Heiko Maas wants to make a big splash as Germany's new foreign minister.
By Carolyn Yeager
STILL STUCK UNDER ANGELA MERKEL, GERMANY IS GOING FROM BAD TO WORSE. The only silver lining is that this new government is the weakest it's ever been. It may not last out the 3.5 years left to it.
The dearth of talent from which to form a cabinet is astonishing. The tired old faces have been pushed out (except for Merkel's), but the new ones are at best uninspiring. At worst, like with the the very slight and unimposing former justice minister Heiko Maas as the new Foreign Minister, it's hard not to laugh out loud. Where is the gravitas a foreign minister should have?
Maas is a solid leftist, a member of the SPD (Social Democratic Party), an outspoken enemy of populism and nationalism. He will toe the line of the Israel Lobby and of Germany's Jews. That's why he got the job in this time of anti-antisemitism laws being pushed in the West like never before. This has been the responsibility of the U.S. State Department up till now, but it has lately been less than enthusiastic about that burden. Maas may be expected to take up the slack.
He not only said in his inaugural speech today that Germany needed to take a stronger role – more responsibility in the world – he also said he would travel to Israel to mark the country's 70th anniversary of its founding, adding “Personally, the German-Israeli history isn't just one of historical responsibility, but it also represents a deep motivation in my political decision-making.”
”I didn't go into politics out of respect for Willy Brandt or the peace movement. I went into politics because of Auschwitz."
A true believer, we have here. As Justice Minister, he pushed through a new law against “hate speech” on social media sites. He is likely to do the same on the international stage in his new role as foreign minister. In his speech, he divided the world into “those who advocate for openness and tolerance, and those seeking a return to nationalism.”
Keep an eye on Heiko Maas – and not a friendly one.

What a Little Creep
Joey Virgo
Maas's photo reminded me, when I first saw it, immediately of Wally Cox from the old TV show, "Mister Peepers." Wikipedia says Maas is a triathlete and Wally Cox apparently had a strong physique, too, even though he looked like a milquetoast and a nerd on TV.
Maas's reference to Auschwitz is disgusting and toadying, but even worse, for me, is his contrast between nationalism as against openness and tolerance. He just proves with that idea quite the opposite -- how intolerant and closed off he really is. To me, Maas's language is like those Jews now labeling people anti-Semites who call other Jews "globalists." The language itself proves that these Jews are indeed globalists and are in full control of the language in the media. With Maas's language, he is showing the listener his utter intolerance for any other point of view than his own.
Another person that Maas resembles is a younger version of that weasel named Herman Van Rompuy, the (former?) President of the European Council.
In the name of the tolerance,

In the name of the tolerance, the TRUE INTOLERANTS labels the other as intolerants, a clear case of orwellian doublespeak. What a disaster is this Merkel, so bad that Germany hasn't limited reelections...
The Big Lie
Al Milligan
As I read this column I was reminded of Herr Adolf Hitler's writing about the big lie. This guy has bought into the Big Lie of the holocaust and diseminates hatred and racism.
Here is what I recently wrote concerning this lie which is used quite a few times in a new book by Jordan Peterson, 12 Rules for Life: Peterson's book is one of the great psychological analysis of our times. Having said that, Dr. Peterson tends to scapegoat Adolph Hitler a lot. He has obviously bought into the Big Lie of Zionist Russian and the Marxists about Hitler. He quotes Hitler's Mein Kampf out of context and gives it an exact opposit meaning, p. 227. Here, Hilter is actually criticising the Big Lie fostered by Marxists and their Zionists supporters. In this passage, it seems that Hitler is saying the same thing as Peterson, tell the truth, seek the truth. Hitler was fighting communism from the beginning and we helped the communists defeat him. Here is the quote in its entirerty:
But it remained for the Jews, with their unqualified capacity for falsehood, and theirfighting comrades, the Marxists, to impute responsibility for the downfall precisely tothe man who alone had shown a superhuman will and energy in his effort to preventthe catastrophe which he had foreseen and to save the nation from that hour ofcomplete overthrow and shame. By placing responsibility for the loss of the world waron the shoulders of Ludendorff they took away the weapon of moral right from theonly adversary dangerous enough to be likely to succeed in bringing the betrayers ofthe Fatherland to Justice. All this was inspired by the principle--which is quite true initself--that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broadmasses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of theiremotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity oftheir minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since theythemselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to largescalefalsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths,and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth soinfamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly totheir minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may besome other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it,even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this worldand to all who conspire together in the art of lying. These people know only too well how to use falsehood for the basest purposes.
Thank you for your courage and continued good work, Carolyn.
My take on Maas
carolyn
The key thing about him is that he turns against authentic German people in favor of foreigners and immigrants. He uses "Auschwitz", the lie, as an excuse to hate Germans.
Maas wants Germany to be a country like the United States, where the rule of law (not blood) is supreme. Anyone can become a citizen. This idea is being pushed hard all over Europe now more than ever. Germans were for a long time reluctant to join in, but in Merkel's long-lasting term in office any resistance she seemed to have disappeared. The only hope is the Alternative fuer Deutschland party and it is being heavily targeted now. The other parties are looking for criminal complaints against the AfD members, anything to charge them with something. Merkel herself is saying she wants to get them out of the Bundestag [totally undemocratic!], and the Jews are beside themselves with hatred for every member.
Maas will be selling out Germany to the Internationalist idea and Jewish Supremacism wherever he goes around the world. Pray for the strength and growth of the AfD.

The Czechs don't like this site either. This came in response to the Maas post. -Carolyn

Hi Carolyn this is ____ in prague.I tried to get to your site in a mac. Lo and behold what came up was this is a malware ... something about being dangerous and can't access.
It happened to me in st John's nf canada when I tried to access some site over there in one of the coffee shops.
It seems to be a normal procedure in 'some' countries.
I happened to visit my home town after many yrs away. I happened to be walking in the snow and dropped into a mall for a break. I came upon a book store called Coles within the mall. I told the young lady that there used to be a list of books you are not supposed to read.She looked at me and said here we r not supposed to sell certain books. I then ask what might those books be, to which she replied pronto, anti semitic books. I then asked who owns this book store.
She said Heather Reisman. I asked she must be jewish then. oh yes she is.
The next day I went to another book store though larger and more accomodating but possessing another name.When I asked the gentleman there who owned the store he promptly said H R.
Then I found that this lady owns Indigo book stores right across canada. I said to myself either she's a plant, a gate keeper or she really innocently likes selling books which I doubt very much.
My tale ends here, Carolyn.
Yourz truly.
Ps. they are really torturing Matt Hale and his brave mother.
