Packard Plant Tagged with Nazi Slogan

Published by carolyn on Wed, 2013-02-13 18:39

DETROIT (CBS Detroit) Is it art meant to highlight a decaying industrial complex in a dying city or a chilling threat?

The phrase “Arbeit Macht Frei,” which famously greeted Nazi prisoners at the Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II, has a new home.

It sits prominently on a bridge overlooking the Packard Plant in Detroit. The words are in the same script as the labor camp, but in this case they lord over the hulking plant that once created luxury cars and now serves as a decrepit 40-acre squatting grounds for the homeless, and a favorite spot for scrappers, graffiti artists and ruin porn photography.

The factory that built luxury Packard cars at the start of the 20th Century, closed in 1958. The city of Detroit has pledged to take the plant down, but that hasn’t happened yet.

The German words now prominently displayed on it translate into English as “work will make you free,” and they guarded the gates at the (Auschwitz) camp.

“Each letter is fashioned on a durable piece of plastic that is strongly secured to the overpass with about 80 sturdy ties,” according to DeadlineDetroit.com.

Steve Goldman of the Holocaust Memorial Center (naturally they ask him Wink) finds it offensive and thinks it should be removed, even if it is an artistic statement on labor issues, as some believe.

“In a month, when we’re celebrating the freedom of African-Americans — of all Americans from the scourge of slavery — this hearkening back to slave labor in Nazi Germany … it’s just so offensive I almost don’t have words,” Goldman said. Oy vey.

So, what do you think: Should the city take it down?
Thank you for voting!
No, it's a piece of art  51.16%  
Yes, it's threatening  48.84%

Threatening, you say? What is it threatening? The words mean "Work Makes You Free." To Germans, work was a necessity for a feeling of accomplishment, it was not thought to be a bad punishment. The meaning of the words on the gate at Auschwitz was that, by working, the people brought there would gain a greater sense of collective purpose, and could then be returned to society as more productive and constructive citizens.

Nothing threatening at all.

Dresden Anniversary March Co-opted by City Politicos

Published by carolyn on Tue, 2013-02-12 18:17

Nationalist marchers hemmed in by police in Dresden Germany, Feb. 12, 2013.

By Carolyn Yeager

Up to 2,000 nationalists and patriots from around Germany (far fewer than in previous years) gathered in Dresden today for their traditional silent torchlight march in memory of their murdered countrymen in the Feb. 1945 firebombing of the city by British and American air forces.

But the city was ready for them, ready, that is, to deny them the right to do what others of a different political persuasion are allowed to do. Nearly 6,000 police officers had been sent to Dresden, ostensibly to protect their march, but in reality to enforce the wishes of the Dresden city officials who this year decided to upstage the nationalist march with a demonstration of their own.

More than 10,000 people (according to the news) formed a human chain to prevent the nationalists from marching.


City wants emphasis on reconciliation

Ten thousand candles were provided by the city to the counter-demonstrators to be lit in front of the landmark Frauenkirche. This beloved old church was destroyed in the bombing and only rebuilt in recent years. The candles were arranged in front of the church to form a "candle of reconciliation."

Yet in London last year, Queen Elizabeth herself "cut the ribbon" on a large monument recognizing the "brave" British pilots who carried out the bombing on Dresden! No talk of reconciliation there.

Police cordoned off the nationalists - who are always called Neo-Nazis and extremists by everyone, even the Press - while the counter-demonstrators banged drums and shouted "Out with Nazis!" Is it any wonder that fewer marchers showed up this year when it is such a completely depressing experience?   

Commercial interests outweigh the truth of history

At a memorial service earlier in the day, Jewish leaders and church representatives mostly spoke against far-right extremism. Disgustingly, representatives from the UK and US were also in attendance, but not in penitence - no doubt quite self-righteously. There has never been even a hint of an apology from those nations - Germans are still doing all the apologizing. In fact, the city of Dresden calls it's event a commemoration for past war-time bombing victims in Dresden, England's Coventry and Japan's Hiroshima! God forbid that German suffering should stand out.

It does seem that the only thing post-unification Dresden wants to say to the world is "We don't want far-right extremism." Sure, and we know why - it hurts tourism, which is Dresden's number one industry.

It's painful to recognize that this is their only response to the devastating, sadistic two-day roasting of German women and children, both city residents and refugees, in 1945. The death toll is officially declared always to be 'up to 25,000' when, at the time following the bombing, it was widely known and stated to be over 100,000.  It sickens me too much to say anymore about it except Armes Deutschland.

Feb. 11, 2013

Andrew Anglin of Total Fascism answers questions about his written and spoken record of not so long ago that is seemingly very different from what he advocates today. He explains the progression from an anti-technology primitivism to authoritarian state government, and how his world-view has really not changed that much. Among topics covered:

  • With the present corporate system, technology can go out of control;
  • Free choice does not exist in reality;
  • Christianity – weak or strong? It all depends on how it’s presented;
  • How would Odinism be presented to the people and can it be;
  • Catholic caller thinks all anti-Christians are crypto-Jews;
  • Materialism is the bad – more spirituality the good;
  • What to do about the American Negro;
  • Pros and cons of Vegetarianism, with  surprising passion in its favor;
  • Hitler’s cooks, “food-tasters” and doctors;
  • The health benefits of a high protein/fat and low-carb diet is widely recognized.

Callers Mike Delaney and Bill from Ohio added to the program.

The Amazing Operation Cerberus - February 11-13, 1942

Published by carolyn on Sat, 2013-02-09 18:58

This Monday, Feb. 11th marks the 71st anniversary of the German navy's successful Channel Dash from Brest Harbor in France to Wilhelmshaven. It was codenamed Operation Cerberus - the Roman name for the three-headed dog that guards the gates of the underworld, Hades.

Background: In 1941, with radar in its early stages, the giant ships could still operate in the open oceans and the German battleships were doing great damage to Allied shipping in the Atlantic. Twenty-two British merchant ships had been sunk by March of '41. This was not sustainable for the English and the battle of the Atlantic was under way.

After the German battleship “Bismarck” was sunk in May 1941, the rest of the fleet found refuge in the harbor at Brest, France. The RAF tried for months to destroy the German ships but they were well-protected by anti-aircraft. Finally, Hitler gave the order to bring the ships “Scharnhorst,” “Gneisenau” and “Prinz Eugen” back by the Channel route between England and France. The German Naval Commanders could not understand Hitler’s order – they had mostly been against that plan, but Hitler was right. The operation was successful.

Photo taken by Lt. Leopold Wenger of the battleship Scharnhorst in Brest harbor with its camoflage netting,

The operation itself: The convoy, which included six destroyers, left Brest harbour at 22.45 hours on February 11, 1942, shortly after Britain's submarine “Sea Lion” ended its watch. Faulty radar in the British spotter planes combined with cloud cover to prevent the convoy from being discovered. By dawn on February 12th, the convoy was sailing off Barfleur, south of the Isle of Wight, in fog conditions. At Dover, the gun batteries based there engaged the Germans but their shells fell short. Torpedo-carrying Swordfish planes also failed; all six planes were lost in the attack thanks to the ferocious German fighters. More attacks were not successful, due partly to faulty communications at the RAF. One of the pilots flying a Spitfire was Canadian Barry Needham. At dawn on February 13th, the German convoy sailed into the port of Wilhelmshafen with a loss of just one of their minor escort ships and seventeen fighter planes.

This German “Channel Dash” remains the only occasion since the Spanish Armada in 1588 that ships belonging to an enemy of Great Britain have successfully traversed the English Channel. It was considered a disgrace for the British Admiralty that the German ships crossed in front of their eyes very near to the  south coast of England.

Lieutenant Leopold Wenger, [right] was one of the pilots of the “Jagdeschwader Richthofen” whose mission it was to escort and protect these very precious, giant battleships. The pilots were not allowed to use their radios; if they discovered any danger – for example, a British aircraft approaching – they could warn their wingman only by a short gun-shot in his direction. For Wenger and the other pilots of his unit, their mission was completed on Feb. 13 when the ships arrived at The Netherlands. They landed at Leeuwarden to fuel up and return to their airfield in France. Other German fighters from another unit took over the duty of escorting the armada to safe harbors.

Thanks to Willy Wenger of Austria for telling me of this anniversary and supplying the information about his older brother, Leopold, who, to his family, was always called “Bibi.” Leopold Wenger, a recipient of Germany's highest decoration, the Knights Cross, was shot down over Vienna in April 1945 at age 23.

Feb. 9, 2013

The Golden Dawn party in Greece is presently the primary interest for Alex Linder of VNN Forum. Our conversation started and ended with it, but in between he also talked about Anders Breivik, the gun control legislation Obama is trying to pass, and infighting in the “movement” – how it should and shouldn’t be done. Some of the points made:

  • Why a nationalist party could gain success in Greece, but not elsewhere in Europe or the U.S.;
  • Only young men will carry out a revolutionary movement;
  • Must say clearly that “we are White and want what is good for Whites;
  • Begin organizing from national conditions or on a state or regional basis?;
  • How much individualism can be tolerated in a political party manifesto;
  • Sandy Hook and Gun Controlplanned or accidental;
  • Alex’s thread on Strategy.

An email from Paul and a phone call from Stuart added to the show. Missed an email from Stuart telling me the militias are alive and well, see here. Sorry about the abrupt closing – my fault.

"The International Jew" Study Hour - Episode 33

Feb. 7, 2013

Carolyn Yeager and Hadding Scott read and comment on Chapter 27 Jewish Control of the American Theater.

The theater has long been a part of the Jewish program. Along with the Press, it is one of the two great means of molding popular opinion. Not only the “legitimate” stage, so-called, but the motion picture industry—the fifth greatest of all the great industries in 1920—is also entirely Jew-controlled, with the natural consequence that now the world is in arms against it’s trivializing and demoralizing influences.  It is the genius of the Jewish race to create problems of a moral character in whatever business they achieve a majority. This chapter tells about the beginnings of the Theatrical Trust, which helped to drive non-Jews out of the business.

Image at right: The advertisement for the 1925 film version of Ben-Hur, favored by Jewish producers apparently because it holds before the public a romantic picture of a Jew – even though a very un-Jewish Jew. But we see how the advertisement is sexualized, a trend that grew under Jewish influence.

Two New Posts at "Elie Wiesel Cons The World"

Cover of survivor’s book features Buchenwald Lie-beration photo without standing man.

By Carolyn Yeager

Once again, a helpful commenter on this website has brought us an important discovery. Thanks to Attila Kovacs, I looked up Mel Mermelstein‘s 1979 “survivor memoir” titled By Bread Alone: The Story of A-4685 and discovered just what Kovacs reported — that the Famous Buchenwald Liberation Photo that is on the cover of the book (with Mel’s face circled in red) does not contain the tall standing man. In Kovacs’ words: “What is not shown on the cover photo is the tall man standing on the right leaning on the post. The post is there, but why then not the man standing?” Good question.

I’m sorry I cannot offer a larger image of the book. The best I could find was at Amazon.com (shown right) but you can clearly see the post on the right edge of the picture, with no one standing beside it – just dark, empty space.  Kovacs continues, “On page 208 of the book, the same photo is reproduced, but magically the tall standing man is included in this photo. What the heck is going on?”

What seems to be going on can be explained this way:  Elie Wiesel was not identified in that photograph until the 1980′s.  As I have written elsewhere, it was a decision made to increase Wiesel’s chances for a Nobel Prize. He wanted one, and his supporters began in 1983 to lobby the Nobel committee and plant news stories that he was being considered for either the Peace Prize or the Literature Prize. In 1986, the Peace Prize was awarded to him. The first thing he did as follow-up was to travel to Yad Vashem holocaust memorial in Israel to express his appreciation and get photographed in front of a wall-size blow-up of that famous picture.

Elie Wiesel leads the Democrats’ cry for universal gun control.

By Carolyn Yeager

 

Elie Wiesel at the United Nations in January 2005. This is the photo accompanying his gun control comments in the New York Daily News.  If he looked this bad then, what does he look like now, 8 years later. Is that why we don’t see him any more?

If Massacre of 20 children in Newtown doesn’t bring gun control, what will? by Elie Wiesel

So reads the headline in the New York Daily News on Dec. 17, 2012 – just three days after the Sandy Hook, CT,  shooting event. Okay, I’m pretty late in commenting on this Elie Wiesel story but I just now happened upon it.  The Daily News is as Jewish as it gets for a “mainstream” paper and we know (or can see) that removing American’s constitutional gun rights is part of the Jewish agenda that it is promoting.

We can see that the Jewish Mafia that runs this country put their big gun Elie Wiesel on it from the get-go. Even though Wiesel’s byline is attached to this story (he’s a journalist, remember), I suspect the words have been partially scripted for him and he just adds  his own flavor and style to them. The news story reads (my comments in blue):

Disbelief, horror, revolt: This is what we all felt when the news arrived. By its magnitude and cruelty, it surpassed everything else. We were not ready for it. Earlier tragedies should have immunized us. But they didn’t. Not to this violence, to this bloodshed. Oy vey, The Children!

A young man assassinates his mother with her own weapons. Then, he goes to an elementary school and murders 20 children, one after the other, firing more and more bullets into their small bodies.  Just three days after the event, he is sure of this. The story was prepared ahead of time, and was given out almost one hour after the deed supposedly occurred. Wiesel, of course, doesn’t question any of it.

Vienna's annual Fraternity Ball brings out commie-antifa street thugs once again

Published by carolyn on Tue, 2013-02-05 07:38

On February 1st in Vienna, the traditional Fraternity Ball again took place at the beautiful and historic Hofburg Palace. In order to get permission to hold the event in the great palace, the organizers had to change the name from Fraternity to the Akademikerball (the Academics Ball). The old and honorable fraternities of Austria have come under increasing attack because they are considered nationalistic and aligned with the national-conservative FPÖ, Freedom Party. (Representatives are lined up below)


The ugly, intolerant "anti-facists" and "anti-racists" (below) want to destroy every last vestige of nationalist thought in Europe, and unfortunately the current is on their side. The leftists went on something of a manhunt against the guests. They chased these totally normal people, going about their innocent, personal business, through the streets of Vienna, screamed at them, threw bottles at them and even spat into their faces while the police who were standing directly beside them did nothing.

See here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ottgj3KMUBk


What is the cost to peaceful Vienna people to have this destructive element gather in the thousands in the streets and plazas (above in front of the Hofburg on Feb. 1st) to interfere with lawful activities of those they politically oppose? Even though it is insanity it occurs because the higher police leadership, time and again, gives these left-wing radicals a free hand and allows patriots to be their fair game.

See another video here. And this article "Slugfest at Academics Ball" here.

Coming up on February 13-15 is the anniversary of the bombing of Dresden. From a long-time correspondent in Germany:

The same procedure as every year. Nationalists want to march calmly and want to remember the victims; leftists will again scream and whistle at them and blockade their marching route. The established politicians again support the leftists and the police have to.
The police president of Dresden has already indicated that he will infringe the police neutrality by announcing: "We don't fight for Nazis."

Nationalist = Nazi in Globalist-ruled Germany.

Feb. 4, 2013

Andrew Anglin, known as Andre on his website Total Fascism, tells us why he thinks Fascism, and many of the policies instituted by Adolf Hitler’s National Socialist regime,  is the answer to our fast-degenerating society. Among the topics discussed:

  • Need to put attention on solutions, rather than endless talking on the Internet;
  • Leaderless revolution vs an organized political party program;
  • Libertarianism as a Jewish invention;
  • Why “ruthless” strength is preferable to weak or half-way measures in dealing with the masses;
  • Discussion of feminism and “women’s rights” from the male and female perspective;
  • The reasons that obesity, homosexuality and pornography should be outlawed;
  • Why we don’t need competing political parties.

Thanks to callers Stuart, Aservant and Don for adding to the program.

Hi Carolyn:

I got a link to one of your podcasts today and noted your comments
