here's another example that just came to mind. I assume that you regard Ernst Zundel as a great personal hero of yours. I remember a few years ago I saw an interview of him by some journalist in which he was accused of being a Neo-Nazi. His reply was "I'm not a Neo-Nazi, I'm a Nazi!" So unless my memory is faulty, he publicly embraced that term just as much as you prefer being called a "Hitlerist."

    I think the reason you've being so stubborn is mostly embarrassment. You've apparently spent decades very intensely focused on all aspects of Hitler and Nazi Germany, while I paid very little attention to the subject. Then I suddenly come along and just casually notice that you were probably mistaken in one of your conclusions. It's very difficult for you to admit that likelihood.

    I come back in desperation to the task of getting you to reflect on how you can be so naively (and stubbornly) wrong about matters you have taken up because you realised how naively wrong you had been for many years until the reading you did which lead to American Pravda changed your assumptions.

    I daresay pop psych would explain you as “on the spectrum” when it comes to your evident lack of people skills which can’t be exercised by deliberate exercise of your high IQ intellect, if only to amaze and impress, and to your pigheadedness about admitting error (or even the likelihood of it: Cp. that ludicrous 99%). No doubt, but it is a shame that you deliver naive belief to crooks and shysters like your Ukrainian crew of hopeless experts.

    I have now, in recent comments, shown you
    the contrast if you read Prof Michael Lawriwsky or Prof Mark Edele (e.g) and I invite you to at least seek an excuse for the absurdities you must now renounce by claiming an understandable starting authority in John Mearsheimer. Heroically right in taking on the Zionist Jewish Lobby but, sadly, now diminished by Ukraine. Right?

    Hitler was indeed anything but the frothing of the mouth stereotype when talking to others. Never have I seen a historical figure who was so chameleon-like, so adept at adapting himself to whatever would work best with the target. Not for nothing did he call himself the "best actor in Europe". Hitler's intuitive reading of the weaknesses and biases of other human beings might have been even more important than his oratory in explaining his political success.

    (Note that Hitler's Frederick the Great style strategy after 1941 was more strategically sound than people think. He was essentially right in thinking the Allies would fall apart because the divergences of interests between Soviet Communists and Anglo-American capitalists was too great to be reconciled. He just underestimated their determination to rub him off the face of the earth first-there would be no Frankfurt Proposals for Adolf Hitler.)

    The German military was not mad for war because they knew they'd be unlikely to win a long-term battle against a grand coalition, not because they didn't think it was Germany's right to dominate Europe in the long run. That said, it was highly negligent on the part of the Western World to ignore the overture that the Junkers tried to make in 1938-and a German dominated Europe is what we've got right now anyway. Hitler's smashing of the French army pretty much gave them the lower hand in arguments for the next couple of years, especially when it came to the extremely underestimated (both inside and outside of Germany) USSR. But as I mentioned in the comment, while Hitler made the fatal mistake of underestimating Stalin's USSR, so did most professional military opinion, both in and outside Germany, especially after the Winter War.

    That, and by 1939, the junior officer corps and enlisted ranks were heavily Nazified. Nazi ideology particularly stressed targeting young people, and here, they were extremely successful. They couldn't be relied on in any coup, as 1944 would ultimately show. It's the same thing that bit the Turkish generals in the butt a few years back when they tried to overthrow Erdogan. The AKP had been allowed to conslidate its power and the enlisted ranks were all Anatolian believers.

    Simone Weil, French resistance, 1942– It seems to me difficult to deny that Hitler conceives, and conceives clearly, a kind of physics of human matter…laws that he has not invented but that before him were presented so forcibly and distinctly only by men of genius. He possesses an exact notion of the range of the power of force.

    > Thus it wasn’t Hitler’s scheming and plotting that brought it all on.

    It was indeed Hitler's scheming which accounted for the specific way and time that the Czechoslovak state broke apart. It's true that without Hitler's intervention, there probably would still have occurred an eventual break-up of the Czechoslovak state in, say, 1941 or thereabouts. Such a break-up could have easily been worked out on the international stage, with Britain and France participating along with Germany to establish a neutralized zone in eastern Europe. But that was not Hitler's goal.

    Hitler envisioned his demands on Czechoslovakia and Poland as part of the drive to the east to conquer living space in Russia and Ukraine. Sitting around for a few years while the Slovaks debated what they wanted to do was not compatible with Hitler's timetable. He needed to swiftly establish his position on the Czech and Polish reasons in order to promptly move further east.

    For this reason, German officials worked to provoke the crisis of March 9, 1939:

    -----
    Furthermore, Mr. Hencke, German Charge d' Affaires in Prague, encouraged the Czechs to use a strong hand with respect to Slovakia. On March 9, 1939, he was formally requested by Berlin to "reveal" to the Czech governmental circles a conspiracy being formed in Bratislava which would aim at the proclamation of independence. The Prague government naturally nibbled at the bait... The evening of March 9, 1939, the President of the Republic, Mr. Hacha, proceeded to the dissolution of the Slovak government of Monsignor Tiso...
    -----
    -- Joseph Mikus, Slovakia: A Political History 1918-1950, pp. 78-9.

    Once Hacha had dismissed the Tiso government, Hitler proceeded to set down his own terms on Tiso:

    -----
    Now he had permitted Monsignor Tiso to come here in order to make his position clear in a very short time... He would stand by his word as long as Slovakia made it clear that she desired independence. If she hesitated or did not wish to dissolve her connection with Prague, he would leave the destiny of Slovakia to the mercy of events for which he was no longer responsible.

    Hitler then asked Ribbentrop whether he had anything to add, and Ribbentrop repeated that a decision must be made within hours and not days. He showed the Fuehrer a message he had just received which reported Hungarian troop movements to the Slovak frontiers. The Fuehrer read the report, mentioned it to Tiso and expressed the hope that Slovakia would soon make her decision.
    -----
    Ibid, pp. 81-82.

    In this way, Tiso was pressed into declaring independence right then and there. Taylor's commentary suffers from the weakness of being a glittering generality. Although there is a broad-brush of truth to the idea that Czechoslovakia was likely to come apart in the relatively near future, the way that this occurred was definitely Hitler's creation.

    It's a lot like the way that one can say that the Ukrainian territory of Poland in 1939 would likely have split from the country sooner or later, even without the intervention of Joseph Stalin. There was a lot that was contrived and artificial about the eastern borders of 1939 Poland. But obviously, the annexation of these territories into the USSR was not something predestined.

    It’s not broad-brushed but the exact truth as revealed by how it came apart after break-up of Soviet Union without the slightest nudge from Hitler that were the exact same forces that split it apart that would have happened in exactly the same way as it happened later.

    Did Hitler use those tensions to his advantage? Of course he did. Who wouldn’t.

    The big national Nazi newspaper in Nazi Germany was apparently Völkischer Beobachter, which supposedly had a circulation of 1.2 million by 1941:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V%C3%B6lkischer_Beobachter

    Meanwhile, the local Nazi newspaper in Berlin, founded and published by Goebbels was Der Angriff, supposedly had a circulation of 110,600 in July 1932, though it gradually declined afterwards.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Der_Angriff

    The total population of Nazi Germany in the late 1930s was around 90 million, while the population of Berlin was around 4.3 million, or less than 5% of the total.

    So on a pro-rata basis, we'd expect fewer than 60,000 copies of the national Nazi newspaper to be distributed in Berlin. But as the political capital city, the actual rate would probably have been far higher. Still, it seems a very open question whether more copies of Goebbels' paper were distributed in Berlin than copies of the national Nazi newspaper. Maybe some expert on Nazi Germany knows the answer to that.

    But if distribution in Germany's capital city were at least roughly comparable between the two newspapers, it's ridiculous of you to describe Goebbels' own Berlin newspaper as a "small" or insignificant one.

    Early on in this ridiculous dispute, you'd pointed to Arthur Butz, a man you greatly admire, as someone who would never use the word "Nazi" in his book. When I checked and pointed out he'd used it almost exclusively, something like 250 times, you refused to admit you'd been mistaken.

    Another misleading distortion. The Slovakian government did not get up and decide to declare independence. Hitler called the Slovak representatives into his office and threatened that if they did not promptly declare independence and request a protectorate from Germany, then he would back Horthy’s encroachments of Slovakia.
    �
    The only misleading distortion is your claim that rather than the Slovakian govt just deciding to declare independence on March 14, they actually did it apparently immediately after Hitler had called them into his office and he used his magical powers to force them to succumb to his demands.

    That the decision was not arrived in such sudden haste and under such pressure is made obvious by the trail of dates even he recites that led up to it starting Horthy showing his willingness to reach an agreement with Prague when on August 22 interecepted phone conversations "that at a meeting of foreign ministers of the Little Entente in faraway Bled the Hungarian delegation had apparently formally renounced all use of force against Czechoslovakia; the wiretaps showed that Horthy, Kanya and his prime minister, Bela von Imredy, had retrospectively sanctioned this.

When are you going to declare independence, so we don’t have to turn you over to the Hungarians?"

    So this pressure cooker Hitler stoked up took at least eight months to do its work that Hitler completed by simply calling the Slovaks into his office.

    A.J.P Taylor in Origins of the Second World War (Greenwich, CT: Fawcett Pubs. Inc.. 1961) instead describes as follows the conditions and circumstances leading to that decision:

    "But, as both Benet and Hitler had foreseen, it was impossible to hold the state together once Czech prestige and power were shaken. In Western eyes, Czechoslovakiaa was a happy, democratic state, wantonly dismembered by Hitler. In fact, it was a state of nationalities, created by Czech initiative and maintained by Czech authority. Once this weas broken, disintegration followed, just as the collapse of the Hapsburg monarchy followed defeat in the first World War.

    "The Slovaks in particular had never been accepted as equal partners. . . . The demand for Slovak autonomy provided a grumbling under-current throughout the twenty years of Czechoslovakian history; after Munich, it came to the surface. Hitler patronized the Slovakian autonomists in order to spite Hungary, to whom Slovakia had originally belonged. The movement was not created by him; he merely took advantage of it, as he had done of the German Austrians and the Sudeten Germans. He would have been satisfied with Slovak autonomy within a subservient Czechoslovakian state. The Slovaks were not. Freed from their old awe of Prague, they grew turbulent. By the end of February 1939 Czecho-Slovakia (hyphenated since the previous October0 was crumbling. The Prague government might have little independence left; they still felt strong enough to discipline the Slovaks-- indeed had to do so if Czecho-Slovakia were to survive. On March 9, the autonomous Slovak government was dismissed; Czech troops prepared to move it. Once again Hitler was taken by surprise. . . He could not allow the Czechs to restore their damaged prestige. On the othr hand, if he insisted on Czech forces keeping out of Slovakia the Hungarians might well move in [and reclaim their older territory] as they had planned to do in the previous September. Now Hitler turned against the Hungarians; and since the Czech army could no longer enter Slovakia to deter them, he had to do it himself.

    "Germany hastily recognized Slovak independence, and thus brought Czecho-Slovakia to an end (pp 195-196)."

    Thus it wasn't Hitler's scheming and plotting that brought it all on. It was, instead the conditions that were created by establishing Czechoslovakia as a conglomeration of competing minorities who detested and schemed against each other to claim or reclaim lands each demanded for itself. Hitler at most merely took advantage of the situation that could have gone even further out of control had the competing minorities been left to their own devices to fight it out that could easily have resulted in a war involving Hungary, Poland, and the Czech and Slovak states that could easily have drawn in the Soviets

    > Thus it wasn’t Hitler’s scheming and plotting that brought it all on.

    It was indeed Hitler’s scheming which accounted for the specific way and time that the Czechoslovak state broke apart. It’s true that without Hitler’s intervention, there probably would still have occurred an eventual break-up of the Czechoslovak state in, say, 1941 or thereabouts. Such a break-up could have easily been worked out on the international stage, with Britain and France participating along with Germany to establish a neutralized zone in eastern Europe. But that was not Hitler’s goal.

    Hitler envisioned his demands on Czechoslovakia and Poland as part of the drive to the east to conquer living space in Russia and Ukraine. Sitting around for a few years while the Slovaks debated what they wanted to do was not compatible with Hitler’s timetable. He needed to swiftly establish his position on the Czech and Polish reasons in order to promptly move further east.

    For this reason, German officials worked to provoke the crisis of March 9, 1939:

    —–
    Furthermore, Mr. Hencke, German Charge d’ Affaires in Prague, encouraged the Czechs to use a strong hand with respect to Slovakia. On March 9, 1939, he was formally requested by Berlin to “reveal” to the Czech governmental circles a conspiracy being formed in Bratislava which would aim at the proclamation of independence. The Prague government naturally nibbled at the bait… The evening of March 9, 1939, the President of the Republic, Mr. Hacha, proceeded to the dissolution of the Slovak government of Monsignor Tiso…
    —–
    — Joseph Mikus, Slovakia: A Political History 1918-1950, pp. 78-9.

    Once Hacha had dismissed the Tiso government, Hitler proceeded to set down his own terms on Tiso:

    —–
    Now he had permitted Monsignor Tiso to come here in order to make his position clear in a very short time… He would stand by his word as long as Slovakia made it clear that she desired independence. If she hesitated or did not wish to dissolve her connection with Prague, he would leave the destiny of Slovakia to the mercy of events for which he was no longer responsible.

    Hitler then asked Ribbentrop whether he had anything to add, and Ribbentrop repeated that a decision must be made within hours and not days. He showed the Fuehrer a message he had just received which reported Hungarian troop movements to the Slovak frontiers. The Fuehrer read the report, mentioned it to Tiso and expressed the hope that Slovakia would soon make her decision.
    —–
    Ibid, pp. 81-82.

    In this way, Tiso was pressed into declaring independence right then and there. Taylor’s commentary suffers from the weakness of being a glittering generality. Although there is a broad-brush of truth to the idea that Czechoslovakia was likely to come apart in the relatively near future, the way that this occurred was definitely Hitler’s creation.

    It’s a lot like the way that one can say that the Ukrainian territory of Poland in 1939 would likely have split from the country sooner or later, even without the intervention of Joseph Stalin. There was a lot that was contrived and artificial about the eastern borders of 1939 Poland. But obviously, the annexation of these territories into the USSR was not something predestined.

    Another misleading distortion. The Slovakian government did not get up and decide to declare independence. Hitler called the Slovak representatives into his office and threatened that if they did not promptly declare independence and request a protectorate from Germany, then he would back Horthy’s encroachments of Slovakia. Prior to this, when Horthy in 1938 had shown a willingness to come to agreement with Prague, the German government had pressured him away from this.

    —–
    That day, August 22, passed without incident until evening when the Forschungamt, routinely monitoring the Hungarians’ telephone conversations between Kiel and Budapest, reported that at a meeting of foreign ministers of the Little Entente in faraway Bled the Hungarian delegation had apparently formally renounced all use of force against Czechoslovakia; the wiretaps showed that Horthy, Kanya and his prime minister, Bela von Imredy, had retrospectively sanctioned this. This cast a cloud over the entire state visit.

    The secret meetings which began the next day, during a sea trip to Heligoland, were stormy. In the morning Hitler conferred privately with Horthy, while Ribbentrop and Weizsaecker took on Imredy and Kanya. Ribbentrop accused Kanya of stabbing Germany in the back with the Bled agreement, and refused to accept Kanya’s explanations…

    Over the next four weeks, the Nazi pressure on the Slovaks to declare independence increased. Keppler sent his closest associate Dr. Edmund Veesenmayer to Bratislav to tell them to hurry, as ‘otherwise Hungary will get our permission to occupy Slovakia at any time after March 15.’ And when Durcansky and his economics minister visited Goering on February 28, the field marshal sinisterly greeted them with: ‘Now, what’s it to be? When are you going to declare independence, so we don’t have to turn you over to the Hungarians?’ Ribbentrop also received them with a promise to guarantee Slovakia’s frontiers, provided she proclaimed her independence at a time that suited the Fuehrer.
    —–
    — David Irving, The War Path, pp. 125-6, 186, 2013 Focal Point edition.

    The pattern was that first in 1938 Hitler pressured Horthy into dropping any agreements with Czechoslovakia in order to engineer a Hungarian/Slovak confrontation. Then in 1939 he threatened the Slovaks that he would back Hungary unless they declared independence and requested a German protectorate. On both occasions, first the Hungarians and then Slovaks gave in to Hitler’s pressures. But this was not some mere spontaneous declaration of Slovak independence that happened on its own. It was forced through by Hitler as a way of creating pretext for Germany to occupy Czechia and place protectorate status over Slovakia, in order to facilitate the drive to the east which was his central overriding aim.

    That is exactly what he did indeed do. This was why he never raised any heckles over the Crystal Night, even though a lot of people in Britain regarded the event with distaste. But the confrontations over first Czechoslovakia/Sudetenland in 1938 and then Poland/Danzig in 1939 were not mere internal issues of Germany. They were matters of international relations, involving states which Britain had at various times entered into prior agreements. Chamberlain had pressed Benes in 1938 to agree to the Munich Pact, because he did not think that it was worthwhile for Britain to launch a war if Hitler agreed to the Munich terms. But after Hitler had discarded the Munich Agreement, there was no way for Chamberlain to plausibly tell the Poles that they should make a similar agreement over Danzig.

But he would have been perfectly happy if Hitler had simply allowed the remaining Czechoslovak state to deal with its internal differences on its own. There quite probably would have been an eventual separation of Slovakia from Czechia in 1941 or thereabouts, without Hitler's interference. But then the whole thing would have occurred without Germany occupying and imposing a protectorate on Slovakia. In the meantime, Hitler could have raised issues about the status of Danzig and gotten a sympathetic ear in Britain over that. But that was not his agenda. His aim was to swiftly overrun Czechia, force Poland to accept a subordinate status in Germany's drive to the east, and then began taking over living space in Russia and Ukraine. Simply working diplomatically to iron out things in Czechoslovakia and Poland was never his principal goal.

    > The Slovakian government proceeded to vote a declaration of independence from Czechoslovakia on March 14, 1939.

    Another misleading distortion. The Slovakian government did not get up and decide to declare independence. Hitler called the Slovak representatives into his office and threatened that if they did not promptly declare independence and request a protectorate from Germany, then he would back Horthy's encroachments of Slovakia. Prior to this, when Horthy in 1938 had shown a willingness to come to agreement with Prague, the German government had pressured him away from this.

    -----
    That day, August 22, passed without incident until evening when the Forschungamt, routinely monitoring the Hungarians' telephone conversations between Kiel and Budapest, reported that at a meeting of foreign ministers of the Little Entente in faraway Bled the Hungarian delegation had apparently formally renounced all use of force against Czechoslovakia; the wiretaps showed that Horthy, Kanya and his prime minister, Bela von Imredy, had retrospectively sanctioned this. This cast a cloud over the entire state visit.

    The secret meetings which began the next day, during a sea trip to Heligoland, were stormy. In the morning Hitler conferred privately with Horthy, while Ribbentrop and Weizsaecker took on Imredy and Kanya. Ribbentrop accused Kanya of stabbing Germany in the back with the Bled agreement, and refused to accept Kanya's explanations...

    Over the next four weeks, the Nazi pressure on the Slovaks to declare independence increased. Keppler sent his closest associate Dr. Edmund Veesenmayer to Bratislav to tell them to hurry, as 'otherwise Hungary will get our permission to occupy Slovakia at any time after March 15.' And when Durcansky and his economics minister visited Goering on February 28, the field marshal sinisterly greeted them with: 'Now, what's it to be? When are you going to declare independence, so we don't have to turn you over to the Hungarians?' Ribbentrop also received them with a promise to guarantee Slovakia's frontiers, provided she proclaimed her independence at a time that suited the Fuehrer.
    -----
    -- David Irving, The War Path, pp. 125-6, 186, 2013 Focal Point edition.

    The pattern was that first in 1938 Hitler pressured Horthy into dropping any agreements with Czechoslovakia in order to engineer a Hungarian/Slovak confrontation. Then in 1939 he threatened the Slovaks that he would back Hungary unless they declared independence and requested a German protectorate. On both occasions, first the Hungarians and then Slovaks gave in to Hitler's pressures. But this was not some mere spontaneous declaration of Slovak independence that happened on its own. It was forced through by Hitler as a way of creating pretext for Germany to occupy Czechia and place protectorate status over Slovakia, in order to facilitate the drive to the east which was his central overriding aim.

    That is exactly what he did indeed do. This was why he never raised any heckles over the Crystal Night, even though a lot of people in Britain regarded the event with distaste. But the confrontations over first Czechoslovakia/Sudetenland in 1938 and then Poland/Danzig in 1939 were not mere internal issues of Germany. They were matters of international relations, involving states which Britain had at various times entered into prior agreements. Chamberlain had pressed Benes in 1938 to agree to the Munich Pact, because he did not think that it was worthwhile for Britain to launch a war if Hitler agreed to the Munich terms. But after Hitler had discarded the Munich Agreement, there was no way for Chamberlain to plausibly tell the Poles that they should make a similar agreement over Danzig.

    There’s nothing out of context about the fact that Hitler’s ambitions for living space meant that he was aiming to thrust aside any kind of national borders wherever it suited him.
    �
    Who thrusted aside any kind of national borders to create Czechoslovakia, and include the Sudetenland and Bohemia/Moravia therein?

    And the Kings of all Thrusters (have you seen them going “at it†at that old, crumbly wall?), who eventually thrusted their way into the Holy Land, did they thrust aside any borders in Palestine? Did they do it to suit themselves? Were Jews proclaiming the need for Jewish lebensraum?

    Chamberlain and Churchill were English, were they not? Should I bother to suggest the English did quite a bit of border thrusting themselves?

    Any border thrusting in the Rhineland? First the Franks…..back and forth…I can’t say for certain if it was occupied by France after WW1, but Germany had no authority therein, so maybe symbolic border thrusting is the appropriate term.

    It is also a known fact that Hitler was planning on thrusting borders in South America, and I know this to be true because FDR said it was so:

    32nd President of the United States: 1933 †1945
    Radio Address Announcing an Unlimited National Emergency.
    May 27, 1941
    I AM SPEAKING tonight from the White House in the presence of the Governing Board of the Pan American Union, the Canadian Minister, and their families. […]
    The first and fundamental fact is that what started as a European war has developed, as the Nazis always intended it should develop, into a world war for world domination.
    Adolf Hitler never considered the domination of Europe as an end in itself. European conquest was but a step toward ultimate goals in all the other continents. It is unmistakably apparent to all of us that, unless the advance of Hitlerism is forcibly checked now, the Western Hemisphere will be within range of the Nazi weapons of destruction. […]
    And in March, 1941, the Congress passed the Lend-Lease Bill and an appropriation of seven billion dollars to implement it. This law realistically provided for material aid "for the government of any country whose defense the President deems vital to the defense of the United States."

    (I must interrupt here; wasn’t this Lend-Lease for the primary benefit of the Soviets? Exactly when did Churchill realize we were funding an Iron Curtain? Any border thrusting by the Soviets?)

    […] They would fasten an economic stranglehold upon our several Nations. Quislings would be found to subvert the governments in our Republics; and the Nazis would back their fifth columns with invasion, if necessary.

    No, I am not speculating about all this. I merely repeat what is already in the Nazi book of world conquest. They plan to treat the Latin American Nations as they are now treating the Balkans. They plan then to strangle the United States of America and the Dominion of Canada.

    About Czechoslovakia….3 million Germans therein. Here’s a few bits and pieces usually left out of the accusations on Hitler’s lebensraum mania:

    Following the Munich Agreement of 1938, Slovakia lost its southern territories to neighbouring Hungary but gained greater autonomy within Czechoslovakia.

    From Kafkadesk:

    The independence of Czechoslovakia was officially proclaimed in 1918, following the collapse of the German and Austro-Hungarian empires at the end of World War I. The ensuing treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain-en-Laye officially defined the borders of the new state, which incorporated the German-speaking territories of Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia.

    The Sudetenland
    Due to the new country’s centralized political structure, nationalism soon arose in the non-Czech nationalities, and several parties and movements were formed with the aim of fighting for broader political autonomy, with ethnic Germans and Hungarians openly agitating against the territorial settlements.
    By 1933, encouraged by the newly founded Sudeten German Party, led by Konrad Henlein and financed by Nazi Germany, the particularly large German minority living in the Sudetenland region, which ranges across western Bohemia and northern Moravia, started demanding autonomy from Czechoslovakia, claiming they were oppressed by the national government.

    A deal was quickly reached and at about 1:30 a.m. on September 30, 1938, Adolf Hitler, Neville Chamberlain, Benito Mussolini, and Édouard Daladier signed the so-called Munich Agreement, which stipulated that the German army was to complete the occupation of the Sudetenland by October 10, and an international commission would decide the future of other disputed areas.

    TttT: (So-called Munich Agreement? Like the so-called Versailles Treaty? Where were the other disputed areas?)

    Known as the “Munich Betrayal†or the “Munich Diktat†among Czechs and Slovaks, the Munich Agreement was soon followed by the First Vienna Award, which awarded Hungary Czechoslovakia’s largely Magyar-populated territories in southern Slovakia and southern Carpathian Ruthenia.
    Chamberlain’s appeasement policies were ultimately discredited the following year when, in March 1939, Slovakia declared its independence from Czechoslovakia to side with Nazi Germany and Adolf Hitler annexed the remainder of Czechoslovakia.
    World War II broke out the following September and, although it did buy time for the Allies to increase their military preparedness, the Munich Agreement quickly became a byword for the futility of appeasing expansionist totalitarian states.
    After World War II the Sudetenland was restored to Czechoslovakia, which expelled most of the German inhabitants and repopulated the area with Czechs.

    McNally: If you’re not Adolf Hitler, you CAN expel troublemakers from your country, even if those troublemakers had an actual historical claim to the territory and were responsible for the successful industry therein, and even if the troublemaker’s territory had been previously lost via an illegitimate treaty.

    Braveheart Narrator: “An oath to a liar is no oath at all.†Unless you’re Adolf Hitler…..you know the thing…

    I read over the Munich Pact. I didn’t see the promise to refrain from the annexation of additional former German territories by plebiscite or otherwise, nor did I see an agreement to refrain from thwarting Soviet/Bolshevik expansion.

    The difference between US Army and Wehrmacht during World War II is that US Army tried to punish those crimes (as much as possible) while Wehrmacht (Germans generally) promoted such crimes as normal thing.

    Unfortunatelly, modern US Army is very similar to Wehrmacht in contrary to US Army from 1945.

    "What does you babbling have to do with the price of tea in China, or the third stanza of the German national anthem??? "

    I think, that your innovative approach to describing nation's character by analyzing its anthem deserves name "HdC Stanza Standard Analysis".

    You are really big scientist.

    Each theory should be checked so now we check your theory.

    You claim that Germans are freedom-loving-people because they have "Freedom" in 3rd stanza of their anthem (why not in first stanza?).
    Ok. Let's assume it is true. :)

    The British don't have word "Freedom" in their anthem so they aren't freedom-loving-people. Well, it's true, they love money more than freedom.

    The Canadians don't have word "Freedom" in their anthem so they aren't freedom-loving-people. Well, it's true taking into consideration how easily they were pacified during Covid plandemia or that they recently celebrated Nazi-Ukrainian in Canadian Parliament*.

    So your method works 2 times already. Congratulations. Keep doing your reaserch Mr. @HdC.

    By the way, the US Army committed war crimes in Vietnam, Korea, WWII, Iraq and whatever war it fought.

    Did any US soldier refuse to follow the myriad unlawful orders given that were war crimes?

    I am not aware of any.

    So they must have acted just like every German soldier when they were given orders that the victors deemed to be illegal.

    “By the way, the US Army committed war crimes in Vietnam, Korea, WWII, Iraq and whatever war it fought.”

    It’s all about proportions.

    Probably each army has committed a crimes because each army have has a some percentage of sadists and psychopaths.

    The difference between US Army and Wehrmacht during World War II is that US Army tried to punish those crimes (as much as possible) while Wehrmacht (Germans generally) promoted such crimes as normal thing.

    Unfortunatelly, modern US Army is very similar to Wehrmacht in contrary to US Army from 1945.
    I mean, US Army today has mentality of Wehrmacht- every crime is accepted and covered if it serves their masters.

    "For how many centuries was Poland the location of the largest number of Jews in the world?"

    I'm sorry, but I don't understand what have in common fact that Westerners allowed Jews to take total control over Western Europe in the last 200-150 years with poor Jews from Central and Eastern Europe?

    "It was not until those “obedience-loving†Germans took on the task of removing Jews from Poland (...)"

    Germans also wanted to remove Poles to make Lebensraum. You know, it made Poles a little angry.

    "Seems to me a Thank You, Hitler and Wehrmacht, is in order."

    Sure. Poles should praise Hitler and Stalin that their "team-work" finally removed from Poland two main foes of Poles - Germans and Jews at a promotional cost of losing 30% of population of Poland and huge border change.

    Christianity has no such commandments. The Talmud specifically says, Jews are to treat Jews equitably, but lies may be told to gentiles, property may be stolen, gentiles are cattle, etc.; the Hadith also proclaims infidels may be treated poorly, i.e. -

    “But whoever refuses [to pay jizya] will see nothing from us but the edge of a spear. The men will be killed and the children will be enslaved, and their wealth will be taken as booty. This is the judgment of Allah and His Messenger.

    When the Islamic State invaded ancient Christian regions around the Ninevah Plain last June, it again declared: "We offer them [Assyrian Christians] three choices: Islam; the dhimma contract—involving payment of jizya; if they refuse this they will have nothing but the sword."


    Aren’t polish people westerners? Are you ethnically polish? Maybe Slavs are different from westerners, after all.

    Who exploited “Soviet countries†in the first place? The Soviets?

    The Jewish March is obscured from many people. Laws are on the books in many places to prevent anyone thwarting the Jewish March. Hitler warned the world about it, but no one listened.

    Little Black fufu, you go ahead and rub your hands together, as you await the fall of the western world. It won’t be paradise - it will be a hellscape, more similar to Rhodesia or South Africa, or maybe Malmo. Detroit. Baltimore.

    The truth is, if Hitler had won, Europe would be heavily comprised of Germans, and therefore very few little black/brown jackrabbits would be hopping around, ruining the lives of everyone stupid enough to believe the things you believe, or foolish enough to fail to heed the warnings about Jewish perfidy, and the negrofication of society. It seems to me, Islam and negroes are the brooms of Israel.

    I understand Poland is desperately trying to retain its status as Righteous Amongst Nations, but in order to hang on to this endorsement, you can’t refuse to accept blame for the “Holocaust,†and you gotta start using Israel’s broom.

    “Christianity has no such commandments. “

    Christianity (like Islam and Judaism) says that its believers are above others and therefore they have right to abuse and subdue other people (I suppose you know history of Christianity).
    All three abrahamic religions are very aggressive and expansive.

    “Aren’t polish people westerners? “

    Yes, but they are third-rate Westerners from point of view real Westerners (USA, GB, France, Germany etc).
    It’s funny that (real) Westerners have no problems to exploit their (alleged) brothers from Central Europe.

    “Little Black fufu, you go ahead and rub your hands together, as you await the fall of the western world.It won’t be paradise – it will be a hellscape, more similar to Rhodesia or South Africa, or maybe Malmo. Detroit. Baltimore. “

    It’s not my problem. I don’t live there. It’s problem of Westerners. Fall of West is an opportunity to regain real independence just like fall of West in 1918 had allowed to free countries of Central and Southern Europe.

    “The truth is, if Hitler had won, Europe would be heavily comprised of Germans,(…)

    …because Germans would have killed 50-80% of Slavs. You see? Even for you German’s lives are more important than Slavic lives because subconsciously you treat Germans as REAL Westerners and Slavs are only a people somewhere in Europe.

    Fortunately, in Slavic world uncritical worshiping of Western culture is slowly diminishing.

    "German poets like Goethe and Schiller are world renowned."

    If something is world wide known it doesn't necessary mean it is masterpiece or genius.
    American pop-culture is known everywhere but it doesn't mean it is high culture, it's average culture.

    In contrary to you, many years ago, I read some fragments of Shakespeare and a few German poems (in translation).
    Maybe it was a fault of translation or limited set of works I've read but I must say that ... I wasn't impressed.
    They seem to represent the same level of genius like Kochanowski, Mickiewicz, SÅ‚owacki.

    "And the slogans you cite are slogans in every culture."

    Do Germans really have equivalent of Polish "we fight for freedom our and yours"? Can you cite it?

    I will try to be more precise.

    1. Every culture has slogans.
    2. Different cultures have different slogans.

    Slogans in Poland are very different than slogans in Germany. That's why Poles and Germans are different people.

    I repeat:

    While Poles are obsessed with freedom, Germans are obsessed with obedience.

    "Christianity has no such commandments. "

    Christianity (like Islam and Judaism) says that its believers are above others and therefore they have right to abuse and subdue other people (I suppose you know history of Christianity).
    All three abrahamic religions are very aggressive and expansive.

    "Aren’t polish people westerners? "

    Yes, but they are third-rate Westerners from point of view real Westerners (USA, GB, France, Germany etc).
    It's funny that (real) Westerners have no problems to exploit their (alleged) brothers from Central Europe.

    "Little Black fufu, you go ahead and rub your hands together, as you await the fall of the western world.It won’t be paradise – it will be a hellscape, more similar to Rhodesia or South Africa, or maybe Malmo. Detroit. Baltimore. "

    It's not my problem. I don't live there. It's problem of Westerners. Fall of West is an opportunity to regain real independence just like fall of West in 1918 had allowed to free countries of Central and Southern Europe.

    "The truth is, if Hitler had won, Europe would be heavily comprised of Germans,(...)

    ...because Germans would have killed 50-80% of Slavs. You see? Even for you German's lives are more important than Slavic lives because subconsciously you treat Germans as REAL Westerners and Slavs are only a people somewhere in Europe.

    Fortunately, in Slavic world uncritical worshiping of Western culture is slowly diminishing.

    " We’ll see what happens."

    We will see.

    Ok, fufu. You win.

    I never said, Polish people had no right to defend their interests, or their country.

    To my knowledge, it is only the Jewish and Islamic codes that have commandments to lie and/or treat others poorly, to the benefit of their own insular group. Regarding those two ancient groups, who evolved from the same region, I have read, Islam is the broom of Israel.

    A young French woman, raped and tortured by an African man recently, is in a coma; she may die - she will probably be disabled for life and unable to bear children; young girls and boys are gang-raped in Germany; they are molested at their community swimming pools; there are gang-rape groups in England, acid and knife attacks are becoming routine; there are no-go zones all over Europe and America. It’s not Polish people, nor German people, terrorizing innocent citizens. These disparate, violent, people were brought in for a reason.

    It is clear to me, in general, the citizens of every country on this earth, suffer for the perfidy of their leaders. If you go to war, often by conscription, you must “hate†your enemy. After witnessing your comrades die or maimed in battle, I imagine that hate comes easily. Still, many soldiers return and wonder why all the killing was necessary, as average citizens still suffer, and only elites reap the benefits or resulting profits. War profiteering is real; Jewish groups seem to always reap the benefits. Whatever you may think about Hitler, his entire nation benefited for his policies prior to WW2, and that was his crime. He did seek diplomatic solutions to territory disputes, whether you accept it or not.

    Israel was the prize of WW1 and WW2. Americans, Germans and Poles died for it. Americans are dying still.

    You keep Poland polish. That’s my advice.

    You forgot about Christianity.

    “It is clear to me, in general, the citizens of every country on this earth, suffer for the perfidy of their leaders. “

    Westerners democratically have elected psychopats for decades in exchange for comfort life.
    Westerners also have no scruples to harshly exploit post-Soviet countries.
    Westerners have done almost nothing to stop “Jewish march” to power in western countries in last decades.
    Westerners are doing nothing to regain power from Jewish hands.

    Blame Westerners. They got what they had deserved.

    “Whatever you may think about Hitler, his entire nation benefited for his policies prior to WW2, and that was his crime. “

    Yes, Germans benefited from his policie but you must remember that Hitler sustained German prosperity grabbing, using resources and people from other countries as slaves.
    Otherwise Reich would have became bankrupt.

    Christianity has no such commandments. The Talmud specifically says, Jews are to treat Jews equitably, but lies may be told to gentiles, property may be stolen, gentiles are cattle, etc.; the Hadith also proclaims infidels may be treated poorly, i.e. -

    “But whoever refuses [to pay jizya] will see nothing from us but the edge of a spear. The men will be killed and the children will be enslaved, and their wealth will be taken as booty. This is the judgment of Allah and His Messenger.

    When the Islamic State invaded ancient Christian regions around the Ninevah Plain last June, it again declared: "We offer them [Assyrian Christians] three choices: Islam; the dhimma contract—involving payment of jizya; if they refuse this they will have nothing but the sword."


    Aren’t polish people westerners? Are you ethnically polish? Maybe Slavs are different from westerners, after all.

    Who exploited “Soviet countries†in the first place? The Soviets?

    The Jewish March is obscured from many people. Laws are on the books in many places to prevent anyone thwarting the Jewish March. Hitler warned the world about it, but no one listened.

    Little Black fufu, you go ahead and rub your hands together, as you await the fall of the western world. It won’t be paradise - it will be a hellscape, more similar to Rhodesia or South Africa, or maybe Malmo. Detroit. Baltimore.

    The truth is, if Hitler had won, Europe would be heavily comprised of Germans, and therefore very few little black/brown jackrabbits would be hopping around, ruining the lives of everyone stupid enough to believe the things you believe, or foolish enough to fail to heed the warnings about Jewish perfidy, and the negrofication of society. It seems to me, Islam and negroes are the brooms of Israel.

    I understand Poland is desperately trying to retain its status as Righteous Amongst Nations, but in order to hang on to this endorsement, you can’t refuse to accept blame for the “Holocaust,†and you gotta start using Israel’s broom. We’ll see what happens. If you Slavs are as dreadful as many claim, maybe you stand a chance, but do rid yourself of those jackrabbits.

    Of course, many Jews joined the Soviets. Of course, they denounced Poland and Polish people, who, I have no doubt, were much more tolerant of Jews than what Jews proclaim. They behave the same everywhere. I just listened to the testimony of a Hungarian Jewish woman, who said - the Soviets arrived to Budapest and made life miserable (worse than during the war); she went to live with her father in the countryside, and he was living with Russian soldiers; eventually, she escaped Budapest to live at a ski resort in Austria, then on to her father’s house in Vienna (he also escaped Hungary) - they had a chauffeur in Vienna, they dined in restaurants daily. How was the average Polish person living in 1947- 1948?

    bun bun, I don’t think I dodge your questions. Of course, I understand animosity towards Germans, considering the war, the occupation, etc., but I am suggesting that things weren’t as they seemed. I believe Hitler was right about the unjust war, WW1, and Germany was illegally punished and threatened into the Versailles treaty; I also believe he wanted peaceful solutions, but he did say, war was possible, if diplomacy failed. The primary difference between Hitler and every other western leader, i.e., Churchill, FDR, is Hitler told the truth, always, about what he believed and what he would do; everyone else lied, lied, lied, and betrayed their own people.

    Look around, Little Bunny fufu. The world we live in now is exactly as Hitler described, and Israel is a haven for Jewish criminals. Jews control banks, hedge funds, media, publishing, national governments, etc. Have you seen that ghoul, Yuval Noah Harari, telling everyone how the world is going to be, and how we need changes in society to promote “equality.†Do you want equality with the migrants from Africa and the Middle East? How will that equilibrium be achieved? It can ONLY be achieved by lower standards for all. All, except a few “you-know-whos.â€

    "I have learned quite a bit about Polish history since debating with you, (...)"

    I've noticed that and I have appreciated that because history of Central, Souther and Eastern Europe (except Russia) is almost unknown in mainstream of Western Europe.

    "Weren’t the Teutonic Knights fighting paganism? I know they were Germanic, and I’m not saying they were correct to attack pagans, but religious wars never cease to occur."

    What you have against paganism? Do you know that Christianity (religion of slaves) invented religious wars, which were not known in pagan times?
    Did you know that first defender of pagans was a Polish diplomat Paweł Włodkowic in XV century?

    " So, it was not necessarily a German vs. Pole ethnic battle."

    That's right, it was battle of mentatliies. It was battle between Byzantine culture (Germany) and egalitarian culture (Poland), it was a battle between slaves (Germans) and freemen (Poland).
    Poles are freeman, Germans are a slaves

    "Little Bunny, I am telling you, Germans and Poles have more in common than not, especially these days. "

    No, definitely it's not. Poles are freemen while Germans are slave mentality people.
    You are terrible mistaken.

    " I think Hitler preferred cooperation with Slavic countries. "

    I think your thinking is wrong. Killing 50-80% of Slav (Generalplan Ost)* is not "cooperation" with Slavs.

    You live in your WonderHitlerland but it doesn't change facts that Germans were beasts during World War II.
    Gremans murdered innocent children and women only because they were from "under rasa".

    "On a sweltering summer day, July 10, 1941, hundreds of Jews were murdered by their Polish neighbors in the village of Jedwabne, almost 100 miles northeast of Warsaw. "

    Jedwabe is a part of Holcaust Industry and Jewish propaganda. It is exaggerated in order to blame Poles for antisemitism. It will make a groud to require reparations from Poles for alleged "antisemitism".

Of course, I understand animosity towards Germans, considering the war, the occupation, etc., but I am suggesting that things weren’t as they seemed. I believe Hitler was right about the unjust war, WW1, and Germany was illegally punished and threatened into the Versailles treaty; I also believe he wanted peaceful solutions, but he did say, war was possible, if diplomacy failed. The primary difference between Hitler and every other western leader, i.e., Churchill, FDR, is Hitler told the truth, always, about what he believed and what he would do; everyone else lied, lied, lied, and betrayed their own people.

    Look around, Little Bunny fufu. The world we live in now is exactly as Hitler described, and Israel is a haven for Jewish criminals. Jews control banks, hedge funds, media, publishing, national governments, etc. Have you seen that ghoul, Yuval Noah Harari, telling everyone how the world is going to be, and how we need changes in society to promote “equality.†Do you want equality with the migrants from Africa and the Middle East? How will that equilibrium be achieved? It can ONLY be achieved by lower standards for all. All, except a few “you-know-whos.â€

    Just think about it, my Little Bunny.

    "Of course, there are cultural differences, but from an outsider’s perspective, an American with German ancestry, whose grandmother was a German from Poland, we are more similar than different. "

    Germans are like Jews - they have superiority complex, they have "master-slave" culture ("be master or be a slave").

    "[Hitler] He wanted Danzig back in the German fold, and he wanted the corridor. "

    The Corridor was also vital to Polish export via Gdynia port. Why Poles should place German interest above Polish interest?

    "I believe Hitler was right about the unjust war,(...)"

    Sure. Killing 50-80% of Slavs to make Lebensraum for Germans is good.

    You can prove that I'm wrong about German slave mentailty by finding equivalents in German language some slogans from Polish culture: “we fight for our freedom and yoursâ€, “freemen with freeman, equal men with equal menâ€, “Poland, firt to fightâ€,
    “it’s better to be hungry but free, than live as a rich slaveâ€, “nothing about us without usâ€, “we don’t ask for freedom, we fight for itâ€.

    My Little Bunny fufu,

    I have learned quite a bit about Polish history since debating with you, and thanks again for fighting the Mongols. Having said that, I still think Poles should have bees in their bonnets over the Russians bringing Mongolian soldiers into Eastern Europe. I’m just saying…..

    Weren’t the Teutonic Knights fighting paganism? I know they were Germanic, and I’m not saying they were correct to attack pagans, but religious wars never cease to occur. Nearly every group of people fight over it at some point. So, it was not necessarily a German vs. Pole ethnic battle.

    I found this information the other day:

    From ForeignPolicy.com:

    MARCH 21, 2023, 11:16 AM
    On a sweltering summer day, July 10, 1941, hundreds of Jews were murdered by their Polish neighbors in the village of Jedwabne, almost 100 miles northeast of Warsaw. Babies were killed. Men were tortured. Women were raped. A young girl was decapitated and her head used as a soccer ball.
    Villagers whose lives had not been extinguished with axes, clubs, and knives were rounded up and taken first to the market square and then to the outskirts of town, where they were herded into a barn. The wooden structure was doused with kerosene and set alight. Women, children, and men were burned alive as the jeering crowd watched. Their cries of agony reverberated throughout the village. Looting of the victims’ homes followed as peasants from neighboring villages showed up to take part in the plunder.
    A monument erected near the barn where the Jews were immolated blamed Poland’s Nazi occupiers for the pogrom. Townspeople walked by the plaque for decades, knowing that it was a lie. Sixty years later, Polish Jewish historian Jan Gross’s Neighbors: The Destruction of the Jewish Community in Jedwabne, Poland uncovered the truth, drawing on documents long buried in archives and interviews with survivors: The massacre was perpetrated by the local villagers rather than their German occupiers. Similar massacres were reported from nearby towns, including Radzilow, Szczuczyn and Wasocz.
    …………………………………………………………………………….

    I don’t bring this up to castigate Poland. But, things just are not always as they seem, and that’s often true on both sides of one issue. One thing is always consistent though; the Jews are eventually targeted for expulsion by nearly everyone in the communities in which they reside, regardless of nationality, and throughout history, with nearly the exact accusations of perfidy claimed all around. Did Jews assist a Swedish invasion of Poland? Did they assist the Moors into Spain? Did they support the Bolsheviks? Does George Soros fund immigration into America and Europe. Yes, yes, yes, and yes. It’s the same pattern, evident today.

    Regarding mass graves, the skeletal remains can be approximately dated, but unless DNA tests are done, how can we know who is buried? With two world wars, and multiple conflicts before and after, I suspect there are mass graves everywhere. If you are interested, you can view Hellstorm: The Death of Nazi Germany on video on Odysee. I suspect there are mass German graves all over the place, courtesy of Bolshevik/Soviet soldiers, who also murdered Polish citizens, as well.

    Little Bunny, I am telling you, Germans and Poles have more in common than not, especially these days. With centuries of immigration throughout your territory, there is just no way German ethnicity is not carried, to some extent, by many Poles. I don’t care what the anti-Hitlerites say, I think Hitler preferred cooperation with Slavic countries. I listened to many speeches and read his writings, and whilst singing the praises of Germans, he did disparage other peoples, but that doesn’t equate to wanting to eliminate other nations. He was ultimately backed into a corner, and came out swinging, to put it mildly. I don’t think he ever said Polish people, as a group, would ruin Europe. The Jews, however…..

    Actually, I have nothing against paganism. I am very much aware of the pagan traditions and rituals that were “adopted†for Christian rituals, i.e., the Yule Tree, celebration of the winter solstice, aka Christmas, Santa Claus…..I have listened to talks by many Nordic scholars, who castigate Charlemagne for spreading Christianity. I see their point.

    From my understanding and observations, Hitler did not intend conflict with Poland from the outset. He wanted Danzig back in the German fold, and he wanted the corridor. He did offer complete, unencumbered access by Poland, and the construction of a highway, also accessible to Poland. These offers indicate a desire for cooperation. I understand that Poles didn’t want to go along, however there were a few who wanted to ally with Germany. I think other forces agitated within Poland, and from without, to refute his offers. If/when war is declared, atrocities often occur. I’m not saying, Oh, Well! But, that’s the sad reality, and everyone is guilty of it.

    Little Bunny, I meant to comment previously on the official story about the young girl’s head used as a soccer ball, but I was concerned about rambling….I don’t really believe that aspect of the story. I understand the “pack mentality†of angry crowds, etc., but that story reeks of the myriad of other Jewish exaggerations, i.e., ripping babies to pieces, throwing living children into fire pits, electric floors….you don’t have to convince me Jews tell outrageous lies. I don’t believe average Polish people would behave in that manner.

    Of course, many Jews joined the Soviets. Of course, they denounced Poland and Polish people, who, I have no doubt, were much more tolerant of Jews than what Jews proclaim. They behave the same everywhere. I just listened to the testimony of a Hungarian Jewish woman, who said - the Soviets arrived to Budapest and made life miserable (worse than during the war); she went to live with her father in the countryside, and he was living with Russian soldiers; eventually, she escaped Budapest to live at a ski resort in Austria, then on to her father’s house in Vienna (he also escaped Hungary) - they had a chauffeur in Vienna, they dined in restaurants daily. How was the average Polish person living in 1947- 1948?

    "Can I answer, Little Bunny fufu?"

    Me, Little Bunny fufu happily grant you this privilage. :)

    It's where the normal discussion starts. Now we are talking.

    "1. Yes."

    I'm happy that finally someone directly answered my simple question:
    "1) Do you agree that other (than German) nations have right to self-defence including preemptive attack ?"

    "2. It’s not an eternal German territory. But, Germans have historically resided therein:"

    Germans were always a minority. 10% is probably overestimation. 90% were Poles.

    "Germans played a special role in the history of Gdansk. Starting from the second half of the 14th century and all the way to 1946, they constituted the majority of the city’s residents."

    Correct.
    I think, that nobody disagrees with fact that Gdańsk (Danzig) after slaughering Slavic population in 1308*, was a mainly German-speaking city.
    But many people forgot that German speaking population of Gdańsk (Danzig) was very loyal to Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in XV-XVIII centuries and Gdańsk (Danzig) fought against German-speaking Teutonic Order and Prussia.
    I.e. Gdańsk (Danzig) started and financed war to join Poland.

    "3. It is acknowledged, through multiple sources, that Germans were targeted by Polish citizens. You can find this information if you look for it. "

    Please provide references.

    In September 1939 area with German minority in Poland was conquered by Wehrmacht in 7 days so there was no time for alleged mass killing of Germans by Poles.

    There were anit-German attitudes in pre-war Poland but the context is that:

    Poland in 1918 was a poor country after 123 years of exploitation by Germans (Prussians and Austrians) and Russians.
    Poland was also demolished by First World War.
    It is no wonder that there were many economical and national tensions (Poles-Germans, Poles-Ruthenians/Ukrainians, Poles-Jews etc.).

    "4. Germany invaded Poland; no one denies this. The Soviets invaded also. As I said before, Little Bunny, the Swedes and Russians seem to have been more destructive to Poland throughout history."

    It's old times.

    "To me, Poland looks similar to Germany, (...)"

    No, definitely it's not. Poles and Germans have different mentalities (just like Poles and modern Russians have different mentalities).

    While Poles are obsessed with freedom, Germans are obsessed with obedience.

    For example, some slogans from Polish culture: "we fight for our freedom and yours"**, "freemen with freeman, equal men with equal men"***, "Poland, firt to fight",
    "it's better to be hungry but free, than live as a rich slave"****, "nothing about us without us"*****, "we don't ask for freedom, we fight for it"
    .

    Find equivalents in German language.

    "Polish people are nearly indistinguishable from Germans, when you live amongst both in America."

    You will see difference between Poles and Germans in time of trouble. In peace time everybody looks the same.

    Can I answer, Little Bunny fufu?

    1. Yes.

    2. It’s not an eternal German territory. But, Germans have historically resided therein:

    In about 1249, Duke Przemysł I began constructing what would become the Royal Castle on a hill on the left bank of the Warta. Then in 1253, Przemysł issued a charter to Thomas of Guben (Gubin) for the founding of a town under Magdeburg law, between the castle and the river. Thomas brought a large number of German settlers to aid in the building and settlement of the city – this is an example of the German eastern migration (Ostsiedlung) characteristic of that period….. In the second half of the 17th century and most of the 18th, Poznań was severely affected by a series of wars, attendant military occupations, lootings and destruction …. During the Deluge, Poznań’s Jewish community was accused of collaborating with the invading Swedish enemy….. It was also hit by frequent outbreaks of plague, and by floods, particularly that of 1736, which destroyed most of the suburban buildings. The population of the conurbation declined from 20,000 around 1600 to 6,000 around 1730, and *Bambergian and Dutch settlers (Bambers and Olęders) were brought in to rebuild the devastated suburbs. In 1778, a "Committee of Good Order" (Komisja Dobrego Porządku) was established in the city, which oversaw rebuilding efforts and reorganized the city's administration. However, in 1793, in the Second Partition of Poland, Poznań came under the control of the Kingdom of Prussia, becoming part of (and initially the seat of) the province of South Prussia….. It would become part of the German Empire with the unification of German states in 1871…… Poznań was captured by the Red Army, assisted by Polish volunteers, on 23 February 1945 following the Battle of Poznań, in which the German army conducted a last-ditch defense in line with Hitler's designation of the city as a Festung. The Citadel was the last point to be taken, and the fighting left much of the city, particularly the Old Town, in ruins……..

    *Germans.

    Back to Danzig/Gdańsk: (from VisitGdansk)
    Germans played a special role in the history of Gdansk. Starting from the second half of the 14th century and all the way to 1946, they constituted the majority of the city’s residents. A description from 1659 reads: “The number of Germans is greater than the remaining nations, followed by Poles, thus, the two languages, German and Polish, are in use hereâ€â€¦.. Out of the 1000 years of its existence, the city belonged to the Teutonic Order for 146 years, to Prussia and the German Reich for 126, and was formally a free city for 26. In total, this adds up to 298 years. For the remaining 700, the city had close ties to Poland. Gdansk Germans were regular citizens of pre-partition Poland. Coming of age, they would swear an oath of loyalty to the Polish King – in German – and would keep their vows in times of danger – one could say they would do this the German way: diligently and fairly. Examples of this include Poland’s wars against Sweden and the year 1734, when they fought bravely to protect King Stanislaw Leszczynski from the Russian army laying siege to the city.

    3. It is acknowledged, through multiple sources, that Germans were targeted by Polish citizens. You can find this information if you look for it. Poland did invade Czechoslovakia in 1938; so, they went after Czechs, but not Germans? Regarding mass graves, how could we find them? Jews claim hundreds of thousands of inmates were shot and buried in mass graves all over Poland. However, as far as I know, these graves have never been found, and much of the territory is under government use and/or was developed, and the polish government does not permit excavation. However, Russia has acknowledged the massacre at Katyn Forest. They blamed the Germans for years.

    4. Germany invaded Poland; no one denies this. The Soviets invaded also. As I said before, Little Bunny, the Swedes and Russians seem to have been more destructive to Poland throughout history. To me, Poland looks similar to Germany, and like it or not, Germans and Poles are inextricably linked. Polish people are nearly indistinguishable from Germans, when you live amongst both in America. Good and bad conduct notwithstanding, European people have much in common. I would gladly take a horde of Poles over the hordes invading America and Europe today. Ask Paris, London or Malmo if they agree.

    “Can I answer, Little Bunny fufu?”

    Me, Little Bunny fufu happily grant you this privilage. 🙂

    It’s where the normal discussion starts. Now we are talking.

    “1. Yes.”

    I’m happy that finally someone directly answered my simple question:
    “1) Do you agree that other (than German) nations have right to self-defence including preemptive attack ?”

    “2. It’s not an eternal German territory. But, Germans have historically resided therein:”

    Germans were always a minority. 10% is probably overestimation. 90% were Poles.

    “Germans played a special role in the history of Gdansk. Starting from the second half of the 14th century and all the way to 1946, they constituted the majority of the city’s residents.”

    Correct.
    I think, that nobody disagrees with fact that Gdańsk (Danzig) after slaughering Slavic population in 1308*, was a mainly German-speaking city.
    But many people forgot that German speaking population of Gdańsk (Danzig) was very loyal to Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in XV-XVIII centuries and Gdańsk (Danzig) fought against German-speaking Teutonic Order and Prussia.
    I.e. Gdańsk (Danzig) started and financed war to join Poland.

    “3. It is acknowledged, through multiple sources, that Germans were targeted by Polish citizens. You can find this information if you look for it. “

    Please provide references.

    In September 1939 area with German minority in Poland was conquered by Wehrmacht in 7 days so there was no time for alleged mass killing of Germans by Poles.

    There were anit-German attitudes in pre-war Poland but the context is that:

    Poland in 1918 was a poor country after 123 years of exploitation by Germans (Prussians and Austrians) and Russians.
    Poland was also demolished by First World War.
    It is no wonder that there were many economical and national tensions (Poles-Germans, Poles-Ruthenians/Ukrainians, Poles-Jews etc.).

    “4. Germany invaded Poland; no one denies this. The Soviets invaded also. As I said before, Little Bunny, the Swedes and Russians seem to have been more destructive to Poland throughout history.”

    It’s old times.

    “To me, Poland looks similar to Germany, (…)”

    No, definitely it’s not. Poles and Germans have different mentalities (just like Poles and modern Russians have different mentalities).

    While Poles are obsessed with freedom, Germans are obsessed with obedience.

    For example, some slogans from Polish culture: “we fight for our freedom and yours”**, “freemen with freeman, equal men with equal men”***, “Poland, firt to fight”,
    “it’s better to be hungry but free, than live as a rich slave”****, “nothing about us without us”*****, “we don’t ask for freedom, we fight for it”
    .

    Find equivalents in German language.

    “Polish people are nearly indistinguishable from Germans, when you live amongst both in America.”

    You will see difference between Poles and Germans in time of trouble. In peace time everybody looks the same.

    My Little Bunny fufu,

    I have learned quite a bit about Polish history since debating with you, and thanks again for fighting the Mongols. Having said that, I still think Poles should have bees in their bonnets over the Russians bringing Mongolian soldiers into Eastern Europe. I’m just saying…..

    Weren’t the Teutonic Knights fighting paganism? I know they were Germanic, and I’m not saying they were correct to attack pagans, but religious wars never cease to occur. Nearly every group of people fight over it at some point. So, it was not necessarily a German vs. Pole ethnic battle.

    I found this information the other day:

    From ForeignPolicy.com:

    MARCH 21, 2023, 11:16 AM
    On a sweltering summer day, July 10, 1941, hundreds of Jews were murdered by their Polish neighbors in the village of Jedwabne, almost 100 miles northeast of Warsaw. Babies were killed. Men were tortured. Women were raped. A young girl was decapitated and her head used as a soccer ball.
    Villagers whose lives had not been extinguished with axes, clubs, and knives were rounded up and taken first to the market square and then to the outskirts of town, where they were herded into a barn. The wooden structure was doused with kerosene and set alight. Women, children, and men were burned alive as the jeering crowd watched. Their cries of agony reverberated throughout the village. Looting of the victims’ homes followed as peasants from neighboring villages showed up to take part in the plunder.
    A monument erected near the barn where the Jews were immolated blamed Poland’s Nazi occupiers for the pogrom. Townspeople walked by the plaque for decades, knowing that it was a lie. Sixty years later, Polish Jewish historian Jan Gross’s Neighbors: The Destruction of the Jewish Community in Jedwabne, Poland uncovered the truth, drawing on documents long buried in archives and interviews with survivors: The massacre was perpetrated by the local villagers rather than their German occupiers. Similar massacres were reported from nearby towns, including Radzilow, Szczuczyn and Wasocz.
    …………………………………………………………………………….

    I don’t bring this up to castigate Poland. But, things just are not always as they seem, and that’s often true on both sides of one issue. One thing is always consistent though; the Jews are eventually targeted for expulsion by nearly everyone in the communities in which they reside, regardless of nationality, and throughout history, with nearly the exact accusations of perfidy claimed all around. Did Jews assist a Swedish invasion of Poland? Did they assist the Moors into Spain? Did they support the Bolsheviks? Does George Soros fund immigration into America and Europe. Yes, yes, yes, and yes. It’s the same pattern, evident today.

    Regarding mass graves, the skeletal remains can be approximately dated, but unless DNA tests are done, how can we know who is buried? With two world wars, and multiple conflicts before and after, I suspect there are mass graves everywhere. If you are interested, you can view Hellstorm: The Death of Nazi Germany on video on Odysee. I suspect there are mass German graves all over the place, courtesy of Bolshevik/Soviet soldiers, who also murdered Polish citizens, as well.

    Little Bunny, I am telling you, Germans and Poles have more in common than not, especially these days. With centuries of immigration throughout your territory, there is just no way German ethnicity is not carried, to some extent, by many Poles. I don’t care what the anti-Hitlerites say, I think Hitler preferred cooperation with Slavic countries. I listened to many speeches and read his writings, and whilst singing the praises of Germans, he did disparage other peoples, but that doesn’t equate to wanting to eliminate other nations. He was ultimately backed into a corner, and came out swinging, to put it mildly. I don’t think he ever said Polish people, as a group, would ruin Europe. The Jews, however…..

    Just think about it, Little bun bun. ðŸ°

    I have. German crimes are well documented. Read for example this report: "The War Report - Abridged Version"*.

    To be correct: Poland lost 12 milion citizens (30% of population) because of war unleashed by Germans and Anglosaxons.

    I'm not sure these numbers but the split seems to be:

    5-6 milion of Polish citizens were killed (Polish citizens mean: ethnic Poles but also minorities living in Poland before 1939: Belarussians, Gypsies, Jews, Ukrainians etc.).

    5-6 milion of Polish citizens survived but remained outside new borders of post-war Poland.
    After war, there was a big shift of borders of Poland. If you don't know what I'm talking about check map in "CHANGES IN THE BORDERS" chapter, page 13 in report I mentioned above.

    Replies: @The Old Philosopher, @Tiptoethrutulips

    Can I answer, Little Bunny fufu?

    1. Yes.

    2. It’s not an eternal German territory. But, Germans have historically resided therein:

    In about 1249, Duke PrzemysÅ‚ I began constructing what would become the Royal Castle on a hill on the left bank of the Warta. Then in 1253, PrzemysÅ‚ issued a charter to Thomas of Guben (Gubin) for the founding of a town under Magdeburg law, between the castle and the river. Thomas brought a large number of German settlers to aid in the building and settlement of the city – this is an example of the German eastern migration (Ostsiedlung) characteristic of that period….. In the second half of the 17th century and most of the 18th, PoznaÅ„ was severely affected by a series of wars, attendant military occupations, lootings and destruction …. During the Deluge, Poznań’s Jewish community was accused of collaborating with the invading Swedish enemy….. It was also hit by frequent outbreaks of plague, and by floods, particularly that of 1736, which destroyed most of the suburban buildings. The population of the conurbation declined from 20,000 around 1600 to 6,000 around 1730, and *Bambergian and Dutch settlers (Bambers and OlÄ™ders) were brought in to rebuild the devastated suburbs. In 1778, a “Committee of Good Order” (Komisja Dobrego PorzÄ…dku) was established in the city, which oversaw rebuilding efforts and reorganized the city’s administration. However, in 1793, in the Second Partition of Poland, PoznaÅ„ came under the control of the Kingdom of Prussia, becoming part of (and initially the seat of) the province of South Prussia…..

    I accepted your correction about Warthegau, and with that correction, it proves my point and entirely refuted yours that Hitler sought only to take all of Poland for Germany from the beginning rather than only reclaim German territory taken at Versailles which counts only had he incorporated it into the Reich all Polish territory he seized which he clearly did not, nor intended to do, thereby entirely refuting your claims.

    Now what he would have done had he not lost the war is an open question that would depend entirely on the circumstances that then prevailed rather than what his plans at the outset were since had the British been willing to reach a settlement, the Polish issue would have undoubtedly been resolved differntly. History however never reveasls its alternatrives.

    1) Do you agree that other (than German) nations have right to self-defence including preemptive attack ?

    2) You didn’t answer simple question why Poznań (Posen) region possessed, governed and populated by Poles by over 800 years is an eternal German territory.

    3) Do you have real proofs i.e. mass graves of Germans allegedly murdered by Poles in 1939?

    4) You claim that Hitler "Hitler never incorporated any part of Poland in to Germany except for the Corridor areas that were German to begin with." - I proved you are wrong.

    You didn't address any of these issues.

    BTW, I don't esteem philosophers - they live in their own worlds and are easily manipulated by real people.

    I deny your claim since the very fact it has a German name proves it was not under continuous Polish control as by your question you seek to claim.

    3) Do you have real proofs i.e. mass graves of Germans allegedly murdered by Poles in 1939?

    Do you have real poofs of the 6 million alleged killed by the Germans. I haver no idea what you mean by “mass graves” or how many thousands need to be buried in one to count. There are, however clear photos of thousands of German corpses murdered by Poles.

    4) You claim that Hitler “Hitler never incorporated any part of Poland in to Germany except for the Corridor areas that were German to begin with.†– I proved you are wrong.

    I accepted your correction about Warthegau, and with that correction, it proves my point and entirely refuted yours that Hitler sought only to take all of Poland for Germany from the beginning rather than only reclaim German territory taken at Versailles which counts only had he incorporated it into the Reich all Polish territory he seized which he clearly did not, nor intended to do, thereby entirely refuting your claims.

    Now what he would have done had he not lost the war is an open question that would depend entirely on the circumstances that then prevailed rather than what his plans at the outset were since had the British been willing to reach a settlement, the Polish issue would have undoubtedly been resolved differntly. History however never reveasls its alternatrives.

    I repeat my question:

    "1) Do you agree that other (than German) nations have right to self-defence including preemptive attack ?"

    Yes or Not?

    "I deny your claim since the very fact it has a German (...)"

    You have no basic knowledge about history of the region. Explain how name Poznań is a German origin word?

    " Plus, that area has been under control of numerous different ethnic groups (...) "

    Please, list those "different ethnic groups" chronologically.

    I repeat my question:

    "3) Do you have real proofs i.e. mass graves of Germans allegedly murdered by Poles in 1939?"

    Of course you don't have evidences, because nothing such had ever happend in 1939.

    "Do you have real poofs of the 6 million alleged killed by the Germans. "

    I have. German crimes are well documented. Read for example this report: "The War Report - Abridged Version"*.

    To be correct: Poland lost 12 milion citizens (30% of population) because of war unleashed by Germans and Anglosaxons.

    I'm not sure these numbers but the split seems to be:

    5-6 milion of Polish citizens were killed (Polish citizens mean: ethnic Poles but also minorities living in Poland before 1939: Belarussians, Gypsies, Jews, Ukrainians etc.).

    5-6 milion of Polish citizens survived but remained outside new borders of post-war Poland.
    After war, there was a big shift of borders of Poland. If you don't know what I'm talking about check map in "CHANGES IN THE BORDERS" chapter, page 13 in report I mentioned above.

    "There are, however clear photos of thousands of German corpses murdered by Poles."

    Please, provide references before I call you hypocrite and troll again.

    > As usual, you and your ilk take statements out of context

    There's nothing out of context about the fact that Hitler's ambitions for living space meant that he was aiming to thrust aside any kind of national borders wherever it suited him. He avoided a conflict with Mussolini over South Tyrol, even though a strict classical reading of national frontiers could have been made to justify a conflict with Italy. Yet he had resolved that the place for an expanding Aryan race was in eastern Europe, and hence conflict with Italy was best avoided. Meanwhile, and Slavic governments, even if the Czarist had somehow managed to survive into the 1940s by a historical accident, would have had to come into conflict with Hitler's lebensraum agenda.

    There’s nothing out of context about the fact that Hitler’s ambitions for living space meant that he was aiming to thrust aside any kind of national borders wherever it suited him.

    Who thrusted aside any kind of national borders to create Czechoslovakia, and include the Sudetenland and Bohemia/Moravia therein?

    And the Kings of all Thrusters (have you seen them going “at it†at that old, crumbly wall?), who eventually thrusted their way into the Holy Land, did they thrust aside any borders in Palestine? Did they do it to suit themselves? Were Jews proclaiming the need for Jewish lebensraum?

    Chamberlain and Churchill were English, were they not? Should I bother to suggest the English did quite a bit of border thrusting themselves?

    Any border thrusting in the Rhineland? First the Franks…..back and forth…I can’t say for certain if it was occupied by France after WW1, but Germany had no authority therein, so maybe symbolic border thrusting is the appropriate term.

    It is also a known fact that Hitler was planning on thrusting borders in South America, and I know this to be true because FDR said it was so:

    32nd President of the United States: 1933 †1945
    Radio Address Announcing an Unlimited National Emergency.
    May 27, 1941
    I AM SPEAKING tonight from the White House in the presence of the Governing Board of the Pan American Union, the Canadian Minister, and their families. […]
    The first and fundamental fact is that what started as a European war has developed, as the Nazis always intended it should develop, into a world war for world domination.
    Adolf Hitler never considered the domination of Europe as an end in itself. European conquest was but a step toward ultimate goals in all the other continents. It is unmistakably apparent to all of us that, unless the advance of Hitlerism is forcibly checked now, the Western Hemisphere will be within range of the Nazi weapons of destruction. […]
    And in March, 1941, the Congress passed the Lend-Lease Bill and an appropriation of seven billion dollars to implement it. This law realistically provided for material aid “for the government of any country whose defense the President deems vital to the defense of the United States.”

    (I must interrupt here; wasn’t this Lend-Lease for the primary benefit of the Soviets? Exactly when did Churchill realize we were funding an Iron Curtain? Any border thrusting by the Soviets?)

    […] They would fasten an economic stranglehold upon our several Nations. Quislings would be found to subvert the governments in our Republics; and the Nazis would back their fifth columns with invasion, if necessary.

    No, I am not speculating about all this. I merely repeat what is already in the Nazi book of world conquest. They plan to treat the Latin American Nations as they are now treating the Balkans. They plan then to strangle the United States of America and the Dominion of Canada.

    I’ll go ahead and stop here, McNally. You have some explaining to do. What about that Map, McNally?

    Czechoslovakia was created out of the breakdown of the old Austro-Hungarian empire. The German Austrians had always loather the multi-ethnic Habsburg empire, so this should not have been any loss for them. But Hitler's for a drive to the east to conquer the living space of the Slavs required the Czechoslovak region as a steppingstone. He never made a big deal about South Tyrol with Mussolini, because he did not regard this as relevant for his wider ambitions.

    And the key to resorting to force is that once you appeal your case to heaven ., there is no other court you can go go and the result is at least temporarily final until the parties are ready for the next go around.

    And then at each juncture, the question is who precipitated the event for what purpose, and what alternatives there were for a peaceful resolution that accommodated the interest of all parties rather than someone creating conditions that left people only the choice of fighting or surrendering to the demands the conditions the party created imposed on them.

    It all comes back to the principle the Spartan propounded when a city state pleaded with them to forebear with their demands in the name of justice, to which the Spartan responded: "The strong do as they will, and the weak duffer as they must," at least until the worm turns.

    That being so, the Carthaginian peace the Romans imposed on Carthage is the only option the strong have to prevent the weak from ever rising up against them.

    The fact is that it was the UK-US conspiracy to crush Germany as an economic competitor that produce both WWI and WWII. They succeeded and were thereby able to make up the lies by which they could claim it was the Germans who were responsible for all of it, when it was they who set the stage for the play that followed in each case.

    The worm is now turning, and the results are unlikely to be pretty. It is, however becoming crystal clear the world has had it with the phony rules based order the US empire is seeking to impose on the world.

    As a result, a new rules based order is emerging that will put an end to the US Empire.

    Can I answer, Little Bunny fufu?

    1. Yes.

    2. It’s not an eternal German territory. But, Germans have historically resided therein:

    In about 1249, Duke Przemysł I began constructing what would become the Royal Castle on a hill on the left bank of the Warta. Then in 1253, Przemysł issued a charter to Thomas of Guben (Gubin) for the founding of a town under Magdeburg law, between the castle and the river. Thomas brought a large number of German settlers to aid in the building and settlement of the city – this is an example of the German eastern migration (Ostsiedlung) characteristic of that period….. In the second half of the 17th century and most of the 18th, Poznań was severely affected by a series of wars, attendant military occupations, lootings and destruction …. During the Deluge, Poznań’s Jewish community was accused of collaborating with the invading Swedish enemy….. It was also hit by frequent outbreaks of plague, and by floods, particularly that of 1736, which destroyed most of the suburban buildings. The population of the conurbation declined from 20,000 around 1600 to 6,000 around 1730, and *Bambergian and Dutch settlers (Bambers and Olęders) were brought in to rebuild the devastated suburbs. In 1778, a "Committee of Good Order" (Komisja Dobrego Porządku) was established in the city, which oversaw rebuilding efforts and reorganized the city's administration. However, in 1793, in the Second Partition of Poland, Poznań came under the control of the Kingdom of Prussia, becoming part of (and initially the seat of) the province of South Prussia….. It would become part of the German Empire with the unification of German states in 1871…… Poznań was captured by the Red Army, assisted by Polish volunteers, on 23 February 1945 following the Battle of Poznań, in which the German army conducted a last-ditch defense in line with Hitler's designation of the city as a Festung. The Citadel was the last point to be taken, and the fighting left much of the city, particularly the Old Town, in ruins……..

    *Germans.

    Back to Danzig/Gdańsk: (from VisitGdansk)
    Germans played a special role in the history of Gdansk. Starting from the second half of the 14th century and all the way to 1946, they constituted the majority of the city’s residents. A description from 1659 reads: “The number of Germans is greater than the remaining nations, followed by Poles, thus, the two languages, German and Polish, are in use hereâ€â€¦.. Out of the 1000 years of its existence, the city belonged to the Teutonic Order for 146 years, to Prussia and the German Reich for 126, and was formally a free city for 26. In total, this adds up to 298 years. For the remaining 700, the city had close ties to Poland. Gdansk Germans were regular citizens of pre-partition Poland. Coming of age, they would swear an oath of loyalty to the Polish King – in German – and would keep their vows in times of danger – one could say they would do this the German way: diligently and fairly. Examples of this include Poland’s wars against Sweden and the year 1734, when they fought bravely to protect King Stanislaw Leszczynski from the Russian army laying siege to the city.

    3. It is acknowledged, through multiple sources, that Germans were targeted by Polish citizens. You can find this information if you look for it. Poland did invade Czechoslovakia in 1938; so, they went after Czechs, but not Germans? Regarding mass graves, how could we find them? Jews claim hundreds of thousands of inmates were shot and buried in mass graves all over Poland. However, as far as I know, these graves have never been found, and much of the territory is under government use and/or was developed, and the polish government does not permit excavation. However, Russia has acknowledged the massacre at Katyn Forest. They blamed the Germans for years.

    4. Germany invaded Poland; no one denies this. The Soviets invaded also. As I said before, Little Bunny, the Swedes and Russians seem to have been more destructive to Poland throughout history. To me, Poland looks similar to Germany, and like it or not, Germans and Poles are inextricably linked. Polish people are nearly indistinguishable from Germans, when you live amongst both in America. Good and bad conduct notwithstanding, European people have much in common. I would gladly take a horde of Poles over the hordes invading America and Europe today. Ask Paris, London or Malmo if they agree.

    Elected kings in "Poland" (in fact in Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth or Republic of Both Nations)- 1572-1795 you cited correctly.

    Major regional conflicts in Poland were settled till XIII century. As far as I know, the last big region of Poland- Mazovia* (area around Warsaw) was formally incorporated into Kingdom of Poland in 1526 (although in fact it was strongly connected to Poland much earlier).

    Anyway, in XVI century Kingdom of Poland was quite well united. In contrary to Germany which were unable to unite untill XIX century.

    You have no proofs (mass graves etc.) that German innocent civilians (it means: not spies, not saboteurs, not common criminals) were deliberately killed in 1939 (or shortly before) by Poles (maybe except Bloody Sunday** in Bydgoszcz (Bromberg) on 3-4 September 1939 where 300 Germans were killed but remember that Germans killed over 1,000-3,000 Poles in retaliation).

    " [Me]: Why you think that Germany had right to expand but other countries had no right to self-defence?

    To prove what a fraudulent challenge you pose that has no basis in fact, post any statement I have made that expressly asserted what you claim I said."

    You agree that other countries have right to self-defence? Right?
    Self-defence means also preemptive attack.

    Pope Innocent XI called for a Holy Alliance of Christian princes to resist the Muslim horde. The author portrays Innocent as a true Defender of the West who “never slackened since the day of his election†(in 1676) to organize a Crusade against the Sultan. Innocent pledged the revenues of the church to help raise an army.

    King John Sobieski III of Poland, a veteran of the wars against the Turks, was willing to lead a contingent in support of the Habsburgs. But he had to have the unanimous approval of the Polish Diet. Louis XIV’s agents tried to bribe key members into vetoing the proposal. The papal nuncio, Pallavicini, was ordered by Innocent XI to use his powers, including those of his purse, to outbid the French. This they managed, though just barely. King John then set about to raise an army of 40,000.

    While Kara Mustafa’s savage Tartar allies pillaged the surrounding countryside, the Turkish engineers went about the business of constructing siege lines and undermining the city’s defenses. Mustafa’s great gamble nearly succeeded. Dysentery, considered by the author “the Turks’ strongest ally,†spread fast among the soldiers and remaining civilian population of Vienna. The Muslims were on the verge of breaching the last defensive works, when, on September 9, it was announced that the relief force was assembling nearby.

    Commanded by King John Sobieski, and including valuable reinforcements from Bavaria, Franconia, Thuringia, and Saxony, the allies attacked the Turks on September 12, a Sunday. Writes Stoye “At last the hour was reached when the Christian army, to use the emphatic language of a contemporary Turkish writer, became a flood of black pitch coming down the mountain, consuming everything it touched.†The next day, Sobieski made his victorious entry into Vienna, in advance of Emperor Leopold, to the acclamation of the grateful Viennese public.

    In what has been dubbed the Last of the Crusades (from 1683-1699), Poland, Hungary, Austria, the Papal States, and such Mediterranean powers as Savoy, continued to exercise military pressure against the Turks.

    Anything which involves a jump from October 1938 to April 1939 can at best be described as "bits and pieces." The full documentary record shows that Hitler never intended to adhere to the Munich Agreement, and this is totally independent of whether one considers the Czechoslovak state to be "natural." If there had been no determined effort by Hitler to force his terms of occupation on Czechia, then it's quite plausible that the Czechoslovak state might have dissolved itself in 1941 without any foreign military occupation. Something like what happened in 1993. But that was not Hitler's agenda. His aim was to gain a hold over Czechoslovakia, from which he could impose terms on Poland, and launch the greater drive to the east. A leap from October 1938 (when the Munich Agreement was less than a month old) to April 1939 (when it was clearly dead) skips over the crucial intermediary events.

    About Czechoslovakia….3 million Germans therein. Here’s a few bits and pieces usually left out of the accusations on Hitler’s lebensraum mania:

    Following the Munich Agreement of 1938, Slovakia lost its southern territories to neighbouring Hungary but gained greater autonomy within Czechoslovakia.

    From Kafkadesk:

    The independence of Czechoslovakia was officially proclaimed in 1918, following the collapse of the German and Austro-Hungarian empires at the end of World War I. The ensuing treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain-en-Laye officially defined the borders of the new state, which incorporated the German-speaking territories of Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia.

    The Sudetenland
    Due to the new country’s centralized political structure, nationalism soon arose in the non-Czech nationalities, and several parties and movements were formed with the aim of fighting for broader political autonomy, with ethnic Germans and Hungarians openly agitating against the territorial settlements.
    By 1933, encouraged by the newly founded Sudeten German Party, led by Konrad Henlein and financed by Nazi Germany, the particularly large German minority living in the Sudetenland region, which ranges across western Bohemia and northern Moravia, started demanding autonomy from Czechoslovakia, claiming they were oppressed by the national government.

    A deal was quickly reached and at about 1:30 a.m. on September 30, 1938, Adolf Hitler, Neville Chamberlain, Benito Mussolini, and Édouard Daladier signed the so-called Munich Agreement, which stipulated that the German army was to complete the occupation of the Sudetenland by October 10, and an international commission would decide the future of other disputed areas.

    TttT: (So-called Munich Agreement? Like the so-called Versailles Treaty? Where were the other disputed areas?)

    Known as the “Munich Betrayal†or the “Munich Diktat†among Czechs and Slovaks, the Munich Agreement was soon followed by the First Vienna Award, which awarded Hungary Czechoslovakia’s largely Magyar-populated territories in southern Slovakia and southern Carpathian Ruthenia.
    Chamberlain’s appeasement policies were ultimately discredited the following year when, in March 1939, Slovakia declared its independence from Czechoslovakia to side with Nazi Germany and Adolf Hitler annexed the remainder of Czechoslovakia.
    World War II broke out the following September and, although it did buy time for the Allies to increase their military preparedness, the Munich Agreement quickly became a byword for the futility of appeasing expansionist totalitarian states.
    After World War II the Sudetenland was restored to Czechoslovakia, which expelled most of the German inhabitants and repopulated the area with Czechs.

    McNally: If you’re not Adolf Hitler, you CAN expel troublemakers from your country, even if those troublemakers had an actual historical claim to the territory and were responsible for the successful industry therein, and even if the troublemaker’s territory had been previously lost via an illegitimate treaty.

    Braveheart Narrator: “An oath to a liar is no oath at all.†Unless you’re Adolf Hitler…..you know the thing…

    I read over the Munich Pact. I didn’t see the promise to refrain from the annexation of additional former German territories by plebiscite or otherwise, nor did I see an agreement to refrain from thwarting Soviet/Bolshevik expansion.

    Chamberlain never made any threat of war to Hitler, until Hitler had torn up the Munich Agreement. Chamberlain spoke of "peace in our time: because that was what he wanted. Hitler was resolved on overrunning Czechoslovakia from the first moment when he signed the Munich Agreement. That was what made the difference.

    And there were elected kings of Poland from only 1572 through 1795 (just over 200 years) (...)"

    You missed Piast dynasty in Poland - 966-1370 and Jagiellonian dynasty in Poland - 1385-1572 (personal union of Poland and Lithuania- it means the same king in both countries: Kingdom of Poland and Grand Duchy of Lithuania).
    Elected kings in "Poland" (in fact in Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth or Republic of Both Nations)- 1572-1795 you cited correctly.

    Major regional conflicts in Poland were settled till XIII century. As far as I know, the last big region of Poland- Mazovia* (area around Warsaw) was formally incorporated into Kingdom of Poland in 1526 (although in fact it was strongly connected to Poland much earlier).

    Anyway, in XVI century Kingdom of Poland was quite well united. In contrary to Germany which were unable to unite untill XIX century.

    "The conditions Hitler and the Reich faced in 1939 when the issue was limited to German-Polish relations regarding the murdering of Germans in the Corridor,(...)"

    You have no proofs (mass graves etc.) that German innocent civilians (it means: not spies, not saboteurs, not common criminals) were deliberately killed in 1939 (or shortly before) by Poles (maybe except Bloody Sunday** in Bydgoszcz (Bromberg) on 3-4 September 1939 where 300 Germans were killed but remember that Germans killed over 1,000-3,000 Poles in retaliation).

    " [Me]: Why you think that Germany had right to expand but other countries had no right to self-defence?

    To prove what a fraudulent challenge you pose that has no basis in fact, post any statement I have made that expressly asserted what you claim I said."

    Straw man fallacy?

    You agree that other countries have right to self-defence? Right?
    Self-defence means also preemptive attack.
    Just like Germans in (alleged ) self-defence made an preemptive attack on Poland.

    Do you agree that other nations have right to self-defence including preemptive attack ?

    Unless you don't answer the simple question I will treat you like a manipulator.

    "Bloody Sunday (German: Bromberger Blutsonntag; Polish: Krwawa niedziela) was a sequence of violent events that took place in Bydgoszcz (German: Bromberg), a Polish city with a sizable German minority, between 3 and 4 September 1939, during the German invasion of Poland.
    "After German Selbstschutz snipers fired on retreating Polish troops, there was a Polish reaction against the German minority and then the retaliatory execution of Polish hostages by the Wehrmacht and Selbstschutz, after the fall of the city. All these events resulted in the deaths of both German and Polish civilians. The Polish Institute of National Remembrance found and confirmed 254 Lutheran victims, assumed to be German civilians, and 86 Catholic victims, assumed to be Polish civilians, as well as 20 Polish soldiers. Approximately 600–800 Polish hostages were shot in a mass execution in the aftermath of the fall of the city. "

    You know what Fufu, how lands were divided up between what nobles and people even two hundred much less five hundred or a thousand years go doesn’t add up to a thimble-full of shit.

    In any case, territorial boundaries are not sacrosanct and divinely ordained. They are made and unmade by humans based and the strength of the contending parties and their willing to reach settlements peacefully or by resorting to force.

    And the key to resorting to force is that once you appeal your case to heaven ., there is no other court you can go go and the result is at least temporarily final until the parties are ready for the next go around.

    And then at each juncture, the question is who precipitated the event for what purpose, and what alternatives there were for a peaceful resolution that accommodated the interest of all parties rather than someone creating conditions that left people only the choice of fighting or surrendering to the demands the conditions the party created imposed on them.

    It all comes back to the principle the Spartan propounded when a city state pleaded with them to forebear with their demands in the name of justice, to which the Spartan responded: “The strong do as they will, and the weak duffer as they must,” at least until the worm turns.

    That being so, the Carthaginian peace the Romans imposed on Carthage is the only option the strong have to prevent the weak from ever rising up against them.

    The fact is that it was the UK-US conspiracy to crush Germany as an economic competitor that produce both WWI and WWII. They succeeded and were thereby able to make up the lies by which they could claim it was the Germans who were responsible for all of it, when it was they who set the stage for the play that followed in each case.

    The worm is now turning, and the results are unlikely to be pretty. It is, however becoming crystal clear the world has had it with the phony rules based order the US empire is seeking to impose on the world.

    As a result, a new rules based order is emerging that will put an end to the US Empire.

    Hitler’s goes on endlessly about the need for the Aryan race to expand its living space….. There is nothing which he ever says about a “nation†keeping within some kind of borders. His view is that the construct of a “nation-state†only exists to facilitate racial interests, where the interests of the race require an outlet for steady territorial expansion.
    �
    As usual, you and your ilk take statements out of context, nor do you ascribe speech or actions, once perfectly acceptable in pro-English/pro-American leaders, aka pro-Jewish stooges, as perfectly reasonable for this particular German leader (although America’s ruination via Jewish influence is more recent - Mr. Franklin, who did call Germans “swarthy,†said, don’t let Jews in, for the love of God! - I’m sure he’s rolling in his grave, recanting his insults to Germans, as he rolls…)

    Pro-Jewish = good. You are a Jew! Be proud, but do NOT look upon the image of Christ, as that Christian pastor hides your ungrateful, prideful self from Evil Nazis, who unfairly claim we Jews are destructive to western society! But, remember…don’t cross yourself, they are all cattle - even the best of them, Jesus is boiling in excrement, they destroyed our Temple! it’s ok to steal from a gentile, do NOT let them read the Talmud!….said every Rabbi, ever.

    Pro-European = used to be good, ok to expand territory during eras of international expansion and exploration, ok to share technology, BUT then, Germany = bad. Rest of Europe = bad. Colonizers, slavers, bigots, racists, women are baby-making slaves to their men, let the “negrification†occur, and enjoy gang-rape, robbery, looting, rap music, burning cities, failing schools, over-vaccination containing diseased materials, dual Israeli citizens, wars for Israel, enormous subsidies to Israel, all courtesy of Jewish = good…..said Adolf Hitler, rather presciently.

    Did I drift a bit off topic? Not really; it’s all related to Hitler’s defeat. I know you don’t like it, but it is possible to evaluate, analyze, and contrast offensive actions, defensive actions, and changes to objectives due to changing circumstances.

    (From Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf (1924) - From Volume II, Section 14).

    […] State boundaries are made by man and changed by man.

    The fact that a nation has succeeded in acquiring an undue amount of soil constitutes no higher obligation that it should be recognized eternally. At most it proves the strength of the conquerors and the weakness of the nations. And in this case, right lies in this strength alone. If the German nation today, penned into an impossible area, faces a lamentable future, this is no more a commandment of Fate than revolt against this state of affairs constitutes an affront to Fate. No more than any higher power has promised another nation more territory than the Gerrnan nation, or is offended by the fact of this unjust distribution of the soil. Just as our ancestors did not receive the soil on which we live today as a gift from Heaven, but had to fight for it at the risk of their lives, in the future no folkish grace will win soil for us and hence life for our people, but only the might of a victorious sword.

    Much as all of us today recognize the necessity of a reckoning with France, it would remain ineffectual in the long run if it represented the whole of our aim in foreign policy. It can and will achieve meaning only if it offers the rear cover for an enlargement of our people's living space in Europe. For it is not in colonial acquisitions that we must see the solution of this problem, but exclusively in the acquisition of a territory for settlement, which will enhance the area of the mother country, and hence not only keep the new settlers in the most intimate community with the land of their origin, but secure for the total area those advantages which lie in its unified magnitude.

    The folkish movement must not be the champion of other peoples, but the vanguard fighter of its own. Otherwise it is superfluous and above all has no right to sulk about the past. For in that case it is behaving in exactly tbe same wav. The old German policy was wrongly determined by dynastic considerations, and the future policy must not be directed by cosmopolitan folkish drivel. In particular, we are not constables guarding the well-known 'poor little nations,' but soldiers of our own nation.

    But we National Socialists must go further. The right to possess soil can become a duty if without extension of its soil a great nation seems doomed to destruction. And most especially when not some little negro nation or other is involved, but the Germanic mother of life, which has given the present-day world its cultural picture. Germany will either be a world power or there will be no Germany. And for world power she needs that magnitude which will give her the position she needs in the present period, and life to her citizens.

    There’s nothing out of context about the fact that Hitler’s ambitions for living space meant that he was aiming to thrust aside any kind of national borders wherever it suited him. He avoided a conflict with Mussolini over South Tyrol, even though a strict classical reading of national frontiers could have been made to justify a conflict with Italy. Yet he had resolved that the place for an expanding Aryan race was in eastern Europe, and hence conflict with Italy was best avoided. Meanwhile, and Slavic governments, even if the Czarist had somehow managed to survive into the 1940s by a historical accident, would have had to come into conflict with Hitler’s lebensraum agenda.

    �
    Who thrusted aside any kind of national borders to create Czechoslovakia, and include the Sudetenland and Bohemia/Moravia therein?

    And the Kings of all Thrusters (have you seen them going “at it†at that old, crumbly wall?), who eventually thrusted their way into the Holy Land, did they thrust aside any borders in Palestine? Did they do it to suit themselves? Were Jews proclaiming the need for Jewish lebensraum?

    Chamberlain and Churchill were English, were they not? Should I bother to suggest the English did quite a bit of border thrusting themselves?

    Any border thrusting in the Rhineland? First the Franks…..back and forth…I can’t say for certain if it was occupied by France after WW1, but Germany had no authority therein, so maybe symbolic border thrusting is the appropriate term.

    It is also a known fact that Hitler was planning on thrusting borders in South America, and I know this to be true because FDR said it was so:

    32nd President of the United States: 1933 †1945
    Radio Address Announcing an Unlimited National Emergency.
    May 27, 1941
    I AM SPEAKING tonight from the White House in the presence of the Governing Board of the Pan American Union, the Canadian Minister, and their families. […]
    The first and fundamental fact is that what started as a European war has developed, as the Nazis always intended it should develop, into a world war for world domination.
    Adolf Hitler never considered the domination of Europe as an end in itself. European conquest was but a step toward ultimate goals in all the other continents. It is unmistakably apparent to all of us that, unless the advance of Hitlerism is forcibly checked now, the Western Hemisphere will be within range of the Nazi weapons of destruction. […]
    And in March, 1941, the Congress passed the Lend-Lease Bill and an appropriation of seven billion dollars to implement it. This law realistically provided for material aid "for the government of any country whose defense the President deems vital to the defense of the United States."

    (I must interrupt here; wasn’t this Lend-Lease for the primary benefit of the Soviets? Exactly when did Churchill realize we were funding an Iron Curtain? Any border thrusting by the Soviets?)

    […] They would fasten an economic stranglehold upon our several Nations. Quislings would be found to subvert the governments in our Republics; and the Nazis would back their fifth columns with invasion, if necessary.

    No, I am not speculating about all this. I merely repeat what is already in the Nazi book of world conquest. They plan to treat the Latin American Nations as they are now treating the Balkans. They plan then to strangle the United States of America and the Dominion of Canada.

    Bits and pieces? I read the entire applicable text; I randomly selected bits and pieces for convenience.

    Czechoslovakia was not a “naturally†established country. Are you suggesting that the Czechoslovakian authorities were not perturbed over a foreigner, Chamberlain, deciding on territory annexation on their behalf? Hitler wanted former German territory, which was illegally taken via a dubiously obtained treaty, returned to Germany. I’m sure the Czechs caused no trouble, whatsoever, over an agreement, for which they felt no real need to conform, as they were not consulted. Didn’t Churchill say, about Chamberlain, “You chose dishonor and you will have war.†Yes, he did. Were the Soviets mucking about with the Czechs? Did the Soviets burn and hang Chamberlain in effigy over the Munich Agreement? How much Sabre rattling was Hitler meant to ignore?
    In light of the rather lengthy “bits & pieces†highlighted below regarding Poland, and her often perfidious conduct during WW1, explain to me why Poland was entitled to the territory granted to her? And, by an illegally acquired treaty, no less. (Note how the Poles turned on the Austrians, who had been their benefactors.)

    From US Department of State:

    “The Allied reply stated that the German language showed “some want of appreciation of the true situation†(ibid., p. 950). The arrangements for Danzig, which had been framed “with the most scrupulous careâ€, were intended to restore the city to the position which it had occupied for so many centuries as the port of Poland. Poland justly claimed that “the control and development of the port which is her sole opening to the sea shall be in her hands and that the communications between it and Poland shall not be subjected to any foreign controlâ€.â€

    (It is universally accepted that Danzig was entirely German in 1918. How far back in time do we go to rectify past actions? For Jews, it’s thousands of years, which is why they won’t stop until Amalek is utterly destroyed.)

    From the International Encyclopedia of the First World War:

    At the beginning of the 20th century, the political status of the territories inhabited by the Poles differed greatly. Due to the partition of Poland at the end of the 18th century, Poles lived in three different states under varying political, social, economic, and cultural conditions on the eve of the Great War. In Russian-Poland, also called Congress-Poland, authorities conducted a process of Russification. The Polish language was not allowed in the public sphere, including in contact with authorities.[3]
    Many Poles who did not want to submit to these conditions moved to Galicia, also referred to as Austrian-Poland, where the political atmosphere was completely different. Poles living under Francis Joseph I, Emperor of Austria (1830-1916) were in a much better position than their compatriots in Russian-Poland, subjects of Nicholas II, Emperor of Russia (1868-1918). Since 1860, Galicia had enjoyed extensive political and cultural autonomy, with a local parliament in Lviv (Lwów), municipal corporations, and guaranteed citizens’ rights such as freedom of press, speech, and demonstration, and the right to establish political parties. Administrative, education, and judicial systems were polonized. Polish culture flourished and was able to develop without any political obstacles. Poles enjoyed a privileged status, both politically and economically dominating other ethnic and religious groups such as the Ruthenians/Ukrainians and the Jews, who together made up more than half the population of Galicia.[4]
    The harshest restrictions placed upon Polish national life occurred in Prussian-Poland, where a ruthless process of Germanization was conducted. The Polish language was forbidden in the administration, in schools, and in the judiciary system. Germans were most hated by the Poles in the years leading up to the war.[5] […]
    In June 1908, Polish radicals connected to the military branch of the Polish Socialist Party established the Union of Active Fight (Związek Walki Czynnej, ZWC). The Austrian government discreetly tolerated this secret military organization. Its main aim was to train military commanders for a new national Polish army, in preparation for the next anti-Russian uprising in Russian-Poland. […] Events in southeastern Europe generated strong impulses to intensify such activity. In October 1912, influenced by Balkan complications and on the eve of an anticipated war between Russia and Austria-Hungary, a delegation consisting of a handful of Polish political parties established an umbrella organization named The Provisional Commission of Parties Striving for Independence (Tymczasowa Komisja Skonfederowanych Stronnictw Niepodległościowych). Its aim was the coordination of activities to reestablish Polish statehood with support from Austria-Hungary.[8] […]

    The war, which finally erupted in the summer of 1914, surprised Poles as well as other European societies. At this point, Poles displayed loyalty toward their own states – Russia, Austria-Hungary, and Germany – respectively. […]

    However, in the first stage of the Great War the most active Polish political camp worked in Austria-Hungry. The Polish national activists summoned the First Company under the command of socialist activist Józef Piłsudski (1867-1935) in Cracow and, immediately after the outbreak of hostilities with Russia, crossed the Russian border with the aim of provoking a massive anti-Russian uprising.[…] (colluding with the enemies, were they? How will they be punished?)

    This was, however, incomparable to the roughly 3.5 million Polish soldiers who were mobilized to serve in the regular forces of the Russian, Austro-Hungarian, and German armies. […] From the Polish perspective, the First War could be characterized as a Polish civil war.

    Point thirteen from Woodrow Wilson’s (1856-1924) congressional speech on 8 January 1918 assumed that as a result of the war, an independent Poland, consisting of all ethnic Polish territories and having access to the sea, would be reestablished. This assumption was repeated on 3 June 1918 in the Versailles Declaration during one of the Allied conferences as well as in many unilateral statements of Western allies. In the final two years of the war, Polish sympathies had shifted in favor of the Entente, which promised better conditions to the Poles than the Central Powers.[26] […]

    In Galicia, respect toward Austrian authorities steadily declined. In summer and early autumn of 1918, demoralized and helpless Austrian authorities in Galicia fell into a state of inertia, their decisions generally ignored by the Polish populace. In many parts of Galicia, inhabitants were terrorized by bands of deserters, hidden in forest complexes. Authorities did not have enough power or energy to fight them off and thus they were forced to tolerate them.[31]

    In contrast to the situation in Galicia and in spite of losing the war, the political crisis, and revolutionary upheavals in Germany, German administration in Prussian-Poland stood firm, fulfilled its duties, and maintained formal control. German officials did not consider voluntarily resigning from these terrains in favor of a Polish state, especially because these territories were mixed in population. Germans troops, which came back from the former Russian Empire in November 1918, still regarded the 1914 border as valid. In December 1918, the provincial parliament of the Great Poland region was summoned to Poznań to decide the region’s political future. At the end of the month, as a result of Ignacy Paderewski’s arrival, an anti-German uprising erupted in Great Poland. Poles controlled the greatest part of the region until the ceasefire in February 1919.[35] […]
    It must be emphasized that military operations did not end on Polish soil in November 1918, but rather were followed by a border struggle in the new state, which continued for the next three years. Fighting took place in many areas: Eastern Galicia (war with the Ukrainians, October 1918 to July 1919), Great Poland (anti-German uprising, December 1918 to February 1919), Upper Silesia (three anti-German uprisings, 1919-1921), the raid on the Vilnius region (October 1920), and the war with Soviet Russia (until March 1921). From the Polish perspective, the First World War should be treated together with the above mentioned border struggles, which did not end until the signing of the Polish-Soviet Peace Treaty in Riga on 18 March 1921.[38] In the following years Poland remained isolated in the region and relations with the majority of its neighbors, with the exception of Romania and Latvia, remained cool or absolutely frozen, full of either suspicion and distrust or only lightly concealed hostility.

    Anything which involves a jump from October 1938 to April 1939 can at best be described as “bits and pieces.” The full documentary record shows that Hitler never intended to adhere to the Munich Agreement, and this is totally independent of whether one considers the Czechoslovak state to be “natural.” If there had been no determined effort by Hitler to force his terms of occupation on Czechia, then it’s quite plausible that the Czechoslovak state might have dissolved itself in 1941 without any foreign military occupation. Something like what happened in 1993. But that was not Hitler’s agenda. His aim was to gain a hold over Czechoslovakia, from which he could impose terms on Poland, and launch the greater drive to the east. A leap from October 1938 (when the Munich Agreement was less than a month old) to April 1939 (when it was clearly dead) skips over the crucial intermediary events.

    About Czechoslovakia….3 million Germans therein. Here’s a few bits and pieces usually left out of the accusations on Hitler’s lebensraum mania:

    Following the Munich Agreement of 1938, Slovakia lost its southern territories to neighbouring Hungary but gained greater autonomy within Czechoslovakia.

    From Kafkadesk:

    The independence of Czechoslovakia was officially proclaimed in 1918, following the collapse of the German and Austro-Hungarian empires at the end of World War I. The ensuing treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain-en-Laye officially defined the borders of the new state, which incorporated the German-speaking territories of Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia.

    The Sudetenland
    Due to the new country’s centralized political structure, nationalism soon arose in the non-Czech nationalities, and several parties and movements were formed with the aim of fighting for broader political autonomy, with ethnic Germans and Hungarians openly agitating against the territorial settlements.
    By 1933, encouraged by the newly founded Sudeten German Party, led by Konrad Henlein and financed by Nazi Germany, the particularly large German minority living in the Sudetenland region, which ranges across western Bohemia and northern Moravia, started demanding autonomy from Czechoslovakia, claiming they were oppressed by the national government.

    A deal was quickly reached and at about 1:30 a.m. on September 30, 1938, Adolf Hitler, Neville Chamberlain, Benito Mussolini, and Édouard Daladier signed the so-called Munich Agreement, which stipulated that the German army was to complete the occupation of the Sudetenland by October 10, and an international commission would decide the future of other disputed areas.

    TttT: (So-called Munich Agreement? Like the so-called Versailles Treaty? Where were the other disputed areas?)

    Known as the “Munich Betrayal†or the “Munich Diktat†among Czechs and Slovaks, the Munich Agreement was soon followed by the First Vienna Award, which awarded Hungary Czechoslovakia’s largely Magyar-populated territories in southern Slovakia and southern Carpathian Ruthenia.
    Chamberlain’s appeasement policies were ultimately discredited the following year when, in March 1939, Slovakia declared its independence from Czechoslovakia to side with Nazi Germany and Adolf Hitler annexed the remainder of Czechoslovakia.
    World War II broke out the following September and, although it did buy time for the Allies to increase their military preparedness, the Munich Agreement quickly became a byword for the futility of appeasing expansionist totalitarian states.
    After World War II the Sudetenland was restored to Czechoslovakia, which expelled most of the German inhabitants and repopulated the area with Czechs.

    McNally: If you’re not Adolf Hitler, you CAN expel troublemakers from your country, even if those troublemakers had an actual historical claim to the territory and were responsible for the successful industry therein, and even if the troublemaker’s territory had been previously lost via an illegitimate treaty.

    Braveheart Narrator: “An oath to a liar is no oath at all.†Unless you’re Adolf Hitler…..you know the thing…

    I read over the Munich Pact. I didn’t see the promise to refrain from the annexation of additional former German territories by plebiscite or otherwise, nor did I see an agreement to refrain from thwarting Soviet/Bolshevik expansion.

    From 966 to 1793 it was a Polish territory inhabited in 90% by Poles.
    It means 827 years.
    �
    Except, of course, there was no Poland as a governmental entity in the modern sense that you are using the term.

    And there were elected kings of Poland from only 1572 through 1795 (just over 200 years) that was when Poland was ended as such with the final partition of 1795 after it had been partitioned twice before in 1772 and 1793.

    So anyone making your extravagantly ridiculous claims about historical developments that is the basis for your declarations deserves no further consideration as anyone having anything worthwhile to say on any subject.

    But my final point to you about your babblings is that the intentions and aims of goverenments and leaders need to be based on the conditions they confront as events unfold.

    The conditions Hitler and the Reich faced in 1939 when the issue was limited to German-Polish relations regarding the murdering of Germans in the Corridor, the position of Danzig that its population was seeking to return to the Reich that the Poles were seeking to undermine by sending armed police into its territory, and custom free passage across the Corridor between German territory it divided were absolute different that the conditions he faced and had to respond to after the British French declaration of war and the British continuing the war after the insolent Poles junta had been silenced by its defeat.

    And the steps he took when faced with that condition prove nothing at all about his having at the outset wanting to take over all of Poland and was merely using the conditions in play before the invasion as merely as a ruse to implement hidden long term plans that included conquering all of Poland.

    And to top off your nonsense, you ask:

    Why you think that Germany had right to expand but other countries had no right to self-defence?

    “Except, of course, there was no Poland as a governmental entity in the modern sense that you are using the term.

    And there were elected kings of Poland from only 1572 through 1795 (just over 200 years) (…)”

    You missed Piast dynasty in Poland – 966-1370 and Jagiellonian dynasty in Poland – 1385-1572 (personal union of Poland and Lithuania- it means the same king in both countries: Kingdom of Poland and Grand Duchy of Lithuania).
    Elected kings in “Poland” (in fact in Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth or Republic of Both Nations)- 1572-1795 you cited correctly.

    Major regional conflicts in Poland were settled till XIII century. As far as I know, the last big region of Poland- Mazovia* (area around Warsaw) was formally incorporated into Kingdom of Poland in 1526 (although in fact it was strongly connected to Poland much earlier).

    Anyway, in XVI century Kingdom of Poland was quite well united. In contrary to Germany which were unable to unite untill XIX century.

    “The conditions Hitler and the Reich faced in 1939 when the issue was limited to German-Polish relations regarding the murdering of Germans in the Corridor,(…)”

    You have no proofs (mass graves etc.) that German innocent civilians (it means: not spies, not saboteurs, not common criminals) were deliberately killed in 1939 (or shortly before) by Poles (maybe except Bloody Sunday** in Bydgoszcz (Bromberg) on 3-4 September 1939 where 300 Germans were killed but remember that Germans killed over 1,000-3,000 Poles in retaliation).

    ” [Me]: Why you think that Germany had right to expand but other countries had no right to self-defence?

    To prove what a fraudulent challenge you pose that has no basis in fact, post any statement I have made that expressly asserted what you claim I said.”

    Straw man fallacy?

    You agree that other countries have right to self-defence? Right?
    Self-defence means also preemptive attack.
    Just like Germans in (alleged ) self-defence made an preemptive attack on Poland.

    Do you agree that other nations have right to self-defence including preemptive attack ?

    Unless you don’t answer the simple question I will treat you like a manipulator.

    “So anyone making your extravagantly ridiculous claims about historical developments that is the basis for your declarations deserves no further consideration as anyone having anything worthwhile to say on any subject.”

    You didn’t answer simple question why PoznaÅ„ (Posen) region possessed, governed and populated by Poles by over 800 years is an eternal German territory.

    ** “Bloody Sunday”
    “Bloody Sunday (German: Bromberger Blutsonntag; Polish: Krwawa niedziela) was a sequence of violent events that took place in Bydgoszcz (German: Bromberg), a Polish city with a sizable German minority, between 3 and 4 September 1939, during the German invasion of Poland.
    “After German Selbstschutz snipers fired on retreating Polish troops, there was a Polish reaction against the German minority and then the retaliatory execution of Polish hostages by the Wehrmacht and Selbstschutz, after the fall of the city. All these events resulted in the deaths of both German and Polish civilians. The Polish Institute of National Remembrance found and confirmed 254 Lutheran victims, assumed to be German civilians, and 86 Catholic victims, assumed to be Polish civilians, as well as 20 Polish soldiers. Approximately 600–800 Polish hostages were shot in a mass execution in the aftermath of the fall of the city. “

    “After the Germans took over the city, they killed 1,200–3,000 Polish civilians in retaliation, as part of Operation Tannenberg.”

    You know what Fufu, how lands were divided up between what nobles and people even two hundred much less five hundred or a thousand years go doesn't add up to a thimble-full of shit.

    In any case, territorial boundaries are not sacrosanct and divinely ordained. They are made and unmade by humans based and the strength of the contending parties and their willing to reach settlements peacefully or by resorting to force.

    And the key to resorting to force is that once you appeal your case to heaven ., there is no other court you can go go and the result is at least temporarily final until the parties are ready for the next go around.

    And then at each juncture, the question is who precipitated the event for what purpose, and what alternatives there were for a peaceful resolution that accommodated the interest of all parties rather than someone creating conditions that left people only the choice of fighting or surrendering to the demands the conditions the party created imposed on them.

    It all comes back to the principle the Spartan propounded when a city state pleaded with them to forebear with their demands in the name of justice, to which the Spartan responded: "The strong do as they will, and the weak duffer as they must," at least until the worm turns.

    That being so, the Carthaginian peace the Romans imposed on Carthage is the only option the strong have to prevent the weak from ever rising up against them.

    The fact is that it was the UK-US conspiracy to crush Germany as an economic competitor that produce both WWI and WWII. They succeeded and were thereby able to make up the lies by which they could claim it was the Germans who were responsible for all of it, when it was they who set the stage for the play that followed in each case.

    The worm is now turning, and the results are unlikely to be pretty. It is, however becoming crystal clear the world has had it with the phony rules based order the US empire is seeking to impose on the world.

    As a result, a new rules based order is emerging that will put an end to the US Empire.

    My Little Bunny fufu, please read this:

    Wayne Lutton:

    Pope Innocent XI called for a Holy Alliance of Christian princes to resist the Muslim horde. The author portrays Innocent as a true Defender of the West who “never slackened since the day of his election†(in 1676) to organize a Crusade against the Sultan. Innocent pledged the revenues of the church to help raise an army.

    King John Sobieski III of Poland, a veteran of the wars against the Turks, was willing to lead a contingent in support of the Habsburgs. But he had to have the unanimous approval of the Polish Diet. Louis XIV’s agents tried to bribe key members into vetoing the proposal. The papal nuncio, Pallavicini, was ordered by Innocent XI to use his powers, including those of his purse, to outbid the French. This they managed, though just barely. King John then set about to raise an army of 40,000.

    While Kara Mustafa’s savage Tartar allies pillaged the surrounding countryside, the Turkish engineers went about the business of constructing siege lines and undermining the city’s defenses. Mustafa’s great gamble nearly succeeded. Dysentery, considered by the author “the Turks’ strongest ally,†spread fast among the soldiers and remaining civilian population of Vienna. The Muslims were on the verge of breaching the last defensive works, when, on September 9, it was announced that the relief force was assembling nearby.

    Commanded by King John Sobieski, and including valuable reinforcements from Bavaria, Franconia, Thuringia, and Saxony, the allies attacked the Turks on September 12, a Sunday. Writes Stoye “At last the hour was reached when the Christian army, to use the emphatic language of a contemporary Turkish writer, became a flood of black pitch coming down the mountain, consuming everything it touched.†The next day, Sobieski made his victorious entry into Vienna, in advance of Emperor Leopold, to the acclamation of the grateful Viennese public.

    In what has been dubbed the Last of the Crusades (from 1683-1699), Poland, Hungary, Austria, the Papal States, and such Mediterranean powers as Savoy, continued to exercise military pressure against the Turks.

    You might be interested in this observation by Dr. William Pierce. He made a few claims in his writing that seemed a bit far-fetched when I began reading his work; every time I went to “fact-check†him, he was proved correct. This essay excerpt includes observations on their habits within gentile society:

    Lest I seem like a hypocrite, I should tell you that I am not denigrating the Jews because they value their own lives quite differently from the lives of non-Jews. I am not denigrating the Jews for not being the egalitarians they pretend to be. I am denigrating them for pretending to be what they are not. No one in his right mind is an egalitarian. The members of every tribe that will survive very long on this planet value the lives of their fellow tribesmen above the lives of those who are not members of the tribe. Judaism is a survival-oriented religion. Christianity is not. Perhaps a more meaningful and relevant difference between the two religions is that Judaism is a religion for survival in a multicultural society. It is a religion for governing the behavior of a Jewish minority in the presence of a non-Jewish majority. Christianity, on the other hand, is a religion for governing the behavior of Christians in a homogeneous Christian society. In a multicultural society it becomes suicidal. Judaism makes very clear distinctions between Jews and non-Jews, and the rules are different for the way a Jew should behave toward his fellow Jews and the way he should behave toward non-Jews: quite different. In Christianity the rules are the same for everybody. That’s an important distinction, and it’s important for us to understand it. It’s important for the minority of Christians who aren’t lemmings to understand it too.

    So again, I don’t denigrate Jews because they don’t believe in treating everyone the same. They want to survive, and there’s nothing wrong with wanting to survive. What’s pathological about the Jews is that they are constituted for existing as a predatory minority in a non-Jewish society. Judaism is a religion for predators. Christianity is a religion for pacifists. Judaism encourages deception. Christianity insists on truthfulness. Each is suited to a specific sort of environment. The Jews, through their control of the mass media of news and entertainment, have deliberately changed the environment in America to suit themselves, to enhance their own survivability at the expense of the non-Jewish majority. That’s what they always do everywhere that they are allowed to get away with it. That is their nature. That is why they often are successful, and it also is the reason why they are so hated and always have been. It is for good reason that we have the very well-known and often-used terms “anti-Semite†and “anti-Semitic,†but don’t have equivalent terms for other ethnic groups. “Anti-Semite,†of course, is a bit of a misnomer. It doesn’t mean a person who doesn’t like Arabs or other Semites; it means only a person who doesn’t like Jews. There is no term “anti-Buddhist†or “anti-Hindu,†even though there are far more Buddhists and Hindus in the world than Jews. Believe me, the Jews are special. They are unique.

    We may have conflicts with other groups — we may be threatened by other groups — but no other group has ever threatened our existence in the way we are threatened by the Jews. Being predatory by nature may give the Jews certain survival advantages, just as it tends to get them into trouble a lot more often than is the case for most other groups. It also makes it very difficult for them to have a “normal†mode of existence: that is, to live only among themselves, instead of as a minority among non-Jews.

    Replies: @The Old Philosopher

    Thanks for posting, spot on analysis and explanation of what it takes for any group to survive in competition with others involving the existential question of acquiring and maintining the resources necessary for any group to survive.

    His key point that accounts for an essential condition for survivial is:

    The members of every tribe that will survive very long on this planet value the lives of their fellow tribesmen above the lives of those who are not members of the tribe. Judaism is a survival-oriented religion. Christianity is not.

    The members of any group that doesn’t is consigned to extinction. Like the do-gooders in American wanting to provide resources and services for illegal immigrants they deny to their fellow American.

    There is no recovering from this unless and until those in power who support such treason are placed where they belong with no way back.

    Wells' Second World War breaks out in January 1940 with a European conflagration from the flashpoint of a violent clash between Germans and Poles at Danzig - closely matching the actual outbreak of WWII.

    Probably related, I've posted before about how there were at least three major Anglosphere produced movies ie High Treason (1929), Men Must Fight (1933), and Things to Come (1936), which told there audiences that a future world war would be taking place no later than the specific year of '1940', with Germany (generally) being presented as a future primary 'enemy'.

    Indeed. That’s what many claim; when you read the 14 Point Facade, the Treaty, and then learn the conditions under which it was obtained, it’s clear peace was not the objective.

    The use of the cinema was something I recently learned that occurred prior to WW2 as a primer for war. I used to think western nations were above that nonsense. It’s a shame, as art can be such a powerful source for good in society; I think “The Family Man†was such a powerful film with a thoughtful message and enough silliness to make it rather enjoyable to watch.

    No, he did not. Hitler's goes on endlessly about the need for the Aryan race to expand its living space. He maintains that Slavic eastern Europe, especially Russia, is the logical place for the Aryan population to expand. There is nothing which he ever says about a "nation" keeping within some kind of borders. His view is that the construct of a "nation-state" only exists to facilitate racial interests, where the interests of the race require an outlet for steady territorial expansion. The function of the nation is to secure that expansion of the race.

    All of this laid out multiple times in Mein Kampf, the Second Book, and multiple speeches, many of which are cited by Irving in The War Path and Hitler's War. No honest reading of Hitler's own words would support the description which you've given.

    As usual, you and your ilk take statements out of context, nor do you ascribe speech or actions, once perfectly acceptable in pro-English/pro-American leaders, aka pro-Jewish stooges, as perfectly reasonable for this particular German leader (although America’s ruination via Jewish influence is more recent – Mr. Franklin, who did call Germans “swarthy,†said, don’t let Jews in, for the love of God! – I’m sure he’s rolling in his grave, recanting his insults to Germans, as he rolls…)

Be proud, but do NOT look upon the image of Christ, as that Christian pastor hides your ungrateful, prideful self from Evil Nazis, who unfairly claim we Jews are destructive to western society! But, remember…don’t cross yourself, they are all cattle – even the best of them, Jesus is boiling in excrement, they destroyed our Temple! it’s ok to steal from a gentile, do NOT let them read the Talmud!….said every Rabbi, ever.

    Pro-European = used to be good, ok to expand territory during eras of international expansion and exploration, ok to share technology, BUT then, Germany = bad. Rest of Europe = bad. Colonizers, slavers, bigots, racists, women are baby-making slaves to their men, let the “negrification†occur, and enjoy gang-rape, robbery, looting, rap music, burning cities, failing schools, over-vaccination containing diseased materials, dual Israeli citizens, wars for Israel, enormous subsidies to Israel, all courtesy of Jewish = good…..said Adolf Hitler, rather presciently.

    Did I drift a bit off topic? Not really; it’s all related to Hitler’s defeat. I know you don’t like it, but it is possible to evaluate, analyze, and contrast offensive actions, defensive actions, and changes to objectives due to changing circumstances.

    (From Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf (1924) – From Volume II, Section 14).

    […] State boundaries are made by man and changed by man.

    The fact that a nation has succeeded in acquiring an undue amount of soil constitutes no higher obligation that it should be recognized eternally. At most it proves the strength of the conquerors and the weakness of the nations. And in this case, right lies in this strength alone. If the German nation today, penned into an impossible area, faces a lamentable future, this is no more a commandment of Fate than revolt against this state of affairs constitutes an affront to Fate. No more than any higher power has promised another nation more territory than the Gerrnan nation, or is offended by the fact of this unjust distribution of the soil. Just as our ancestors did not receive the soil on which we live today as a gift from Heaven, but had to fight for it at the risk of their lives, in the future no folkish grace will win soil for us and hence life for our people, but only the might of a victorious sword.

    Much as all of us today recognize the necessity of a reckoning with France, it would remain ineffectual in the long run if it represented the whole of our aim in foreign policy. It can and will achieve meaning only if it offers the rear cover for an enlargement of our people’s living space in Europe. For it is not in colonial acquisitions that we must see the solution of this problem, but exclusively in the acquisition of a territory for settlement, which will enhance the area of the mother country, and hence not only keep the new settlers in the most intimate community with the land of their origin, but secure for the total area those advantages which lie in its unified magnitude.

    The folkish movement must not be the champion of other peoples, but the vanguard fighter of its own. Otherwise it is superfluous and above all has no right to sulk about the past. For in that case it is behaving in exactly tbe same wav. The old German policy was wrongly determined by dynastic considerations, and the future policy must not be directed by cosmopolitan folkish drivel. In particular, we are not constables guarding the well-known ‘poor little nations,’ but soldiers of our own nation.

    But we National Socialists must go further. The right to possess soil can become a duty if without extension of its soil a great nation seems doomed to destruction. And most especially when not some little negro nation or other is involved, but the Germanic mother of life, which has given the present-day world its cultural picture. Germany will either be a world power or there will be no Germany. And for world power she needs that magnitude which will give her the position she needs in the present period, and life to her citizens.

    There's nothing out of context about the fact that Hitler's ambitions for living space meant that he was aiming to thrust aside any kind of national borders wherever it suited him. He avoided a conflict with Mussolini over South Tyrol, even though a strict classical reading of national frontiers could have been made to justify a conflict with Italy. Yet he had resolved that the place for an expanding Aryan race was in eastern Europe, and hence conflict with Italy was best avoided. Meanwhile, and Slavic governments, even if the Czarist had somehow managed to survive into the 1940s by a historical accident, would have had to come into conflict with Hitler's lebensraum agenda.

    That is exactly how things could have ended, if Hitler had not occupied Czechia. You don't seem to grasp the implications of the bits and pieces which you've randomly selected here. If Hitler had never carried out his push on Czechoslovakia in March 14-16, 1939, then there probably would have been a resolution achieved over Danzig between Germany and Poland. Once Hitler had violated the Munich Agreement, then it became obvious that no Polish government could ever trust a deal which Hitler pretended to sign over Danzig.

    Replies: @Tiptoethrutulips

    Bits and pieces? I read the entire applicable text; I randomly selected bits and pieces for convenience.

    Czechoslovakia was not a “naturally†established country. Are you suggesting that the Czechoslovakian authorities were not perturbed over a foreigner, Chamberlain, deciding on territory annexation on their behalf? Hitler wanted former German territory, which was illegally taken via a dubiously obtained treaty, returned to Germany. I’m sure the Czechs caused no trouble, whatsoever, over an agreement, for which they felt no real need to conform, as they were not consulted. Didn’t Churchill say, about Chamberlain, “You chose dishonor and you will have war.†Yes, he did. Were the Soviets mucking about with the Czechs? Did the Soviets burn and hang Chamberlain in effigy over the Munich Agreement? How much Sabre rattling was Hitler meant to ignore?
    In light of the rather lengthy “bits & pieces†highlighted below regarding Poland, and her often perfidious conduct during WW1, explain to me why Poland was entitled to the territory granted to her? And, by an illegally acquired treaty, no less. (Note how the Poles turned on the Austrians, who had been their benefactors.)

    From US Department of State:

    “The Allied reply stated that the German language showed “some want of appreciation of the true situation†(ibid., p. 950). The arrangements for Danzig, which had been framed “with the most scrupulous careâ€, were intended to restore the city to the position which it had occupied for so many centuries as the port of Poland. Poland justly claimed that “the control and development of the port which is her sole opening to the sea shall be in her hands and that the communications between it and Poland shall not be subjected to any foreign controlâ€.â€

    (It is universally accepted that Danzig was entirely German in 1918. How far back in time do we go to rectify past actions? For Jews, it’s thousands of years, which is why they won’t stop until Amalek is utterly destroyed.)

    From the International Encyclopedia of the First World War:

    At the beginning of the 20th century, the political status of the territories inhabited by the Poles differed greatly. Due to the partition of Poland at the end of the 18th century, Poles lived in three different states under varying political, social, economic, and cultural conditions on the eve of the Great War. In Russian-Poland, also called Congress-Poland, authorities conducted a process of Russification. The Polish language was not allowed in the public sphere, including in contact with authorities.[3]
    Many Poles who did not want to submit to these conditions moved to Galicia, also referred to as Austrian-Poland, where the political atmosphere was completely different. Poles living under Francis Joseph I, Emperor of Austria (1830-1916) were in a much better position than their compatriots in Russian-Poland, subjects of Nicholas II, Emperor of Russia (1868-1918). Since 1860, Galicia had enjoyed extensive political and cultural autonomy, with a local parliament in Lviv (Lwów), municipal corporations, and guaranteed citizens’ rights such as freedom of press, speech, and demonstration, and the right to establish political parties. Administrative, education, and judicial systems were polonized. Polish culture flourished and was able to develop without any political obstacles. Poles enjoyed a privileged status, both politically and economically dominating other ethnic and religious groups such as the Ruthenians/Ukrainians and the Jews, who together made up more than half the population of Galicia.[4]
    The harshest restrictions placed upon Polish national life occurred in Prussian-Poland, where a ruthless process of Germanization was conducted. The Polish language was forbidden in the administration, in schools, and in the judiciary system. Germans were most hated by the Poles in the years leading up to the war.[5] […]
    In June 1908, Polish radicals connected to the military branch of the Polish Socialist Party established the Union of Active Fight (Związek Walki Czynnej, ZWC). The Austrian government discreetly tolerated this secret military organization. Its main aim was to train military commanders for a new national Polish army, in preparation for the next anti-Russian uprising in Russian-Poland. […] Events in southeastern Europe generated strong impulses to intensify such activity. In October 1912, influenced by Balkan complications and on the eve of an anticipated war between Russia and Austria-Hungary, a delegation consisting of a handful of Polish political parties established an umbrella organization named The Provisional Commission of Parties Striving for Independence (Tymczasowa Komisja Skonfederowanych Stronnictw Niepodległościowych). Its aim was the coordination of activities to reestablish Polish statehood with support from Austria-Hungary.[8] […]

    The war, which finally erupted in the summer of 1914, surprised Poles as well as other European societies. At this point, Poles displayed loyalty toward their own states – Russia, Austria-Hungary, and Germany – respectively. […]

    However, in the first stage of the Great War the most active Polish political camp worked in Austria-Hungry. The Polish national activists summoned the First Company under the command of socialist activist Józef Piłsudski (1867-1935) in Cracow and, immediately after the outbreak of hostilities with Russia, crossed the Russian border with the aim of provoking a massive anti-Russian uprising.[…] (colluding with the enemies, were they? How will they be punished?)

    This was, however, incomparable to the roughly 3.5 million Polish soldiers who were mobilized to serve in the regular forces of the Russian, Austro-Hungarian, and German armies. […] From the Polish perspective, the First War could be characterized as a Polish civil war.

    Point thirteen from Woodrow Wilson’s (1856-1924) congressional speech on 8 January 1918 assumed that as a result of the war, an independent Poland, consisting of all ethnic Polish territories and having access to the sea, would be reestablished. This assumption was repeated on 3 June 1918 in the Versailles Declaration during one of the Allied conferences as well as in many unilateral statements of Western allies. In the final two years of the war, Polish sympathies had shifted in favor of the Entente, which promised better conditions to the Poles than the Central Powers.[26] […]

    In Galicia, respect toward Austrian authorities steadily declined. In summer and early autumn of 1918, demoralized and helpless Austrian authorities in Galicia fell into a state of inertia, their decisions generally ignored by the Polish populace. In many parts of Galicia, inhabitants were terrorized by bands of deserters, hidden in forest complexes. Authorities did not have enough power or energy to fight them off and thus they were forced to tolerate them.[31]

    In contrast to the situation in Galicia and in spite of losing the war, the political crisis, and revolutionary upheavals in Germany, German administration in Prussian-Poland stood firm, fulfilled its duties, and maintained formal control. German officials did not consider voluntarily resigning from these terrains in favor of a Polish state, especially because these territories were mixed in population. Germans troops, which came back from the former Russian Empire in November 1918, still regarded the 1914 border as valid. In December 1918, the provincial parliament of the Great Poland region was summoned to Poznań to decide the region’s political future. At the end of the month, as a result of Ignacy Paderewski’s arrival, an anti-German uprising erupted in Great Poland. Poles controlled the greatest part of the region until the ceasefire in February 1919.[35] […]
    It must be emphasized that military operations did not end on Polish soil in November 1918, but rather were followed by a border struggle in the new state, which continued for the next three years. Fighting took place in many areas: Eastern Galicia (war with the Ukrainians, October 1918 to July 1919), Great Poland (anti-German uprising, December 1918 to February 1919), Upper Silesia (three anti-German uprisings, 1919-1921), the raid on the Vilnius region (October 1920), and the war with Soviet Russia (until March 1921). From the Polish perspective, the First World War should be treated together with the above mentioned border struggles, which did not end until the signing of the Polish-Soviet Peace Treaty in Riga on 18 March 1921.[38] In the following years Poland remained isolated in the region and relations with the majority of its neighbors, with the exception of Romania and Latvia, remained cool or absolutely frozen, full of either suspicion and distrust or only lightly concealed hostility.

    Anything which involves a jump from October 1938 to April 1939 can at best be described as "bits and pieces." The full documentary record shows that Hitler never intended to adhere to the Munich Agreement, and this is totally independent of whether one considers the Czechoslovak state to be "natural." If there had been no determined effort by Hitler to force his terms of occupation on Czechia, then it's quite plausible that the Czechoslovak state might have dissolved itself in 1941 without any foreign military occupation. Something like what happened in 1993. But that was not Hitler's agenda. His aim was to gain a hold over Czechoslovakia, from which he could impose terms on Poland, and launch the greater drive to the east. A leap from October 1938 (when the Munich Agreement was less than a month old) to April 1939 (when it was clearly dead) skips over the crucial intermediary events.

    Which Pew Survey did you consult for this conclusion?

    Everyone knows the difference between income vs. capital. That’s not exactly the issue. The issue is the official narratives of Jewish oppression, restrictions, exclusions, ad nauseam….yet, spectacular wealth accrual by the Rothschilds, Sassoons, Marks & Spencer, et al, and locally, by their own admission, they describe prosperous live, always kvetching about mistreatment, never a word of appreciation for Gentile nations.

    From the Jewish Virtual Library:

    “In Hungary

    The Hungarian wool trade was conducted almost entirely by Jews, who were thus in a position to establish textile industries. Adolf and Heinrich Kohner, originally Moravian feather merchants, established Hungary's first modern wool textile factories. Other notable textile manufacturers were Robert Szurday (originally Weiss, ennobled in 1899), Leo Buday (originally Goldberger), and Samuel Goldberger (ennobled in 1867).

    Bohemia and Moravia

    These areas, the most industrialized in the Hapsburg Empire, also produced most of its textiles, and Jews played a prominent role in this industry. From the 17th century Jews had been almost the sole dealers in raw wool, from the peasants together with furs, hides, livestock, and other agricultural produce.â€

    Far be it from me to criticize Jewish industriousness, but it’s the Jewish international capital that enables local Jews to corner markets by importing materials sourced overseas using foreign labor, using Jewish shipping magnates, who achieved prominence by the same methods - this happens in multiple industries, and since they care NOT for the gentile countries they inhabit, they make no attempt to share or include gentiles in this prosperity, And they use their international networks to thwart non-Jewish competition. So, the international tycoons make millions, and the local Jewish merchants draw tremendous income from their international-money bankrolled businesses.

    It’s not just business where the treachery is observed. Jews flew in to South Africa once the Dutch had built a prosperous society, as their international capital was quite useful for gold/diamond mining; they used English battering rams against the Dutch, of course. Eventually, the Jews agitated for Equality! and human rights for Africans, but once Apartheid fell, they flew like bats out of hell (quite literally) so they wouldn’t have to endure the consequences of their meddling; they retain their mineral interests, of course. Anywho…if you’re Jewish in South Africa today, you can fly straight into the arms of Israel. If you’re Afrikaans or English, you’re mostly stuck.

    The first simplest source to use is simply the record of votes in Weimar elections. You can either look them up on Wiki or else go to pages 982-3 of Alan Bullock, Hitler and Stalin: Parallel Lives. The most pertinent parties to consider here are the National Socialists (NSDAP), the Social Democrats (SPD) and the Communists (KPD). Focusing on the election of May 20, 1928; September 14, 1930; July 31, 1932; and November 6, 1932, gives the voting percentages of:

    NSDAP: 2.6, 18.3, 37.4, 33.1.
    SPD: 29.8, 24.5, 21.6, 20.4.
    KPD: 10.6, 13.1, 14.6, 16.9.

    The July 31 election is the only one where the percentage vote for the NSDAP managed to outstrip the combined votes for the SPD and KPD. Even here it should be emphasized that there was no falling off in the votes for the latter two parties. It was just that a sector of middle-class conservatives gave their vote to the NSDAP, allowing the latter to surge to 37.4% (still not a majority vote) before declining again to 33.1. The labor vote continued to go the SPD and KPD right up until the end. But the latter two parties were at each other’s throats in bitter rivalry, which played to the advantage of the NSDAP. In that respect, it was sort of similar to the way that Admiral Kolchak’s coup d’état against the government of Social Revolutionaries in Siberia in 1918 guaranteed the victory of the Bolsheviks in Siberia.

    I would speculate Hitler was much more understanding of a nation’s national interests. As as matter of fact, no speculation is necessary, as he hammered, on and on, about a nation keeping their interests and resources within their borders first, and then seeking mutually beneficial relationships with other nations.

    But it was never his intent to settle conflicts with Czechoslovakia and Poland peacefully without a German expansion to the east. That was why war etupted.
    �
    Is that so? Germania had been around, in one form or another, for centuries, therefore there were Germans, with German interests, all over Central and Eastern-ish Europe. Please tell me about those “ancient†Czechoslovakians. What say you about the Poles, sneaking in to Czechoslovakia, on Hitler’s coattails? How is Czechoslovakia today? You’re right, Hitler had no intention of being the whipping-boy for the English, the vulture-capitalists nor the communists.

    Here’s a tid-bit about German character from the Greensboro News & Record in the USA:

    Now picture this, same time, same war, half a world away. A farm truck stops at the stockade area of the Overseas Replacement Depot (ORD) in Greensboro. A dozen German POWs pile into the back. No guards with guns climb aboard. Off go the prisoners for a day of work on a farm.``Only in America,' as the late journalist and philosopher Harry Golden of Charlotte would say.

    The Germans, it must be said, did good work on Piedmont farms and more than earned the 80 cents a day Uncle Sam paid under the Geneva Convention.

    William Coble's barn stands as evidence of German craftsmanship. It's so picturesque that artists have painted it through the years. […] From William Coble's farm, the POWs crossed West Friendly Avenue and dismantled the top of a barn on the Lindley farm. They brought it across the road and up the hill to the Coble Farm, then called Sunnyhill Dairy, and rebuilt it on terra cotta walls.

    Wasn't she scared looking out the back door at enemy soldiers 100 yards away? Not a bit, says Ruth Coble, William Coble's wife.

    ``They were as nice of people as you would ever want to see,' she remembers.

    Every account I read of German POWs in America is the same: they worked hard; they were well-mannered; they caused no trouble; they didn’t seem like enemies nor as they were portrayed by the Media.

    I have compared numerous accounts from citizens within “Nazi†occupied areas and Bolshevik/Soviet occupied areas. My conclusion? Excuse my language, but you’re full of shit, McNally. Their national character is obvious. I’m not saying they were pacifists nor never overly aggressive, but the monsters were/are exactly who Hitler said they were/are.

    No, he did not. Hitler’s goes on endlessly about the need for the Aryan race to expand its living space. He maintains that Slavic eastern Europe, especially Russia, is the logical place for the Aryan population to expand. There is nothing which he ever says about a “nation” keeping within some kind of borders. His view is that the construct of a “nation-state” only exists to facilitate racial interests, where the interests of the race require an outlet for steady territorial expansion. The function of the nation is to secure that expansion of the race.

    All of this laid out multiple times in Mein Kampf, the Second Book, and multiple speeches, many of which are cited by Irving in The War Path and Hitler’s War. No honest reading of Hitler’s own words would support the description which you’ve given.

    As usual, you and your ilk take statements out of context, nor do you ascribe speech or actions, once perfectly acceptable in pro-English/pro-American leaders, aka pro-Jewish stooges, as perfectly reasonable for this particular German leader (although America’s ruination via Jewish influence is more recent - Mr. Franklin, who did call Germans “swarthy,†said, don’t let Jews in, for the love of God! - I’m sure he’s rolling in his grave, recanting his insults to Germans, as he rolls…)

    Pro-Jewish = good. You are a Jew! Be proud, but do NOT look upon the image of Christ, as that Christian pastor hides your ungrateful, prideful self from Evil Nazis, who unfairly claim we Jews are destructive to western society! But, remember…don’t cross yourself, they are all cattle - even the best of them, Jesus is boiling in excrement, they destroyed our Temple! it’s ok to steal from a gentile, do NOT let them read the Talmud!….said every Rabbi, ever.

    Pro-European = used to be good, ok to expand territory during eras of international expansion and exploration, ok to share technology, BUT then, Germany = bad. Rest of Europe = bad. Colonizers, slavers, bigots, racists, women are baby-making slaves to their men, let the “negrification†occur, and enjoy gang-rape, robbery, looting, rap music, burning cities, failing schools, over-vaccination containing diseased materials, dual Israeli citizens, wars for Israel, enormous subsidies to Israel, all courtesy of Jewish = good…..said Adolf Hitler, rather presciently.

    Did I drift a bit off topic? Not really; it’s all related to Hitler’s defeat. I know you don’t like it, but it is possible to evaluate, analyze, and contrast offensive actions, defensive actions, and changes to objectives due to changing circumstances.

    (From Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf (1924) - From Volume II, Section 14).

    […] State boundaries are made by man and changed by man.

    The fact that a nation has succeeded in acquiring an undue amount of soil constitutes no higher obligation that it should be recognized eternally. At most it proves the strength of the conquerors and the weakness of the nations. And in this case, right lies in this strength alone. If the German nation today, penned into an impossible area, faces a lamentable future, this is no more a commandment of Fate than revolt against this state of affairs constitutes an affront to Fate. No more than any higher power has promised another nation more territory than the Gerrnan nation, or is offended by the fact of this unjust distribution of the soil. Just as our ancestors did not receive the soil on which we live today as a gift from Heaven, but had to fight for it at the risk of their lives, in the future no folkish grace will win soil for us and hence life for our people, but only the might of a victorious sword.

    Much as all of us today recognize the necessity of a reckoning with France, it would remain ineffectual in the long run if it represented the whole of our aim in foreign policy. It can and will achieve meaning only if it offers the rear cover for an enlargement of our people's living space in Europe. For it is not in colonial acquisitions that we must see the solution of this problem, but exclusively in the acquisition of a territory for settlement, which will enhance the area of the mother country, and hence not only keep the new settlers in the most intimate community with the land of their origin, but secure for the total area those advantages which lie in its unified magnitude.

    The folkish movement must not be the champion of other peoples, but the vanguard fighter of its own. Otherwise it is superfluous and above all has no right to sulk about the past. For in that case it is behaving in exactly tbe same wav. The old German policy was wrongly determined by dynastic considerations, and the future policy must not be directed by cosmopolitan folkish drivel. In particular, we are not constables guarding the well-known 'poor little nations,' but soldiers of our own nation.

    But we National Socialists must go further. The right to possess soil can become a duty if without extension of its soil a great nation seems doomed to destruction. And most especially when not some little negro nation or other is involved, but the Germanic mother of life, which has given the present-day world its cultural picture. Germany will either be a world power or there will be no Germany. And for world power she needs that magnitude which will give her the position she needs in the present period, and life to her citizens.

    You might be interested in this observation by Dr. William Pierce. He made a few claims in his writing that seemed a bit far-fetched when I began reading his work; every time I went to “fact-check†him, he was proved correct. This essay excerpt includes observations on their habits within gentile society:

    Lest I seem like a hypocrite, I should tell you that I am not denigrating the Jews because they value their own lives quite differently from the lives of non-Jews. I am not denigrating the Jews for not being the egalitarians they pretend to be. I am denigrating them for pretending to be what they are not. No one in his right mind is an egalitarian. The members of every tribe that will survive very long on this planet value the lives of their fellow tribesmen above the lives of those who are not members of the tribe. Judaism is a survival-oriented religion. Christianity is not. Perhaps a more meaningful and relevant difference between the two religions is that Judaism is a religion for survival in a multicultural society. It is a religion for governing the behavior of a Jewish minority in the presence of a non-Jewish majority. Christianity, on the other hand, is a religion for governing the behavior of Christians in a homogeneous Christian society. In a multicultural society it becomes suicidal. Judaism makes very clear distinctions between Jews and non-Jews, and the rules are different for the way a Jew should behave toward his fellow Jews and the way he should behave toward non-Jews: quite different. In Christianity the rules are the same for everybody. That’s an important distinction, and it’s important for us to understand it. It’s important for the minority of Christians who aren’t lemmings to understand it too.

    So again, I don’t denigrate Jews because they don’t believe in treating everyone the same. They want to survive, and there’s nothing wrong with wanting to survive. What’s pathological about the Jews is that they are constituted for existing as a predatory minority in a non-Jewish society. Judaism is a religion for predators. Christianity is a religion for pacifists. Judaism encourages deception. Christianity insists on truthfulness. Each is suited to a specific sort of environment. The Jews, through their control of the mass media of news and entertainment, have deliberately changed the environment in America to suit themselves, to enhance their own survivability at the expense of the non-Jewish majority. That’s what they always do everywhere that they are allowed to get away with it. That is their nature. That is why they often are successful, and it also is the reason why they are so hated and always have been. It is for good reason that we have the very well-known and often-used terms “anti-Semite†and “anti-Semitic,†but don’t have equivalent terms for other ethnic groups. “Anti-Semite,†of course, is a bit of a misnomer. It doesn’t mean a person who doesn’t like Arabs or other Semites; it means only a person who doesn’t like Jews. There is no term “anti-Buddhist†or “anti-Hindu,†even though there are far more Buddhists and Hindus in the world than Jews. Believe me, the Jews are special. They are unique.

    We may have conflicts with other groups — we may be threatened by other groups — but no other group has ever threatened our existence in the way we are threatened by the Jews. Being predatory by nature may give the Jews certain survival advantages, just as it tends to get them into trouble a lot more often than is the case for most other groups. It also makes it very difficult for them to have a “normal†mode of existence: that is, to live only among themselves, instead of as a minority among non-Jews.

    Thanks for posting, spot on analysis and explanation of what it takes for any group to survive in competition with others involving the existential question of acquiring and maintining the resources necessary for any group to survive.

    His key point that accounts for an essential condition for survivial is:

    The members of every tribe that will survive very long on this planet value the lives of their fellow tribesmen above the lives of those who are not members of the tribe. Judaism is a survival-oriented religion. Christianity is not.
    �
    The members of any group that doesn't is consigned to extinction. Like the do-gooders in American wanting to provide resources and services for illegal immigrants they deny to their fellow American.

    From the US Department of State, Office of the Historian:

    Section XI.—Free City of Danzig (Art. 100 to 108)
    Notes to Part III, Section XI, Articles 100 to 108

    Danzig

    The surrender of this “purely German Hanseatic city†and “its equally purely German environs†was declared by the German delegation to be “in the sharpest opposition to all the assurances†given by President Wilson, and would “lead to violent resistance and to an enduring state of war in the Eastâ€. Germany therefore rejected “the proposed rape of Danzig†(Foreign Relations, The Paris Peace Conference, 1919, vi, 836). But it was prepared to make Memel, Königsberg, and Danzig free ports in order to assure Poland “a direct outlet to the great highways of the seaâ€, as promised by President Wilson, and to grant the Poles “far-reaching rightsâ€, subject to an agreement concerning the reciprocal use of German and Polish railways and rivers. […] The Free City of Danzig and its relations to Poland became, with the question of German minorities in Poland (see article 91), the casus belli of Germany in September 1939. The “explosion on the part of the military forces which have taken up their position†was set off because of tension, according to the German message of August 31, 1939 to the British Government, owing to “(1) the impossible delineation of frontiers, as fixed by Versailles dictate; (2) the impossible treatment of the minority in the ceded territories†[…]

    On August 12, 1936 the German Chancellor assured the Polish Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs that “Polish rights in the Free City, which he knew and understood, could not suffer the least detriment†from the National Socialists.

    After 1936 the High Commissioner played a minor and decreasing part with respect to Danzig and in Danzig-Polish relations. There was, on the other hand, an increase of German-Polish relations, in which Germany voiced claims on behalf of the Free City but entirely within the bounds of the established regime.

    On November 5, 1937, when the German-Polish minorities declaration (see art. 91) was announced, the German Chancellor formulated his attitude to the Polish Ambassador in three points: There would be no changes in the legal and political position in Danzig; the rights of the Polish population in Danzig would be respected; the rights of Poland in Danzig would be respected. The Chancellor added, according to the Ambassador’s report, that “a surprise step was out [Page 244] of the questionâ€, but he also remarked that “Poland is bound up with Danzigâ€. He reiterated that declaration to the Polish Minister for Foreign Affairs on January 14, 1938. […]

    The German Minister for Foreign Affairs proposed to the Polish Ambassador on October 24, 1938 a general settlement which included the reunion of Danzig with the Reich, Poland being assured of an extraterritorial road, a railroad and a free port, and economic facilities there. Poland would agree to the building of an extraterritorial motor road and railroad line across Pomorze. In his instructions to the Ambassador the Polish Minister for Foreign Affairs on October 31 stated that he was “ready to have final conversations personally with the governing circles of the Reichâ€. […]

    The German Chancellor made a speech to the Reichstag on April 28, 1939, in which he argued that the Treaty of Versailles intentionally “inflicted a most severe wound on Germany†by establishing the Corridor and Danzig in such a way as to prevent understanding between Poland and Germany. The speech was the public frame for a memorandum handed to the Polish Government in which it was asserted that Poland had rejected the German proposals on Danzig and the Corridor and, by assuming the obligations of April 6 with the United Kingdom, which were incompatible with the German-Polish declaration of January 26, 1934, had “arbitrarily and unilaterally rendered this declaration inoperative†[…]

    As to negotiations, the German Führer, in a letter of August 23 to the British Prime Minister, said “Germany was prepared to settle the problem of Danzig and of the Polish Corridor by a very generous proposal, made once only, and by means of negotiationsâ€. This quotation is from the German-English version of the German Foreign Office (Official Documents, No. 456). The original German reads: “Deutschland war bereit, die Frage Danzig und die des Korridors durch einen wahrhaft einmalig grosszügigen Vorschlag auf dem Wege von Verhandlungen zu lösenâ€. The British translation reads: “negotiation on the basis of a proposal of truly unparalleled magnanimityâ€. Any inclination of Poland to negotiate was “effectually destroyed†by the United Kingdom’s guaranty to Poland. Referring to proposed British military mobilization, the Führer wrote: “I must, therefore, inform Your Excellency that in the event of such military measures being taken, I shall order the immediate mobilization of the German armed forces (Wehrmacht)â€.

    So, let me get this straight: The Poles were behaving splendidly and everything was moving along as NOT intended, which means the Poles and Germans were getting along just fine. Adolf Hitler, whilst taking a break from his planned invasion of the USA via South America, decided, what’s with all this peace in Danzig and the Corridor? Why is it that any attempt at negotiations, to circumvent force, by Hitler is “just a ruse,†yet everyone else in the western world is truthful and inordinately concerned with the freedom of people living in places far removed from their sphere of influence? Who is it that considers the Whole World their sphere of influence?

    That is exactly how things could have ended, if Hitler had not occupied Czechia. You don’t seem to grasp the implications of the bits and pieces which you’ve randomly selected here. If Hitler had never carried out his push on Czechoslovakia in March 14-16, 1939, then there probably would have been a resolution achieved over Danzig between Germany and Poland. Once Hitler had violated the Munich Agreement, then it became obvious that no Polish government could ever trust a deal which Hitler pretended to sign over Danzig.

    Bits and pieces? I read the entire applicable text; I randomly selected bits and pieces for convenience.

    Czechoslovakia was not a “naturally†established country. Are you suggesting that the Czechoslovakian authorities were not perturbed over a foreigner, Chamberlain, deciding on territory annexation on their behalf? Hitler wanted former German territory, which was illegally taken via a dubiously obtained treaty, returned to Germany. I’m sure the Czechs caused no trouble, whatsoever, over an agreement, for which they felt no real need to conform, as they were not consulted. Didn’t Churchill say, about Chamberlain, “You chose dishonor and you will have war.†Yes, he did. Were the Soviets mucking about with the Czechs? Did the Soviets burn and hang Chamberlain in effigy over the Munich Agreement? How much Sabre rattling was Hitler meant to ignore?
    In light of the rather lengthy “bits & pieces†highlighted below regarding Poland, and her often perfidious conduct during WW1, explain to me why Poland was entitled to the territory granted to her? And, by an illegally acquired treaty, no less. (Note how the Poles turned on the Austrians, who had been their benefactors.)

    From US Department of State:

    “The Allied reply stated that the German language showed “some want of appreciation of the true situation†(ibid., p. 950). The arrangements for Danzig, which had been framed “with the most scrupulous careâ€, were intended to restore the city to the position which it had occupied for so many centuries as the port of Poland. Poland justly claimed that “the control and development of the port which is her sole opening to the sea shall be in her hands and that the communications between it and Poland shall not be subjected to any foreign controlâ€.â€

    (It is universally accepted that Danzig was entirely German in 1918. How far back in time do we go to rectify past actions? For Jews, it’s thousands of years, which is why they won’t stop until Amalek is utterly destroyed.)

    From the International Encyclopedia of the First World War:

    At the beginning of the 20th century, the political status of the territories inhabited by the Poles differed greatly. Due to the partition of Poland at the end of the 18th century, Poles lived in three different states under varying political, social, economic, and cultural conditions on the eve of the Great War. In Russian-Poland, also called Congress-Poland, authorities conducted a process of Russification. The Polish language was not allowed in the public sphere, including in contact with authorities.[3]
    Many Poles who did not want to submit to these conditions moved to Galicia, also referred to as Austrian-Poland, where the political atmosphere was completely different. Poles living under Francis Joseph I, Emperor of Austria (1830-1916) were in a much better position than their compatriots in Russian-Poland, subjects of Nicholas II, Emperor of Russia (1868-1918). Since 1860, Galicia had enjoyed extensive political and cultural autonomy, with a local parliament in Lviv (Lwów), municipal corporations, and guaranteed citizens’ rights such as freedom of press, speech, and demonstration, and the right to establish political parties. Administrative, education, and judicial systems were polonized. Polish culture flourished and was able to develop without any political obstacles. Poles enjoyed a privileged status, both politically and economically dominating other ethnic and religious groups such as the Ruthenians/Ukrainians and the Jews, who together made up more than half the population of Galicia.[4]
    The harshest restrictions placed upon Polish national life occurred in Prussian-Poland, where a ruthless process of Germanization was conducted. The Polish language was forbidden in the administration, in schools, and in the judiciary system. Germans were most hated by the Poles in the years leading up to the war.[5] […]
    In June 1908, Polish radicals connected to the military branch of the Polish Socialist Party established the Union of Active Fight (Związek Walki Czynnej, ZWC). The Austrian government discreetly tolerated this secret military organization. Its main aim was to train military commanders for a new national Polish army, in preparation for the next anti-Russian uprising in Russian-Poland. […] Events in southeastern Europe generated strong impulses to intensify such activity. In October 1912, influenced by Balkan complications and on the eve of an anticipated war between Russia and Austria-Hungary, a delegation consisting of a handful of Polish political parties established an umbrella organization named The Provisional Commission of Parties Striving for Independence (Tymczasowa Komisja Skonfederowanych Stronnictw Niepodległościowych). Its aim was the coordination of activities to reestablish Polish statehood with support from Austria-Hungary.[8] […]

    The war, which finally erupted in the summer of 1914, surprised Poles as well as other European societies. At this point, Poles displayed loyalty toward their own states – Russia, Austria-Hungary, and Germany – respectively. […]

    However, in the first stage of the Great War the most active Polish political camp worked in Austria-Hungry. The Polish national activists summoned the First Company under the command of socialist activist Józef Piłsudski (1867-1935) in Cracow and, immediately after the outbreak of hostilities with Russia, crossed the Russian border with the aim of provoking a massive anti-Russian uprising.[…] (colluding with the enemies, were they? How will they be punished?)

    This was, however, incomparable to the roughly 3.5 million Polish soldiers who were mobilized to serve in the regular forces of the Russian, Austro-Hungarian, and German armies. […] From the Polish perspective, the First War could be characterized as a Polish civil war.

    Point thirteen from Woodrow Wilson’s (1856-1924) congressional speech on 8 January 1918 assumed that as a result of the war, an independent Poland, consisting of all ethnic Polish territories and having access to the sea, would be reestablished. This assumption was repeated on 3 June 1918 in the Versailles Declaration during one of the Allied conferences as well as in many unilateral statements of Western allies. In the final two years of the war, Polish sympathies had shifted in favor of the Entente, which promised better conditions to the Poles than the Central Powers.[26] […]

    In Galicia, respect toward Austrian authorities steadily declined. In summer and early autumn of 1918, demoralized and helpless Austrian authorities in Galicia fell into a state of inertia, their decisions generally ignored by the Polish populace. In many parts of Galicia, inhabitants were terrorized by bands of deserters, hidden in forest complexes. Authorities did not have enough power or energy to fight them off and thus they were forced to tolerate them.[31]

    In contrast to the situation in Galicia and in spite of losing the war, the political crisis, and revolutionary upheavals in Germany, German administration in Prussian-Poland stood firm, fulfilled its duties, and maintained formal control. German officials did not consider voluntarily resigning from these terrains in favor of a Polish state, especially because these territories were mixed in population. Germans troops, which came back from the former Russian Empire in November 1918, still regarded the 1914 border as valid. In December 1918, the provincial parliament of the Great Poland region was summoned to Poznań to decide the region’s political future. At the end of the month, as a result of Ignacy Paderewski’s arrival, an anti-German uprising erupted in Great Poland. Poles controlled the greatest part of the region until the ceasefire in February 1919.[35] […]
    It must be emphasized that military operations did not end on Polish soil in November 1918, but rather were followed by a border struggle in the new state, which continued for the next three years. Fighting took place in many areas: Eastern Galicia (war with the Ukrainians, October 1918 to July 1919), Great Poland (anti-German uprising, December 1918 to February 1919), Upper Silesia (three anti-German uprisings, 1919-1921), the raid on the Vilnius region (October 1920), and the war with Soviet Russia (until March 1921). From the Polish perspective, the First World War should be treated together with the above mentioned border struggles, which did not end until the signing of the Polish-Soviet Peace Treaty in Riga on 18 March 1921.[38] In the following years Poland remained isolated in the region and relations with the majority of its neighbors, with the exception of Romania and Latvia, remained cool or absolutely frozen, full of either suspicion and distrust or only lightly concealed hostility.

    There were disturbances in 1920, including pogroms against Jews. But none of this has much to do with the crisis of 1939. The Polish government was acutely aware in 1939 that any support from Britain and France which they might receive depended on not starting anything prematurely. It was only after that the German invasion had been launched on September 1 that the pogroms against Germanic Polish citizens started. Specifically:

    —–
    Most notoriously in Bromberg (Bydgoszcz), attacks on Germans on 3 September had the character of a local pogrom… The Germans claimed in November 1939 that 5,400 had been killed in the ‘September Murders’ (including what they dubbed the ‘Bromberg Bloody Sunday’). Then, in February 1940, on Hitler’s own instructions (it was later claimed) this was simply multiplied by around ten-fold and a figure of 58,000 German dead invented. The most reliable estimates put the total number of ethnic Germans killed in outrages, forced marches, bombing and shelling at around 4,000. Terrible though these atrocities were, they were more or less spontaneous outbursts of hatred that took place in the context of panic and fear following the German invasion.
    —–
    — Ian Kershaw, Hitler: 1936-1945, Nemesis, p. 242.

    None of this would have come about if not for the German invasion of Poland. Furthermore, the invasion itself could likely have been avoided if the occupation of Czechia had never taken place, and if Hitler had simply raised the Danzig issue as a diplomatic matter in the way of the Sudetenland in 1938. It was the occupation of Czechia which made a Munich deal impossible over Danzig and led to a war which resulted in the Bromberg pogrom.

    Section XI.—Free City of Danzig (Art. 100 to 108)
    Notes to Part III, Section XI, Articles 100 to 108

    Danzig

    The surrender of this “purely German Hanseatic city†and “its equally purely German environs†was declared by the German delegation to be “in the sharpest opposition to all the assurances†given by President Wilson, and would “lead to violent resistance and to an enduring state of war in the Eastâ€. Germany therefore rejected “the proposed rape of Danzig†(Foreign Relations, The Paris Peace Conference, 1919, vi, 836). But it was prepared to make Memel, Königsberg, and Danzig free ports in order to assure Poland “a direct outlet to the great highways of the seaâ€, as promised by President Wilson, and to grant the Poles “far-reaching rightsâ€, subject to an agreement concerning the reciprocal use of German and Polish railways and rivers. […] The Free City of Danzig and its relations to Poland became, with the question of German minorities in Poland (see article 91), the casus belli of Germany in September 1939. The “explosion on the part of the military forces which have taken up their position†was set off because of tension, according to the German message of August 31, 1939 to the British Government, owing to “(1) the impossible delineation of frontiers, as fixed by Versailles dictate; (2) the impossible treatment of the minority in the ceded territories†[…]

    On August 12, 1936 the German Chancellor assured the Polish Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs that “Polish rights in the Free City, which he knew and understood, could not suffer the least detriment†from the National Socialists.

    After 1936 the High Commissioner played a minor and decreasing part with respect to Danzig and in Danzig-Polish relations. There was, on the other hand, an increase of German-Polish relations, in which Germany voiced claims on behalf of the Free City but entirely within the bounds of the established regime.

    On November 5, 1937, when the German-Polish minorities declaration (see art. 91) was announced, the German Chancellor formulated his attitude to the Polish Ambassador in three points: There would be no changes in the legal and political position in Danzig; the rights of the Polish population in Danzig would be respected; the rights of Poland in Danzig would be respected. The Chancellor added, according to the Ambassador’s report, that “a surprise step was out [Page 244] of the questionâ€, but he also remarked that “Poland is bound up with Danzigâ€. He reiterated that declaration to the Polish Minister for Foreign Affairs on January 14, 1938. […]

    The German Minister for Foreign Affairs proposed to the Polish Ambassador on October 24, 1938 a general settlement which included the reunion of Danzig with the Reich, Poland being assured of an extraterritorial road, a railroad and a free port, and economic facilities there. Poland would agree to the building of an extraterritorial motor road and railroad line across Pomorze. In his instructions to the Ambassador the Polish Minister for Foreign Affairs on October 31 stated that he was “ready to have final conversations personally with the governing circles of the Reichâ€. […]

    The German Chancellor made a speech to the Reichstag on April 28, 1939, in which he argued that the Treaty of Versailles intentionally “inflicted a most severe wound on Germany†by establishing the Corridor and Danzig in such a way as to prevent understanding between Poland and Germany. The speech was the public frame for a memorandum handed to the Polish Government in which it was asserted that Poland had rejected the German proposals on Danzig and the Corridor and, by assuming the obligations of April 6 with the United Kingdom, which were incompatible with the German-Polish declaration of January 26, 1934, had “arbitrarily and unilaterally rendered this declaration inoperative†[…]

    As to negotiations, the German Führer, in a letter of August 23 to the British Prime Minister, said “Germany was prepared to settle the problem of Danzig and of the Polish Corridor by a very generous proposal, made once only, and by means of negotiationsâ€. This quotation is from the German-English version of the German Foreign Office (Official Documents, No. 456). The original German reads: “Deutschland war bereit, die Frage Danzig und die des Korridors durch einen wahrhaft einmalig grosszügigen Vorschlag auf dem Wege von Verhandlungen zu lösenâ€. The British translation reads: “negotiation on the basis of a proposal of truly unparalleled magnanimityâ€. Any inclination of Poland to negotiate was “effectually destroyed†by the United Kingdom’s guaranty to Poland. Referring to proposed British military mobilization, the Führer wrote: “I must, therefore, inform Your Excellency that in the event of such military measures being taken, I shall order the immediate mobilization of the German armed forces (Wehrmacht)â€.

    So, let me get this straight: The Poles were behaving splendidly and everything was moving along as NOT intended, which means the Poles and Germans were getting along just fine. Adolf Hitler, whilst taking a break from his planned invasion of the USA via South America, decided, what’s with all this peace in Danzig and the Corridor? Why is it that any attempt at negotiations, to circumvent force, by Hitler is “just a ruse,†yet everyone else in the western world is truthful and inordinately concerned with the freedom of people living in places far removed from their sphere of influence? Who is it that considers the Whole World their sphere of influence?

    Geez, it’s almost as if early on there were people who (just in case) were deliberately attempting to create political conditions which would ensure the outbreak of a devastating new world war.

    H G Wells, the British establishment author of The Open Conspiracy (1928) and The New World Order (1940) amongst other notable works, apparently readily (and easily) saw this as well.

    In his ‘prophetic’ 1933 novel, The Shape of Things to Come, it is no less than the city of Danzig which kicks WWII off.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Shape_of_Things_to_Come

    Wells’ Second World War breaks out in January 1940 with a European conflagration from the flashpoint of a violent clash between Germans and Poles at Danzig – closely matching the actual outbreak of WWII.

    [MORE]

    Probably related, I’ve posted before about how there were at least three major Anglosphere produced movies ie High Treason (1929), Men Must Fight (1933), and Things to Come (1936), which told there audiences that a future world war would be taking place no later than the specific year of ‘1940’, with Germany (generally) being presented as a future primary ‘enemy’.

    Indeed. That’s what many claim; when you read the 14 Point Facade, the Treaty, and then learn the conditions under which it was obtained, it’s clear peace was not the objective.

    The use of the cinema was something I recently learned that occurred prior to WW2 as a primer for war. I used to think western nations were above that nonsense. It’s a shame, as art can be such a powerful source for good in society; I think “The Family Man†was such a powerful film with a thoughtful message and enough silliness to make it rather enjoyable to watch. The CD should be a mandatory wedding gift for new couples.

    It is interesting how science fiction authors seem to predict the future rather accurately; I’m fairly certain Cowboys & Aliens was a documentary.

    > explain the resentment resistance that would generate among the German people against the non-Germans

    As I said already, there is no evidence that working-class Germans ever subscribed to any such resentment. The votes from the German workers continued to go to the Social Democrats and Communists, though split between the 2 parties, right up until the last open election in November 1932. That's not surprising because even though the percentage of Jews (versus the Jewish population) with good-paying middle-to-upper class careers was certainly higher than the corresponding percentage of Germans, the proportions of capital wealth owned by Jewish stockholders was in no way out of line with Jews as a share of the population. From the point of view of German proletarians, the exploiting class of capital-owners was not distinctively Jewish at all. That, again, is the difference between "income" versus "capital."

    Which Pew Survey did you consult for this conclusion?

    Everyone knows the difference between income vs. capital. That’s not exactly the issue. The issue is the official narratives of Jewish oppression, restrictions, exclusions, ad nauseam….yet, spectacular wealth accrual by the Rothschilds, Sassoons, Marks & Spencer, et al, and locally, by their own admission, they describe prosperous live, always kvetching about mistreatment, never a word of appreciation for Gentile nations.

    From the Jewish Virtual Library:

    “In Hungary

    The Hungarian wool trade was conducted almost entirely by Jews, who were thus in a position to establish textile industries. Adolf and Heinrich Kohner, originally Moravian feather merchants, established Hungary’s first modern wool textile factories. Other notable textile manufacturers were Robert Szurday (originally Weiss, ennobled in 1899), Leo Buday (originally Goldberger), and Samuel Goldberger (ennobled in 1867).

    Bohemia and Moravia

    These areas, the most industrialized in the Hapsburg Empire, also produced most of its textiles, and Jews played a prominent role in this industry. From the 17th century Jews had been almost the sole dealers in raw wool, from the peasants together with furs, hides, livestock, and other agricultural produce.â€

    Far be it from me to criticize Jewish industriousness, but it’s the Jewish international capital that enables local Jews to corner markets by importing materials sourced overseas using foreign labor, using Jewish shipping magnates, who achieved prominence by the same methods – this happens in multiple industries, and since they care NOT for the gentile countries they inhabit, they make no attempt to share or include gentiles in this prosperity, And they use their international networks to thwart non-Jewish competition. So, the international tycoons make millions, and the local Jewish merchants draw tremendous income from their international-money bankrolled businesses.

    It’s not just business where the treachery is observed. Jews flew in to South Africa once the Dutch had built a prosperous society, as their international capital was quite useful for gold/diamond mining; they used English battering rams against the Dutch, of course. Eventually, the Jews agitated for Equality! and human rights for Africans, but once Apartheid fell, they flew like bats out of hell (quite literally) so they wouldn’t have to endure the consequences of their meddling; they retain their mineral interests, of course. Anywho…if you’re Jewish in South Africa today, you can fly straight into the arms of Israel. If you’re Afrikaans or English, you’re mostly stuck.

    The first simplest source to use is simply the record of votes in Weimar elections. You can either look them up on Wiki or else go to pages 982-3 of Alan Bullock, Hitler and Stalin: Parallel Lives. The most pertinent parties to consider here are the National Socialists (NSDAP), the Social Democrats (SPD) and the Communists (KPD). Focusing on the election of May 20, 1928; September 14, 1930; July 31, 1932; and November 6, 1932, gives the voting percentages of:

    NSDAP: 2.6, 18.3, 37.4, 33.1.
    SPD: 29.8, 24.5, 21.6, 20.4.
    KPD: 10.6, 13.1, 14.6, 16.9.

    The July 31 election is the only one where the percentage vote for the NSDAP managed to outstrip the combined votes for the SPD and KPD. Even here it should be emphasized that there was no falling off in the votes for the latter two parties. It was just that a sector of middle-class conservatives gave their vote to the NSDAP, allowing the latter to surge to 37.4% (still not a majority vote) before declining again to 33.1. The labor vote continued to go the SPD and KPD right up until the end. But the latter two parties were at each other's throats in bitter rivalry, which played to the advantage of the NSDAP. In that respect, it was sort of similar to the way that Admiral Kolchak's coup d'état against the government of Social Revolutionaries in Siberia in 1918 guaranteed the victory of the Bolsheviks in Siberia.

    You might be interested in this observation by Dr. William Pierce. He made a few claims in his writing that seemed a bit far-fetched when I began reading his work; every time I went to “fact-check†him, he was proved correct. This essay excerpt includes observations on their habits within gentile society:

    Lest I seem like a hypocrite, I should tell you that I am not denigrating the Jews because they value their own lives quite differently from the lives of non-Jews. I am not denigrating the Jews for not being the egalitarians they pretend to be. I am denigrating them for pretending to be what they are not. No one in his right mind is an egalitarian. The members of every tribe that will survive very long on this planet value the lives of their fellow tribesmen above the lives of those who are not members of the tribe. Judaism is a survival-oriented religion. Christianity is not. Perhaps a more meaningful and relevant difference between the two religions is that Judaism is a religion for survival in a multicultural society. It is a religion for governing the behavior of a Jewish minority in the presence of a non-Jewish majority. Christianity, on the other hand, is a religion for governing the behavior of Christians in a homogeneous Christian society. In a multicultural society it becomes suicidal. Judaism makes very clear distinctions between Jews and non-Jews, and the rules are different for the way a Jew should behave toward his fellow Jews and the way he should behave toward non-Jews: quite different. In Christianity the rules are the same for everybody. That’s an important distinction, and it’s important for us to understand it. It’s important for the minority of Christians who aren’t lemmings to understand it too.

    So again, I don’t denigrate Jews because they don’t believe in treating everyone the same. They want to survive, and there’s nothing wrong with wanting to survive. What’s pathological about the Jews is that they are constituted for existing as a predatory minority in a non-Jewish society. Judaism is a religion for predators. Christianity is a religion for pacifists. Judaism encourages deception. Christianity insists on truthfulness. Each is suited to a specific sort of environment. The Jews, through their control of the mass media of news and entertainment, have deliberately changed the environment in America to suit themselves, to enhance their own survivability at the expense of the non-Jewish majority. That’s what they always do everywhere that they are allowed to get away with it. That is their nature. That is why they often are successful, and it also is the reason why they are so hated and always have been. It is for good reason that we have the very well-known and often-used terms “anti-Semite†and “anti-Semitic,†but don’t have equivalent terms for other ethnic groups. “Anti-Semite,†of course, is a bit of a misnomer. It doesn’t mean a person who doesn’t like Arabs or other Semites; it means only a person who doesn’t like Jews. There is no term “anti-Buddhist†or “anti-Hindu,†even though there are far more Buddhists and Hindus in the world than Jews. Believe me, the Jews are special. They are unique.

    We may have conflicts with other groups — we may be threatened by other groups — but no other group has ever threatened our existence in the way we are threatened by the Jews. Being predatory by nature may give the Jews certain survival advantages, just as it tends to get them into trouble a lot more often than is the case for most other groups. It also makes it very difficult for them to have a “normal†mode of existence: that is, to live only among themselves, instead of as a minority among non-Jews.

    Whatever may have occurred in Pakistan, the tensions over Danzig and Poland only began to escalate after Hitler had tossed aside the Munich Agreement (less than 6 months after signing it) and occupied Czechia. Without that, it is far more likely that agreement could have been reached between Germany and Poland as had been done between Germany and Italy.

    -----
    In the spring of 1923 Mussolini had adopted Italianization as the official policy of his government and made its instigator, Tolomei, a senator... The use of the name 'Alto Adige' became obligatory and that of 'south Tyrol' or 'German Tyrol' a penal offence. German towns were given Italian names and German street signs removed, the German press was harassed and the German language progressively suppressed in the law courts, administration and schools. These measures provoked a bitter anti-Italian press campaign in Germany, to which the Italian press replied with equal passion. Early in May 1925 the Italian government made an official protest in Berlin.
    -----
    -- Christopher Seton-Watson, Italy from Liberalism to Fascism, p. 689.

    The reason that these German-Italian tensions were subsequently settled during Hitler's time in office was not that Mussolini was somehow more German-friendly than the Poles were. It was simply that Hitler's ambitions were directed towards expansion into eastern Europe, while he hoped that Mussolini would create a distraction for Britain and France. Hence, he worked diplomatically to assure Mussolini that the South Tyrol question could be settled peacefully. But it was never his intent to settle conflicts with Czechoslovakia and Poland peacefully without a German expansion to the east. That was why war etupted.

    I would speculate Hitler was much more understanding of a nation’s national interests. As as matter of fact, no speculation is necessary, as he hammered, on and on, about a nation keeping their interests and resources within their borders first, and then seeking mutually beneficial relationships with other nations.

    But it was never his intent to settle conflicts with Czechoslovakia and Poland peacefully without a German expansion to the east. That was why war etupted.

    Is that so? Germania had been around, in one form or another, for centuries, therefore there were Germans, with German interests, all over Central and Eastern-ish Europe. Please tell me about those “ancient†Czechoslovakians. What say you about the Poles, sneaking in to Czechoslovakia, on Hitler’s coattails? How is Czechoslovakia today? You’re right, Hitler had no intention of being the whipping-boy for the English, the vulture-capitalists nor the communists.

    Here’s a tid-bit about German character from the Greensboro News & Record in the USA:

    Now picture this, same time, same war, half a world away. A farm truck stops at the stockade area of the Overseas Replacement Depot (ORD) in Greensboro. A dozen German POWs pile into the back. No guards with guns climb aboard. Off go the prisoners for a day of work on a farm.“Only in America,’ as the late journalist and philosopher Harry Golden of Charlotte would say.

    The Germans, it must be said, did good work on Piedmont farms and more than earned the 80 cents a day Uncle Sam paid under the Geneva Convention.

    William Coble’s barn stands as evidence of German craftsmanship. It’s so picturesque that artists have painted it through the years. […] From William Coble’s farm, the POWs crossed West Friendly Avenue and dismantled the top of a barn on the Lindley farm. They brought it across the road and up the hill to the Coble Farm, then called Sunnyhill Dairy, and rebuilt it on terra cotta walls.

    Wasn’t she scared looking out the back door at enemy soldiers 100 yards away? Not a bit, says Ruth Coble, William Coble’s wife.

    “They were as nice of people as you would ever want to see,’ she remembers.

    Every account I read of German POWs in America is the same: they worked hard; they were well-mannered; they caused no trouble; they didn’t seem like enemies nor as they were portrayed by the Media.

    I have compared numerous accounts from citizens within “Nazi†occupied areas and Bolshevik/Soviet occupied areas. My conclusion? Excuse my language, but you’re full of shit, McNally. Their national character is obvious. I’m not saying they were pacifists nor never overly aggressive, but the monsters were/are exactly who Hitler said they were/are.

    > he hammered, on and on, about a nation keeping their interests and resources within their borders first, and then seeking mutually beneficial relationships with other nations.

    No, he did not. Hitler's goes on endlessly about the need for the Aryan race to expand its living space. He maintains that Slavic eastern Europe, especially Russia, is the logical place for the Aryan population to expand. There is nothing which he ever says about a "nation" keeping within some kind of borders. His view is that the construct of a "nation-state" only exists to facilitate racial interests, where the interests of the race require an outlet for steady territorial expansion. The function of the nation is to secure that expansion of the race.

    All of this laid out multiple times in Mein Kampf, the Second Book, and multiple speeches, many of which are cited by Irving in The War Path and Hitler's War. No honest reading of Hitler's own words would support the description which you've given.

    > Germany was damn well entitled to use force to protect the Germans being murdered by Poles on territory that had been German.

    Except that there was no murder of Germans by Poles when Hitler started the war. Pogroms began 2 days later on September 3 at Bromberg and spread around. But if Hitler had not pressed things towards war, this would never have happened.

    From the US Department of State, Office of the Historian:

    Section XI.—Free City of Danzig (Art. 100 to 108)
    Notes to Part III, Section XI, Articles 100 to 108

    Danzig

    The surrender of this “purely German Hanseatic city†and “its equally purely German environs†was declared by the German delegation to be “in the sharpest opposition to all the assurances†given by President Wilson, and would “lead to violent resistance and to an enduring state of war in the Eastâ€. Germany therefore rejected “the proposed rape of Danzig†(Foreign Relations, The Paris Peace Conference, 1919, vi, 836). But it was prepared to make Memel, Königsberg, and Danzig free ports in order to assure Poland “a direct outlet to the great highways of the seaâ€, as promised by President Wilson, and to grant the Poles “far-reaching rightsâ€, subject to an agreement concerning the reciprocal use of German and Polish railways and rivers. […] The Free City of Danzig and its relations to Poland became, with the question of German minorities in Poland (see article 91), the casus belli of Germany in September 1939. The “explosion on the part of the military forces which have taken up their position†was set off because of tension, according to the German message of August 31, 1939 to the British Government, owing to “(1) the impossible delineation of frontiers, as fixed by Versailles dictate; (2) the impossible treatment of the minority in the ceded territories†[…]

    On August 12, 1936 the German Chancellor assured the Polish Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs that “Polish rights in the Free City, which he knew and understood, could not suffer the least detriment†from the National Socialists.

    After 1936 the High Commissioner played a minor and decreasing part with respect to Danzig and in Danzig-Polish relations. There was, on the other hand, an increase of German-Polish relations, in which Germany voiced claims on behalf of the Free City but entirely within the bounds of the established regime.

    On November 5, 1937, when the German-Polish minorities declaration (see art. 91) was announced, the German Chancellor formulated his attitude to the Polish Ambassador in three points: There would be no changes in the legal and political position in Danzig; the rights of the Polish population in Danzig would be respected; the rights of Poland in Danzig would be respected. The Chancellor added, according to the Ambassador’s report, that “a surprise step was out [Page 244] of the questionâ€, but he also remarked that “Poland is bound up with Danzigâ€. He reiterated that declaration to the Polish Minister for Foreign Affairs on January 14, 1938. […]

    The German Minister for Foreign Affairs proposed to the Polish Ambassador on October 24, 1938 a general settlement which included the reunion of Danzig with the Reich, Poland being assured of an extraterritorial road, a railroad and a free port, and economic facilities there. Poland would agree to the building of an extraterritorial motor road and railroad line across Pomorze. In his instructions to the Ambassador the Polish Minister for Foreign Affairs on October 31 stated that he was “ready to have final conversations personally with the governing circles of the Reichâ€. […]

    The German Chancellor made a speech to the Reichstag on April 28, 1939, in which he argued that the Treaty of Versailles intentionally “inflicted a most severe wound on Germany†by establishing the Corridor and Danzig in such a way as to prevent understanding between Poland and Germany. The speech was the public frame for a memorandum handed to the Polish Government in which it was asserted that Poland had rejected the German proposals on Danzig and the Corridor and, by assuming the obligations of April 6 with the United Kingdom, which were incompatible with the German-Polish declaration of January 26, 1934, had “arbitrarily and unilaterally rendered this declaration inoperative†[…]

    As to negotiations, the German Führer, in a letter of August 23 to the British Prime Minister, said “Germany was prepared to settle the problem of Danzig and of the Polish Corridor by a very generous proposal, made once only, and by means of negotiationsâ€. This quotation is from the German-English version of the German Foreign Office (Official Documents, No. 456). The original German reads: “Deutschland war bereit, die Frage Danzig und die des Korridors durch einen wahrhaft einmalig grosszügigen Vorschlag auf dem Wege von Verhandlungen zu lösenâ€. The British translation reads: “negotiation on the basis of a proposal of truly unparalleled magnanimityâ€. Any inclination of Poland to negotiate was “effectually destroyed†by the United Kingdom’s guaranty to Poland. Referring to proposed British military mobilization, the Führer wrote: “I must, therefore, inform Your Excellency that in the event of such military measures being taken, I shall order the immediate mobilization of the German armed forces (Wehrmacht)â€.

    So, let me get this straight: The Poles were behaving splendidly and everything was moving along as NOT intended, which means the Poles and Germans were getting along just fine. Adolf Hitler, whilst taking a break from his planned invasion of the USA via South America, decided, what’s with all this peace in Danzig and the Corridor? Why is it that any attempt at negotiations, to circumvent force, by Hitler is “just a ruse,†yet everyone else in the western world is truthful and inordinately concerned with the freedom of people living in places far removed from their sphere of influence? Who is it that considers the Whole World their sphere of influence?

    Geez, it's almost as if early on there were people who (just in case) were deliberately attempting to create political conditions which would ensure the outbreak of a devastating new world war.

    H G Wells, the British establishment author of The Open Conspiracy (1928) and The New World Order (1940) amongst other notable works, apparently readily (and easily) saw this as well.

    In his 'prophetic' 1933 novel, The Shape of Things to Come, it is no less than the city of Danzig which kicks WWII off.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Shape_of_Things_to_Come

    Wells' Second World War breaks out in January 1940 with a European conflagration from the flashpoint of a violent clash between Germans and Poles at Danzig - closely matching the actual outbreak of WWII.
    �


    Probably related, I've posted before about how there were at least three major Anglosphere produced movies ie High Treason (1929), Men Must Fight (1933), and Things to Come (1936), which told there audiences that a future world war would be taking place no later than the specific year of '1940', with Germany (generally) being presented as a future primary 'enemy'.

    A fascinating article on the 1929 film High Treason. YouTube has a copy and it's worth a look see.

    That is exactly how things could have ended, if Hitler had not occupied Czechia. You don't seem to grasp the implications of the bits and pieces which you've randomly selected here. If Hitler had never carried out his push on Czechoslovakia in March 14-16, 1939, then there probably would have been a resolution achieved over Danzig between Germany and Poland. Once Hitler had violated the Munich Agreement, then it became obvious that no Polish government could ever trust a deal which Hitler pretended to sign over Danzig.

    From what I read, German expatriates were harassed and murdered by Poles as far back as 1920.

    > You suggested Hacha agreed under duress, did you not? The implication clearly was that Hitler’s actions were unethical or criminal.

    More than that, Hitler's actions showed that he could never be trusted to adhere to any treaty that might be signed over Danzig. After March 15, 1939, the Polish government knew very well that if they signed any agreement over Danzig that was similar to Munich, then Hitler would likely just wait 5 months before imposing new demands on Poland. The occupation of Czechia made an agreement over Danzig impossible.

    > Therefore, as the Versailles Treaty was agreed to upon threat of invasion and continuing economic sanctions, please explain to me the difference.

    Well, one obvious difference is that the Versailles Treaty came after Germany had fought a war for 4 years on French territory in which its early declared aims included much harsher terms than the Versailles Treaty.

    https://thehistoryfiles.com/september-programme/

    But this is just a diversion. All of the Weimar politicians sought to evade the conditions of the Versailles Treaty. The Rapallo Treaty was intended to provide a route around Versailles, so that the German military could continue preparing even with the Versailles Treaty nominally in force. But Hitler's ambitions for a drive to the east, to acquire living space for the Aryan Herrenvolk at the expense of the Slavic subhuman, were a different matter altogether.

    A statement can be simultaneously true and false. I submit Jews are quite capable of this maneuver:

    The Liar Paradox is an argument that arrives at a contradiction by reasoning about a Liar Sentence. The Classical Liar Sentence is the self-referential sentence:

    This sentence is false.

    It leads to the same difficulties as the sentence, I am lying. Experts in the field of philosophical logic have never agreed on the way out of the trouble despite 2,300 years of attention. Here is the trouble. It is a sketch of the Paradox, the argument that reveals the contradiction:

    Let L be the Classical Liar Sentence. If L is true, then L is false. But the converse also can be established, as follows. Assume L is false. Because the Liar Sentence is just the sentence L is false, the Liar Sentence is therefore true, so L is true. What has now been shown is that L is true if, and only if, it is false. Since L must be one or the other, it is both……Now, I’m not suggesting my arguments below fit this dilemma, but I am suggesting that the frequency of weaving falsehoods into truths is apparent if you pay attention, and if you do a little research. Ergo, Jewish censorship is rampant and legislation is needed to protect their pogrom fairy tales.

    Wilson’s 14 points BS:

    “We entered this war because violations of right had occurred which touched us to the quick and made the life of our own people impossible unless they were corrected and the world secure once for all against their recurrence.â€

    Was this true? Was America really suffering and in peril?

    “VIII. All French territory should be freed and the invaded portions restored, and the wrong done to France by Prussia in 1871 in the matter of Alsace-Lorraine, which has unsettled the peace of the world for nearly fifty years, should be righted, in order that peace may once more be made secure in the interest of all.â€

    Was this true? Was the World really suffering over Alsace-Lorraine?

    “XII. The Turkish portion of the present Ottoman Empire should be assured a secure sovereignty, but the other nationalities which are now under Turkish rule should be assured an undoubted security of life and an absolutely unmolested opportunity of autonomous development, and the Dardanelles should be permanently opened as a free passage to the ships and commerce of all nations under international guarantees.â€

    How did this work out for the Arabs therein? Of course, I’m referring to those citizens in Palestine who were to remain unmolested and secure.

    “XIII. An independent Polish state should be erected which should include the territories inhabited by indisputably Polish populations, which should be assured a free and secure access to the sea, and whose political and economic independence and territorial integrity should be guaranteed by international covenant.â€

    Was Danzig “indisputably inhabited by Polish populations?â€

    “XIV. A general association of nations must be formed under specific covenants for the purpose of affording mutual guarantees of political independence and territorial integrity to great and small states alike.
    In regard to these essential rectifications of wrong and assertions of right we feel ourselves to be intimate partners of all the governments and peoples associated together against the Imperialists. We cannot be separated in interest or divided in purpose. We stand together until the end.
    For such arrangements and covenants we are willing to fight and to continue to fight until they are achieved; but only because we wish the right to prevail and desire a just and stable peace such as can be secured only by removing the chief provocations to war, which this programme does remove. We have no jealousy of German greatness, and there is nothing in this programme that impairs it. We grudge her no achievement or distinction of learning or of pacific enterprise such as have made her record very bright and very enviable. We do not wish to injure her or to block in any way her legitimate influence or power. We do not wish to fight her either with arms or with hostile arrangements of trade if she is willing to associate herself with us and the other peace- loving nations of the world in covenants of justice and law and fair dealing. We wish her only to accept a place of equality among the peoples of the world, — the new world in which we now live, — instead of a place of mastery.â€

    So, that explains the economic boycotts and threats of military invasions prior to the signing of the Versailles Treaty. And, to which Imperialists was he referring? Surely not England? Did the Treaty of Versailles injure Germany? Did he mention the war guilt mumbo-jumbo in this rather conciliatory speech?

    How about a little Hollywood drama?

    Princess Isabelle:
The king desires peace.

    William Wallace:
Longshanks desires peace?

    Princess Isabelle:
He declares it to me, I swear it. He proposes that you withdraw your attack. In return he grants you title, estates, and this chest of gold which I am to pay to you personally.

    William Wallace:
A lordship and titles. Gold. That I should become Judas?

    Princess Isabelle:
Peace is made in such ways.

    William Wallace:
Slaves are made in such ways. The last time Longshanks spoke of peace I was a boy. And many Scottish nobles, who would not be slaves, were lured by him under a flag of truce to a barn, where he had them hanged. I was very young, but I remember Longshank’s notion of peace.

    Also from Braveheart:

    Narrator : I shall tell you of William Wallace. Historians from England will say I am a liar, but history is written by those who have hanged heroes.

    And, “An oath to a liar is no oath at all.â€

    Of course, I make no claims about the veracity of this dialogue as it pertains to William Wallace, but the principles are true. I also chose it because Mel Gibson’s father never told him a lie. Do you ever wonder why Judas or Judea is always associated with treachery and betrayals? This frequent “association†proves nothing, but fire is hot, water is wet, if it walks like a duck…..
