Peter Coombs, British soldier, May 4, 1945 letter to his wife after liberation of Bergen-Belsen.
"The fact is that all these were once clean-living and sane and certainly not the type to do harm to the Nazis. They are Jews and are dying now at the rate of three hundred a day. They must die and nothing can save them - their end is inescapable, they are too far gone now to be brought back to life. I saw their corpses lying near their hovels, for they crawl or totter out into the sunlight to die. I watched them make their last feeble journeys, and even as I watched they died."

British filmed the mounds of dead bodies in the camp and that the film was shown in movie theaters around the world as proof of the Nazi crimes against humanity. Anyone who has ever seen the British film of the liberation of Bergen-Belsen will never forget the sight of British bulldozers shoving thousands of emaciated corpses into mass graves. Or the sight of the living dead, the emaciated prisoners whose bodies were nothing but skin and bones.
Thanks to the foresight of Eisenhower, who ordered that every American soldier stationed in Germany should visit the gas chamber at Dachau, today there is scarcely a person in America who has not heard the stories of the Nazi atrocities first-hand from a relative or an acquaintance. However, it was the British who, by bringing their soldiers to Bergen-Belsen to see the ultimate horror so that they could pass their eye-witness information on to future generations, insured that the world now knows the true extent of what happened at Bergen-Belsen.
These crimes could have been avoided
Just as current Anti Islamic dissidents are cursed by modern apologists on the Left, so could Lord Lothian, a Liberal member of the National Government in 1931–2 and an apologist for the Nazis until 1938, describe Hitler's brutalities in April 1937 as 'largely the reflex of the external persecution to which Germans have been subjected since the first war’.
In the words of Gilbert and Gott:
'A sense of guilt drove the appeasers into a one-sided relationship with Germany, in which Germany was always to be given the benefit of the doubt. Hitler's outbursts were not treated as the ravings of a wicked man: they were the understandable complaints of a man who had been wronged.'
'A sense of guilt drove the appeasers into a one-sided relationship with Germany, in which Germany was always to be given the benefit of the doubt. Hitler's outbursts were not treated as the ravings of a wicked man: they were the understandable complaints of a man who had been wronged.'
Hitler knew perfectly well how to play on these fears of war and feelings of guilt, much the same way as the Arab leaders are doing to-day
Looking back on the success of his tactics, in a secret speech to representatives of the German press in Munich on 10 November 1938, he pointed out that:
'The prevailing circumstances have obliged me to speak, for a decade or more, of almost nothing but peace. Only, in fact, by continuously declaring the German desire for peace and Germany's peaceful intentions was I able, step by step, to secure freedom, for the German people and to provide Germany, with the armaments which have, time and time again, always been the essential precondition for any further move.'

From the outset, the appeasers had no valid excuse for doubting the nature of the Nazi régime, but they were determined not to let the facts stand in the way of their theories.We witness the same trend today from the red facists of the left
Hitler became Chancellor of Germany on 30 January 1933. On 6 February he issued a 'Law for the Protection of the German People', enabling him to silence the German press. Within a few days, the Oxford Union had resolved by 275 to 153 votes that it would not 'in any circumstances ... fight for King and Country’.
In a speech on 17 February, Churchill contrasted this with German youth 'burning to suffer and die for their fatherland ... One can almost feel the curl of contempt upon the lips of the manhood of all these peoples when they read this message sent out by Oxford University in the name of young England.'
Now to-day we are beginning to see laws being formed which will limit our freedom of speech,while we see the youth of islam calling for the death of America,death to the infidel,and their leaders are leading the chant
We are now faced with a much larger threat,than what we faced in the thirties
IT IS TIME FOR THE MEDIA AND LEADERS TO FACE UP TO THE TRUTH AND EXPOSE ISLAM FOR WHAT IT REALLY IS

They won't, Shiva. That chance has passed.
All that's left to do it is us.
It is now unavoidable. Devastating War will come. When where and on whose terms is all that's left to be decided.
There is always a chance midnight rider. We live in a world that is informationally interconnected in unprecedented and astounding ways.
The enemy founding father did not anticipate this possibility when he designed his pseudo-religion stealth war ideology.
Many new technologies (game changing ones) are waiting in the wings that will seem like nothing short of magic to the vast majority of humans living on this planet. I suspect that these new technologies are now being "held back" as a result of the uncertainties relating to releasing them in a world under attack by the jihad and its fellow travelers.
There may soon come a time when a series of little buttons are simply pressed, and the entire leadership of the enemy instantly falls dead where they sit or stand.
There are many, many uncertainties in war, and many surprises to come.
Obviously, we cannot RELY on these suspected technologies as a kind of defensive strategy, but we also should not entirely overlook them when it comes to maintaining a sense of positive morale and (dare I say) hopefulness.
