An alert reader, alecti, discovered an article in the Berliner Morgenpost dated January 13, 2014 about the Welfenschatz (Guelph Treasure) lawsuit brought by twe Jews, Gerald Stiebel and Alan Philipp, against the German government. The article is titled "Who really owns the Guelf Treasure?"

Translating the article using Google Translate is far from perfect, but does give some clear ideas that I will use in this post. Anyone out there who can provide me with a better translation into English - please feel free to do so!

First, the dispute is officially between two heirs of the original  Jewish art dealers and the SPK, the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation, which oversees the museums in Berlin. The collection of medieval reliquaries, alters, and crucifixes was kept for centuries in Prussia's Brunswick Cathedral. In the 17th century, approximately 80 items were removed from the cathedral by John Frederick, Duke of Brunswick-Luneburg.

80 years ago, in 1935, some Jewish art dealers in Berlin sold a collection of medieval Christian relics, known as the Welfenschatz treasure, to one or more National Socialists “after they were unable to get a better offer.” The collection consists of dozens of gold and bejeweled relics that date to the Holy Roman Empire.

History of the collection according to Wikipedia

"We are Europe's bankrupt child and as a child, Europe has been supporting us for five years and told us what we needed to do to get out of this situation. We did nothing and now we are paying the consequences."

Warren B. Routledge returns to The Heretics' Hour to tell us more about his magnificent exposé, Holocaust High Priest: Elie Wiesel, Night, the Memory Cult, and the Rise of Revisionism [pictured right, enlarge]. In this fascinating program, he delves into Wiesel's "friendships" with Catholic bishops, cardinals and popes.

Elie Wiesel, as an Hasidic Orthodox Jew, was brought up to hate and fear all Christian churches, yet he formed influential relationships with a number of Catholic leaders. Wiesel and his fellow Jews' campaign against the canonization of Pius XII, their abuse of New York City's Archbishop John Cardinal O'Conner, the syncophancy of his successor Cardinal Dolan, and John Paul II's Pontifical Commissions are all discussed. Finally, the current Pope Francis' extreme philo-semitism, and how he got elected, is brought out.

Mr. Routledge's expertise with his subject matter makes his second appearance on The Heretics' Hour one you won't want to miss. 1h24m

Modern Greece is a fairly new experiment in independence, and as such has never actually functioned totally independently. The world expects too much from Greeks, confusing them with the ancient Athenian democracy that we learn about in school. The Greeks are also confused about this, since they encourage this comparison with those great Greek citizens of old … a comparison they cannot live up to.

First Greece was incorporated into the Roman Empire, followed by the Byzantine, and then for 300 years Greeks were subsumed into the Ottoman Empire ruled by Muslim Turks. Their modern state was formed only in 1830 with the help of the European Powers who helped the Greeks win their war of independence.

Carolyn reads chapters 7 and 8, having to do with how Bureau investigations were used by the German government and by the Wehrmacht.

Chapt. 7 talks about White Books and White Papers which were put out by the German Foreign Office. One unexpected and disappointing development was that when photographs of the atrocities committed on Germans in Poland were published in the White Books, there was such an outcry over the "horror pictures" that Germany stopped adding those images. Naturally, since the Germans didn't commit mutilations on their enemies, the other side didn't have such pictures to print. 

Chapt. 8 is about the use of Bureau investigations for "Diplomatic Protection" for prisoners of war, the wounded, medical personnel, etc. A number of examples of protests are given, on both the West and East Fronts (South too). Something I did not know: "thousands of German POW's had already been liquidated by Soviet forces in the first weeks of fighting." 47m28s

Democracy wins!

The childish Greeks who are cheering "victory for democracy" in Athen's Syntagma square tonight don't yet realize that Greece has lost ... or is lost. Greece came into the Eurogroup in 2001 in a weakened state and has been on the receiving end ever since. Yet they are portraying themselves as victims of a system that they forced their way into, thinking only of the benefits to be gained at the outset. When the time inevitably comes to stand up as a responsible partner, Greeks are not up to that and they turn to the communist promises every time. I am very happy, though, about the "No" vote. It's a prayer answered.

The news is still breaking but following are some of the first comments made by responsible Eurozone members and EU national leaders:

German Vice-Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel, leader of Merkel's centre-left Social Democratic junior coalition partner, said it was hard to conceive of fresh negotiations on lending more billions to Athens after Greeks voted against more austerity.

From Business Insider: Mike Bird got this photo of the inside of one of Syriza's offices in Athens, in Exarcheia. Apparently quite recently.

That's Lenin, Engels, and Che Guevara on the wall. 

Is that Marxist enough for you? Naturally they love to make Germany the fall-guy.

Here are the pages from the Platterhof manuscript that Veronica Clark considers "the race section." She wrote, in her tirade against me:

I have this entire race section of Hitler's speech IN GERMAN, for anyone to cross-check, in Black Nazi's (2009), Black Nazi's II (2010), and Black Nazi's II (2012). It's high time for this venomous viper to cease  with her endless string of lies.

Without making you buy anything, I, Carolyn, am providing this section IN GERMAN, so you can read, cross-check, share or do anything you like with it. These pages, beginning with page 26 [click on each image to enlarge], correspond to the section in English (Carlos Porter translation) that follows after them.

In this comment, Veronica Clark lies about what she has said and written about her book Hitler & Himmler - Uncensored, which includes Hitler's 1944 Platterhof address to officers. She recently removed what she had written about this book on Amazon, probably after hearing my Heretics' Hour program of Feb. 16th in which I used what she had put on that Amazon page. She refers to that here. She also reduced the amount of material that could be read gratis from the book.
