CANNED KRAUT
By RALPH PETERS
November 6, 2003 -- GEN. Reinhard Guenzel, the head of Germany's Special Forces Command (KSK), got the hobnailed boot on Tuesday. His mistake? He expressed a bit too publicly the sort of Jew-hating sentiment tens of millions of Germans harbor privately. In a letter to a vicious right-wing extremist who sits in Germany's parliament, the general praised the claim that Jews bear at least as much blame for the bloodshed of the Russian Revolution as Germans do for the Holocaust.
Next, we'll hear from Berlin how Jews planned the Holocaust all along. Just as we hear that Israel is the only terrorist state in the Middle East and that Palestinian suicide bombers who butcher women and children are freedom fighters.
Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder's flacks have begun their damage-control effort, insisting that the general's views are rare and isolated. Bull. I lived in Germany for 10 years while serving in the U.S. Army. I speak German. My family's bloodlines are half German. And because of all that, the Germans among whom I lived assumed I shared their bigotry and, eventually, spilled their guts.
It wasn't pretty.
Of course, there are good Germans. Plenty of them. But they live in Philadelphia, not Frankfurt. They or their ancestors all left Germany by 1938. Those who stayed didn't just support Hitler - they loved him and fought for him to the bitter end.
The whopping difference between the Allied occupation of Germany and our occupation of Iraq is that the overwhelming majority of Iraqis welcomed their liberation. We had to force freedom and democracy on the Germans at gunpoint.
They'll never forgive us - no more than they'll forgive Jews for surviving the Holocaust, making a success of Israel against all odds and enriching the United States in virtually every field of human endeavor.
And Germany? In the 19th and early 20th century, German-speaking countries led the world in culture and science. Then they killed or drove away their Jews. The result? Germany's greatest contributions to world culture since 1945 have been Milli Vanilli and Gummi Bears.
What about the charge that the terror in the wake of the Russian Revolution was the work of Jews? Like so many of the Big Lies "made in Germany," there's a tiny grain of truth in it. Yes, Jewish subjects of the Czar played a prominent role in the Russian Revolution. Had I suffered as horribly as Jews suffered under the Romanovs, I'd like to think that I would have been a revolutionary, too.
But Lenin wasn't a Jew. Stalin wasn't a Jew. And just by the way: Hitler, Himmler & Co. weren't Jewish, either, although I fully expect a revisionist historian from Munich or Marburg to argue that they were all secretly manipulated by the International Jewish Banking Conspiracy and guided by the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
In Germany today, there's an utterly repulsive movement - ranging from such dreary literary "stars" as Guenter Grass down to Herr Meier behind the wheel of his Opel - to shift the blame for World War II atrocities away from Germany and to insist that the Allies were equally evil.
Tell it to the ghosts of Auschwitz. And Babi Yar. And Warsaw. And, for that matter, Malmedy.
The German resistance? Almost as big a lie as the denial of the Holocaust. Count von Stauffenberg and his fellow aristocrats, whose inept attempt to kill Hitler with a bomb in 1944 is forever cited as an example of German courage, never lifted a finger against the Nazi regime until the Red Army closed in on their hereditary lands in East Prussia. They weren't fighting for high ideals. They were defending their real estate.
The only thing most Germans regretted was that they lost.
And now we hear that it's high time for an end to German guilt, that the present generation had nothing to do with the Holocaust, that Germany paid its dues for its misdeed and, anyway, it was all a long time ago.
Sorry, Fritz. It wasn't long ago. Holocaust survivors just had a reunion in Washington, D.C. When the wind's just right, we can still smell the smoke of the ovens.
And let's not forget that the Third Reich was supposed to last a thousand years. There's no reason why German guilt shouldn't last 500. That's a 50 percent discount.
Oh, sure, making anti-Semitic remarks is a crime in today's Germany. But anti-Israeli remarks are just fine. You've merely got to choose your words carefully. Don't say the J-word. Talk about "Zionists" instead.
The truth is that we're still so close to the Holocaust that, despite all the books, films and debates, we still have not come to grips with just how much the Germans destroyed. The annihilation of the great Jewish cultures and populations of Europe's heartland may have been the single most tragic loss in human history.
What is to be done?
For a start, don't buy German products. The boycott of French wine sent a strong message, but if Americans stopped buying Mercedes, BMWs, Audis and Volkswagens, it would really hurt.
Anyway, German cars of recent vintage have become a lot like the Germans themselves - grossly overrated and unreliable. Let Gen. Guenzel buy one.

Perters' article was published by the NY Post, which belongs to Murdoch's Zionist propaganda network.
America will be neither safe nor free until Zionism is buried.

Ralph "Peters" is a vile individual spewing lies, and very dangerous lies. Last week or the week before he was bashing France. The covert jew Peters is a tool of the pogrom against White nations; to destroy solidarity and brainwash the American cattle to hate everyone and everything except jews and israel. The vitriol in this article is astounding. What our Masters have brewing is nothing short of Armeggedon. See ya!

I felt the same way when I read this article. He talks about "great" Jewish cultures. He didn't elaborate on that. How come he didn't mention the fact that Hitler and National Socialism was a reaction to the decadent, Chosen-saturated Weimar Republic??
I love it when people like Peters talk about boycotting anything German (and French) simply because those two countries do not support America's idiotic and useless war. It just so happens that before I read this article, I went to the German butcher and bought some items. There is something very special about traditional German culture that is like no other.
As for Philadelphia, Peters should've mentioned the more obvious cities, such as Cincinnati and Milwaukee, which have far more German influence. Regarding Milli Vanilli, the producer was based in Belgium and only one half of the duo was half-German (unfortunately, the product of an American Black/German slut).
Sadly, the Allied victory, coupled with the end of National Socialism made Germany an eternal slave of ZOG, not just in Germany but also in America. So typical of Peters to deny that any of the Bolshevik leaders had Chosenite blood in them. Just another example of Goy Bad Zhid Good.
Of course Peters wants to make the "Holocaust" an eternal sword of human life. It's the only way the Chosenites can function in any society. They find empowerment through an event that happened 60 years ago. What have they contributed since then?? Separation of Church and State, School Desegregation, Public Television, "Civil Rights", The women's and homosexual "movement", Environmentalism, Aids Activism, Political and Gender Correctness, The Nanny State, Schools of [B]lower[/B] learning, and any other ideology that counters traditional Eurocentricism.

Hmm, so back before WWII when the Germans were not taught the virtues of democracy they somehow managed to make use of their minds. After WWII when they were allowed to share the pleasures of the civilized free world they somehow had been dumbed down. Jews made up 10% of the German noble laureates. Not bad for 1% of the population. But that leaves 90% to the rest. The drop from 1945 on can hardly be the result of the disappearance of the jew alone.

:lol: Yeah maybe Peters should read this CNN article about the boycott of French products.

What boycott? U.S. buys Bordeaux
Americans overtake Germans as the biggest spenders on wine from French region. October 31, 2003: 11:05 AM EST
BORDEAUX, France (Reuters) - They might hate French diplomacy, but Americans can't help but splash out on one of France's fine wines.
Despite threatening to boycott French products when Paris opposed the U.S.-led war in Iraq, Americans overtook Germans as the biggest spenders on France's Bordeaux wines in the 2002-03 sales year.
The CIVB, a Bordeaux wine council, reported Thursday a 77 percent rise in the value of the region's produce sold to the U.S. market in 2002-03.
The increase was mainly due to demand for the 2000 vintage, which is regarded as one of the best in recent memory.
The volume of Bordeaux wines sold to the United States also rose, climbing 20 percent in the year to July 31, 2003 -- a period that included the build-up and bitter aftermath of Washington's diplomatic tangle with Paris over Iraq.

This Ralph Peters guy is a turd.
He wants to compare DD214's? Fine, I'll see his time in Germany and raise him an entire [B]BLOODLINE[/B] that goes back to at least before 1690, plus all current family members.
I'll bet he was some homesteader (derogative military term) support puke who had it cushy in Europe and took a decade long vacation while the rest of us were sleeping on rocks. The sonofabitch.
The big difference between him and the rest of the universe is that he hasn't taken the bag off his head and the rest of us have. That, or he keeps the bag on his head because he likes where his paychecks come from. Either way, he's a turd.

Nutty Patriotism
September 25, 2003 America is still a great country, and it would be cruel to judge it by its patriots. I mean the sort of “patriots” who think the way to express your love for this country is to insult other countries.
The events of 9/11 have brought the nastiest jingoists out of the woodwork, and their most toxic venom has been directed against France for opposing war on Iraq. Now that the war has failed in its express aims, the French are hated worse than ever. After all, they have committed the extremely annoying faux pas of being proved right by events. And as the French proverb says, it’s only the truth that really hurts.
Nowhere has Francophobia been more relentlessly childish than in the pseudopatriotic New York Post, where the columnist Ralph Peters has just published his latest tantrum. After a few swipes at the Democrats, he rails against “those, from Paris to Palestine, who hate our freedom, our values, and our success.” He names France’s president, Jacques Chirac, first among “morally bankrupt leaders.” He lumps the French among “Eurotrash” who are “the most notorious sexual predators in the developing world.”
According to Peters, France is “one of America’s ugliest enemies” and Chirac is “a moral pygmy whose lack of scruples is, fortunately, balanced by a lack of courage and power.” As for Chirac’s call for a “multilateral” policy on Iraq,
Stick it where the bum hid his money, Jackie-boy. It was you and your frog princes who ruthlessly destroyed the possibility of a multilateral approach to dealing with Saddam Hussein by refusing to cooperate in any serious efforts to call the regime in Baghdad to account. It was you and your political pimps who split the Security Council in two, with France nobly defending the rights of dictators to die of old age on the Riviera.
It gets even more rabid. The French are “the parasites in Paris.” They have “never stood for human freedom.” In World War II “they didn’t even fight to free themselves.” Their opposition to the American war on Iraq was “reflexive and irrational. They hate us because we’re us.”
So what should we do now? We should “make an example of France for the benefit of those countries that actively strive to frustrate our efforts to spread human rights and freedom. Far from seeking reconciliation with Paris, we should miss no opportunity anywhere, in any sphere, to rub French faces in the merde.”
Peters isn’t through yet.
France should be made to suffer, strategically and financially. The French stabbed us in the back. In response, we should skin them alive. If today’s America is the new Rome, France is a garbage-dump Carthage. And Carthage needs to be broken....
And we should pursue every possible avenue to reduce American purchase of any goods produced by the French. Perfidy must be punished. The French, who would be eating sauerkraut for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if we hadn’t liberated them, need to have their treachery shoved down their throats. “First Baghdad, then Paris,” Peters concludes.
Treachery? Perfidy? Stabbing us in the back? The French were quite open about opposing the war — and about resisting the imperial arrogance shown by the Bush administration, an attitude displayed by Peters himself.
Makes you proud to be an American, doesn’t it? No wonder this country is now feared and loathed around the world. And no wonder more and more Americans are looking for an alternative to George W. Bush.
Not only liberals but conservatives are feeling qualms about the reckless militarism that has passed, far too long, for conservatism. An older and truer breed of conservatism had deep reservations about trying to “spread human rights and freedom” by raw force.
Conservatism is where you find it. When Teddy Kennedy, the archliberal, charged that we were taken to war in Iraq by “fraud,” he was expressing the kind of skepticism about the uses of power we should be hearing from more conservatives. Liberals are also doing the work of conservatives when they denounce the staggering price of this ill-conceived war.
Granted, it’s incongruous (and funny) to see liberal Democrats in green eyeshades fretting about budget deficits like yesterday’s Republicans, but that’s two-party politics for you. When one party goes nuts, you’re stuck with the other one. And if Ralph Peters is any indication, the Republicans have gone nuts.

Puke Peters should be dragged through the streets on a hurdle to be drawn & quartered before a jeering crowd, along with the jew filth who write his checks. Made to watch his severed limbs and tiny genitals burned before him. I'd give anything to be part of that crowd.

Does he include the 600,000 Jews in France (third after the U.S. and Israel) as "Eurotrash" who should be skinned alive?

Would he spare the 350,000 Jews in Paris (fourth after NY, Miami and LA)?
