Deputies of the German Reichstag: At a time when deeds are
everything and words but little, it is not my intention to approach you,
elected representatives of the German nation, more often than
absolutely necessary. The first time that I turned to you was at the
outbreak of the War, at the moment when, owing to the Anglo-French
conspiracy against peace, every attempt to reach a possible
compromise with the Poles which was otherwise possible had been
eliminated.
The most ruthless man of the present day who (as they themselves
admit today) as early as 1936 had conceived a plan of devastating and,
if possible, destroying Germany in a bloody war,because she was
growing too powerful in her peaceful prosperity, had at last found
an instrument in the Polish state, and prepared to draw the sword
for their interests and aims.
All my attempts at reaching an understanding, particularly with
England, nay even permanent friendly cooperation, were foiled
by the wish of a small clique, who, either out of hatred or for
material reasons,refused any German suggestion of agreement
and did not conceal their intention or desire of war. The driving
personality behind this mad and devilish plan of starting war at a
ny price was
At a time when the discontent of peoples with their
Governments had reached a peak, those irresponsible
men believed to be able to cope with a problem by
means of a war.
Behind them was Jewish banking, the Stock Exchange
and armament capital, which was attracted, as once
before, by the opportunity of a great, if dirty,deal.
As before, they were ruthlessly prepared to shed the blood
of their peoples.
Thus, the war started.
A few weeks later, the country that had been the first to allow itself to
be harnessed to the interests of Capital, was smitten and destroyed.
Under these circumstances, and to spare innocent and decent
people,who, no doubt, exist also in that other world, I decided to
make another appeal to the statesmen. On 6th October, 1939,
I declared that Germany had no grievance against England or
France, and I pointed out the horrors that modern arms would
bring to large areas once they were unbridled.
I warned them of the effects of heavy and long-range
artillery against civilian settlements, which would only
lead to the destruction of wide stretches of land on
both sides. I warned them of the Air Force which must
bring about destruction with its long arm to all that
which had been built up by centuries of hard work.
They repudiated my appeal just as that of 1st of September, 1939.
The British warmongers, and the Jewish capital behind them, found
no other interpretation of my considerations of humanity than the
assumption of German weakness. They assured the peoples of
England and France that Germany was trembling for fear of
disintegration in Spring, 1940, and wanted to conclude peace out
of fear.
They declared that peace could not come about the public in a
democracy until the Germa Reich was destroyed and its destitute
people would be queuing in front of the field kitchens of their enemies,
begging for food.
Blinded by such prophecies, the Norwegian Government was then
playing with the idea of a British invasion, of tolerating the occupation
of Norwegian ports and of the Swedish ore districts. So certain were
Churchill and Paul Reynaud of the success of their plan that, either
out of frivolity or under the effects of drink, they thought they need
no longer conceal their plans.
To this loquacity the German Government owes knowledge of this
plan,and the German nation what was, perhaps, the decisive counter-
stroke. The British plot against Norway was, undoubtedly, the most
threatening action. A few weeks later, this danger was forestalled.
The prevention of the attack by British and French forces against
the right flank of our front was one of the boldest feats of arms in
history.
This successful German defence brought about such strengthening
of our European positions that it can hardly be estimated high enough.
After the failure of this plan, an increased pressure was exerted on
Belgium and Holland. Since the stroke against the ore supplies had
been foiled, they hoped to eliminate the ore-processing districts by
carrying their front into the Rhineland. On 10th May last year, that
most memorable struggle in German history began, and within a
few days the enemy front was broken up and conditions were created
which led to the greatest battle of destruction in world history.
France collapsed; Belgium and Holland were occupied. The
British Forces, battered and smitten, left the continent.
On 19th July, 1940, I summoned the Reichstag for the third time,
as you will remember, to give them my account and to give
expression to the nation's gratitude to its soldiers.
Again I took the opportunity of that meeting to appeal to the world
for peace. I did not permit any doubts that my hopes in this
direction could only be slight, in view of my experiences.
For the men who had wanted the war do not act out of some kind
of ideal conviction; the moving force behind them was Jewish-
Democratic capitalism, to which they were indebted and, therefore,
subjected.
The milliards of capital already invested and immobilised by these
people interested in the war cried out for a return, and amortisation.
Therefore, a war of long duration did not frighten them; on the
contrary, it was convenient. This capital, in the form of factories
and machines, needed time to come into operation and even more
time until it came to the distribution of the expected profits. Nothing
is more hateful to these Jewish-Democratic people interested in the
war than the thought that an appeal made to the commonsense of
the nations could, at the last minute perhaps, succeed in ending
the war without further bloodshed, and thus curtail the profits of
their invested milliards.
Events happened exactly as I had predicted.
My peace offer was alleged to be a sign of fear and cowardice.
The European and American warmongers again succeeded in
blurring the sanity of the masses, who cannot gain by this war.
They succeeded in awakening new hopes by lying statements,
and finally, with the help of a public opinion directed by their
Press, made the people continue the fight.
My warnings against night bombing of the civilian population
advocated by Mr. Churchill, were interpreted only as a sign of German
impotence. This most bloody dilettante in history seriously thought
he could regard the German Air Force's forbearance over months
as proof of its inability to fly by night. This man ordered his paid
scribes to lie to the English people for months that the British Air
Force only and solely was in a position to wage war in this way,
and that means had been found to force the Reich down by the
relentless war of the English Air Force against the German civilian
population, together with the hunger blockade. I warned against
This again and again for more than three and a half months. I am
not surprised that these warnings had no influence on Mr. Churchill.
What does the happiness of other people, what does culture, what
do buildings mean to this man? At the very beginning of the war
he said that he wanted war, even if the towns of England should
be reduced to rubble and debris. Now he has got this war.
My assurance that from a certain moment onwards we would
retaliate for every bomb a hundred-fold if necessary, could not
move this man to think of the criminality of his actions. He declares
that it did not depress him. He even assures us that the British
people, too, had been looking at him with elated gaiety after
such air attacks, so that he always returned to London reassured.
It may be that Mr. Churchill was reassured in his decision to
continue the war in this way. We, however, are not less determined
to throw back for every bomb a hundred if necessary in the future,
until the British people get rid of this criminal and his methods.
(Applause) And if Mr. Churchill thinks that from time to time he had
to reinforce the power and intensity of his war by propaganda, then
we are prepared (slowly and emphatically) finally to begin this war
in that way too. The appeal of this fool and his vassals to the German
people to desert me on May Day, can only be explained by a
paralytical disease or the mania of a drunkard.
The decision to convert the Balkans into a theatre of war, also has
its root in this abnormal mental state. Like a madman, this man has
been running all over Europe for almost five years to find anything
which would burn. Unfortunately paid creatures can always be
found who open the doors of their countries to these international
incendiaries. Having succeeded during the winter, in forcing, by a
whole cloud of assertions and falsifications, the opinion on the
British people that the German Reich was exhausted by the
campaign last year and had come to the end of its powers, he
saw himself obliged, to prevent their awakening, to create yet another
pyre in
Europe. For this purpose he returned to a project of which he
had already thought in Autumn 1939 and in Spring 1940. You
remember,men of the German Reichstag, the published
documents of La Charite which revealed the attempt to create
a European theatre of war in the Balkans as early as the winter
of 1939-40. The instigators of this undertaking were Mr. Churchill,
Halifax, Deladier, Paul Reynaud, General Weygand and Gamelin.
As could be seen from these documents, it was hoped, should
this plan against the peace of South East Europe succeed, to
mobilise about a 100 divisions in the interests of England. The
sudden collapse in May-June last year upset these plans, but by
the autumn of last year, Churchill again started to consider this
project. This attempt had become more difficult, because a change
had taken place in the Balkans. Owing to the changes in Rumania,
that State was finally lost for England.
The new Rumania, under the leadership of General Antonescu,
began to conduct an exclusively Rumanian policy, without regard
to the hopes of British war interests. In addition, there was Germany's
attitude itself. When I today speak about this point, I will give, first of
all, a short description of the aims of German policy in the Balkans.
First, from the outset, the German Reich has had no territorial or
selfish political interests in the Balkans. Therefore, Germany was
not at all interested in territorial questions and the internal state of
the Balkan countries from any selfish interests. Second, Germany
has always endeavoured to open up and consolidate close economic
relations with these countries. This was not only in the interests of the
Reich, but also in the interests of those countries for, if anywhere,
the national economies of two trade partners complement each
other sensibly, then this was the case between the Balkans and
Germany. Germany is an industrial State and needs foodstuffs and
raw materials. The Balkans produce foodstuffs and have raw materials
and require industrial products. The result is an opportunity for the
fruitful extension of the mutual economic relations. If English and
American circles are of opinion that the establishment of trade
relations between Germany and the Balkans represents an
unlawful penetration of the Balkans by Germany, this is a
presumptio as stupid as it is impertinent.
Every State directs its economic policy according to its own
interests and not according to those of rootless Jewish democratic
capitalists. Apart from this, England and America can figure only
as sellers, but never as buyers in these countries.
It requires the entire economic narrow-mindedness of capitalistic
democrats to believe that, in the long run, States can exist which
are obliged to buy from someone who neither wants to buy from
them nor is in a position to do so.
Germany has not only been selling to the Balkans, but she has
also been the largest buyer there, and a good and lasting buyer
at that.
She has paid for the products of the Balkans by the work of
German industrial workers, and not by bogus currency. It is,
therefore,not surprising that Germany has become the most
important trade partner of the Balkans, and this is not only in
the interests of Germany.
Only the really capitalistic-minded brain of Jewish capitalists
can form the idea that a State which delivers machines to
another country thus acquires domination over it. It is easier
to go without machines than without food and raw materials.
The partner who receives wheat and raw materials is perhaps
more tied than the other.
No! In this bargain there was no victor or vanquished; there
are only partners. Germany has always been most anxious
to be an honest partner and to pay with good products and
not with democratic bogus money.
Third, if you want to speak about political interests at all
Germany has had only one interest in the Balkans, namely
to see that her trade partners were internally sound and strong.
She has, therefore, done everything possible, by advice and
action, by her influence and assistance, to help these countries
to consolidate their own existence and their internal order without
heed to the particular form of State prevailing there. The prosecution
of this effort led to increasing prosperity in these countries and
to the gradual growth of mutual confidence.
It was, of course, Mr. Churchill's endeavour to put an end to this
peaceful develop meet, and by the impertinent forcing of British
guarantees and pledges of assistance upon those countries, to
carry elements of unrest, insecurity, mistrust and even quarreling
into these European territories. He was supported by all those
obscure persons under British influence who were ready to place
the interests of their own nation after the wishes of those who gave
the orders. By these guarantees, first the Rumanian State and then
Greece was enticed. I think it has been abundantly proved by now
that, behind these guarantees there has never been a real power to
give help, but only the effort to drag those countries to the precipice
of the policy dictated by selfish interests. Rumania has paid dearly
for that guarantee. Greece, who had the least need for such a
guarantee, following the British enticement also agreed to link
her fate with England.
I believe I owe it to historical truth to say that, even today, a
difference must be made between the Greek nation and the
small group of people who, inspired by a King subservient to
England, were not so bent upon discharging the real task of
Statesmanship as to make the aims of the British war policy
their own.
I was genuinely sorry, and, to me as a German who has always
had the deepest veneration for the culture of that country from
which the first light of beauty and dignity sprang, it was particularly
painful to witness the development of events without being able to do
anything about it. I have learnt from the documents of La Charite
how the forces worked, which sooner or later, were bound to thrust
the Greek State into immeasurable disaster.
In the late summer of last year Mr. Churchill succeeded in confusing
certain circles to such an extent, by issuing platonic promises of
guarantees, that a continual chain of violations of neutrality followed.
Italy was also concerned. Therefore, she felt induced to make
proposals to the Greek Government to put an end to this intolerable
state of affairs.
Under the influence of British warmongers, this proposal was
brusquely rejected and the peace in the Balkans came to an end. When
the bad weather set in, and while the Greek soldiers offered an
extremely brave resistance to the Italians, the Athens Government had
sufficient time to ponder the possibilities of a reasonable solution.
With the slight hope of being able to contribute to such a solution,
Germany did not break off relations with Greece. However, I pointed
out then, that I should not be willing to witness, without taking action,
the revival of the Salonika ideas of the World War.
My warning that the British would be thrown into the sea
at once, whenever they tried to set foot anywhere in Europe,
was unfortunately not taken seriously.
We could see during the winter that England was creating bases
for a new Salonika Army. They began building aerodromes and the
necessary ground organisation, believing that they could occupy
the aerodromes very quickly. They eventually sent transports,
containing the equipment for an armywhich, in Mr. Churchill's opinion,
could be sent into Greece within a few weeks. We were not unaware
of this,as you know, but watched these activities for many months with
greatattention, if with restraint.
The setback which the Italian Army in North Africa suffered because
of a technical inferiority in anti-tank devices, as well as tanks, led
Mr. Churchill to believe that the moment had come to shift the theatre
of war from Libya to Greece. He ordered the transfer of his tanks, as
well as infantry divisions, consisting mainly of Australians and New
Zealanders, to start the coup which would plunge the Balkans into a
sea of fire. Mr. Churchill there by committed one of the greatest mistakes
of this war. As soon as England's intention to set foot in the Balkans
could no longer be doubted, I took the necessary steps to get to this vital
place all the forces necessary to oppose any nuisance that gentleman
might cause. I state here expressly that these measures were not directed
against Greece.
The Duce himself has never asked me to put at his disposal a single
division for that purpose, for he was convinced that a quick
decision would be arrived at one way or another in the forthcoming
favourable season. I was of the same opinion. The march of the
German forces, therefore, represented no assistance to Italy against
Greece, but a preventive measure against the British attempt to use
the Italo-Greek conflict to set foot on Greek soil, thus preparing for
a decision along the lines of the Salonika Army of the World War.
They wanted above all to drag still more nations into the war.
Their hopes were based, among others, on two States, Turkey and
Yugoslavia. I had attempted to bring about a close collaboration,
based on economic ties, with these two States, since my advent to
power. Yugoslavia, as far as the Serb nucleus is concerned, had
been our enemy in the World War. Yes, the World War started in
Belgrade. Nevertheless, the German people had no hatred for the
Yugoslavs. Turkey had been our ally in the World War. Its unfortunate
result was as heavy a burden for Turkey as it was for us. The great
and ingenious reconstructor of the new Turkey gave his Allies,
beaten by fate, the first example of resurrection. While Turkey,
thanks to the realistic attitude of her State leadership, preserved
her independent attitude Yugoslavia fell a victim to British intrigues.
Members of the Reichstag, and, above all, my old Party comrades,
you know how much I endeavoured to bring about friendship
between Germany and Yugoslavia. I worked for it for many years.
I believed I was assisted in my endeavour by some representatives
of that country, who seemed to see, as I did, only advantages in
our close collaboration When danger drew near to the Balkans, as a
result of British intrigues, I intensified my endeavour to preserve
Yugoslavia from this fatal entanglement Our Foreign Minister, party
member Ribbentrop, with his patience and ingenious persistence,
again and again pointed out the necessity of that collaboration, to
keepat least that part of Europe out of the war. He made exceptional
and loyal proposals to the Yugoslav Government, with the result
that inYugoslavia, too, the voices in favour of close collaboration
seemed to increase. It is, therefore, quite true when Mr. Halifax
declares that Germany never intended to make war in the Balkans.
On the contrary, it was our earnest intention to prepare the way
for closer collaboration with Yugoslavia, and perhaps even to bring
about a settlement of the Greek conflict acceptable to Italy.
The Duce notonly approved of our endeavours to bring Yugoslavia
into line with our peace aims, but assisted them by every means.
It thus became finally possible to move the Yugoslav Governmen
t to join the Three-Power Pact. This Pact made no claims on
Yugoslavia, and offered her nothing but advantages. For the sake
of historic truth, I must point out that neither this Pact nor the
supplementary agreement demanded any assistance whatsoever
from Yugoslavia. On the contrary, Yugoslavia received from the
Three Powers the solemn assurance that they would not ask her
for assistance, and were even prepared to abstain from any
transport of war materials through Yugoslavia from the very beginning.
At the request of her Government, Yugoslavia also received the
guarantee of an outlet underYugoslav sovereignty to the Aegean Sea,
in the case of any territorial changes in the Balkans. This outlet was
to include Salonika. On25th March, a Pact was signed in Vienna which
offered the greatest possible future to the Yugoslav State, and
secured peace for the Balkans at the same time. You will understand
that on that day I left the beautiful city on the Danube with a truly
happy feeling, notonly because eight years' labour seemed to yield
their reward at last, but because it appeared at the last minute as if
German intervention in the Balkans would be rendered unnecessary.
Two days' later we were deeply shocked by the news of a coup carried
out by a handful of hirelings-a deed which drew from the British Prime
Minister the triumphant exclamation: "At last, I have good news to
give you." You will not fail to understand, deputies, that in these
circumstances I at once gave the order for attack.
The German Reich cannot be treated like that. It is impossible to woo
someone's friendship for years, to conclude a treaty to the exclusive
advantage of another party, only to have it broken overnight, to see
the representatives of the Reich insulted, the military attache
threatened, his assistant injured, the dwellings of Reich Germans
destroyed and Germans generally persecuted as an outlawed prey.
I have indeed wanted peace. Mr. Halifax declared with a jeer, as if
to praise a triumph of British diplomacy, that this was the reason
why we were forced to fight. In face of such malice, I can do nothing
but protect the interests of the Reich with such means as, thank
God, are at our disposal.
I was able to take this decision all the more calmly as I could rely
on the constant and immutable fidelity and friendly attitude of
Bulgaria, and also of Hungary, now filled with justified indignation.
Both these old Allies of the World War necessarily felt this act a
provocation, coming from a State that once before had set the
whole of Europe on fire and afterwards caused untold suffering to
Germany, Hungary and Bulgaria.
On 27th March, I issued general operational directions to the High
Command of the Armed Forces, which presented the Army and the
Air Force with a very difficult task. The march to new operational
bases had to be improvised; detachments already on the spot had
to be moved; supplies had to be ensured. The Air Force had to
make use of numerous improvised bases, some of which were
water-logged. Without the understanding assistance of Hungary,
and the thoroughly loyal attitude of Rumania, it would have been very
difficult indeed to carry out the orders in the short time at our disposal.
I fixed the attack for 6th April. On this day, the Southern
Group in Bulgaria was ready to attack. The other Army groups were
to be employed as they got ready The dates were fixed for 8th,
10th, 11th respectively.
The idea of the operations was: first, to advance with one army from
the Bulgarian area into Greek Thrace, towards the Aegean; the
weight of this advance was placed on the right wing, where divisions
of mountain troops and an armoured division were to force a break-
through to Salonika. Second, to thrust with a second Army in
the direction of Skoplje and join up speedily with the Italian troops
operating from Albania; these operations were due to begin on 6th
April. Third, an attack starting on the 8th from Bulgaria in the
direction of Nish, with the aim of reaching the Belgrade area; a
German corps was to occupy the Barnt on the 10th, and reach
Belgrade from the north. Fourth, on the 11th, an army operating
from Corinthia, Styria and western Hungary was to open an attack
in the general direction of Zagreb, Sarajevo and Belgrade.
Three agreements had been concluded with our Allies, Italy
and Hungary. The Italian Armed Forces intended to advance from the
Julian Front along the coast of Albania, while other troops operating
from Albania were to establish contact with them. break through
the Yugoslav fortifications in the direction of Skoplje to effect a
junction with the German Army advancing ~n this area, and finally
break the Greek Front in Albania itself and push the enemy towards
the sea. In connection with these operations, the Dalmatian and
Ionian Islands were to be occupied. and other bases taken. There
had been agreements also for collaboration between the two air
forces.
The leadership of the German armies operating against Macedonia
and Greece was in the hands of General Field-Marshal von List who,
this time again, in the most difficult conditions, accomplished his task
in truly superior style. The forces operating from the South-West
of the Reich and from Hungary against Yugoslavia were under
the command of General-Oberst von Weichs. He, too,reached
the objectives set him in the shortest possible time with the troops
at his disposal.
The Army and Military SS detachments forced the Greek Army in
Thrace to capitulate within five days; they established contact with
the Italian forces advancing from Albania; they brought Salonika
firmly under their control. After 12 days, Serbia was forced to
capitulate, and the preliminary condition was fulfilled for the equally
hard and glorious break-through to Athens. This operation was
crowned by the occupation of the Peloponnese and the Greek Islands.
A comprehensive appreciation of these historic achievements will
be given by the High Command of the Armed Forces under the
leadership of General Field-Marshal Keitel and General Jodl, who
always did excellent work.
The Air Force, under the personal command of the Reich Marshal
and his Chief of Staff, General Jeschenik, was divided in two main
groups under the Command of General-Oberst Loehr and
General von Richthofen. The task of the Air Force was, first,
to destroy the enemy air force and its ground organisation; second
, to attack all the important military objectives in the centre of conspiracy,
Belgrade, or eliminate them right from the beginning; third, to
give the most active support to the fighting forces by flights and by
anti-aircraft activity; to break the resistance of the enemy, to render
his flying operations difficult and, if possible, to prevent his
subsequent embarkation. Furthermore to render further valuable
assistance to the army by the use of parachutists.
Members of the Reichstag! In this campaign, the German armed
forces have truly surpassed themselves. The actual deployment
of the troops offered tremendous difficulties. The attack against the
partly very-strongly-fortified positions, particularly at the front in Thrace,
was one of the heaviest tasks which could ever be put before an
army. In this campaign, whole units fought in territory which, up to
now, had been considered absolutely impassable for tanks. The units
performed tasks worthy of the highest praise not only of the men,
their ability, courage, endurance, but also of the quality of the material.
Infantry, tanks and alpine divisions, as well as units of the SS,
competed with each other in indefatigable self-sacrifice, courage
and devotion, in endurance and ability, to accomplish the tasks they
had been ordered to carry out. The work of the General Staff was
again excellent. The Air Force has added new laurels to its already
historical glory. With a bravery and a devotion which can only be
judged by one who knows the difficulties of this territory, it has
carried out attacks under the worst possible climatic conditions-
attacks which only a short while ago would have been considered
impossible. Anti-aircraft guns, as usual, accompanied the infantry
and Panzer divisions on roads which could hardly be described as
bridle paths. Only one sentence can be written about this campaign:
"Nothing is impossible for the German soldier." The drivers of
military cars and lorries, of supply and other lorries, of the artillery,
of the Air Force and of the A.A. guns, are to be especially
mentioned in this theatre of war. In the fight against fortified
positions, as well as in the construction of bridges and roads, our
engineers have attained special glory; the signaling troops deserve
the highest praise. On impassable roads, over blown-up streets, over
rolling stones and mountain paths, over broken bridges, through
high passes, over bare fields, this victorious campaign has finished the
war in two States within three weeks.
We know that a large share of this success is due to our Allies.
In particular, the fight sustained for six months in the most difficult
conditions and with the greatest sacrifices, which Italy waged
against Greece, not only engaged the greater part of the Greek Army,
but so weakened it that its collapse had already become inevitable.
The Hungarian Army also, again proved its old military glory. It
occupied the Batchka and advanced across the Sava with
motorised columns. Historical justice obliges me to state that
of the enemies who took up positions against us, the Greek soldier
particularly fought with the highest courage. He capitulated only
when further resistance had become impossible and useless.
But I must also speak of the enemy who planned and started
this fight.
As a German and a soldier, I think it undignified to vilify a brave
enemy; I think, however, that it is necessary to protect the truth
from the bragging of a man who, as a soldier,is a wretched
politician,and as a politician an equally wretched soldier.
Mr. Churchill, who started this fight too, tries, just as in
Norway and at Dunkirk, to saysomething here which, sooner or
later, can be falsified into a success. I don't consider this
honourable, but I find it understandable,coming from this man.
If ever anyone else had experienced so many defeats as a
politician and so many catastrophes as a soldier, he
would not have retained his office for six months, unless he
had had that ability, which is Mr. Churchill's only ability, to lie with
piousdevotion for so long that eventually the most terrific defeats
are turned into glorious victories. Mr. Churchill can dope his own
countrymen in this way, but he cannot do away with the
consequences of his defeat. A British Army of 60,000 or 70,000
men was landed in Greece, although before the catastrophe,
this same man pretended that there were 240,000. The aim of
this army was to attack Germany from the south, to inflict defeat
on her and to terminate the war from here, just as in 1918.
Churchill's aider and abetter, who had again been drawn
into the catastrophe in this case, Yugoslavia, was destroyed after
a little undert wo weeks from the beginning of the operations.
The British troops in Greece were, three weeks later, either
killed, wounded,taken prisoner, drowned or chased out of the
country.
These are the facts.
Thus, in my last speech, too, when I announced that wherever
the British should come to the Continent they will be attacked by us
and driven into the sea, I proved a better prophet than Mr. Churchill.
He brazenly declared that this war has cost us 75,000 dead,
that is,more than double the number of the Western campaign.
He even went further, he ordered one of his hirelings to inform
his Englishcountrymen, who so rarely show intelligence, that
the British, having killed enormous masses of Germans, finally
turned away with horror from this slaughter and that they withdrew,
soto speak, only for that reason. It follows altoge ther that the
Australians and New Zealanders would still be in Greece had
not the English, with their rare mixture of leonine courage and
childlike soft-heartedness, killed so many Germans that, disgusted
and horrified with their own heroic deeds, they finally withdrew,
embarked and made away.
This is how it came about that we found almost exclusively
Australian and New Zealand dead and that we took almost
exclusively Australian and New Zealand prisoners. Such stuff
you can tell.
But now I shall put before you the results of this campaign
in a few brief figures.
In the course of the operations against Yugoslavia,
without counting the soldiers of German stock
or the Croats and Macedonians who were immediately
released, we had the following purely Serb prisoners:
6,298 officers and337,864 men. These figures are not final.
The number of Greek prisoners, amounting to 8,000 officers and
210,000 men, cannot be compared with the above figures
for, as far as the Greek, Macedonian and the Epirus Armies
are concerned, they were encircled and forced to capitulate
only as a consequence of common German-Italian operations
The Greek prisoners, too, have been or will be immediately
released because of their gallant bearing. The number
of English, New Zealand and Australian prisoners exceeds
9,000 officers and men.
The booty cannot yet be even approximately calculated.
Our share, according to estimates made so far, amounts
to more than half a million rifles, far more than a thousand
guns,many thousands of machine-guns, anti-aircraft artillery,
numerous vehicles and large quantities of munitions tonnage of
mortars, and equipment. To this I should like to add the
enemy shipping sunk bythe German Air Force.
Seventy-five ships of a total of 400,000 tons were destroyed and
~47 ships of a total of 700,000 tons were damaged.
These results were achieved through the employment of the
following German forces:
Firstly, for the operations in the southeast,altogether 31 full
divisions and two half divisions were provided. The lining up
of these forces took place within seven days.
Secondly,out of these, 11 infantry and Alpine divisions, six armoured
divisions and three complete and two half-motorised divisions of
the army and the armed SS troops were actually employed in battle.
Thirdly out of these units, 11 were in action for more than six days
and ten less than six days.
Fourthly, 11 units did not go into action at all.
Fifthly, even before the conclusion of operations in Greece, three
units could be withdrawn and three more units were no longer
required, and, therefore, not brought up from the rear, while two
units were stopped for the same reason in the unloading areas.
Sixthly,out of these only five units altogether were engaged in battle
with the English. Out of the three armoured divisions included in this
figure only two were constantly employed, whereas the third was
stopped in the course of operations and withdrawn, as it was also
no longer required.
Consequently, I am stating, in conclusion, that in the fight with
the English, New Zealanders and Australians, altogether only
two armoured divisions, one Alpine division and thebody guard
were employed.
The losses of the German Army and the German Air Force, as well
as of the armed SS troops in this campaign, were the smallest we
have had so far. In the battle with Yugoslavia and Greece, or with
the British in Greece, the German Army and the armed SS troops
lost 57 officers and 1,042 non-commissioned officers killed, 181
officers and 3,571 NCO's and men wounded; and 13 officers and
372 NCO's and men missing. The Air Force: 10 officers and 42
NCO's and men dead; and 36 officers and 104 NCO's and men
missing My Deputies of the Reichstag, I can only say again that
we are sympathising with the heaviness of the sacrifice of the
families afflicted and that we, like the whole German nation,
are expressing our gratitude from the bottom of our hearts. But,
seen from a wider angle, these losses are so minute that they
are the highest justification for the start and the period of this
campaign,
for the direction of the operations, and thirdly, for their execution.
It is the training of our Commanding Corps which is beyond
compare, the high qualityof our troops, the superiority of our
equipment, the quality of our munitions, as well as the icy cold
courage of each single man, which enabled us to win with such
small losses.
The success of such historically decisive importance was won at
the same time as the two allied Axis Powers in North Africa could
also liquidate in the course of a few weeks the so-called success
of the British forces there.
For we cannot separate from the operations in the Balkans, the
action of the German African Corps, connected with the name
of General Rommel and of the Italian Forces in the Battle for Cyrenaica.
One of the most bungling of strategists has thus lost two
battlefields in one stroke. That this man, who in every other
country would have been court-martialled, is enjoying new
admiration as Prime Minister in his land (Hitler's voice very sarcastic)
is not a proof of the classical greatness shown by Roman Senators
towards their valiantly-defeated Army Commanders, but a sign
of that eternal blindness with which the Gods strike those whom
they wish to destroy.
The consequences of this campaign are extraordinary. In view of
the oft-proved chance that in Belgrade time and again a handful
of conspirators were able to kindle a fire for extra-Continental
interests, it means a relaxation for the whole of Europe that this
danger has now been definitely abolished. The Danube, that
important traffic-war, has now been safeguarded against acts
of sabotage for all time to come. Traffic there has again been
resumed to its full extent.
Apart from some modest adjustment of its frontiers infringed after
the last war, the German Reich has no territorial interests in that
zone. Politically, it is interested only in the safeguarding of peace
in this area; economically in the establishment of an order that will
provide for the production of goods for the general benefit and that
will again revive the exchange of products.
It is, however, in the spirit of a higher justice that along with this
ethnographic, economic and historic interests are being considered
and met. With regard to this development, however, Germany
is merely an interested spectator.
We welcome the fact that our allies are now able to satisfy
their national and political ambitions. We rejoice at the
establishment of Independent Croatia, with which we hope
we shall be able to entertain friendship and mutual faith
throughout the future. In the economic field, this cannot but
lead to mutual benefit.
That the Hungarian nation has advanced by one more step
towards the revision of that unjust peace once forced upon
her fills us withcordial sympathy. That the injustice once done
to Bulgaria is being put right moves us especially, because
we feel that since this revision was made possible by German
arms the German nation has repaid a historic debt of gratitude
towards its faithful comrade-in-arms of the Great War.
That, however, our ally Italy should obtain that territorial and
political influence which is due to her alone in her living-space
, she has more than deserved, in view of the exceedingly heavy
blood sacrifices she has had to bear since October of last year
for the sake of the future of the Axis.
Towards the vanquished and unhappy Greek nation we feel
sincere sympathy. It was the victim of its King and of its deluded leading
caste. It has, however, fought so bravely that even the respect
of its enemies cannot be withheld from it.
The Serbian nation, however, will perhaps after all draw the
only correct conclusion from this war some day: namely, that the
coup d'etat officers were only a misfortune for it.
All those concerned, however, will perhaps bear in mind this time
that exceedingly noble manner and way in which the country and
its leaders, for whom they had the honour of sacrificing themselves,
have now dissociated themselves according to that handsome
principle of the "Moor being dismissed after having done his duty."
I think that hardly ever has greater cynicism been meted out to small
nations who have sacrificed themselves than in this case. To drive
a nation into a way as a handyman, and then to declare that one did
not believe in success right from the beginning, but that one had to
do it to make someone else, who did not want to fight in this theatre,
fight after all-that, I think is the most shameless instance that
world history can offer. Only in an epoch when capitalist greed for
money and political hypocrisy are blended in such a way as is the
case in our democracies today can such a mode of action be
regarded as so little dishonouring that he who is responsible for it
can even boast about it in public.
My Deputies of the German Reichstag: if we survey this
latest campaign then we realise again the importance of a
most thoroughtraining of our soldiers, and also of their superb
equipment.
Very much blood has been saved because very much sweat
has previously been sacrificed! All that our soldiers had been
taught in relentless and troublesome training has brought
great benefit, particularly in these operations. With a minimum
of blood has a maximum of effect been achieved, thanks to the
training, thanks to the ability of the German soldier, and thanks
to his leadership. However, this minimum of sacrifice demands
a maximum of arms, an optimum in the quality of arms, a maximum
of ammunition and optimum quality of ammunition.
I am not one of those people who regard war only as a
problem of material. After all, material is lifeless; it is man
who brings it to life.
But even the best soldier must fail if a bad or an inadequate
weapon is handed to him Therefore, the life of many of our sons
rests with the home country. Its sweat can save the blood of our
soldiers.
It is, therefore, the supreme duty of every German to do his best
for our fighting front and to provide it with the arms which it requires.
Apart from all the other factors that once led to the loss of the last
war, it was, in the end, the lack of a new weapon of attack, decisive
even then, and the lack of the corresponding weapon for defence.
What our soldiers can achieve. they have proved in this campaign.
The sum total of their hardships, individually and collectively, will
never be forgotten by the home country. Whatever the home front
makes available of its own energy in this fateful struggle bears no
comparison with what millions of our men have achieved at the
fronts, what they must achieve, and what they will achieve. I do not
wish that any other country should ever surpass us in this respect.
Nay, more than that: it is the duty of all of us to see to it that our
lead does not diminish, but, on the contrary, steadily increases.
This is not a problem of capital, but exclusively one of labour and
thus one of our own will and our own capabilities. I believe that, in
the first place, the German girl and the German woman can make
yet a further contribution. Millions of German women are on the
land, in the fields, and performing the hardest work possible; they
have to replace the men. Millions of German women and girls are
working in factories and workshops and in offices and there, too,
they give a good account of themselves. It is not unfair if we
demand that still many hundreds of thousands others should take
these millions of working German Volksgenossinnen as an example.
Even if we are today in a position to mobilise in the sphere of work
more than half of Europe for this fight, our own people still remain
the most valuable factor in this process of work. If today, the democratic
demagogues of the country against which the German
people have never done anything, with the assertion that the German
people intended to do something against them-which is an absurd
lie-are threatening to suffocate the National Socialist People's State,
which is inconvenient to them by the force of their capitalistic
system and their material production, then there is only one reply:
The German people will never again experience a 1918, but will rise
to ever higher achievements in all spheres of national defence.
With increased fanaticism, it will stand to the sentence which I
pronounced in my first Reichstag speech, that neither force of
arms nor time will ever make us yield, let alone break the German
people. It will therefore, keep to its superiority of armament and
under no circumstances will it allow the lead to be taken from it.
If the German soldier even now possesses the best arms in the
world,then he will get this year and next year, even better ones.
If, even now, the material side of the struggle is no burden for him,
as opposed to the state of affairs in the last war, then in future it
will not become worse, but even better. We are under an obligation
to harness the whole of the working-power of the nation to this
greatest process of armament in world history. The necessary
measures will be taken with National Socialist determination and
thoroughness. Apart from this, I can give to you Members of
Parliament, men of the German Reichstag, the assurance that I
am looking to the future absolutely calmly, and with unshakable
confidence.
The German Reich and its allies represent militarily, economically
and also morally, a power superior to any possible coalition in the
world. The German armed forces will always and everywhere
intervene when and wherever it is necessary. The German nation
will accompany its soldiers on their way with its confidence.
It knows that the war is the consequence of the greed of a few
international
warmongers, and of the hatred of the Jewish democracies standing
behind them. These criminals have refused every German offer of
peace because it was contrary to their capitalist interests. But he
who dares to use the word "God" for such devilish activity
blasphemes against Providence and, according to our belief,
he cannot end except in destruction.
Thus today we are fighting, not only for our own existence, but also
to liberate the world from a conspiracy which, without scruples,
put the happiness of nations and people second to the basest egoism.
The National Socialist Movement has once defeated this enemy in a
struggle lasting for 15 years within the Reich; the National Socialist
State will also be able to defend itself against them externally.
The year 1941 shall and will go down in history as the greatest of
our resurr ection. The German Armed Forces, Army, Navy, and
Air Force, will fulfill their highest duty in this sense. Let me at this
point express my thanks to the German soldiers who in this campaign
again gained superior achievements, my thanks also to the German
people in town and country who have created the conditions for
these successes by their industry.
Our special thanks to those German Volksgenossen who, as victims
of this war, have fallen or were wounded, and to those relatives
who mourn these victims. If we, with all this in mind, look up to the
That He? made it possible for us to gain those great successes
with so little bloodshed. We can only ask Him not to forsake our
people in the future. What is within our power to defend ourselves
against our enemies will be done. In this country a spirit has come
to life which the world has hitherto never overcome.
A pious feeling for community prevails in our nation: a feeling which
we have gained in fight after many mistakes. That which makes
us feel so proud compared with other nations, no power in the
world can wrest away from us.
stands the National Socialist peoples' State like a rock of social
justice and clear reason which will not only survive this war, but even
the coming millennium.

The world has been taught that today's so-called Jews represent the
"Israel" of the Bible. Yet the Bible warns that there will be people who
fallaciously claim to be Israelites:
Revelation 2 verse 9:
"I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty; (but thou art rich) and I
know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but
are the synagogue of Satan."
Revelation 3 verse 9:
"Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are
Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and
worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee."
The people of European origin known as Jews today are not descendants
of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. They are imposters! History reveals that
the modern so-called Jews are actually descendants of the Khazar tribes,
which roamed Southern Russia.
They adopted the religion of Judaism between the 7th and 9th centuries.
Today, the Khazars are known as the Ashkenazi Jews and Israelis, not
because of race or genealogy but because of religion.
These facts are documented in the research of such renowned Jewish
scholars as Dr. Oscar Levy, Paul Meyer. and Arthur Koestler. In fact,
in his book, The Thirteenth Tribe, Arthur Koestler states that the notion
of European Jewry as being biblically authentic is one of the biggest
hoaxes ever perpetrated on the world.
Koestler argues that the bulk of modern Jewry did not originate in
Palestine, but are of Caucasian origin. He notes that the mainstream
of Jewish migration did not flow from the Mediterranean across France
and Germany to the east and then back again. The stream moved in a
westerly direction, from the Caucasus region through the Ukraine into
Poland and thence into central Europe.
Biblically speaking the so-called Jews of today are known as the
Amalekites or (Amalek). Their lineage stems from Isaac's son Esau not
Jacob.
According to Judaism, one is a Jew if his/her mother is Jewish.
However, the Tenach does not give any credence to a matriarchal lineage
to prove that one is a jew.
The Bible specifically details the fact that one is a Jew based on the lineage
or seed of his/her father and not the mother.
The bible puts great emphasis on the forefathers Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob. The Khazars (Amalekites) knew that they could not be natural
Jews, due to the fact that their patriarchal lineage did not stem back to
Jacob.
Therefore, they created a religion called Judaism, which is based
on the false concept of a matriarchal lineage to prove that one is a Jew.
The so-called Jews of today are the same as any other so-called
White person.
They are all known as the Edomites in the Bible.
According to all historical, scientific, and biblical facts the true descendants
of the original Jews of the bible are the so-called Blacks in
America and through out the Caribbean islands.
The Native American,Aztec, Taoino, Seminole, and Arawak
Indians of North, South, and Central America comprise the rest
of the twelve tribes of Israel.
The Transatlantic Slave trade was the true Holocaust.
However, The Holocaust in Nazi Germany did occur.
But, 6 million people did not perish. The figure is closer to 1 to 2 million.
The "six million" figure has been embedded into the world's psyche
in order to gain support and sympathy. More importantly, the men
who later became known as Zionist were the ones who financed Hitler.
The Rothschild family of The Bank of Rothschild were the primary
financiers of Germany during Hitler's reign.
The Rothschilds are a very notable Jewish banking family.
Hitler was just a front man for the world bankers spearheaded by the
Rothschild family. Ironically, Hitler's grandmother was Jewish.
In addition, there were many high ranking Jewish officers with in Hitler's
army.
Historical evidence is surfacing which indicate that the Rothschilds and
other Jewish financiers sacrificed some of their own Jewish brethren
and others in order to gain world sympathy so that they can establish
the state of Israel.
Prior to World War Two, it would have been impossible for the U.N.
or any other International body to charter the existence of such a state.
But in 1948, with world sympathy on their side, Zionist were able
to create the State of Israel.
And today, it is ironic that the Rothschild family is one of the biggest
land owners in Israel.
The establishment of the State of Israel was a bonanza both financially
and militarily. Today, Israel receives a grant of $8 billion dollars every
year from the U.S. government Do the math ED: 8x50= $ 400 billion.
Militarily, it enables the U.S. and England [ & Germany] to have a strategic
ally in the Middle East oil region.
And historically the State of Israel perpetrates the lie that the Israelis are the
true Jews or chosen people.
According to the bible, the Israelites would not see Palestine again until
the Messiah comes and establishes the New Jerusalem.
Furthermore the bible states in Isaiah the second chapter that when
the real Jews and Israelites return back to their land "nations will learn
war no more.
They will put down their weapons and convert them into tools used
to cultivate the land."
This has yet to happen, because Jerusalem is presently being
downtrodden by the gentiles until the time of the gentiles be fulfilled.
The real Jews are not in there homeland!
America is supporting a colossal fabrication by supporting the State of
Israel.
The land does not originally belong to the Palestinians nor does it
belong to the Israelis. But, it belongs to the true Jews and Israelites who
are scattered mainly through out North, South and Central America and
other parts of the world.
America's support of the State of Israel will eventually lead
to World War Three.
There will be some who will try to dispute these facts as rubbish,
propaganda, or even lies. But, I Challenge them to present their facts.
Prove to me that those in Israel today are the real Jews.
And please explain to me where are the other tribes.
I challenge any of you to a debate. I have a myriad of other
biblical, historical, and geographical evidence to further
prove my statementsTerah

PEACE!
Just thinking about the real Jews or the real Children of Israel, makes me
think about a very significant point that has not been addressed openly.
The Children of Israel were a people who were supposed to have been in
bondage to Pharoah (wicked government) for 400 years. Can anyone
prove to me that those people in Israel who are occupying Palestinian
land are the descendants of Slaves!
Of course, someone will probably respond with the Jews being
descendants of Abraham but, check this out-Jesus debating with the
Jews of his day says this: "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall
make you free."
Their answer: "We be Abraham's seed, and were NEVER in bondage to
any man...." (St. John 8:32,33)

Re: Who are the real Jews?
i don't have time for a really long post cuz of school and exams and
all...but Judah...regarding your argument....
if the REAL Jews are only those who were part of the Biblical account,
then it must be true for all religions...hence the REAL Christians can
only be those who are direct descendents of the Apostles.....and the real
Muslims can only be Arabs or the people from Medina..the direct lineage
of the Prophet and his Imams.......(I'm bein a devil's advocate here and
goin by the premises that you have put down).....
I believe you put down this:
"The people of European origin known as Jews today are not
descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. They are imposters!"
Using hereditary lineage as a requirement for a person to hold religious
beliefs, then if any person who is NOT an Arab (i.e. every
African-American person, every non-Arab white person, whether they
are Caucasian, Latin, or Chinese) claims to be a Muslim, then s/he is an
imposter as well!....that's very ironic seeing how the biggest majority of
Muslims is found in Indonesia....a population that is NOT
Arab...anyhow...a religious belief USED to be hereditery...passed on
.from father to son, etc....I'm not sayin that it shouldn't be so, in most
cases it still is...but belief in any religion does not mean that one has to
blindly follow what one is told... I know that it is a Muslim's SACRED
duty to devine Islam for themselves and not "blindly follow" the sheik,
thier parents, or whomever...but "back in the day"..there was more
respect for the family and you did as your father did..it was also
customary for a person to take their father's profession as their
own....Abraham was a sheperd, as was Isaac after him...Joseph was a
carpenter, as Jesus was after him...Muhammed's was an orphan but he
lived in a society that thrived on trade and he was a merchant and
tradesman(I'm rememberin all these facts as well as I can this late at
nite..if I'm wrong about one of their lives, please let me know)...you see
the trend? so you not only took on your father's religion, responsibilities
and his profession, but you almost took on his entire life....that is not the
case now...and thanks to the enlightened attitude of the international
community today, one is free to choose the religion that they deem is
best for themselves.....
That's how you have people who are not of the lineage of Abraham, Isaac
or Jacob, being Jews....but, if one truly believes Judaisms tenets/doctrines
with every fibre of their being, who are YOU or who am I to tell them
that they are imposters??
Am I to call you an imposter because you do not come from a line of
school teachers or scholars and thus have no right to be posting up
anything that requires you to have literary skills of any sort???
To go on lineage when it comes to such a personal and diverse matter as
religion, I believe, is absurd..I can see where you are going to disprove
the claim 'Jews' have on the Holy Land, but to say anyone is an imposter
is being twice as bad....no one can really divine what is in a man's heart
but Allah Himself...no disrespect, but I hardly think you are qualified in
that case...
And I just wanna clear somethin up as well....Everyone keeps making
referrences to the Bible and the Torah and the other religious text of
Judaism (sorry i've forgotten the title), and then commenting on
them...you cannot do that..because as you take out select texts, you are
not puttin them in their correct context...This is what I mean....Let's say
there was a text that said "If the water turns red and it becomes warm, it
means that all the fish in it will die because the sun has shone on
it"....what you are all doin by takin select texts and not lookin at what
text came before and after it, is like simply quoting: "it means that all
fish in it will die"...and then you go on to comment that "all fish will die"
because it says so in his book and it says that in her book...that is not
right...you are also readin the texts in the English lanuage...you can
NEVER get the absolute, correct meanin of a text unless you read it in its
original language (this means Hebrew for the Torah and the Old
Testament, Greek for the New Testament, and Arabic for the
.Qu'ran)...even then it is hard to articulate the contexts of those texts...
but to take a select part of text and paraphrase or try and decipher it that way
is not giving due justice to what that phrase may have meant...
another example is somethin you've quoted, Judah....
""Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they
are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and
worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee."
Now, from just that, how am I supposed to know who the "thee" is
referring too? Is it talkin to the average Christian? or is it referring to
John, who actually recieved the Revelation? Or is it in reference to Jesus
Christ and what will happen at the end of time???
You see how quotin does not help unless the whole text is there? And do
you all remember how I've always said that the problem is relativity and
the institutionalization of religion??? well, THAT IS MY PROOF
RIGHT THERE...if I had never heard of any of these religions before but
ran across that quote and went and asked Judah for his translation of it,
he will give me the same translation he gave the first time...if I asked
Matt, he may give me another one...and I may recieve an altogether
different response from alltimate daphaynce if I asked him? who is right
and who is wrong? and why would one be right and the other wrong????
this is where I have to open my own eyes and throw away my blindness,
and while I should take into account all their interpretations and respect
them, I should belief in the interpretation is best for me....
Now, one more thing that I think gets muddled up...everyone keeps sayin
that the 'Jews' are using the Biblical reference of "Isreal" belongin to the
Jews as their excuse for occupyin "Palestine"....that is NOT true...the
Jews do NOT believe in the Bible...they have their own Sacred Book..the
Torah..it is similar to the Old Testament, but it is not the same text...so
really, the Bible, as Westerners see it, is no what the claim is based on....
I have to go now...you all have a great week....May
Allah/God/Jah/Yahweh(He is One!) Bless you all.....
P.S...lol is that enough grace for ya dynamek??

Please don't quote from the Bible, let's keep it real!

Personal message:
Reasons for the featherless chicken experiment: overheating
of chickens, more meat, etc. See article attached to photo.
Unfortunately, your overall, normal rhetoric seems biased
against the Jewish people. I guess you have a seed of hate
(self hate?) planted so deep that in this lifetime you will not
be able to get past this serious problem. You always manage
to point to some "bad" thing about Jews.
Hating and anger is bad and probably the reason why you have
not been accepted by your peers and the professionals who
could make a big
difference in your life. Specifically, I mean, those that could
give you money. No one person or group is responsible for
the probelms in your life, or those that trouble the inhabitants
of this planet. Try forgiveness.

Suzanne:
In your research I would suggest two topics: 1) "Rhineland
Bastards"
2) Contact the USHMM about a presentation they had on a black man from
N.Africa
interned at Dachau (Camp?).

In the 1982 (or so) film, "Mephisto," starring Klaus Maria Brandauer, the
main character has a mistress who is Black. The film is available on
videotape.

Suzanne Vromen asks about blacks living in Nazi Germany.
Before World War One, the Imperial German army employed a small
handful of blacks as kettledrummers in the cavalry. I know that at
least one was from the (then) German possession of the Cameroons in
Africa. I don't know if any of these few persons retired and stayed
on in Germany, or whether they returned to Africa.
Perhaps some black sailors resided for some short or long periods of
time in the big ports such as Hamburg. I'm just guessing.
In the book THE GREAT WHITE HOPE, during a world tour the American
champion boxer converses with a black residing in (pre-WWI) Germany.
I have the vague memory that the man had not much good to say about
his relations with Germans. I can't remember this exactly.

"Hope lives when people remember"--Simon Wiesenthal
=============================================
From: Stephen Feinstein < feins001@MAROON.TC.UMN.EDU >
Racial Hygiene had an interest in blacks in three areas:
1. German colonies in Africa (Namibia, Togo, Cameroons, East
Africa/Tanganyika because of sexual relations between German men and
African women, resulting in the birth of the first black Germans.
This led to Eugen Fischer's 1913 work about giving minimal protection to
mixed races.
2. The Rhineland Bastards--result of sexual relations between French West
African troops stationed in the Rhineland during the occupation of
1920-21. This was a great concern to eugenicists.
3. Rhineland Bastards were sterilized in 1937.
4. Hitler and other made comparisons between German "progress" on race
separation and the advances of the United States because of sterilization
campaigns in the USA during the 1920s (15,000 sterilized in US by 1929)
and laws of segregation and prohibition on mixed racial marriages in most
states. Hitler probably didn't know the subtlety of American law at that
time, but Jews and Blacks were exluded from land ownership in many
cities, excluded from country clubs, hospitals for practicing MDS, and
many other variations. Minneapolis was dubbed the "capital of American
anti-Semitism" in 1946 because of land exclusions, no mds in hospitals,
no Jews in country clubs, few Jews in the public schools, and prohibition
of Jews from joining the AAA-Automobile association. This was sort of the
"Gentlemen's Agreement" type of anti-Semitism in the 1947 film of the
same name.

To Suzanne Vromen:
I don't know about the larger issue offhand, but one starting point
for your query might be
Farbe bekennen : afro-deutsche Frauen auf den Spuren ihrer
Geschichte (Berlin: Orlanda Frauenverlag, 1986) which has been published
in English as _Showing our Colors: Afro-German Women Speak Out_
(Amherst : University of Massachusetts Press, 1992)
The book is a collection of essays by and about the descendants of
French-African soldiers (of the Rhineland occupation) and German
women.

Dear Suzanne Vromen,
One interesting volume on Blacks in Germany is: Katharina Oguntoye, May
Opitz and Dagmar Schultz, Hg., Farbe bekennen. Afro-deutsche Frauen auf
den Spuren ihrer Geschichte. The book has a broad chronological scope
that stretches from the Enlightenment to World War II and includes an
interesting discussion of Blacks in the Third Reich (victims of
sterilization
programs, of camps, etc.). I hope that this helps.
