From whence comes the intense historical attacks on “the German people,” and why? Is it purely because of economic competition, or is there another level involved? Retired professor Andreas Wesserle talks about the genocidal residential bombing of Germany planned out by Winston Churchill and his "scientific advisor" Dr. F. Lindemann (Lord Cherwell), whom also went after thousands of irreplaceable cultural-historical landmarks in some of the oldest German cities. Some highlights of the discussion:
- The British Mosquito 2-engine fighter-bomber had the capacity to fly all the way to Germany and back, and outfly all German fighters at the time – thus the heavy bombers were not needed;
- Erich Kern in the Swiss newspaper Die Tat in 1955 put the number of German civilian dead due to air attacks at 2 million, 5 thousand.
- Initially, the Americans were only bombing legitimate war targets, like the Messerschmitt factory outside of Regensburg in 1943, but later also became genocidal;
- The fate of the Eastern Jews: some came West, a million more in the Soviet east were dispatched by Stalin to Siberia;
- The “Sophie Scholl fable” similar to the Anne Frank romantic stories;
- Hans Scholl and the half-Russian Alexander Schmorell wrote pamphlets under the banner of the White Rose Society with text suspiciously similar to Soviet propaganda and the Nuremburg Tribunal findings.

They considered every german person a legitimate target. That is why they dropped bombs which went off delayed, one or two days after. They should kill the people when they were removing the corpses. Ignition-mechanism functioned with acid. It is still an everyday-occurence that streets and areas get evacuated for unearthing WW2-Bombs (“Kampfmittelbergung”). The Brits should come over and remove this crap….

ulf – I read about a case like that just recently, in which the people in an area in Germany had to evacuate their homes temporarily because an unexploded bomb had been discovered.
The more I learn about what took place in WWII, the more unbelievable it becomes. Not that I don’t believe it – I do. But it just doesn’t fit what we’ve been taught all our lives. That’s why I think it has to go beyond Anglo-American jealousy of German competition, but … on the other hand, it’s true that economic competition can be murderous.

As much as I love Woody Guthrie’s music (I have a copy of his Library of Congress recordings and the recordings he did for Moe Asch’s Folkways records), you might want to be aware that he was a Communist and he associated with communist organizations his whole adult life.
Beginning in 1943, Guthrie played with a handwritten label on the front: “This machine kills fascists.”

In 1944, he wrote this song, “All You Fascists,” which he performed with others for radio, which expresses anti-racist ideas as well as internationalist socialism.

The Jewish welt.de denying the Rheinwieselager ever happened, no bombings happened, no rape happened, no starvation happened, we the “right t e r r o r” are all “imagining” German atrocities and of course no laws against the denial of the “inglorious victor’s” lies.
Jews regularly deny White Christians were persecuted, but this is called “scholarship”. When you question the Holocaust, it is racist hate antisemitic genocidism / holocaustinism.

Thanks, I kind of remembered that there was something like that about Woody Guthrie, but didn’t follow through, because … it’s so hard to find the right kind of music, especially in English! The “artists” mostly turn out to be homosexual or Jewish, which is worse than becoming a communist in the 1930′s. We might forgive the guy – he was born poor, after all. For him the fascists were mostly the rich oligarchs, not principled nationalists.

Woody Guthrie wasn’t born poor or ever really a poor person.
1. http://xroads.virginia.edu/~1930s/radio/woody/woodyhome.html
He identified with the working class because he was a Communist agitator who used songs about race and labor help spread cultural Marxism in America.
2. http://thislandpress.com/08/07/2012/the-myth-of-saint-woody/.
Read this rundown on his song against Charles Lindberg

American Comminists were thrown for a loop by the Molotov-Von Ribbontrop Pact. They had to tow the party line and cease agitating against fascists and National Socialists. As soon as Hitler attacked Russia they were back to their old animosity and wanted America in the war at once.

Thanks Charles, I will definitely remove him now. I was thinking about it.
This is one of the worst problems with finding music to use.

The only problem with this, RJ, is that it’s not good music and I don’t like it at all … despite the title.

carolyn – Economic competition can sometimes be cruel. But it is rather difficult to identifiy the economic advantage in the use of white phosphorous or in the deliberate targeting of civilians. Besides that, when you are able (more or less) to steer the currency(-ies), you can completely express your own disgusting attitudes in your deeds.

Maybe you will take a liking to this. Bill Boyd and his Cowboy Ramblers perform the famous ragtime tune the “Beaumont Rag” in 1937, named after and probably originating in the east Texas town of Beaumont. It remains one of the most beloved ragtime tunes for country fiddle, but it doesn’t sound “country”—ragtime is dance music originating in the cities, after all. There are no vocals, but the song is a peppy bit of Americana.

Let me insert here that I have determined that Ernst Heinkel, the genius aircraft builder, was NOT a Jew after all and I have removed that bullet point in the post. It’s good to know he was pure Aryan, which he himself proved with documents going 200 years back when some persons accused him of being Jewish … but he did have a big nose.
