But they don't give the explanation. It's almost as if the article is a placeholder for an article, and they haven't written the article yet. IT's literally the title and the first sentence, like it appears here on the thumbnail.
Don't bother clicking.
Of course he doesn't want her. She will outshine him. LOL.
He wants to remain in power. As soon as he is deposed, the law will start going after his finances, and 'lo we will find crime. Lots of it. No-one is above the law, or so we are told.
I did not say Germany, I was referring to totalitarian ideology. So, I was thinking in terms of Desmet's thesis, and the definition of genocide according to the UN charter - that is: 'othering' is the beginning of a slippery slope that ends in the killing of innocents. it's not even really about Nazis at that point. I agree that there is more propaganda than truth. One of those myths is that the West somehow had a hand in freeing the prisoners in question. It was the Soviets. If anything, the West placed punitive sanctions on Germany that cut off all food supplies.
So everyone starved in Germany. My best friends mother WALKED from Hamburg to Rotterdam and got on a boat to England to excape the hunger. AND she had never heard of what was unfolding in the East. So there were plenty of German innocents. In rural Holland, my grandmother smuggled milk, butter and eggs in her stockings to get past German checkpoints, to feed her toddlers. (She also plucked woollen shreds from barbed wire, to spin it and knit it into baby-jumpers, because Germans took all the wool) The Germans there, were insanely hungry.
The starvation was bad, especially for those prisoners in that camp, because they were on the outskirts of the 'great realm' that Germany sought to build - far from any ports or major centres, and anyway there was no food to send. It was a logistics failure - but very much aggravated by the sanctions. We see the skin-and-bones pictures of the freed prisoners. And that's the end as far as I am concerned regarding proof. Any stories of torture, skin lamp-shades, soap, burning bodies with a can of petrol etc. to 'get rid of the evidence' are all bunkum in my opinion. Yes, they were camps. Yes, people died in there. Yes they had communal showers - wtih wooden doors. Get off the grass. My pragmatic solution is that Sanctions are a weapon of War, and should be abolished. Go after the cheating fat-cats by all means - they are breaking laws. But don't starve civilians.
Germany WAS mentioned by the RT article, because the Auschwitz and Birkenau camps were administered by Germans. As it stands, I don't know who to blame for the failure to feed those prisoners in what was labelled as a work-camp - yes the pictures. But I do know that the ideology of cleansing the land of those who speak other languages, or forcing children to learn in a language that is not their mother-tongue, and coming down hard on those who 'don't belong' because gypsies, homos, Ruskis, or Cloth-heads, even though they were born there - is the beginning of something worse.
We are watching that in real time in Ukraine, and in Gaza. I am praying for Trump to stop sanctions and stop sending weapons. Hopefully he keeps the 'Bomb Iran' bunch at bay.
YEs, I found the article interesting on several levels, including the farce of the woke eating their own tails.
I bet the Auschwits museum has tentacles everywhere, ready to pounce on the doubters - that were traditionally people who researched the archives and found conflicting evidence, but this time they are going after someone for believing the myth too much, and relishing it. So that's a turn of events.
YEs, indeed. We must look at all the possibilities. And that's not a Conspiracy Theory, it is part of considering the pathways, and what fits the facts.
So here's a shower-theory - Perhaps it is a desperate attempt from the Crown to change the narrative and news-cycle - their affairs are in total disarray at the moment, and they don't even have the Brown Woman to plaster all over the news to distract us. They tried for Kate, but she has disappeared, and that marriage is on the rocks, so they are trying out Pippa in public. But that is falling flat on its face, So why not go after that blustering American who thinks he has Scottish roots? After all, he is really a Dutch usurper, or something. And anyway, he insulted the now-brown-bread Queen, by walking in front of her, or something. And come to think of it - Trump's policy of rooting out corruption is laying bare some Royal fangs.
A member of the Ukrainian military wore a shirt emblazoned with an Adolf Hitler quote to the concentration camp
[Iam quoting relevant excerpts - see archived link here: https://web.archive.org/web/20240718214202/https://www.rt.com/russia/601287-auschwitz-reports-ukrainian-nazi/]
The Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum will report a Ukrainian neo-Nazi soldier to Polish prosecutors for mocking the victims of the infamous death camp, a museum spokesman told RT on Thursday.
In a series of recent posts on Instagram, Nikita Miroschenko shared photos and reels of him and his girlfriend paying a visit to the death camp in Poland several weeks ago. One of the reels showed the gates of Auschwitz with the infamous Nazi slogan ‘Arbeit macht frei’ with German military music playing in the background, while another showed him wearing a shirt emblazoned with the text “Where we are, there is no place for anyone else” – a phrase attributed to Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.
“If the perpetrator is indeed a Ukrainian soldier, such an act on the grounds of the museum is also an unacceptable lack of respect to the memory of those who liberated the camp in January 1945,” Bartyzel told RT, noting that among the soldiers of the Soviet 60th Army who freed survivors from the camp, “there were both Russians and Ukrainians.”
(So it looks like Poland is waking up. Finally.)
That song ALWAYS gives me goosebumps.
Even when I read the English lyrics I get 'em. Truth.
Also, what a nice surprise for us clandestine Opera-buffs (And yes, it is weird in regular society - I was even accused of listening to Imperialist music by an activist - but WYpepo have no culture, I am sure. I was blasting it in the supermarket carpark, because the stereo in the car is chef's kiss. So i guess I offended the hairdye merchant).
Thank You Mr President.
And the Italians are so the best at lyrical Opera. So to celebrate, here is Pavarotti - in arguably his swan-song masterpiece - Nessun Dorma. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWc7vYjgnTs - Just so we can prime ourselves on the song.
Regarding the NAzi take: Arguably Puccini was part of the old order before the Fascists took over in that part of the world, he lived a life of hunting from his formidable country-lodge and fast cars - which would have painted a target on his back by the Fascists, who loved money. So I spose we can talk about his car-accident in which he nearly died, and it contributed to his early demise? He was raised by Catholic nuns and polished in a Conservatory. So what you hear is Catholic opera that is exploring the excesses of dark humanity.
So, I guess we can argue the difference between Hitler and Mussolini, but I like to point out that this music pre-dates all that nonsense. And on that score (heh), Wagner has been tarred with that brush too. Just because Hitler liked to listen to it. But that Germanic opera genre also pre-dates Nazis.
It is possible he has a fever, and/or is taking painkillers, which will make you sweat as well.
