Saturday Afternoon with Carolyn: The Deeper Meaning of Nuremberg

Maurice Bardeche's intellectually and morally courageous report on France's participation in the 1945-46 proceedings of the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg has been translated into many languages.

Carolyn discusses the first "holocaust" revisionist book to appear, Nuremberg or the Promised Land (1948) by Maurice Bardeche, which brilliantly foresaw the "New World Order" of the Allied victors to be based on Universal Humanism as the ruling spirit everywhere. This spirit is anti-Nationalist to the core and Bardeche was called a Fascist in his day. Time: 2h20min. Some highlights:

  • Nuremberg is the source of "The Religion of Humanity," "The Conscience of Humanity" and "The Human Person";
  • The Crimes Against Peace indictment was based on documents such as the Hossbach Note and the Schmundt File, which are open to interpretation;
  • The French delegation should have concerned itself only with what people of France experienced, not what took place in concentration camps in Poland;
  • International Law is a scam invented by Jews, used to destroy Fatherlands;
  • Under the Führer Prinzip, which was ignored at Nuremberg, Adolf Hitler was responsible for every order he gave, not the person who carried it out, and he accepted this responsibility;
  • French President Francois Hollande is a product of Nuremberg, stating on Friday that his raison d'etre is to serve "the weakest, the most humble, the poorest" ... these being examples of "The Human Person".

Manfred Roeder (b1929), known as "the German Ghandi" for devoting his life to serving German independence, dressed here iin "Volk" fashion in Austria.

Carolyn Yeager looks at two outstanding Germans named Manfred Roeder: the military judge who prosecuted the "Red Orchestra" traitors in 1942-43, and the patriotic activist called the Federal Republic's "most dangerous and notorious critic" who died on July 30th at age 85.

She also tells of a German historian's revisionist conclusions refuting the Belgian version of the famous Louvain massacre by German troops in August 1914. Highlights include:

  • Prof. Ulrich Keller says German troops faced sniper fire from Belgian partisans (francs-tireurs) in the city of Louvain in WW1, and the evidence is found in 150 sworn statements from investigations and court records;
  • The younger Manfred Roeder fought in the Battle of Berlin at age 15-16, and continued the battle for a true constitutional Germany free of US/Jewish domination for the rest of his life;
  • Roeder was sentenced to prison twice (for 13 yrs and 2.5 yrs) for arson attacks and Volksverhetzung - incitement to hatred and insult;
  • The death sentences sought and gained by Roeder the military jurist were all upheld on appeal after the war as being conducted in accordance with the law;
  • The older Roeder was fully accepted in German society postwar, being an active member of the CDU, even though he had served and been admired by Hitler and Goering.

At right, Manfred Roeder (b1900), Generalrichter, in Luftwaffe uniform. His age and the date of the picture is unknown.

The Korherr Report

Published by carolyn on Tue, 2014-08-19 12:22

This is a translation of the Korherr Report in full posted by "Roberto" at the Axis History Forum. You can check it against the German original, which is also linked to. I have highlighted the parts most under discussion/debate in blue. ~CY

Post Number:#1  Postby Roberto on 18 Mar 2002, 19:44

A document often referred to on this forum, the Korherr Report should, in my opinion, be available online for consultation by all interested readers.

The report was prepared in two versions, a “long version” for Himmler and a “short version” for the Führer himself. The original German wording of both versions is transcribed under the following links:

"The Führer's Word"

Photograph: The Führer's Word

Photographer unknown (German). "The Führer’s Word," 12-Uhr-Blatt, October 9, 1941. The caption below these images of Soviet prisoners of war reads, "We are fighting against an enemy that – and I have to say it here – consists not of human beings, but of animals and beasts!"

Such photographs – often featuring three figures, as in TASS 60 – appeared in the daily and weekly German press accompanied by captions that further underscored the inferiority of people with Asiatic, Semitic, and Slavic features.

Carolyn Yeager describes the speeches and comments by the current leaders of the countries that participated in World War 1:  Britain, Belgium, France, Russia and Germany/Austria. In the second hour, a report from Paul Hickman on the Ehrenmarsch for the victims of Bad Nenndorf in Germany and more on Adolf Hitler's Platterhof speech. Some highlights:

  • British Prime Minister David Cameron takes the prize for continuing to argue that a "great moral cause" was being fought for in the Great War;
  • Vladimir Putin also finds it impossible to find any fault with Russia in starting that war;
  • Reports show that armed troops of both France and Russia crossed the border into Germany on August 2, the day before Wilhelm II declared war on France;
  • NPD organizers of the Bad Nenndorf Memorial March want a plaque at the site to commemorate the Germans tortured there by the British;
  • Veronica Clark's comments at The White Network reveal her changing story and questionable sources;
  • An examination of the entire Platterhof speech shows that the racial question makes up only 1/12 of the content and contributes to the larger discussion of building up a stronger German Folk.

Will Putin follow Stalin's Katyn strategy on the airline shoot-down?

In dealing with the tragedy of the downed Malaysian airliner MH17, the leader of the Russian Federation, President Vladimir Putin is behaving more and more like a throwback to Josef Stalin and his cover-up of the Katyn massacre. It was Stalin who approved the murder of thousands of Polish nationals in 1940, including military officers, dumping their bodies in mass graves hidden from view in the Katyn Forest near Smolensk, Russia.

If the Wehrmacht had not invaded Russia in Operation Barbarossa in June 1941, the evidence of this massacre would never have been found. Here is a recount of how the crime was discovered, taken from Wikipedia:

The government of National-Socialist Germany announced the discovery of mass graves in the Katyn Forest in 1943. When the London-based  Polish government-in-exile asked for an investigation by the International Red Cross, Stalin immediately severed diplomatic relations with it. The Soviet Union claimed the victims had been murdered by the Nazis, and continued to deny responsibility for the massacres until 1990, when it officially acknowledged and condemned the perpetration of the killings by the NKVD, as well as the subsequent cover-up by the Soviet government.
