The Big Lies

On the Way to World War Three

By Paul Krupp

The war in Iraq appears to be over. Who did not see the pictures of destruction and mayhem on TV. Did Saddam have weapons of mass-destruction? NO! Did he have a Republican army? NO! If he would have had either one of those, it would be pretty certain he would have used them. We now see that it was all a Big Lie. Does the Big Lie end here? NO! The Big Lie will be used again and again.

In the near future against Syria and after that against Iran and, perhaps, after that against Europe. All three Arab nations were once "reliable allies" of the US to be used against one another. Where ever suitable, the US would stir-up hatred for their chosen "enemy at the time". One day Americans would sit with their "friends" and have coffee, the next day they stab them in the back.

It would not be so tragic if "America's friends" would not know how backstabbing Americans can be to get what they feel must be theirs. Even though, perhaps, a small minority of the population is aware that America cannot be trusted as a "friend", politicians in high positions should have learned by now.

"The United States of Israel" have tested many nuclear bombs and is the only country in history which has the dubious honour of unleashing these monstrous weapons upon civilian populations on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nakasagi as a "live" experiment, using real human guinea pigs for their scientific sadistic pleasure. These were two real holocaust experiments without compensation.

During World War One the Germans trusted US-President Wilson's Fourteen Point Program, a peace offer the Germans could not refuse. After four years of war, the Germans were still not defeated and no foreign troops were able to conquer Germany. Both sides sustained heavy losses on men and material. It was a stalemate. To end this senseless war the Germans were magnanimous in their civilized ways and accepted the terms of surrender, which promised them no war-guild, no reparations, no war-crime trials, no loss of territory etc.

Incredible harm was caused by American meddling in the European affairs. In both World Wars American leaders were looking, unprovoked, for trouble and entered both World Wars. Therefore, the US are responsible for the consequences and the conditions. Both times America brought the Europeans more misery and pain than they had before. After the Armistice with the Germans in 1918 all solemn promises of US-President Wilson, which he made in the name of the people of the United States, were broken. If one wants to find an excuse that the intentions of Wilson were good but that he was not capable of coping with the English and French diplomats, then there is only one answer: Do not interfere in matters which you are not able to master and make no promise which you cannot keep! The catchphrase at that time was: "We must make the world safe for democracy!" Or, as the Big Lie stated: "The War to end all Wars."

The historical fact is that, with the exception of England and Scandinavia, most European countries became dictatorships. America created them through naïve, childish and inexperienced policies in world affairs. Self-determination was granted to small Balkan nations, but the tens of millions of Germans in Austria, Sudetenland, Elsass-Lothringen, West Prussia, Danzig etc. were forbidden to reunite with the motherland. The promises that every belligerent nation should care for her own war debts was disdainfully broken. Germany was robbed of all her colonies, large territories were broken lose from the Reich and given as gifts to the neighbor countries, and impossible billions were dictated as reparations. The Versailles outrage weight heavily on the heart of Europe. The Big Lie had won, again.

If all the other nations were allowed, on the basis of Wilson’s Self-Determination of Nations, to join their motherland, the Germans should have the same right. Austria, Sudetenland, German Switzerland, Luxembourg, Elsass-Lothringen, Flanders, Holland, all of which were for more than a thousand years parts of the Holy Roman Empire of the Noble German Nation, and all of which are of Germanic blood and speak the same language, belong together. Instead the victorious powers intend to mutilate the shrunken and overpopulated German living-space and to deport millions to foreign countries, after they exterminated millions.

From this alone, the Nations of the Middle-East should have learned not to trust English speaking nations. Unfortunately, with every change in government there comes a new generation of politicians. The first one is corrupted by the "victors" and the second generation has no idea of what happened before and the vicious circle of the Big Lie can start all over again.

What is a Big Lie? Adolf Hitler, the most misunderstood man in history, for obvious reasons, told the world in his book "Mein Kampf" how a big lie can survive and be successful:

"All this was inspired by the principle – which is quite true in itself – that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying. These people know only too well how to use falsehood for the basest purposes.

"From time immemorial. however, the Jews have known better than any others how falsehood and calumny can be exploited. Is not their very existence founded on one great lie, namely, that they are a religious community, whereas in reality they are a race? And what a race! One of the greatest thinkers that mankind has produced has branded the Jews for all time with a statement which is profoundly and exactly true. He (Schopenhauer) called the Jew ‘The Great Master of Lies’. Those who do not realize the truth of that statement, or do not wish to believe it, will never be able to lend a hand in helping Truth to prevail." --Mein Kampf

US-President Franklin Roosevelt often lied, trying to involve America in European-Wars. In a radio address broadcast to the nation on October 23rd 1940, for example, he gave "this most solemn assurance" that he had not given any "secret understanding in any shape or form, direct or indirect, with any government or any other nation in any part of the world, to involve this nation in any war or for any other purpose." But American, British and Polish documents (mostly released many years later) proved that this "most solemn assurance" was a bold-faced lie. Roosevelt had, in fact, made numerous secret arrangements to involve the U.S. in war. Today we see those parallels going on in the Middle-East.

Of all his speeches, perhaps the best example of Roosevelt's readiness to lie in a big way is his 1941 Navy Day address, broadcast over nationwide radio on October 27th.

A lot had happened in the months preceding that address. On March 11, 1941 Roosevelt signed the Lend-Lease bill into law, permitting increased deliveries of military aid to Britain in violation of U.S. neutrality and international law. In April Roosevelt illegally sent U.S. troops to occupy Greenland. On May 27th he proclaimed a state of "unlimited national emergency," a kind of presidential declaration of war that circumvented a power constitutionally reserved to Congress. Following the Axis attack against the USSR in June, the Roosevelt administration began delivering enormous quantities of military aid to the beleaguered Soviets. These shipments also blatantly violated international law. In July Roosevelt illegally sent American troops to occupy Iceland.

The President began his Navy Day address by recalling that German submarines had torpedoed the U.S. destroyer Greer on September 4, 1941 and the U.S. destroyer Kearny on October 17th. In highly emotional language, he characterized these incidents as unprovoked acts of aggression directed against all Americans. He declared that although he had wanted to avoid conflict, shooting had begun and "history has recorded who fired the first shot." What Roosevelt deliberately failed to mention was the fact that in each case the U.S. destroyers had been engaged in attack operations against the German submarines, which fired in self-defense only as a last resort. Hitler wanted to avoid war with the United States, and had expressly ordered German submarines to avoid conflicts with U.S warships at all costs, except to avoid imminent destruction. Roosevelt's standing "shoot on sight" orders to the U.S Navy were specifically designed to make incidents like the ones he so piously condemned inevitable. His provocative efforts to goad Hitler into declaring war against the U.S. had failed and most Americans still opposed direct involvement in the European conflict.

And so we slide, ever so oblivious about world history, into World War Three. The Big Lie never dies. The Big Lie is comfort for the masses. The Big Lie makes the world blind and obedient. The Big Lie promotes false patriotism driving its victims into delirium every time they hear of "thousands of enemies killed", not knowing why the massacres are being committed. The Big Lie becomes a justifiable reason for mass-murder.

We see on TV young, innocent looking US-soldiers, never taught real culture or history, standing by while hate-filled enemies of Saddam, literally, destroy Baghdad's museums, historic buildings and libraries which housed priceless oriental history over thousands of years. Baghdad, the land of "Sindbad", of "Babylon", of "Thousand and One Night". Such ruthless cultural barbarism was also perpetrated on Dresden and many other cities in Germany by English-speaking "liberators".

The smiling faces of American GIs, watching the sensless destruction, are an indisputable indication of their ignorance and low-level-education, "liberating" nations they never knew existed.

Will America bring "freedom and democracy" to the region? Of course not. The Old Guard has been defeated and the New Guard will move in, more corrupt, more violent than the previous one. American administration will see to that. Oil contracts will be renewed with the new American-Israeli regime, European nations will most likely be cut-off or made more dependent on American willingness to deliver oil to them. It will become a very dangerous situation.

Germany is still suffering under American occupation, having imposed restrictive laws unheard of in genuine democracies, unable to elect a government of their own choosing. German "democracy" rests on Uncle Sam's bayonets. Other "liberated" nations did or will not fare any better.

Oh, not to forget; the "torture-chambers" in Iraq will be just as elusive as the "SIX MILLION".
