parallelograms

=====================
The Guilty
Attack on America / The Crimes of Al-Queda / Arab Extremists /
Bin Laden as the Cause / The Islamic Jihad /
Check the Evil Terrorists of the World!

=====================

A few days ago, America was astonished by the news of terrorists attacks on the World Trade Centre Towers and the Pentagon. Thousands of innocent civilians were killed as the towers collapsed in a toxic cloud of dust and smoke after being hit by Boeing airliners that were hijacked by evildoers. The ringleader is thought to be the head of the Al Queda terrorist network in Afghanistan, Usama Bin-Laden.

At the time the press brought another unsettling report: terrorist cells were located in over 60 countries!

Anthrax

was distributed through the post, threats to murder both individuals and groups of American citizens were revealed. The bloody uprising was supposed to begin throughout America in the immediate future. There was to be murder and arson in cities and towns.

These news items had a strong effect throughout America. The indifferent citizen who had not wanted to see the enormous danger of terrorism looked in horror toward New York and Washington. He too realized now that America faced a terrible threat. The threat to freedom and democracy was the signal that brought every American to his senses.

=====================
The Guilty
The Reichstag Fire / The Crimes of Bolshevism / Marxist Agitation /
The Jews as the Cause / The Zionist Protocols /
Convict the World Criminals

=====================

A few days ago, Germany was astonished by the news of arson in the Reichstag. Fires were set in more than twenty places in the building. It was almost completely destroyed. The ringleader is the head of the Communist faction in the Reichstag, Representative Torgler.

At the time time the press brought another unsettling report. In the basement of the "Karl Liebknecht Building" [The Communist Party Headquarters]:

secret passages

and hidden tunnels were discovered. Material that encouraged civil war was found. Detailed plans to murder both individuals and groups of Germans citizens were found. The bloody uprising was supposed to begin throughout Germany in the immediate future. There was to be murder and arson in cities and villages.

These news items had a strong effect throughout Germany. The indifferent citizen who had not wanted to see the enormous danger of Bolshevism looked in horror toward Berlin. He too realized now that Germany faced a terrible threat. The burning Reichstag building was the signal that brought every German to his senses.

Why They Hate Us

Why the Muslims Misjudged Us
They hate us because their culture is backward and corrupt.

BY VICTOR DAVIS HANSON
[CIA-Rockefeller Manhattan-Institute -&- MI + Victor Davis Hanson]
Monday, February 25, 2002 12:01 a.m. EST

Since September 11, we have heard mostly slander and lies about the West from radical Islamic fundamentalists in their defense of the terrorists. But the Middle Eastern mainstream--diplomats, intellectuals and journalists--has also bombarded the American public with an array of unflattering images and texts, suggesting that the extremists' anti-Americanism may not be an eccentricity of the ignorant but rather a representative slice of the views of millions.

Egyptian Nobel Prize-winning novelist Naguib Mahfouz reportedly announced from his Cairo home that America's bombing of the Taliban was "just as despicable a crime" as the September 11 attacks--as if the terrorists' unprovoked mass murder of civilians were the moral equivalent of selected air strikes against enemy soldiers in wartime. Americans, reluctant to answer back their Middle Eastern critics for fear of charges of "Islamophobia" or "Arab smearing," have let such accusations go largely unchecked.

Two striking themes--one overt, one implied--characterize most Arab invective: first, that there is some sort of equivalence--political, cultural and military--between the West and the Muslim world; and second, that America has been exceptionally unkind toward the Middle East. Both premises are false and reveal that the temple of anti-Americanism is supported by pillars of utter ignorance.

Few in the Middle East have a clue about the nature, origins or history of democracy, a word that, along with its family (constitution, freedom and citizen), has no history in the Arab vocabulary, or indeed any philological pedigree in any language other than Greek and Latin and their modern European offspring.

How much easier for nonvoters of the Arab world to vent frustration at the West, as if, in some Machiavellian plot, a democratic America, Israel and Europe have conspired to prevent Muslims from adopting the Western invention of democracy! Democracy is hardly a Western secret to be closely guarded and kept from the mujahideen. Islam is welcome to it, with the blessing and subsidy of the West. Yes, we must promote democracy abroad in the Muslim world; but only they, not we, can ensure its success.

Why the Aryan Law

The barriers between Germans and Jews fell as a result of the Enlightenment and the French Revolution. The path to Jewish world domination would take a different direction than pious, observant Jews had expected. Emancipation made it possible to build Jewish dominance through secular means. With the disappearance of racial consciousness, only religious differences seemed to remain. It seemed at the time unjust to give someone a preferred position only because of his religious beliefs, which are an entirely personal matter. At the time, this was tied to a belief in human equality and freedom. It was revolutionary. It shattered the church dogmas that had ruled for centuries and was the foundation of liberal thinking during the last two hundred years. The new goal was humanity itself, and nothing stood in the way of racial mixing. Some had the quiet hope that assimilation would mean the absorption of Jewry. Jewry itself, however, was more than willing to use the opportunities of religious assimilation, which opened the path to all important positions, even to political leadership. As H. Heine said, "baptism was the ticket to European culture." Gradually, an intermixing with the German people developed, particularly in its cultural elite. Foreign blood infiltrated to a degree that we realize only today now that the "Law to Reestablish a Professional Bureaucracy" has exposed numerous sources of foreign blood. This process has greatly accelerated during the last fourteen years.

Today the age of raceless thinking is being displaced by the ideals of human variability. Values are rooted in origin and territory, and each group has a historic mission based on its own unique and eternal values. Such new racial thinking will of course secure the opposition of those who either through faith or reason still believe in the unity of humanity in culture, social order and organization. The Jews will naturally oppose any discussion of race, since the denial of any significant differences between people is the foundation of his infiltration of Western European society. The Jew finds any mention of the racial question as an attack on his current existence. His leading role in every anti-national area is characteristic of his mimicry, and is necessary for his continued existence. That explains the phrase "German citizen of the Jewish faith."

The recognition that the Jew is of a foreign and different race along with the reawakening of German racial consciousness must necessarily lead to a change in the relations between Germans and Jews.

How They Lie

The world knows this picture of our President George Bush.

Countless accurate and genuine photographs are at the disposal of anyone who wants to see them. We all know this face: serious or cheerful-it is always good-natured and full of strength.

 


America's enemies, who hate our freedoms, know that as well. They should know that lies, particularly doctored photographs, are quickly exposed. But that does not stop these professional liars.

This is how they think the President should look.


This is how they see him. This is how they portray him. Every pixel in this image is a lie. Every detail is invented. The blind, stupid hate of intellectual weaklings speaks from this "photo".

No Ambitions

Monday November 11, 2002



WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush marked the U.S. Veterans Day holiday on Monday by vowing to use the full force of the U.S. military against Iraq if needed and said America had no territorial ambitions there. [...]

"The dictator of Iraq will fully disarm, or the United States will lead a coalition and disarm him," Bush, who did his Vietnam era service at home in the Texas Air National Guard, said to a standing ovation from an audience of veterans.

He told a White House ceremony the United States was committed to creating a stable and independent Iraq.

"We have no territorial ambitions. We don't seek an empire. Our nation is committed to freedom, for ourselves and for others. We and our allies have fought evil regimes and left in place self-governing and prosperous nations," he said. Reuters

March 17, 1939


Neville Chamberlains speech at Birmingham:

When I came back after my second visit I told the House of Commons of a conversation I had had with Herr Hitler, of which I said that, speaking with great earnestness, he repeated what he had already said at Berchtesgaden-namely, that this was the last of his territorial ambitions in Europe, and that he had no wish to include in the Reich, people of other races than German.

Herr Hitler himself confirmed this account of the conversation in the speech which he made at the Sportpalast in Berlin, when he said:
"This is the last territorial claim which I have to make in Europe."

And a little later in the same speech he (Hitler) said:

"I have assured Mr. Chamberlain, and I emphasise it now, that when this problem is solved Germany has no more territorial problems in Europe."
