….Spiritual reading for October 1

Stillness is going to be your greatest ally today. There may be many calls to go forth and do, to impose your presence, your power, your influence, your will, your desire on those in the world around you.

Resist if you can. This is not a time for moving or shaking or pushing or pulling or maneuvering of any sort. This is a time when you will benefit most from silence and stillness, from allowing yourself to drop into the quietest place within and remain there for as much of the time as you are able.

Try not to ask for directions or instructions. Try not to accomplish, even on a spiritual level. Allow yourself to simply become one with the stillness that never leaves you, never wavers. Allow yourself to grow large in that quiet place, or small. Simply go there and watch what happens without trying to direct it.

This can be done in meditation or contemplation of course, but it can also be done in milliseconds, while brushing your teeth or tying your shoes or dialing a phone number. If you do anything today, work toward becoming an adept at dropping into stillness on a dime, in the midst of ordinary worldly activity.

See how often and how easily you can get there and for how long you can remain. There is far too much commotion for anyone in its midst to be able to clearly discern the right direction for their soul to take in a given moment. Cultivate quiet, and when the storm lifts a little, you will be able to go out again.

Then you will be able to find the balance you need to know your way, with others, with self. But there are times when the wise one stays within and waits, dipping into the wealth that abides there. This is such a day.

We send you great love and many blessings. Be gentle and good to yourself.

…..Himmler has two Waffen-SS soldiers SHOT for  bothering Finnish girls

A Finnish NS comrade told me that Heinrich Himmler, the creator and head of the Waffen-SS, had two of his soldiers in Finland shot for harassing two Finnish girls, which violated the code he had established to do nothing to bother or dishonor local women (and especially not in a nordic and allied country that also was of vital importance).

***

A German comrade wrote:

Did Himmler really let two of his men being executed because of mere accusations? Even if the girl did not complain? If he really did that, he was a bigger idiot than I already presumed.

He was thrown out of the NSDAP for a reason at the end of the Reich.

Sorry, but this sounds almost like all these baseless accusations from today, when some women come out years after accusing someone of having them raped, molested or whatsoever to destroy his career. You just don´t kill your own men because of that.

*** I replied:

Himmler was a nerd in a way, but also a fine NS comrade.

In 1923, during the so-called Beerhall Putsch, Himmler marched in the second row (and is seen on the far right, wearing a fedora hat, with Hess in front of him). Seconds later, sixteen of us were dead, shot by the Bavarian state police! Goering was shot in the groin, and my shoulder was dislocated when the man next to me was  shot right in the heart and went down like a sack of potatoes. Since my arms were interlocked with his, his fall wrenched me instantly to the pavement, yanking my shoulder painfully right out of its ball joint.

And there is Heinrich Himmler, who, whether likable or not, had guts!

 

Well, as to how badly the Waffen-SS men misbehaved toward those girls, we just need to get in the time machine and go back to that town and overhear that conversation. 😉

It was a fellow Waffen-SS soldier who reported them, btw.

I can say from personal experience that the Finns can be prickly and combative. (Their descendants are also the biggest ethnic group here in Ontonagon.) They were excellent soldiers, they hated the bolsheviks, and they were extremely important to the German war effort, and they were attacking the Soviets near Leningrad (St. Petersburg), the former capital of Russia and a huge industrial center.

If a girl says no, and she really means it, a soldier must respect it, and especially so if he is a guest in her country, and that country is a vital ally!

Every girl, you know, has a father, a brother and an uncle. 😉 People talk….

We just do not know the whole story, comrade…..

But the Waffen-SS, which was Heinrich Himmler’s co-creation, was of legendary quality. As Léon Degrelle, himself a Waffen-SS officer, said after the catastrophe of Stalingrad, the whole eastern front could have collapsed, but the Waffen-SS was “ein Fels in der Brandung” — a boulder standing tall in the surf.

And we can thank Heinrich Himmler for that.

***

He replied:

True that, but if this really happened, it´s just excessive. Even if they did bother the girl, there were other methods than draconian penalties.

I don´t doubt the quality of the Waffen-SS, and Himmler did well in the first years, but later it seems his ego took over.

So, to be honest, he is one of the important figures of the Reich I don´t like.

Ugly men tend to be of questionable character, especially under pressure.

There are certain aspects and persons of the Reich I strongly dislike. Often penalties – be it in the troops or in the regular justice system – seemed too harsh.

Like the execution of the [anti-Hitler, anti-war] members [in Munich] of the White Rose group (“die Weiße Rose”). It was ordered by the disgusting judge Roland Freisler. He was one of the worst examples of a carreerist in this otherwise good system.

Why the death penalty for these confused young chumps? Prison would have been enough, and trying to re-educate them. This is one thing that really goes against my moral compass. Too many death penalties in the Reich, for mere words and opinions.

I’m of course aware that there are many distortions in the official history, and a lot of lies, but that doesn´t mean that there weren´t some unjust verdicts.

I´m also sure Hitler wasn’t in favor of these draconian verdicts. He said he would have let Ernst Thälmann (communist leader) go free when the war was over, as he was just a simple-minded but idealistic guy. Since he was killed by an air raid, the GDR could make a martyr out of him, saying he was killed by NS henchmen. (In truth they didn´t like him, as he was a patriot despite being a communist, and he didn´t like the leadership in Moscow – maybe what today can be called „Nazbol“).

***

I answered:

I understand and honor your feelings. Harsh and brutal treatment is disturbing.

The Allies loved harshness and brutality. They carpet-bombed key cities along the Normandy coast in preparation for D-Day, and why? Eisenhower correctly surmised that rubble from destroyed buildings would slow down the tanks of the Wehrmacht from rushing successfully to the beaches to stop the disembarking Anglo-American troops.

Caen, Normandy once was a beautiful city, built up by William the Conqueror (of England in AD 1066), who was the Duke of Normandy. It has been rebuilt in the ugliest style possible by socialist mayors after WWII….

 

Ike: “Wow, look at that great rubble!”

Guess what, Ike, in whatever hell you are now located — under that RUBBLE are dead and dying white French people, and in the month of JUNE their corpses will start to rot and smell!

A young former naval combat officer, John Kennedy toured postwar Germany with Admiral Forrestal, noting with horror in his European diary in June 1945 that Berlin reeked of putrefying bodies.

 

Le Havre (“the haven or harbor”) was a gorgeous old medieval port city in Normandy built by the great French king Francis I in 1517. 

Wiki: “The city was devastated during the Battle of Normandy when 5,000 people were killed [I love this use of the passive voice; “they were killed”…gee, but by WHOM????? BY THE ALLIES!!!] and 12,000 homes were totally destroyed before its capture in Operation Astonia.” 

Wiki:”The center was rebuilt in a modernist style by Auguste Perret.” 

 

The „collateral damage“ was that as many as 50,000 French civilians perished (and the French Normans are among the racially most germanic, most Viking, and most keltic-Aryan people in  France, with many blue-eyed white people.)

 

I have been to Normandy (in 2004), to Omaha Beach, and have also seen the actually beautiful and dignified US military cemetery there.

And let me tell you, coastal Normandy is really like England, Holland, or Northwestern Germany — overcast skies, lots of rain, soggy soil, and you can count on MUD, deep ruts and SLOW GOING if you try to drive any heavy vehicle off-road, that is, onto a farmer’s field, such as a tank (or a truck full of soldiers)…..

Except, of course, a tractor will do okay, the giant wheels of which are designed for mud……

So guess what, comrade?

Eisenhower’s brutal decision to bomb French coastal cities to create rubble worked very well. It really did slow the panzers down.

They had been held back in reserve because I suspected that the real D-Day invasion would come at Calais, a city which was just across the English Channel from Dover, and much closer to Germany than the Normandy beaches. (See map below.)  Calais also was hundreds of miles nearer to the vital Ruhr industrial region with its massive war production.

Also, if the Allies has invaded at Calais and marched due south toward Paris, that would have cut off all German troops west of the Calais-Paris line.

So I kept the tanks well back in order to see first which „invasion“ would be fake, and which would be the real landing, and then send the tanks in.

Was Eisenhower’s bombing of Norman coastal cities brutal? Yes indeed. A war crimes, actually, under the Hague Rules of Warfare, to wantonly kill civilians.

But from Eisenhower’s point of view, it worked.

.

Sometimes we forget 1) how ruthless our enemy is, and 2) how bad it will be, how much we will SUFFER, if the Big Jews do implement their full, nightmarish Jew World Order.

The great Norwegian novelist and Nobel Prize winner Knut Hamsun said it best: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knut_Hamsun%27s_obituary_of_Adolf_Hitler)

 

My late wife Margaret translated a major study by the great French revisionist Vincent Reynouard (who has been in a Scottish jail now since November 2022) entitled „The Truth About the Gestapo,“ which, of course, also came under Himmler. (See below.)

Reynouard, who is a gentle soul (Margi and I both knew him and stayed for three days at his invitation at his apartment in Brussels, Belgium) agreed that the Gestapo did use torture during the war, but it was

1) non-mutilating, just temporarily painful: — spankings with a paddle; — waterboarding; and —  stress positions to make your leg muscles ache, and

2) as said above, when your enemy openly plans to genocide your whole race (Kaufman and Morgenthau Plans), and does „Dresdens“ on civilians all over Germany,

and Eisenhower prevents American general George Patton from conquering Berlin so the Soviets can take it, and then they go and rape two million German women, and kill five million eastern German civilians,….. and then Ike himself starves one million German POWs to death along the Rhine Meadows, then one can understand those NS officials who felt justified in „taking the gloves off.“

And  they had no patience with the White Rose kids or the July 20, 1944 plotters. They were dangerously delusional. Von Stauffenberg KNEW that Churchill’s emissary had said in Stockholm to the plotters that there would be NO DEAL with ANY Germans, even if they assassinated me a hundred times over!

AND “unconditional capitulation” meant surrendering also to Joseph Stalin and the Red Army!

Wishful thinking in time of war is disastrous!

As for Ernst Thälmann, that KPD (communist party) boss was responsible for the deaths of over one thousand of our stormtroopers: beaten and kicked to death; having fatal „accidents“ on the job in a factory or steel mill (being crushed or electrocuted); being stabbed; or being ambushed on the way home from work, unarmed, and being shot to death.

And the whole purpose of the Red Front (and its offshoot, Antifa, still existing and satanic today) was to trample on the right of other Germans to hold a peaceful meeting! And their goal was what? To impose a communism which, right next door in the USSR, had tortured, worked to death or otherwise killed 20 million innocent Russians!

Thälmann had killed a thousand Germans!

Among them, the great Horst Wessel….who had found out, btw, that the KPD was holding meetings with organized crime figures to stop their common enemy, Hitler.

From Wikipedia:

Wessel became well-known among the Communists when – on orders from Goebbels^[39] – he led a number of SA incursions into the Fischerkiez, an extremely poor Berlin district where Communists mingled with underworld figures. ….

Wessel was marked for death by the KPD, with his face and address featured on street posters.^[31]

Mug shots of Thälmann’s follower, communist Albrecht Höhler, the man arrested and later executed for Wessel’s murder, wearing the new suit given to him by the Communist Party^[48]

At around 10 p.m. on 14 January 1930, Höhler and Erwin Rückert, another member of the KPD [Communist Party of Germany], knocked at the door of the room where Wessel and his girlfriend Erna Jänicke lived, while the remainder of the gang of at least a dozen men waited on the street outside.

When Wessel, who was expecting a visit from the leader of another SA Sturm group, opened the door, he was almost immediately shot at point-blank range.

On 10 April 1935, five years after Wessel’s assassination, and two years after the SA murder of Höhler, two people accused of also being involved in Wessel’s assassination were put on trial, found guilty of premeditated murder, and subsequently beheaded in Berlin’s Plötzensee Prison: Sally Epstein, a Jewish painter, and Hans Ziegler, a barber.

…..the truth about the Gestapo

.

Chivalrous Germans (colorized photo) give full military honors at the 1943 funerals of Royal Air Force sergeants Butlin and Holden, whom the Luftwaffe had shot down near Jersey in the British Channel Islands. These are British islands located right off the French coast in the English Channel; Germany had occupied them when it defeated France in 1940 (whereupon the British Expeditionary Force fled, abandoning all its arms and equipment, back to England from Dunkirk).

The Channel Islands were occupied by NS German forces for most of the Second World War, from 30 June 1940 until the Allies retook them on 9 May 1945. The Bailiwick of Jersey and Bailiwick of Guernsey are two British Crown dependencies in the English Channel, near the coast of Normandy. The Channel Islands were the only part of Britain to be occupied by the German Army during the war.

This chivalry toward Britons reflected both Adolf Hitler’s profoundly pro-British leanings and the belief that — some day — both Britain and America would wake up to the dreadful communist menace, and seek German military help against the USSR, which did happen by the 1950s.

 

The nauseating war criminal and rank hypocrite Dwight Eisenhower (whose orders caused a million German POWs to starve to death while this photo was being taken) acts all grim and horrified that the German Gestapo would use a table during interrogations to spank enemy prisoners  who possessed dangerous military secrets. The gluteus maximus is the largest muscle in the human body and thus a perfect place to inflict moderate pain that poses no lasting physical scars or damage. The Allies did 100 times worse things to enemy prisoners, especially after the Germans (in Europe) had surrendered in May 1945! Btw, the camp inmate looks pretty chubby, not starved at all….

 

I wish to salute our (my and my late wife Margi’s) friend Vincent Reynouard, who was arrested in the Jewnited Kingdom in November 2022 and faces possible extradition back to the Judeomasonic France of the demonic Macron to spend years in a French prison with white, Arab and negro rapists and drug dealers, the dregs of society.

Revisionist writer Vincent Reynouard is a genuine saint of a man.

While others engage in infighting, in slandering, in sanctimonious criticizing, and never once in donating a single dime to any WN activist,  Vincent has braved prison and the REPEATED loss of everything he had (same as me), including two marriages, two families, and nine children.

Recently, he even broke with the Roman Catholic Church, this after many years of his devout and sincere Catholic piety. And his Catholicism had proved an advantage to him in terms of donations and supporters in a country that for centuries had been was 90% Catholic. Many very fine white nationalists are Catholic, whether by cultural habit or conviction. But when Vincent no longer believes in something, he acts.

The Cathedral of Notre Dame, Paris. Even critics of Catholicism must admit that thousands of Talmuds were publicly burned here in 1242, in front of the church, after King Louis the Ninth, later made a Catholic saint, had discovered the Talmud’s filthy teachings about Gentiles and especially about Jesus — and in his royal presence the rabbis lost a debate over the Talmud by their endless lying.

(From https://aish.com/when-king-louis-ix-burned-the-talmud/)

On the morning of June 17, 1242, 24 wagons piled to the top with thousands of volumes of the Talmud and other Jewish books made their way slowly through Paris to the Place de Grève, near Notre Dame Cathedral.

The collection was enormous. At a time when every book was painstakingly written by hand, this represented generations of Jewish learning and work. It’s estimated that the wagons held about 10,000 books.

One by one, each of the two dozen wagons disgorged their books, dropping the precious texts onto the ground. By the end of the day, an enormous pile of Jewish writings covered the plaza. A crowd gathered to watch the conflagration as King Louis IX’s officials set the books on fire.

 

Back to Vincent Reynouard….. At 53 he has now lost yet again absolutely everything carnal and material, but I know him and he is not some resentful, white-trash, trailer-park dude with a bone to pick with the world. He is anything but a negative loser-type looking for some cause that encourages him to hate someone or something.

No, Vincent comes from a wholesome, proper, successful, upper-middle-class family from my beautiful, ancestral Normandy, the French province way up in the north of France and facing England.

Rynouard’s father was a medical doctor. On Sundays they would dine in a restaurant ensconced in a Loire Valley castle. Reynouard has an engineering degree, and was a beloved mathematics teacher in a French academic high school, a “lycée.”

Screenshot from a recent Reynouard video on “The profond cause of the decline of France, and reasons to hope.” 

He has had the very especial courage — as a patriotic Frenchman — to write the truth about two topics that in France are ultra-taboos and literally illegal to refute.

(All supposed “Nazi war crimes” as determined by the jew-run Nuremberg War Crimes [show] Trials in 1945-46 cannot legally be debunked; it is against French law to question them!!!)

Nevertheless,

1) Reynouard has proven that the Waffen-SS did NOT massacre 500 French villagers in the summer of 1944 in the village of Oradour-sur-Glane, a fake atrocity story which looms as a huge example of cold-blooded “Nazi” wickedness in the average Frenchman’s mind.

The church the villagers were confined in by the Waffen-SS during a search of the village for guns, ammunition, grenades and bombs had been filled to the gills itself with guns, ammo, grenades and bombs by the French Resistance — and it exploded with a roar during a firefight! The church itself WAS the secret arsenal!

 

2) The German Gestapo has been defended by the intrepid Reynouard — using hard, factual evidence — as having been far more humane in interrogating dangerous Allied prisoners than the Allies were with Germans.

When France was occupied by the Germans 1940-44, the Gestapo was a definite presence because of the danger posed to the Reich by the French Resistance and various jews — and greedy black marketeers.

Of course, no Frenchman “liked” the Gestapo in Occupied France; nor did the Germans in NS Germany like them either, for that matter. The Gestapo men were, after all, scary dudes — the secret police of the German Reich– the state security forces — and while every regime on this earth has such special police, no one likes cops who, whether in time of peace or war, arrest and interrogate the critics or opponents of the government.

So for Vincent to DEFEND the Gestapo to his fellow Frenchmen — and to defend the Waffen SS’s actions in Oradour, where 500 French villagers did die, though not by German choice — shows what, ahem, cojones the man has, and what a saintlike love of truth possesses his beautiful Aryan soul.

Margi and I stayed for three days in 2007 with Vincent, his wife and kids in Brussels, Belgium. To know this man is to love him.

Later on, I sent him $100.

This inspiring hero lives every single day without complaints for God, race, duty, and truth.

……Let’s get real, first of all, about torture and the US government

Truth time:

We American “good old boys” merely invade foreign countries that had never, ever attacked the US.

We Americans (that is, the Pentagon) routinely kills hundreds of thousands of civilians — deliberately.

They force heterosexual men, living in their own country, to violate their morals and fellate each other.

They gang-rape helpless women, and beat unarmed prisoners literally to death — all felony crimes that violate the Geneva Convention on the treatment of prisoners of war which the US signed.

(In my Marine Corps training as an interrogator in the late 1970s, none of this was advocated.)

The Jews defames Hitler, his Third Reich and his National Socialists with four horrible accusations:

A persona note: I got training myself as an interrogator while in the US Marine Corps Reserve 1977-79 (the then 35th ITT, Interrogator-Translator Team, located at the Washington DC Navy Yard and then at Anacostia Naval Air Station (now called “Anacostia-Bolling Joint Base”).

It is the rankest hypocrisy for the USA, with a LONG HISTORY OF TORTURE ITSELF, which by no means began with Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, or with Guantanamo, or the CIA rendition flights, to point the finger at the Gestapo and the Third Reich over this issue.

And Obama and Bush were openly FOR torture, as their ACTIONS showed, and they euphemistically called it “enhanced interrogation.” Donald Trump, not “draining the swamp” but joining it, made a torture advocate his CIA director.

.

.

…...REYNOUARD BRAVELY DEFENDS THE GESTAPO!

.

Already kept at home for three months in 2011 with an electronic bracelet, suddenly Vincent was arrested and taken to this prison in Forest, Belgium for forty days to live alongside the local criminals — White, Arab, Jewish and negro rapists, drug dealers, and pimps.

.

.

Reynouard spent almost a year in Valenciennes prison 2010-11, but more charges were piled on, and both he and his companion were arrested again (early 2014), and his video equipment, computer and DVD burner were seized.

.

.

No one in France (or elsewhere, to my knowledge) dared before our  brave Vincent to touch the “radioactive” topic of fairness to the Gestapo.

I wish to promote today, further below, more fine work by Reynouard. When I translated about 10 pages into English myself, and put it on this blogsite a decade ago, everyone begged for more.

And I wish to reiterate that I find it incredibly courageous of Vincent Reynouard, especially as a Frenchman (just think of how Hollywood via such movies as Casablanca promoted the “French Resistance” and the “Free French” forces) to defend the vilified Gestapo.

This is just as brave and principled as his defending of the Waffen-SS over Oradour, where the other big lie the French swallow with their mother’s milk is that the SS men massacred 500 French civilians.

Every French kid is brainwashed with Oradour ad infinitum as proof of  “le barbarisme nazi.”. It is like American kids being indoctrinated to worship Martin Luther King, Jr. and to see the Confederacy, the Dixie flag, and the Kzu Klux Klan as pure evil, and Abraham Lincoln as a godlike leader.

These are two sacred cows of la France résistante specifically, 1) “the Oradour massacre” and 2) the evil Gestapo and its head in France, Klaus Barbie, the “butcher of Lyons,” who supposedly tortured the “Resistance heroes.”

(My second wife, Brigitte, who was French, was a daughter, she said, of “résistants de la première heure”, of “resistants from the first hour,” i.e., from May 1940 on.)

The French police and the Belgian police both seem to be fishing about for NEW charges to lay on Reynouard, now that he is in British custody. (As I suspected, they did the same with Austrian WN Gerd Honsik, getting him into prison first on one outrageous charge, then adding two more trials and two more sentences once he was already in! Honsik did five years with rapists, pimps, drug dealers, pedophiles and murderers for his WRITINGS!

Reynouard was a brave national socialist from the beginning; here a headline about one of his many arrests: “[Holohoax] Denier in Brussels Arrested”

His fellow Austrian, Wolfgang Fröhlich (an engineer just like Reynouard), did over twelve years.

Now you see the full sadism of the Jew, piling the suffering on, higher and higher. In 2014 they attempted to have Richard Scutari, a key member of the revolutionary “Order” in the USA, transferred to an ultra-harsh new super-max regime with no visits except from family and no permission to read Movement literature DESPITE 25 YEARS OF PERFECT CONDUCT. (It appears that this attempt failed, however.)

When I first did this article, a tv news video about the Belgian cops looking for Reynouard was still online. Even without understanding French, la langue de l’amour, one could figure out what was happening. The blue-eyed bimbette was reporting breathlessly that her TV channel was doing a big, brave “exposé” of the “extreme rightwinger” who living in their innocent, previously hate-free Belgian capital city, Brussels.

(And it is SO hate-free, except for trifles like muslim gangs-raping white women and rioting when the soccer team of Morocco BEAT the Belgian team. If you don’t resent these daily atrocities, then all is indeed wonderful and hate-free. Have some more luscious Belgian chocolate and guzzle more beer with strawberry syrup. )

So the bimbette goes to his door, the camera rolling, to confront the dangerous extrémiste.

I and Margi had been in and out that very door. We stayed with the nearly saintly VR and his adorable family for almost three days.

The Reynouards had to cook, then a family of eight — later on, it grew to ten — on ONE hotplate, because not enough comrades supported them financially, and I saw them washing their dishes in the bathtub!

Shame — and a very black karma — on all who read and read, spongers who never support such heroes!

Here now was Margaret Huffstickler’s two-part article summarizing the research by gutsy Vincent Reynouard in his magazine Sans Concession “In Defense of the Gestapo”:

My late wife Margi herself was 1/4 Acadian-French, descended from the Falgau family.

 

 

THE TRUTH ABOUT THE GESTAPO, part I

by Vincent Reynouard

“Ge-sta-po.” Three syllables that evoke the shadowy spectre of an omnipresent, omnipotent and arbitrary monster; brutal arrests, violence and torture. Sinister figures — Heinrich Himmler, Klaus Barbie. . .

Heinrich Himmler, head of the SS and the German Police

But does this officially endorsed and endlessly invoked image correspond to reality? Vincent Reynouard wanted to find out for himself. In order to do this, he went to the source: he consulted the transcripts of the Nuremberg Trials and of the trials that took place in France starting in December, 1944, of the “auxiliaries” of the German police in the Occupied Territories.

“Don’t judge before you have heard both sides,” wrote Phocylides of Miletus in the sixth century BC.

“History is only half told when only one side tells it”

¦.adds an Icelandic proverb. Vincent Reynouard put these wise teachings into practice. He listened to the defense. In doing so he made unexpected discoveries, discoveries that call into question some fundamental tenets of the “official” history.

To share his findings Reynouard published a two-part article in in the December 2006 and February-March 2007 issues of his Revisionist journal Sans Concession, entitled “The Truth about the Gestapo.”

A typical issue back then of Sans Concession  [ Engl. “Without Concession”] magazine

The first part, on the subject of the Gestapo in Germany from April 1933 to September 1939, is far shorter (53 pages out of a total of 158) than the second, which deals with the Gestapo in German-occupied France.

That is because, while the situation in the Occupied Territories was extremely complex, requiring in-depth analysis of many factors and a multiplicity of examples, the non-criminality of the Gestapo in the pre-war period is an open and shut case, as Reynouard skilfully demonstrates.

Part I “the Gestapo in Germany 1933-1939″

At the post World War II International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg, the Gestapo (a word taken from Ge-Sta-Po, meaning in German the Geheime Staatspolizei = Secret State Police) was one of many organizations collectively indicted under Articles 9 and 10 of the “London Charter,” in which the Tribunal gave itself the power to designate an organization as “criminal” and then indict members merely on the basis of their belonging to said organization.

The stately Reichssicherheitshauptamt (Reich Security Headquarters) on Prinz Albrecht St. in the Charlottenburg section of Berlin

In his opening address the United States chief prosecutor Robert Jackson set the tone for six and a half decades (and counting) of anti-Gestapo invective, by declaring:

“Through the police formations that are before you accused as criminal organizations, the Nazi Party leaders. . .instituted a reign of terror. These espionage and police organizations were utilized to hunt down every form of opposition and to penalize all nonconformity.” [IMT II, 128]

His assistant Commander, Frank B. Wallis, chimed in, denouncing the Gestapo as “. . . the vicious tools used in the extermination of all opposition, real or potential” [IMT II, 193].

Political police forces existed in Germany before 1933

The Gestapo was ably defended at Nuremberg by Rudolf Merkel, who began his defense by dispelling the notion that the Gestapo was a terrorist organization created out of thin air to serve the criminal needs of the Hitler regime, as was frequently claimed, for example, by the left-wing French weekly Le Combat, which wrote in 1939 :

“The Weimar Republic had thought it unnecessary to create a political police force. Hitler’s first concern, upon his accession to power, on 30 January 1933, was to repair this error. [Notre combat, n° 13, 15 December 1939, issue entitled: “La Gestapo: ses origines, ses chefs, son organization,” p. 1].

As Merkel pointed out, this claim could not be more wrong. Not only had a very active and effective police existed during the Weimar Republic, but their main focus of attention (with the Communist party a close second) had been the National Socialist German Workers Party (NSDAP) itself!

The difference between the pre-1933 political police and the Gestapo, as former Gestapo head Karl Best testified at Nuremberg, was merely that, rather than answering to a central authority, these “political police systems . . . in the individual German states . . . were created by the various state governments concerned” [IMT XX, 124].

All that Goering did in April of 1933, in “creating” the Gestapo, was to reorganize and centralize the existing political police forces. In fact, the vast majority of officers in the various branches of the “new” service were simply retained from the Weimar times. Why did Goering do this? As he testified at Nuremberg;

I took a great number of functionaries [into the newly created Gestapo]. who were not political at all, simply because of their knowledge of the technical aspects of the work; at the beginning I chose very few people from Party circles because for the time being I had to attach the greatest importance to professional ability. [IMT IX, 256].

Reichsmarschall Hermann Goering

In support of Göring’s testimony, former local Gestapo head Karl Hoffmann stated that “most” of the members of his service were “employees who had entered the police before 1933 [when Hitler came to power] and had been detailed or transferred to the State Police.” The proportion of volunteers who entered after 1933 only reached “at most 10 % or 15 %” of effective staff.”(!)

This is a far cry from the claim in the Nuremberg indictment that the functionaries and agents of the newly-created police force were “selected in accordance with Nazi biological, racial, and political theories, and completely indoctrinated in Nazi ideology” [IMT I, 82].

The Gestapo was not an arm of the NSDAP

Thus the Gestapo was not an arm of the NSDAP, as is frequently implied or alleged, but a perfectly ordinary state police force, such as virtually all countries have. Its objective, as set out in the Preamble of the decree reorganizing and unifying the German police, was to

“protect the German people from any attempts at destruction by interior and exterior enemies.”

It is often claimed that members of the Gestapo were members of the SS, as evidence that they were indeed a “Nazi” organization ” and it is true that during the war some members of the Gestapo received a post in the SS, with the corresponding rank and uniform.

However, as revealed in Nuremberg Trial testimony, the objective was solely to reinforce the authority of ordinary officials, and did not imply political or ideological affiliation:

“The reason for this assimilation was the following: . . . civil servants were . . . not particularly respected by the Party. . . because of their political, or non-political, past. In order to strengthen their authority in the discharge of their duties, in particular when acting against individual National Socialists, they were to appear in uniform.” [IMT XXI, 506]

In fact, their SS rank had no practical effect on the functions of Gestapo members; their duties and the chain of command remained the same. Likewise, when SS members joined the Gestapo, as sometimes happened (contingent upon passing an examination to which all candidates were subject), they were henceforth considered civil servants, and operated within the Gestapo hierarchy.

Why create the Gestapo?

To readers who may be wondering “If the Gestapo was not, in reality, a new agency, why change the structure and give it a new name?” Reynouard responds, “To understand this, one must understand the context of Germany in 1931-1932.” Drawing from contemporary sources, he then spends over a third of “The Truth about the Gestapo, Part I” vividly depicting the relentlessly deteriorating economic situation.

The Leipziger Volkszeitung [= “Leipzig Peoples’ News”] wrote, following one of the government’s countless emergency decrees: “. . . the blackest pessimism has once again been exceeded. . .”

There was a chaotic political situation with 19 different Weimar Republic governments between 1918 and 1932, and there was an increasing danger of an uprising by the six million Communists in Germany, their numbers swelled by masses of the unemployed, which two factors together threatened to destroy Germany if drastic remedies were not applied.

Ernst Thälmann, leader of the gigantic German Communist Party (KPD), who took his orders from Stalin

By 1932 even the [Catholic-dominated] Center party [which had fiercely opposed the NS  movement] wanted a majority government with Hitler, and most of the newspapers were clamoring for the National Socialists to “step up to the plate,” including, surprisingly, some left-wing publications. For example, the Frankfurter Zeitung wrote on August 7, 1932: “The National Socialists have the imperious duty to participate in governmental responsibility.”

The National Socialists, however, had no intention of merely “participating” in a government. They were firmly opposed to half-measures. They understood that only a completely new system would be able to turn the situation around, and for that they needed absolute authority and enough time to put the new system firmly in place.

An SA man in 1932

But time was just what the Communists had no intention of giving the National Socialists, being well aware that if Hitler’s government succeeded it would be the death knell of the Communist party in Germany.

The Gestapo: a defensive organization

Just how palpable was the Bolshevik threat at the time of Hitler’s ascension to power?

On the night of his inauguration, January 30-31, 1933, the Communists carried out a “symbolic” double assassination to show their determination: the murder of police agent Zaunitz and the commander of the 33rd assault company of Berlin, Maïkowicz, who were returning from a victory parade. [Source: Documentation Catholique, n° 656, April 29 1933, col. 1040] In response, Hitler announced in his speech of February 1, 1933:

[The national government] will conduct . . . a pitiless war against nihilist tendencies in the moral, political and cultural sphere. Germany must not sink, and will not sink, into anarchic communism [Source: “Declaration du government national” op cit.].

Writes Vincent Reynouard,

“For the National Socialists, whose grip on power was still weak (many people thinking they would not last more than a few weeks), the danger was therefore real of seeing the Reds attempt a revolutionary uprising.”

At Nuremberg, under direct examination by his attorney, Göring summed up the matter as follows:

“It was a matter of course for us that once we had come into power we were determined to keep that power under all circumstances. We did not want power and governmental authority for power’s sake — rather we needed power and governmental authority in order to make Germany free and great. We did not want to leave this any longer to chance.  . .  but we wanted to carry out the task to which we considered ourselves called.” [IMT IX -250].

In short, as Karl Hoffmann testified at Nuremberg, in response to Dr. Merkel’s question, “the Gestapo was not an aggressive, but a defensive organization.”

The deceptive figure of 75, 000 Gestapo agents

But what of the “reign of terror” spoken of by Justice Jackson at the Nuremberg Tribunal? A sceptical reader might ask: aren’t we told that the Gestapo agents — granted, as a “defensive” measure – set up networks of informants who constantly spied on the population in order to “hunt down every form of opposition and to penalize all nonconformity?”

It is true, replies Reynouard, that Rudolf Merkel, at Nuremberg, gave the number of Gestapo employees at 75,000 at the time of its greatest expansion, but as he went on to explain, this figure is deceptive, because only approximately 20% of Gestapo personnel were actually in the field as agents.

“I estimate the number of its staff, during the period when it was numerically strongest, at approximately 75,000. The executive officials, numbering approximately 15,000 men, therefore constituted only 20 percent of the total strength. If we deduct from that the five or six thousand men belonging to the Counter-Intelligence and Frontier Police, there remain nine or ten thousand executives, or 12 to 13 percent of the total strength.” [IMT XXI 543, final summation of Dr. Merkel]

Since Germany had about 72 million inhabitants in 1937, there would have been approximately

one Gestapo agent for every

7,200 persons.

This fact makes it abundantly clear that for the Gestapo to have set up a surveillance network to spy on the “entire population” would have been impossible. 

According to Karl Best at Nuremberg:

BEST: It is not true. . . that the Gestapo had a net of spies and information agencies which kept track of the entire people. With so few officials. . . nothing like that could be carried out [IMT XX, 128].

The Gestapo and concentration camps

On February 28, 1933, the German government issued a law authorizing “preventive detention,” which permitted the sending of suspects to concentration camps, a measure which was then used for detaining thousands of Communists.

At Nuremberg the indictment declared:

“In order to make their rule secure from attack and to instil fear in the hearts of the German people, the Nazi conspirators established and extended a system of terror against opponents and supposed or suspected opponents of the regime. They imprisoned such persons without judicial process, holding them in “protective custody” and concentration camps.”[IMT I – 32]

Reynouard makes three main points about the concentration camps. First, concentration camps were the invention, not of the Germans, but of the British, who used them to imprison and starve to death Boer women and children in South Africa 1900-02 until their men-folk were forced to surrender. (This was a favorite British tactic, used in 1919 to force the German delegation at the Versailles conference to assume guilt for World War I. The Royal Navy blockaded Germany, making the whole country into one gigantic concentration camp full of starving women and children).

Lizzie Van Zyl, one of many Boer children whom the British deliberately starved in what the British called (their word) “concentration camps.”

Fewer readers may know about the World War I French concentration camps in which 35,000 Austro-Germans resident in France were interned.

Moreover, even in Germany, the concept and practice of “protective custody” did not originate with Hitler’s regime. Dr. Merkel, in his final summation, recalled:

“In Germany, too, protective custody existed prior to 1933. At that time, both Communists and National Socialists were arrested by the police.” [IMT XXI, 518]

Reynouard’s second point is that, contrary to the myth of “arbitrariness,” Gestapo agents were not authorized to send people to concentration camps on their own initiative. As Dr. Merkel explained:

[…]. The individual member of the Gestapo was concerned only with investigations. After the completion of the investigation . . . the file was sent to the central headquarters in Berlin (which later became Amt IV of the RSHA (Reichs Sicherheitshauptamt=Office of State Security), which alone could make a decision.  [IMT XXI, 517].

Thirdly, a quick look at the numbers shows the ludicrosity of the claim that all opponents of the government were rounded up and thrown into concentration camps. Comparing the number of political prisoners in 1939 Germany, which Dr. Merkel estimated at about 40,000, with the total number of Germans in that year, 80 MILLION, it is clear that there is a huge discrepancy.

Only 1 German in 2,000 was a political prisoner.

“It is therefore completely incorrect,” writes Reynouard, “to claim that under Hitler, the mere fact of having expressed opposition to the regime or having criticized it in a conversation on the street would have had you sent to a concentration camp by the order of an all-powerful Gestapo  [Footnote: See also the article, “The Facts About the Origins of the Concentration Camps and Their Administration” in The Barnes Review, Jan./Feb. 2001, pp. 11-16. (the Concentration Camp Money special “All-Holocaust” issue)]

The Gestapo was not above the law.

The Gestapo, like – in theory – most police forces, was not above the law. Appeals could be filed against its methods. In 1935, an administrative journal of the Reich wrote:

“Since the Law on the Gestapo of November 30, 1933 became effective, orders of the Gestapo Office can no longer be contested according to the provisions of the Law on Police Administration. The only remedy against them is a complaint through investigation channels.” [IMT XXI, 283]

In other words there had been, and continued to be, measures that could be taken if the Gestapo broke the law.

Before 1939 many police forces throughout the world collaborated with the Gestapo.

During the trial, Dr. Merkel introduced two sworn statements (Gestapo affidavits nos. 26 and 89) which recalled that, before the war, very many police organizations had collaborated with the Gestapo, and that delegations from other countries had undergone periods of practical training on Gestapo premises.

In his final summation Dr. Merkel stated, quite reasonably:

“It never even occurred to Gestapo officials. . . that they might be accused abroad of acting arbitrarily. . . If foreign countries had objected to the aims pursued by the Gestapo, it would not have been conceivable for numerous foreign police systems to work in close collaboration with the German Gestapo. . . and with the intention of learning from it.” [IMT XX, 510]

The Nuremberg tribunal vindicates Dr. Merkel

Despite all its attempts, the Nuremberg prosecution was incapable of refuting these arguments. So much so, that at the end of the trial the Tribunal, unsurprisingly, being an Allied tool, declared the Gestapo a criminal organization, but said it began to be “criminal” only from September 1, 1939 on, when the war began.

In the judgment, one reads:

…this group declared criminal cannot include, therefore, persons who had ceased to belong to the organizations enumerated in the preceding paragraph prior to September 1, 1939 [IMT X, 273].

Writes Reynouard:

“This is proof that the Tribunal did not consider the activities of the Gestapo during peacetime to be criminal.

It cannot be repeated often enough: until 1939, the Gestapo was a perfectly ordinary political police force, such as exists in all so-called ‘civilized’ countries… Unless the existence of armed clandestine networks or espionage groups was suspected, its methods of investigation were minimal; out of ten denunciations, nine were tossed in the waste basket…”

Why conceal this fact?

The decision of the judges at Nuremberg is very rarely mentioned correctly. Most of the time, it is merely said that at Nuremberg the Gestapo was declared criminal, without elaboration, as if this statement were valid for its entire existence from 1933-45.

Why hide the fact that the Gestapo was declared to be criminal only after September 1939? “Because,” writes Reynouard, “this fact disproves once again the notion that the National Socialists plunged Germany into terror starting in February 1933 in order to maintain their hold on power.”
[…]

The fact is that the National Socialist government was popular and remained popular, even after the adoption of its first “anti-democratic” measures, since the German people knew that these measures were aimed, not against the masses, but against individuals who, incapable of overcoming their ideological or philosophical prejudices, risked impeding the promised work of lifting the nation up.

In this climate, the Gestapo was a simple tool of protection of the State against subversive minorities. It did not think of sending hundreds of thousands of people to the camps, or of instituting a reign of terror, for the good and simple reason that

the immense majority of people followed Hitler voluntarily.

Hence the fact that at Nuremberg, the judges gave up attempting to declare the Gestapo criminal before 1939. It was impossible, since the evidence showed that the prosecution evidence was fallacious.
.
All this, however, must be hidden from the masses. This is why 76 years after the verdict at Nuremberg our public controllers continue to conceal the fact that at the end of the Nuremberg Trial, the Gestapo was never declared “criminal” for the entire peacetime period from 1933 to September 1939.

…..THE TRUTH ABOUT THE GESTAPO, part 2

The Gestapo in the Occupied Territories, and Particularly in France,

Hidden revelations of the post-war trials

By Vincent Reynouard

Translated by Margaret Huffstickler, looking mighty feisty (and she was) 😉

Having established in Part One that the Gestapo in Germany up until September 1, 1939, far from being an instrument of terror, was merely a means of protecting the state from enemies within and without, Reynouard proceeds to deal with the thornier question of its wartime conduct in the territories that were militarily occupied by Germany.

He imagines a reader saying, “The fact that the Gestapo did not have to persecute the German population, since the Germans accepted the Nazi dictatorship, means very little. However, during the war they showed their true colors when they sowed terror in the occupied territories, arresting, deporting, torturing, shooting. . . They acted in accordance with the racist Hitlerian doctrine, according to which anyone who was not ‘pure German’ was a subhuman and thus could be vilified, humiliated, and killed . . .”

Since this argument is a very strong one, writes Reynouard, he spends some time answering it.

The real purpose of the Allied crusade, and its consequences for Germany

Reynouard places this topic first for good reason: as he reminds us, all the actions of the Gestapo in the occupied territories must be placed in the context of the fact that the war declared on Germany on September 3, 1939 was a war of extermination.

Even according to Christian morality, self defense is permitted: according to Thomas Aquinas, “If . . . one kills someone to defend one’s life, one is not guilty of murder.”

“Well,” writes Reynouard, “what is true of a man is also true of a country, in this case, Germany.”

By 1940 it had become amply clear that the war was not about defending Poland, but about the total destruction of Germany. Thus, the actions of the Gestapo in France: “. . . were precise actions dictated solely by the necessities of the moment to protect its existence. One cannot, therefore, recognize in these acts the result of any ideology. When one defends his life, one no longer acts according to one’s philosophical principles, but rather according to the instinct for self-preservation. If one wishes to judge National Socialism (or more particularly the Gestapo) one must judge it in times of peace, not in wartime –” and above all not during the two last years of the war, when everything was collapsing in Germany, faced with an enemy which destroyed its cities one by one, exterminating its women and children, and which promised to continue until unconditional surrender.” (And beyond, I might add, since as we know the postwar death toll for Germans was much higher than the body count during the war.)

Bombed German cities

A traumatized, wounded German boy civilian, guided by his upset grandfather, on April 12, 1945 in Lenne in Schmallenberg, now in North-Rhine-Westphalia. The All-Lies bombed the civilians of a collapsing Germany to the very last day of the war. A black-karma-ridden America will not avoid WWIII unless it apologizes to the German people for the atrocities of WWII! 

Unlike the whining, victim-playing jews, the Germans, who were true victims, rubbed their hands together after 1948 (when the German economy was finally unshackled) to restore and rebuild Linne and a thousand other beautiful German villages and cities. (It looks like Linne has a Christmas-tree farm in the upper right. 🙂 )  

Carbonized human beings in Bremen and Hamburg — thanks, jews. How can we ever repay you????? I know some ways…..

.

In other words, what the victors chose to call “Nazi barbarism” or the result of a “racist police state” was, in the vast majority of cases, the consequence of the war of extermination declared by the Allies against the Reich on September 3, 1939.

At Nuremberg, towards the end of his summation, defense counsel Dr. Rudolf Merkel had the courage to say the following:

“One last point, however — and perhaps the most profound — must not be overlooked in this connection.

The German soldier, the German civil servant, the German working man, and every single German knew that the world had placed us in a situation which meant a life-and-death struggle.

In the course of the war it gradually became appallingly clear that it was a question of existence or extermination. Indeed, you would be misjudging the soul of the German people if you overlooked the fact that every decent German, when he realized this horrible truth, felt himself under an obligation to do everything that was expected of him in order to save his country.

And when we judge the behaviour of the German people and its political police, we must take these factors into consideration in order to do them justice.” [IMT XXI, 540]

Moreover, the growing organized resistance to the occupying forces, and the growing resentment by the French people as a consequence of the reprisals by the Germans against partisan atrocities, took its toll on the mood of the Gestapo, even as the overall situation became more desperate. Having thus placed in context the arguments that are to follow, Reynouard proceeds to specifics.

On the omnipresence and omnipotence of the Gestapo in the occupied territories.

Writes Reynouard:

“If one believes the stories of the Resistance members, the Gestapo was everywhere in the occupied territories. An illegal arms cache is discovered? It’s the work of the Gestapo! A search is conducted? It’s the Gestapo! A network is dismantled: The Gestapo! Resistance members are deported? Gestapo! Innocent people arrested? It’s the arbitrary power of the Gestapo! In sum, from 1940 to 1945, the Gestapo is said to have been a monster with immense power, present everywhere at once to cause a reign of terror in the occupied territories.”

This image is, of course, very far from the truth. The Gestapo simply did not have the capability. The war had caught them unprepared, and they did not have reservists to call on, as the regular police did. They were also short of arms, trucks, radio equipment, etc. for the occupied territories. When questioned at Nuremberg on the number of Gestapo personnel in occupied France, Ernst Kaltenbrunner, the third head of the RSHA [photo r.], said he believed he had heard a figure of around 800(!) [IMT XI-408].

If the proportion of bureaucrats to field officers was, as in peacetime Germany, 80/20, one is left with the incredibly puny figure of 200 active Gestapo agents in all of occupied France!

Moreover, these few agents were divided among four different services, including 1) suppression of the black market, 2) tracking German deserters, leaving only a few dozen for 3) tracking down Jews or 4) fighting the Resistance.

.

So much for the Gestapo as an “omnipresent, omnipotent monster in the occupied territories.”

Gestapo as Scapegoat

As a result of their lack of manpower and means, the Gestapo were forced to rely on auxiliaries recruited from the occupied territories, many of whom were not trained for police work, and some of them were of dubious character.

The deeds of the latter were, of course, blamed on the Gestapo, as were the actions of other branches of German law enforcement in the occupied territories. As Dr. Merkel explained at the Nuremberg Tribunal:

Klaus Barbie

“It was customary to ascribe to the Gestapo all police measures, terror acts, deprivations of freedom, and killings, as long as they had any police connection at all. It became the scapegoat for all misdeeds ever committed or rumored in Germany and the occupied territories, and today it is made to bear responsibility for all evil. . . . The error arises from the fact that the whole police system, whether Criminal Police, Wehrmacht Police, Political Police, or SD, . . . are wrongly considered to have been Gestapo.” [IMT XXI-500].

Post “Liberation” trials of Auxiliaries in France

Reynouard bases “The Truth about the Gestapo, Part II” mainly on the transcripts of four French trials of the “auxiliaries of the Gestapo” in France that took place between 1944 and 1947 ” in some cases contrasting the testimony at these trials with the distorted versions used at the Nuremberg Tribunal. The records of the trials are available at the Bibliotheque de Documentation Internationale Contemporaine (BDIC), located at Nanterre, France. The four trials were:

Trial of the “Bonny-Lafon gang” (PBL= Proces Bonny-Lafon) December 1944,

Trial of “Georgia Gestapo” (PGG) July 1945

Trial of “Gestapo of Neuilly” (PGN) November 1945

Trial of French auxiliaries of the Gestapo (PAFG) February-March 1947

The previous life stories of some of their leaders give some idea of the personnel composing these police units. For example, Henri Lafon (photo), of the Bonny-Lafon group (real name Henri Chamberlin) had had an unfortunate childhood, orphaned and homeless at the age of 11, and was later convicted of various petty crimes.

Many of his group were recruited among men he knew from his stretches in prison. His partner, Pierre Bonny (photo), was a former chief inspector of police who had been fired as a result of a couple of serious scandals.

The head of the “Georgia Gestapo,” Chalva (or Chaliko) Odicharia was a troubled adventurer from Kloni, Georgia, a refugee in France since the 1920s.

An exception was Georges Collignon, born in 1917 of a respectable family, well educated, and working as a broker in a commissions agency at the beginning of the occupation. He joined the “Georgia Gestapo” for reasons of conscience, because he saw the havoc being caused by Resistance actions and the resultant German reprisals, after what had been previously a relatively peaceful occupation:

COLLIGNON. “ It was necessary to prevent the cases which were occurring [i.e., Communist sabotage and assassinations], because the Germans threatened to carry out mass deportations and executions, as at Chateaubriand. It was a question of preventing, to a certain extent, in my view, assassination attacks and bombings against the army, either the occupying forces or any other, which could place French people in almost hopeless situations […] I’m not talking about ideals. I have said that I am an advocate of order.

Reboul: What order?

COLLIGNON: That order prevails, that our lives are not constantly in danger. . .

Not surprisingly, the defendant was ultimately sentenced to death. “Personally,” writes Reynouard, “I take my hat off to him. I salute you, Georges Collignon.”

Was the Gestapo in France RACIST?

One of the establishment’s favorite claims about the Gestapo, as we have seen, is that they were the enforcement arm of a “racist police state.” However, a look at the records of the postwar trials reduces this thesis, in Reynouard’s words, to a “nullity.”

His first example is in the person of the number-two man in the “Georgia Gestapo,” Henri Oberschmuckler, who was “- a Jew!

Born in 1902, at Kerch (Crimea, where the famous new Russian bridge between Russia and Crimea is located), he volunteered for the French army while residing in France in 1939. Captured by the Germans in 1940, far from being deported to a concentration camp, he was made “general interpreter” for the Stalag. Freed as a war wounded at the end of 1941, he returned to Paris in April 1942 and later enlisted with the “Georgia Gestapo,” under the German Military Police, where he soon rose to head of the searches and confiscations office. In August 1944 he left France with the Germans, taking with him his savings of 800,000 francs.

As another example of the lack of “racism” of the Gestapo in France, Reynouard introduces readers to the figure of Mohamed El Maadi, a North African Arab Berber from a noble family, a knight of the Legion d’Honneur, holder of the Médaille Militaire and the Croix de Guerre, living in Paris under the Occupation.

In 1943 El Maadi founded a monthly newspaper entitled Er Rachid, in which he wrote numerous editorials giving his opinion of the occupation, the Germans, and of the latter’s attitude toward and treatment of the North African population.

Both his opinions of the “racist” Germans and his interactions with them contradict the standard thesis. From the first issue of Er Rachid, he clearly announced his objective: the struggle for the liberation of North Africa, alongside the Germans:

Our duty is to free ourselves from the Judeo-Anglo-Saxon ascendency. . . Alongside the European armies, we must undertake the struggle for liberation of our territory. [Er Rachid, January 1, 1943] [XXX “Er Rachid-6”].

El Maadi had some choice words to say on the behavior of the “Liberators” and the “Crusaders for Civilization,” compared to that of the Germans:

The Germans had hardly disembarked in Tunisia when they hired a native work force. . . at salaries identical to those paid to workers in France, Germany and Norway, while on the other hand the “Liberators,” when they deigned not to pay in ‘monkey money’ offered 10 to 18 francs for 12 hours work. . . In Tunis [under the German occupation] the public transports were open to everyone; elsewhere the natives traveled in special coaches” [XXX “Er Rachid-9]

After the first few issues, El Maadi had a difficult time obtaining paper on which to print his publication, so he went to the French Gestapo,” aka “the Bonny-Lafon gang” and spoke with Henri Lafon. Did Lafon tell the “sand ngr” to get lost? No, he helped him. El Maadi ended up getting the paper he needed and Er Rachid was printed on the presses of the major collaborationist” newspaper, Paris Soir.

As a result of their relationship with El Maadi, the Germans decided to recruit North Africans, as they had previously recruited Georgians (hence the “Georgia Gestapo”). Eventually, five sections of 30 to 50 were set up as the LVF (Legion of French Volunteers Against Bolshevism).(PBL, 1, p. 59-60).

So much for the “racist doctrines” that were said to have motivated the Gestapo.

Was the Gestapo in France arbitrary?

“On a simple, unverified denunciation, without previous investigation. . . masses of arbitrary arrests took place in every occupied country” [IMT V-401].

So claimed François de Menthon, French prosecutor at Nuremberg, in his opening summation January 17, 1946, thus setting the tone for the official history of the past 76 years. However, testimony given during the French trials studied by Reynouard reveals that, in fact, the opposite was true. He makes the following points:

First of all, many denunciations were not followed up on. Owing to their shortage of manpower and means, the German police forces and their auxiliaries simply could not act upon every denunciation that was made. In order to take action they required that clear evidence be produced and therefore, if their preliminary investigation failed to turn up such evidence, the case would be dropped. Other denunciations were ignored because the alleged crimes were not serious enough to justify further action, and still others just fell between the cracks.

Furthermore, an investigation did not always result in an arrest — again, strong evidence of guilt was required. People who were arrested and who had done nothing wrong were usually released, while others who were guilty, but against whom no proof was found, were frequently given the benefit of the doubt and released.

There was, in fact, a required procedure that severely limited the possibility of arbitrary action by the auxiliaries: after a denunciation had been received and a preliminary investigation carried out, a report was sent “upstairs” to the German agency to whom the auxiliary force was accountable. Only after the officials at the Rue de Saussaies (Gestapo headquarters), in the Avenue Foch (Sicherheitsdienst) or at the Hotel Lutetia (Military Police) had evaluated the report and given orders, could the auxiliaries proceed to action.

Moreover, assuming that strong evidence of guilt was found, the agents had no power to determine punishment.

The accused still had to go before a judge, who would decide their guilt or innocence and, if they were found guilty, sentence them.

And how does one categorize the case of Bernard Humbert? After going before a judge and being acquitted for lack of evidence, he was nonetheless held as a hostage because of Communist attentats that had just been committed. However, 10 days later:

. . . on 14 November [1941], my mother and my wife, who was about to give birth to our sixth child, came. . . to see me, and they mentioned the birth of my sixth child which was about to occur; . . . seeing that my sixth child was about to be born, they then released me.” [PGG, dossier 2, p. 90].

Finally, simply by looking at the evidence in the 63 “Gestapo” cases mentioned in the French trials with an eye to determining the guilt or innocence of the “victims,” Reynouard finds that, excluding 7 that are unclear, of the remaining 56 cases only four very probably involved innocent people.

“With these exceptions,” he writes, “all the dossiers mentioned during the trials of the Neuilly Gestapo involved persons who were obviously guilty of illegal acts (manufacture of false papers, giving information to the enemy,. . . weapons dealing, attempted murder of police agents, etc.”

That is an accuracy rate of 93% — in other words, not very “arbitrary!”

Did the Gestapo sow terror?

Were the ordinary people of France terrified of the Gestapo? This would certainly have been the case had the Gestapo in Occupied France lived up to its future monstrous reputation. Based on trial testimony and other primary sources, Reynouard presents several cases that prove the opposite.

The first case is that of aFrench prefect who absolutely refused to carry out an order from the Gestapo:

In December 1943, the prefect of Isère, Jacques Henry, was warned by the commander of the Gestapo of Lyon that he was going to receive a sealed bag containing a cadaver. He was instructed to incinerate the bag without opening it. He indignantly refused “ official procedure required that the bag be opened, the corpse identified if possible, etc. The commander, angry, declared , “The regional prefect of Lyon never raises objections in such cases.” Calling his bluff, Henry immediately telephoned the regional prefect of Lyon to ask if this was true. As he later testified:

“He asked me to put the Commander on the phone. I held the receiver and was thus able to hear the regional prefect deny the allegation and call the German a ˜liar.'”

The Gestapo made repeated requests for 48 hours, which Henry continued to refuse, and they finally gave up.

[Source: Deposition of Jacques Henry filed at the Hoover Foundation and published in La vie de la France sous l’Occupation, 1940-1944 (ed. Plon, 1957), p. 497]

Other examples involve cases in which, after a search by the “Gestapo” (in reality, local auxiliaries of the Gestapo or of other German police forces), money and/or jewelry was found to be missing.

If the victims of the thefts had been terrified of the Gestapo, they would obviously have kept quiet and thanked their lucky stars that they hadn’t been arrested, tortured and sent to concentration camps. Instead, they filed complaints against the Gestapo for theft!

In the case of one of the women, Mme. Plait, whose husband and son had been arrested (they were eventually deported), upon discovering the theft she immediately went to the Feldgendarmerie, which sent a telegram to Paris. In Paris Henri Lafon, of the “Bonny-Lafon Gang,” gathered all his men together, found out who the thief was, and returned what was left of the stolen jewels.

In fact, it appears from the records that Lafon punished thefts by his men very severely, and did his best to prevent such behavior.

But Reynouard’s point is that filing complaints against the Gestapo for theft, calling a commandant of the Gestapo a liar or adamantly refusing to follow his orders are not the behaviors of a terrorized population.

Was the Gestapo authorized to torture?

In support of their contention that the Gestapo practiced torture, upholders of the standard narrative cite two decrees put out by the German government in 1937 and 1943. The first, by Reinhardt Heydrich (photo below), authorized “intensified interrogations” (verschärfte Vernehmungen) in order to nip in the bud actions of conspirators and enemies of the state.

The decree stipulated that such techniques should never be used in order to extort confessions, but only to obtain important information. As Karl Best explained at Nuremberg:

“Heydrich. . . called attention to the fact that foreign police agencies widely applied such methods. He emphasized, however, that he had reserved for himself the right of approval in every individual case; thus he felt it would be impossible for abuse to take place.” [IMT XX-134]

The first of the two decrees permitted, as the most severe of several options, the administration of 20 blows with a stick on the buttocks of the recalcitrant interrogee.

However, the 1942 decree rescinded this authorization and, according to the testimony of Karl Best at Nuremberg, allowed recourse only to milder measures such as “standing at interrogations,” or performing “fatiguing exercises” [IMT XX-180]

The Nuremberg Tribunal, as Reynouard points out, revealed its dishonesty by not allowing testimony from Ernst Kaltenbrunner (photo; as former president of the International Criminal Police Commission, he was an authority on the subject) which showed that police forces around the world practiced such “third degree” methods.

Karl Hoffmann, at Nuremberg, explained why these methods were used in the occupied territories:

“HOFFMANN: Yes, third degree was carried out during interrogations. To explain this I have to point out that the resistance organizations occupied themselves with the following: First, attacks on German soldiers; secondly, attacks on trains, means of transport, and Armed Forces’ installations, in the course of which soldiers were also killed; thirdly, elimination of all so-called informers and people collaborating with the German Police or other German authorities.

In order to forestall those dangers and to save the lives of Germans, third-degree interrogation was ordered and carried out, but only in these particular cases” [IMT XX-164].

Notice that the resistance organizations were killing, not only Germans, but also civilians of the occupied territories!

Another point, which Reynouard does not make in this article but which I would like to make, is that the partisans in the occupied territories did practice torture, not only much more than the Gestapo did, but much more savagely — and not for the purpose of extracting crucial information, but for terroristic purposes of revenge and deterrence (and perhaps out of the very sadism of which they endlessly accuse the Germans).

The official story was born — or at least received its official status — at Nuremberg, where the prosecution claimed that, wherever they held sway, the “Nazis” never ceased torturing their adversaries.

On 22 November 1945, the correspondent for the daily Le Monde wrote:

. . . this summation for the prosecution is the history of the terrorization and torture of Europe for more than ten years, , , a history of assassination attempts, murders, tortures. . .

Everywhere the Nazi reign prevailed, deportations, tortures, concentration camps, and gas chambers were the result. [Source: Le Monde, 22 November 1945, p. 1].

On 17 January 1946, in his opening summation, French prosecutor Francois de Menthon said: “We are, in fact, faced by systematic criminality, which derives directly. . . from a monstrous doctrine put into practice with deliberate intent by the masters of Nazi Germany. “[IMT V-379].

“Except that,” as Reynouard points out, such “‘systematic criminality’ put in place for four years on a European scale would have required general orders.

But the defense witnesses and defendants were adamant: between 1933 and 1945, no order was ever received by the police services authorizing recourse to torture against Resistance members.”

In fact, there were stringent rules against mistreatment of prisoners, as the following interchange shows:

DR. HĀNSEL: According to your knowledge, were there regulations prohibiting the physical ill-treatment of concentration camp inmates, and were these regulations known to the SS?

KALTENBRUNNER: They were issued in print: that is, contained in nearly every gazette of the Reichsfuhrer SS and the Chief of the German Police. Every SS man knew these regulations were laws, and they were punished heavily if ill-treatment was reported or became evident.

They had their own SS and Police courts. I can characterize this system in one sentence by stating that the penalties were much more severe than in a civil court.

For its part, the prosecution was unable to produce one single German order authorizing torture.

DID THE GESTAPO TORTURE?

In this section Reynouard closely analyzes testimonies in the post- “Libération” French trial records that allege torture by the “Gestapo,” and he finds that quite a few simply don’t hold up.

For example, was there a “cold room” in the Rue de Londres? During the trial of the “Georgia Gestapo,” the group was accused of possessing a “cold room” in which prisoners were confined. But at the hearing the witness who had mentioned the “cold room” explained that the phrase was the result of a misunderstanding:

THE GOVERNMENT COMMISSIONER. “You spoke of a ‘cold room.'”

HELENE DE TRANZE. “ It was an office that was not heated. . . That’s why I mentioned a ‘cold room’. I called it that. I was so confused; when I said a ˜cold room’, I meant just an unheated office [PGG, dossier 12, p. 27].

And what about alleged “traces of blood” at 93 Rue Lauriston?

This was the headquarters of the “Bonny-Lafon” group, and at the time of the “Libération” there were stories about traces of blood said to have been discovered there, attesting to abominable tortures.

During the “Bonny-Lafon” trial, a witness testified, who had been one of the first persons to enter the “Gestapo” headquarters after its “liberation” and had been able to see everything:

“THE PRESIDENT. “You saw no inscriptions on the walls, no traces of blood?”

M. SECQ. “Traces of blood, no. There were inscriptions on the walls; the unfortunate persons confined there must have been very bored; they kept calendars on the walls. . . But no traces of blood and no instruments of torture” [PBL, 6, p. 113, deposition of M. Secq.]

“To my knowledge,” writes Reynouard, “no proof of the existence of any ˜torture chambers’ was ever discovered in the premises occupied by German police forces.”

Many accusations of violence made by witnesses at the trials are contradicted either by other witnesses or by the accused, and there is often reason to believe that it is the accusers who are lying.

Writes Reynouard:

“People tend to dismiss the exculpatory testimony of the defendants because they had an obvious motive to lie: to save their skins.

What they fail to take into account is that witnesses for the prosecution also had a strong motive to lie: hatred of the Germans”

The following quote from the “Georgia Gestapo” trial illustrates the almost hysterical, and clearly socially-approved German-hatred that was de rigueur at that time:

[The witness]. “ The death penalty, that is what you deserve, the whole gang of you here in court, including the women.

All traitors to France should be executed. . .

The guillotine is too good for you ¦

There are enough people in court to lynch you right here and now. [PGG, dossier 10, p. 29].

Instead of calling the witness to order, the President of the High Court ratcheted the German-hatred up a notch:

THE PRESIDENT. “They will never have suffered the torments of Buchenwald.” [Id.]

Reynouard comments:

“Who can believe that in such a climate these hate-filled witnesses would not have suffered from a tendency to ‘forget’ facts favorable to the defendants, either adding stuff to the accusations or lying in order to increase the responsibilities of the accused and thus obtain the death penalty they so wished to see inflicted?”

Of course, not all testimonies alleging violence by German police were lies or exaggerations.

Reasons why the Gestapo, towards the end, often used violence

At Nuremberg, the prosecution itself did not dispute the fact that the Resistance members could be sentenced to death and executed as illegal combatants.

What they criticized the Germans for was for “torturing” them. But the fact is that a dead illegal combatant is not much use when what one desperately needs is information — facts to prevent further attacks.

The Germans were faced with what tacticians call “asymmetrical warfare,” between a well-equipped regular army and guerilla groups whose great advantages were their invisibility in the greater population and their ability to strike at vulnerable points unexpectedly.

In fact, secrecy was so vital to their mission that Article 3 of Circular Letter no. 2 published by the Resistance declared:

Any person requesting admission into the Maquis de la Résistance will maintain the most absolute secrecy as to the situation of the hiding places, the identity of the leaders and his or her comrades. . .

Any violation of this prohibition will be punished by death.” [Source:P. Henriot, Et s’ils debarquaient? (Editions du Centre d’etudes de l’Agence Inter-France, 1943), p. 268].

Obviously, patriotic principles aside, captured Resistants would be unlikely to give information willingly to captors, with a death threat looming over their heads if they did so.

Hence the frequent need for strong measures by the Germans and their auxiliaries, who sought to get the maximum amount of information: names of accomplices and leaders, meeting places, weapons cache locations, forthcoming plans of action, etc.

Reynouard gives several examples of cases in which “enhanced interrogations” produced useful information, leading in one case, for example, to the decapitation of a Resistance network and in another to the location of a clandestine radio transmitter.

However, Reynouard makes the following five points about the Gestapo’s use of violence, supporting each with trial testimony:

— they did not resort to violence in minor affairs, and even in important cases violence was not always used.

— They used violence only when the detainee would not talk, and they warned suspects first that it would be better to talk.

— Lastly, those who talked were not harmed.

“Therefore,” writes Reynouard, “it is absolutely dishonest to attribute the violence suffered by Resistance members to ‘Nazi sadism.’ Most of the time, German agents did not act out of sadism; they acted to extract information required for the supreme struggle.”

The behavior of the Gestapo towards women and girls

Reynouard saves for last the subject of the treatment of women and girls at the hands of the Gestapo, “historical accounts” which have provided endless fodder for popular literature, from men’s pulp magazines to the popular Israeli “Stalag porn.”

As you might expect, the facts unearthed by Reynouard’s research are totally at odds with the popular image.

At Nuremberg, in his “Report on the German atrocities committed during the occupation,” Professor H. Paucot claimed that: “The women and young girls were almost always completely undressed out of pure sadism.” [doc. F-571, IMT XXXVII, 263]

“But this,” writes Reynouard, “is untrue. In the thousands of pages which I have read, there is no question of undressing, rape, or even improper gestures or touching.”

On the contrary, he quotes several testimonies from the French trials in which women explicitly state that they were treated “quite correctly.”

Typically lurid Jewish cartoon with a female prisoner and a Gestapo officer..Nazis torturing nordics, sure …..

Such tame and unimaginative testimony obviously did not serve the purpose of the Nuremberg Tribunal. There the French prosecution produced a lurid declaration by a certain Major Pierre Loranger. After “investigating” the acts of the German police services in France under the occupation, he wrote:

To the physical torments, the sadism of their torturers added the particularly painful moral torment for a woman or young girl of being undressed and stripped naked by her torturers.

The condition of pregnancy did not protect them from blows, and when the brutalities entailed the expulsion of the product of conception, they were left without care, exposed to all the accidents and complications of this criminal abortion.

“These accusations,” writes Reynouard, unsurprisingly, “are not confirmed by any testimony whatsoever.”

He presents the testimony of Gilberte Sindemans, a 22-year-old Resistance member. Arrested in Paris in February of 1944, a search of her hotel room had revealed a hoard of fake identification cards and materials for making them, and weapons — indicating that she was a major activist. She was handcuffed and taken for interrogation:

As I did not answer, they slapped me right across the face with such force that I fell off my chair. They whipped me with a rubber whip, right across the face. . . I had to tell them I was three months pregnant.”

Afterwards she was put in solitary confinement in harsh conditions and underwent 24 interrogations, with slaps and threats; when she still refused to talk, she was kept in solitary another six months.

Then, the day the prison was evacuated:

I was taken to the Fort de Romainville and from there to the hospital, where I had my little girl, on 25 August” [IMT, XXXVII, 299].

Reynouard’s comment:

“Of course, her story is quite regrettable.

But if one does not wish to be beaten and endanger the life of one’s baby, perhaps one should not participate in an illegal war; one should not steal official papers and stamps from the enemy; and one should not deal in weapons during a military occupation.”

Moreover, as he points out, the testimony is noteworthy for what it does not include: she was not undressed, and above all, she received no blows that harmed her baby or endangered her pregnancy.

In the end she gave birth to a little girl, apparently healthy.”

Finally Reynouard describes several cases in which Gestapo auxiliaries, looking for suspected Resistance members, found their wives at home instead.

In these cases the women were, of course, not stripped. Neither were they tortured, although in the case of one seven-months pregnant woman with a baby they slapped her and pulled her hair in an effort to extract information on the whereabouts of her husband.

Reynouard comments: “One must, of course, condemn the violence inflicted on this woman. But. . . they could have taken her baby and said, “Talk, or we’ll cut one ear off, then the other one, etc”. . .

They could have stripped the woman naked, placed her on her back, and told her: “Talk, or we’ll stomp on your stomach.”

But they didn’t. The woman refused to talk and, after searching the premises, they left. In one case they offered a woman 100,000 francs to reveal her husband’s whereabouts; in another they posed as members of the Resistance to try to get information and in yet another, the wife was simply given a phone number to call when her husband returned.

Reynouard’s final example is worth quoting at more length. He entitles it: “The surprising admission of a woman who was not mistreated either.”

It is the case of M. and Mme. Marceron, a married couple in the Resistance, who were concealing six cases of explosives in their home. They had been betrayed by a detained comrade, so when the agents arrived they knew what they ought to find. Not surprisingly, the couple denied everything:

My husband replied, smiling, that we obviously weren’t the kind of people who kept explosives around the house. I answered in the same vein, that I didn’t understand what they were talking about (PBL, 7, p. 52, deposition of Mme Marceron)].

The woman had her small child with her, aged two and a half. The agents, who had no time to waste, could have used either the child or the mother — or both — to force the husband to talk. (“Talk, or we’ll blow their brains out!”).

But they didn’t. After searching the house and finding nothing, they announced that they were taking the husband in for questioning (probably to confront him with the person who had betrayed him).

At trial, Mme Marceron recalled:

I asked them whether they would let him eat a little bit and get dressed. They agreed immediately. My husband then started to eat breakfast.

“These men, accompanied by the Germans, asked if they could eat breakfast with him, telling me they would pay. I said: “ If you want to eat, eat with my husband, just help yourselves” [PBL, 7, p. 53].

After eating breakfast they left with the suspect. A few hours later, M. Merceron returned and declared:

“They knew everything. Mme Mesclos told them everything.” (p. 57). He had to reveal the hiding place of the explosives. The Germans deported him to Germany, but they left the mother in liberty and never touched the child.”

At trial, moreover, Mme Marceron had the courage to end her deposition by declaring (before being interrupted by the President of the Tribunal):

I have nothing against the Germans. Of course, they’re our enemies; that’s obvious. A German defends his country, and we defend ours.” [PBL, 7, p. 62., XXX “Merceron confesses”]

Such was the behavior of the Gestapo towards the wives of Resistance members. This is very far from the image propagated by the “court historians” and their dupes.

Conclusion

“The Gestapo,” writes Reynouard, “was therefore an ordinary political police force responsible, first of all, for preventing and repressing actions hostile to the State.

Later, in the occupied territories, it had the mission of combating an illegal war. The excesses which it may have committed — and which it did commit — are not the consequence of ‘Nazi sadism,’ but, rather to be seen in the context in which it was compelled to act — a struggle of life and death.

*** The 1941 American bestseller by Jewish author Theodore Kaufman

Germany Must Perish! is a 104-page book written by Theodore N. Kaufman, which he self-published in 1941 in the United States. The book advocated the sterilization of all Germans and the territorial dismemberment of Germany, believing that this would achieve world peace. Kaufman founded the Argyle Press in Newark, New Jersey, United States, in order to publish this book. He was the sole proprietor of the Argyle Press, which is not known to have published any other works.

The Nazi Party used the book, written by a Jewish author, to support their argument that Jews were plotting against their country.^[2][3]

Kaufman advocated the forced sterilization of the German people and the territorial dismemberment of Germany after an Allied victory in World War II.^[4]

Kaufman summarized Germany Must Perish! in advertisements in The New York Times and New York Post as: “A dynamic volume outlining a plan for the extinction of Germany and containing a map showing possible dissection and apportionment of its territory.”^[5] Kaufman defended his plan for the “sterilization of all Germans” in an interview published in the September 26, 1941, issue of The Canadian Jewish Chronicle:^[6]

Map showing Kaufman’s proposed dismemberment of Germany (and Austria)

I believe that the Jews have a mission in life. They must see to it that the nations of the world get together in one vast federation. “Union Now” is the beginning of this. Slowly but surely the world will develop into a paradise. We will have perpetual peace. And the Jews will do the most to bring about this confederation, because they have the most to gain. But how can you get peace if Germany exists? The only way to win an eternal peace is to make the punishment of waging war more horrible than war itself. Human beings are penalized for murder, aren’t they? Well, Germany starts all the wars of magnitude. Let us sterilize all Germans and wars of world domination will come to an end!

The fault, then, lies not with Hitler, but with those who, in order to destroy his regime, unleashed a war of extermination in 1939. They were the true ‘barbarians.’

Adolf wrote about religions for jews and for Aryans, and remember what Stanley Kubrick said :

Due to his own original special nature, the Jew cannot possess a TRUE religious institution, if for no other reason because he lacks idealism in any form, and hence ANY belief in a hereafter is absolutely foreign to him.

And a religion in our Aryan sense cannot be imagined which lacks the conviction of survival after death in some form.

Indeed, the Talmud is not a book to prepare a man for the hereafter, but only for a practical and profitable life in this world. — Adolf Hitler (Mein Kampf)
