Hitler and the Chinese Internet Generation and Hitler Approved Hess Peace Flight To Britain, Document Suggests

 

Hitler and the Chinese Internet Generation
Richard Komaiko - Asia Times
http://www.atimes.com/atimes/China/ME25Ad01.html

.. .. There is a growing trend in the Chinese blogosphere to vocalize praises and expressions of support for Hitler .. .. As the rumor spreads throughout the Chinese social web, admiration for Hitler is growing stronger and stronger. Blog posts with titles like "Why I like Hitler" are popping up every day, and an increasingly greater share of young Chinese are choosing to express their nationalism by voicing support for Hitler .. .. According to several Beijing college students interviewed for this article, the word "Hitler" does not evoke images of anti-Semitism or genocide, but rather, strong leadership and nationalism. They say that they admire Hitler for his ability to unify his country and restore it to a position of respect in the international arena.


Under Pressure, Irving Lecture in Amsterdam Is Canceled

An invitation from a Dutch social-democratic student to the British Holocaust denier David Irving to address students in Amsterdam on 26 May was cancelled after united protests from anti-fascists and the Jewish community in the city. Irving had intended to speak on "Hitler, Himmler and the Final Solution", a subject that guaranteed controversy. The University of Amsterdam had apparently been unaware of the planned meeting but was forced by the protests to deny Irving access to university buildings.


Hitler Approved Hess Peace Flight To Britain, Document Suggests
The Telegraph (Britain)
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/world-war-2/8547899/Rudolf-Hess-flight-to-Britain-approved-by-Hitler.html

Rudolf Hess's doomed flight to Britain in 1941 was approved by Adolf Hitler and was an attempt to bring the British into the war against the Soviet Union, according to a recently discovered document. A historian studying the Russian archives in Moscow found a letter written by Karlheinz Pintsch, Hess's adjutant, that claims Hitler knew of the leading Nazi's plans to make the dangerous, solo night flight from Germany to Britain. In the 28-page statement discovered by Matthias Uhl, Pintsch writes that Hess's mission was to "use all means at his disposal to achieve, if not a German military alliance with England against Russia, at least the neutralisation of England". It also states Hitler was fully aware of the mission.


Rudolf Hess' 1941 Peace Mission: Hitler's `Unspoken Wish'
The Guardian (Britain) - 1955
http://www.fpp.co.uk/History/Hess/Hess_Pintsch_1955.gif

The story of the flight to Britain in 1941 of Rudolf Hess, Hitler's deputy, was told by his former adjutant, Karl Heinz Pintsch, on his arrival here today from captivity in the Soviet Union .. .. Though Hitler was not informed of Hess's plan, Pitsch said, his "unspoken wish" was to achieve "reconciliation and peace with Britain," and this was Hess's object .. .. Pintsch said that as far as he was concerned, Hess was "the sincerest and most upright man I met during the Third Reich."


Inside Story of the Hess Flight: Hitler's Peace Offer to Britain
The American Mercury (1943)
http://www.ihr.org/jhr/v03/v03p291_Anon.html

.. .. Hitler offered total cessation of the war in the West. Germany would evacuate all of France except Alsace and Lorraine, which would remain German. It would evacuate Holland and Belgium, retaining Luxembourg. It would evacuate Norway and Denmark. In short, Hitler offered to withdraw from Western Europe, except for the two French provinces and Luxembourg, in return for which Great Britain would agree to assume an attitude of benevolent neutrality towards Germany as it unfolded its plans in Eastern Europe. In addition, the Führer was ready to withdraw from Yugoslavia and Greece.


The Legacy of Rudolf Hess
Mark Weber
http://www.ihr.org/jhr/v13/v13n1p20_Weber.html

.. .. He spent 46 years -- half his life -- behind bars, a victim of a cruel victor's justice. More than any other man, Rudolf Hess symbolizes the vindictiveness and hypocrisy of the Nuremberg Tribunal .. .. Known as the "conscience of the party," he often used what power and influence he had to intervene on behalf of victims of persecution by extremists in the National Socialist party. In his detailed study, Justice at Nuremberg, which is generally very critical of the German defendants, historian Robert E. Conot called Hess a "decent and honest" man and "a pacifist at heart." .. .. Rudolf Hess was a prisoner of peace and a victim of a vindictive age.


AIPAC Congress Delegates: Denial and Ignorance
Max Blumenthal -- Video
http://www.moveoveraipac.org/2011/05/witness-the-shocking-denial-and-ignorance-by-aipac-delegates/

On May 22, thousands of supporters of America's most powerful pro-Israel lobbying group, the America-Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC, converged on Washington for the group's annual conference. .. .. I interviewed several AIPAC delegates in the streets outside the conference. While few, if any, were able to demonstrate any degree of sophistication in the understanding of the Israel-Palestine crisis, they had been briefed inside on how to respond to critics. No one I spoke to would concede that Israel occupied any part of Palestinian territory; none would concede that Israel had committed acts of indiscriminate violence or that it had transferred Palestinians by force; one interviewee could not distinguish Palestine from Pakistan.


Imperial Secrecy
Stephen M. Walt
http://walt.foreignpolicy.com/posts/2011/05/18/imperial_secrecy

.. .. Foreign animosity to the United States is largely a reaction to things that the United States does. In other words, they don't hate us for our freedoms, or for our values, or even our supposedly decadent TV shows. Rather, people who are angry at the United States -- and this includes most anti-American terrorists -- are opposed to different aspects of U.S. policy. Whether those U.S. policies are the right ones can be debated, of course, but the key point is that anti-Americanism doesn't come out of nowhere.


Should Lord Haw-Haw Really Have Been Hanged?
Daily Express (Britain)
http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/248115/Should-Lord-Haw-Haw-really-have-been-hanged-

.. .. An 82-year-old widow, Heather Iandolo, the daughter of William Joyce, the man nicknamed Lord Haw-Haw by the Daily Express, is making an appeal to the British authorities to have her father's guilty verdict for high treason, for which he was executed in 1946, overturned. Aged just 17 at his death, she has just put her name to an application to the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) which asserts that not only was her father not technically British, and therefore unable to be a traitor, but he was also a double agent for MI5 throughout the war .. .. Even at the time of his hanging at Wandsworth Prison on January 3, 1946, Joyce's conviction was controversial, owing to the serious doubts about his nationality.


Hitler 'Honorary Citizen' Row Grips Austria
BBC News
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-13582533

Several towns in Austria have been checking their archives this week to see if Adolf Hitler is still an honorary citizen of their communities. It follows an announcement by the town of Amstetten that - after more than 60 years - it was finally revoking Hitler's honorary title. Hitler visited Amstetten -- west of Vienna -- in 1938, and was made an honorary citizen the following year. The Green Party sponsored the move to strike his name from the honours list. The decision was passed by a large majority in the town council .. .. The debate has unsettled Austria, which is still grappling with the legacy of its Nazi past, and has sent historians and politicians rushing to check their archives.

Senate Intelligence Committee members condemn Patriot Act

 


TUE MAY 31, 2011 AT 07:30 PM PDT

Udall, Wyden warn of government overreach in PATRIOT Act, administration's 'secret law'

Senators Wyden, Feinstein, and Roberts in Intelligence meeting (Kevin Lamarque/Reuters)

The White House has developed a "secret law," an interpretation of the PATRIOT Act, that has several Democratic Senators up in arms. Senators Mark Udall (D-CO) and Ron Wyden (D-OR) were as explicit as they could be, given that their knowledge of the program came from their classified work in the Intelligence Committee, in the debate over the PATRIOT Act extension last week.
Udall, who supports the act generally and has voted for previous short-term extensions, said he could not vote to extend the act again as it stands. He told reporters that leadership has time and again put off calls for reform by suggesting that concerns would be addressed later, when the bill came up for longer-term extension
Udall said that given the act passed a decade ago and in light of the fact that this week's vote would extend the most controversial provisions for years, now was the time for real debate and reform. The three provisions targeted for reform by Udall and others were set to expire Friday.
Udall was joined in his arguments by Ron Wyden from Oregon, also a member of the Intelligence Committee. In making his point, Wyden threw more light on why he and Udall and others were mounting such a strong case for reform now.
Wyden said that the executive branch had developed a legal theory unknown to the public that outlined what kind of information it could collect under at least one of the provisions the lawmakers were opposing. He said that the executive branch reading amounted to "secret law" that didn't jibe with a straightforward reading of the text of the legislation.
"I want to deliver a warning this afternoon," Wyden said. "When the American people find out how their government has secretly interpreted the Patriot Act, they will be stunned and they will be angry."

Udall had three amendments which were not considered, as Reid pushed the extension through without allowing amendments. They would have required the FBI show a terrorism link when getting court permission to access credit card, phone, or other records about individuals from businesses; eliminated "roving" wiretaps that don't identify the person or phone targeted; and required law enforcement to notify Congress before beginning surveillance on individuals who are not connected with terrorist organizations or a foreign government, the so-called "lone wolf" domestic suspects.

The extension of the PATRIOT Act won't be the end, apparently, of Senate action on the "secret law" the administration is using to conduct surveillance that Wyden and Udall warn is not supported by the PATRIOT Act. That's demonstrated by a colloquy on the Senate floor engaged by Wyden, Udall and Diane Feinsten detailed here by Marcy Wheeler. The colloquy followed a meeting the night before which also included Senators Jeff Merkley (D-OR) and Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI). Underneath all the Senate "blather," there are strong indications that Wyden and Udall will force the government to admit how it's suveilling Americans, or comply with existing law.

Make no mistake, not only did Wyden get this colloquy in the Senate record, but there appear to have been several threats hiding behind the Senate blather. DiFi has said she thinks the way to fix a secret law is to change it in a secret committee meeting. But Wyden et al have made it clear that if she doesn't agree to fix it in her secret committee meeting, he will try to do so on the Senate floor.
And consider the role of Merkley here. He was at the meeting on Wednesday night, the only person present who is not a member of the Intelligence Committee (and who therefore did not attend the February 2 briefing that got Wyden all fired up about this). In his presence, the concerns about the program were discussed with some "specificity" (per DiFi's description). As Wyden describes, Merkley was not only present at the meeting, but proved "he knows an incredible amount about" the problem. As part of the whole colloquy, Merkley suggests this problem is akin to letting the King enter your house, precisely what the Fourth Amendment was written to prevent.
This is a key part of the threat, I suspect. Unlike Wyden and Udall, who learned of this problem via classified briefings, Merkley appears to have figured it out on his own. Which means he can speak openly about it if there is a full Senate debate about it.
Now that implicit threat may all get buried under Senate blather. But it appears the message to DiFi is that if she doesn't fix this secret law in her secret committee, then there will be a public discussion about whatever crazy interpretation she is helping the Administration hide.

Merkely could make that discussion public, which is why his presence in these meetings and in the colloquy is important. We're not likely to see any investigative journalists hopping on to this story, not after the way in which the administration has gone after the New York Times Jame Risen, one of the reporters to break the initial warrantless wiretapping story during the Bush administration.

These Democratic Senators are serious and cautious lawmakers. They aren't cranks and they aren't paranoid—as members of the Intelligence Committee, they've been briefed on the program that they say is not supported by the law, so they aren't making this up of whole cloth. Hopefully their efforts will either shed light on the program or by threatening to, force the administration to follow the law. A law, by the way, which is already heavily weighted on the side of government intrusion.

Anti-Judaism and the Origins of Christianity, The Draft Book, Part 3

 

I am grateful to Jerusalem Post for providing me a forum to present these materials as it gives me the opportunity to re-read and revise for publication. Even so this still represents but a draft of an early chapter in my book. And as I revise this I am actively researching and writing about the Rosenburgs and the Pollards, which means I am well past the half-way point in my "outline." But since I am still writing in "draft" there is still much opportunity for input from you. Whether factual or philosophical disagreement, I welcome your input.

Text Box:

Antisemitism and Jewish Survival

 

 


By David Turner on 01 June, 2011

Anti-Judaism and the Origins of Christianity,

The Draft Book, Part 3

 

 

From, Antisemitism and Jewish Survival: Zionism and the 21st Century. What is the "Jewish Problem," how would Hitler have come by the idea that the Jews were a threat so extreme as to demand their full and final eradication? The "problem" was born with Christianity, came into existence in the first century, in the earliest texts collected into what Christianity refers to as the "New Testament." It was developed over the centuries by Christian theologians and carried over into Western secular society, inheritor of Christian history.

 

Anti-Judaism in the Gospels

 

According to Paula Fredriksen, a Catholic theologian whose writings are said to have inspired the Vatican's Nostre Aetate, the gospels "function as community-building documents. They offer religious proclamation, not simple history." Three of the four gospels included in Christian cannon, those attributed to Mark, Luke and Matthew, are dated between 70 and 100 C.E., immediately following the fall of Jerusalem. The fourth gospel, John, was later, written or compiled in the early second century. While there is disagreement among scholars today regarding how the gospels are to be understood, for most people no guidance is needed. The gospels are as they appear: they are "gospel truth."

 

All four gospels refer to "the Jews" disparagingly; agree that "the Jews" are responsible for the death of Jesus. But two gospels, those attributed to Matthew and John, go much farther in their dramatic and graphic description of Jesus trial and death. Their style is polemical in style and clearly intended to incite.

 

The Matthew GospelMatthew represents the Pilate as gentle and compassionate, the Jews as an angry lynch mob not onlydemanding Jesus death, but demanding also responsibility and blame for all future Jewish generations. "Which of the two will ye that I release unto you? And they said, Barabbas. Pilate saith unto them, What then shall I do unto Jesus who is called Christ? They all say, Let him be crucified. And he said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out exceedingly, saying, Let him be crucified. So when Pilate saw that he prevailed nothing, but rather that a tumult was arising, he took water, and washed his hands [a Jewish, not Roman tradition] before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man; see ye to it. And all the people answered and said, His blood be on us, and on our children."

 

Records dating from Pilate's governorship actually paint a very different picture of the governor as not only contemptuous of Jews, but going out of his way to provoke confrontations and riots. In fact the emperor relieved him of his position out of concern that his actions were fanning the fires of rebellion.

 

According to the John Gospel "the Jews" are represented as demonic antichrists. "I know," John has Jesus say, "that ye are Abraham's seed: yet ye seek to kill me... I speak the things which I have seen with my Father: and ye also do the things which ye heard from your father... Ye are of your father the devil…" (John 8: 37-47)

 

This association of the Jews with Satan is repeated throughout the gospel, and the John gospel has far more accusatory references to "the Jews" than all three earlier gospels combined.

 

 

St. John Chrysostom

 

Judaism remained a continuing problem for the early church. During the first centuries Christians, as did Pagans, continued to hold Judaism in respect due its ancient history and attractiveness of its holidays. Many apparently observed Jewish holidays, and Christian farmers sought the blessing of rabbis for a rich harvest. Such Christians were referred to as "Judaizers" and were seen as a threat to the new religion. John Chrysostom, (c. 344-407) wrote a series of homilies, the Adversus Judeaeos, described by Catholic theologian James Parkes as, "the most horrible and violent denunciations of Judaism to be found in the writings of a Christian theologian". In Homily I, VII, 1 Chrysostom wrote,  "Shall I tell you of their plundering, their covetousness, their abandonment of the poor, their thefts, their cheating in trade? The whole day long will not be enough to give you an account of these things." In his Orations Against The Jews Chrysostom wrote, "The Jews are the odious assassins of Christ and for killing God there is no expiation possible, no indulgence or pardon. Christians may never cease vengeance..." And later, "the Synagogue is a brothel, a den of scoundrels." 1500 years later Nazi propagandists and sympathizers would quote and apply Chrysostom both as justification and model for the Holocaust.
