    What? Are you crazy?

    Nazi Policy and the Catholic Church


    Though Hitler felt a particular urgency and hatred when dealing with Jews and Communists, he viewed the Catholic Church as a pernicious opponent, a deeply-entrenched threat that must be controlled and eventually uprooted from German life in order to establish his promised Thousand-Year-Reich.

    http://www.catholiceducation.org/en/...ic-church.html


    He shows clearly that, in the 1930s, the Anglican perception of Nazism as an evil ideology, and the support given to the persecuted German churches, were primary factors in interpreting the fate of the Jews. It was perhaps understandable that churchmen should come to regard Nazi totalitarianism as an anti-Christian relic of Teutonic barbarism. Such views were useful after 1939 to strengthen the moral justification for war. Secular British propaganda did the same. But leading members of the Church of England, especially Bishop George Bell of Chichester, made a distinction. They did not condemn all Germans as warmongers or racial murderers, but sought to preserve the image of the German churches, especially the Protestants, as being the victims of Nazi anti-Christian violence and oppression.

    Bishop Bell led the way in claiming that there were other Germans who were resisting Nazi totalitarian ambitions, and on whom the task of rebuilding Germany would fall once Nazism was overthrown. The persecution of the Jews was thus first seen as part of the Nazis’ demonic destructiveness. There was every sympathy for these victims of the Nazi system, especially after Kristallnacht. And whereas the British government played down the Jewish persecution out of fear that they would be obliged to do something to assist them, such as opening Palestine as a haven of refuge, the Church of England led a vigorous and continuous campaign, especially in 1942 and 1943, against its own government’s narrow-mindedness.

    Perhaps a review of some of those we have armed and partnered with is in order, for context:

    Saddam
    Osama
    al Qaida
    al Nusra
    ISIS
    the genocidal (Yemen) Wahabist Islamist Saudis who actually did have a role in 9/11
    the genocidal Israelis (Gaza)
    neonazis in Ukraine

    18 Muslims not associated with any country, save for Saudi Arabia, and we attack Iraq, and Afghanistan, and blame all Muslims
    "2Timothy 3 "But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away"

    We have deep ties philosophically in that we both came by our land masses via orchestrated campaigns of removal and genocide.

    6 of the hi-jackers used fake identification so we don't know their nationality.. But, anyone who knows anything about the Me knows that Saudi students have had the fast track to US visas since 1952.. Its far more difficult for people from other Arab states. Naturally they would apply at the US Consulate in Arabia.

    Oh for fuck sake.

    • Israeli arms sales to Europe grew from $724M in 2014 to $1.63B in 2015
    • Although the size of New Jersey Israel is one of the top 10 arms dealing nations in the world
    • Israel produces 60% of all drones worldwide and sells to over 50 countries, at times selling to both sides of a given conflict, and Israel fueled the drones arms race between India and Pakistan

    Palestine is an open air weapons testing and crowd control laboratory with Palestinians being used in the development phase; Gaza is a lab of mass destruction. US super bunker busters were supplied to the Israelis in 2014 and investors stock shot up; war is just business after all.

    The “War in Terror” has been a boon to the industry, you’ve seen what amounts to advertisement in every “news” outlet, we are being whipped up into a frenzy once again. The industry also pioneers crowd control research on the Palestinians, and Israel is involved in the training of American forces and law enforcement. We see this in the militarization of our own police departments, Ferguson was but one example of how our system is prepping to Palestinianize our own population, and in fact Ferguson now has Israeli developed/sold skunk spray post the Ferguson events, although no incidents have yet been reported of use on American streets. It’s pretty clear that the Israeli occupation style power structure is moving toward the same in America; a warehousing of the poor in a post industrial age with diminishing living wage jobs and privatized for profit prisons complete with a return to convict leasing.

    Much of the security monitoring and mass surveillance technologies are also produced in Israel and sold across the globe. “Targeted assassination” was invented in Israel, which Obama was quite fond of. Abu Ghraib torture methods? Israel.

    The US and Israel are not allies. The US and Israeli arms dealers are allies, and war is the business they are both in. We are all collateral damage.

    Why is Europe purchasing Israeli arms?

    Anyway, drones are the aerial platform of the future. Our government gets along swimmingly with Israel's government. It's kind of like the special relationship that your beloved USSR had with North Korea, China, Cuba, Serbia, etc.

    Yeah sorry, I don't see how you've addressed any thing/point you're attempting to respond to. As for NK, let's visit reality.

    We sold North Korea nuclear reactors a mere two years before we placed them on an “axis of evil” list. It was an utterly bipartisan affair, initiated under the Clinton administration and wrapped up under the Bush administration. Turns out we sold them these reactors from a company that Rumsfeld had once sat on the board of directors of. And Bush ponied up US taxpayer funding ($95M) to assist North Korea in wrapping up the deal, so we all helped pay for them, including you assuming you're a tax paying american.
