Translated by Shoahbloger

Translation of a secret speech for Gauleiters (district leaders of NSDAP) held 2 weeks after the assassination attempt on Hitler by Stauffenberg. Himmler talks about the treacherous and defeatist attitudes activities in the leadership of the Wehrmacht before and during the War,  about the conspiracy to kill Hitler and take power in Germany, and the consequences of the 20th of July. A copy of this speech was deposited by Martin Bormann in the Central Archive of NSDAP and today it is at the Institut for Zeitgeschichte in Munich. It was published in Vierteljahrshefte für Zeitgeschichte in 1953.

Thanks to the great friend of WWII and Holocaust Revisionism, SHOAHBLOGER, we are gaining more insight into the high-level war-time treason Adolf Hitler had to deal with and into Heinrich Himmler himself.

The speech is described as "The first ever English language translation of a secret speech for Gauleiters held two weeks after the assassination attempt on Hitler by Stauffenberg. 

Himmler talks about the treacherous and defeatist attitudes and  activities in the leadership of the Wehrmacht before and during the War, as well as about the conspiracy to kill Hitler and take power in Germany.

A copy of this speech was deposited by Martin Bormann in the Central Archive of the NSDAP and today it is at the Institut für Zeitgeschichte in Munich. It was published in Vierteljahrshefte für Zeitgeschicthe in 1953."

Parts 1, 2 and 3 have been posted so far on Shoahbloger's site. Don't miss it, as it is fascinating and eye-opening. When all the parts have been posted, I will copy it here at carolynyeager.net as part of my "important speeches" section I'm going to create, and also write a commentary about it.

Many thanks to Shoahbloger for doing the important work he does ... for free! Real truth-seekers are not in it for money or to advance their careers, but to share truth as widely as possible.

Carolyn looks at two items that arose in the news this past week that illustrate the continuing inabllity of Germans to assert their rights to respect and equal treatment 70 years after the war.

One is a new book on the rape of German women by U.S. troops during and after WWII; the other is the bullying of the German Federation of Expellees by the Polish and Czech governments into giving up all claims of compensation for the loss of their supposedly universal “right of return.”

She ends on a note of discouragement as to the likelihood of a future world that she would want to live in.

Old Pforzheim church and market square with monument of Bismarck.

On February 23, 1945, the Royal Air Force attacked the mid-size city of Pforzheim in Baden, in southwestern Germany, for the last time--the previous times being six night raids in Oct. 1944 and one in November. They didn't need to do it again because this attack by 378 aircraft, all but 10 of them heavy bombers, dropped 730 tons of explosives and 820 tons of incendiary bombs and set off the intended firestorm that consumed every building of the town center.

Nearly sixty thousand people were in the town that night. 17,600 of them - one out of three Pforzheimers - were officialy counted as dead and thousands were injured.

The post-war British Bombing Survey Unit boasted that the bombing destruction of Pforzheim was "probably the greatest proportion [percentage] in one raid during the war.” It was considered a complete and resounding success at the time. Yet even after such a complete success by the British, the US Air Force on March 4th bombed the area around the Kupferhammer (main hotel and square), the pilots flying low and opening fire on crowds of civilian survivors, murdering 100 or more. They didn't get around to bombing the railway facilities and destroying the autobahn until March 14, 16, 18, 20 and 24th.

Adolf Hitler's view on race and the German Volk in his talk to Officers of May 1944 has been misrepresented by Veronica Clark in two books that she has sold on Amazon. Carolyn discusses the most interesting parts of the talk and points out the mistakes in Clark's translation:

• Changing the word Volk to Rasse, or race, in one instance where it could not be an honest error (on page 48 of the German copy, shown at right - click on image for enlarged view);
• Other inexplicably poor translation seemingly designed to detract from Hitler's strict attitude on race;
• Attributing to Adolf Hitler in her foreward a false quote that she knew was actually written by another man, Otto Wagener;
• Hadding Scott comes on the line in the last 15-20 minutes and confirms the correctness of Porter's translation over Clark's in some specific instances.
