By a series of links involving the holocaust of Russians during the Stalin years, I landed up on a blog called ZionCrimeFactory.
Like many such blogs, it conflates being anti-Zionist with being pro-Nazi. While there is no need to exaggerate or embellish what Hitler did, there is a point when these sorts of blogs actually break with reality.
ZCF (which I won’t link) claims that Hitler wasn’t the murderous psychotic of history books.
Fortunately, there was a time in my early teens when I was immersed in WW II history, and I still remember such books as the memoirs of Hitler’s chief of foreign intelligence, SS General Walter Schellenberg.
Schellenberg, a highly-ranked Nazi, describes the eugenicist projects of the Nazis, the arrangement of sexual unions between racially “superior” types, and many other repellent features of the Hitler regime that developed well before the events of the Holocaust.
To portray these developments as simply German nationalism resurgent is delusional.
Psychiatry online has a piece about the Nazi eugenicist program (h/t Henry Makow):
“By 1940, six killing centers designated as euthanasia institutions were established at Brandenburg, Grafeneck, Hartheim, Sonnenstein, Bernburg, and Hadamar. The Hadamar Psychiatric Institute near Wiesbaden, Germany, code-named “Facility-E,” was refashioned for use as a psychiatry euthanasia facility in November 1940. From mid-January 1941 under Dr. Ernst Baumhard’s direction, with a staff of approximately 100, busloads of patients arrived daily at the killing operation. The patients were offloaded, weighed, photographed, and led to the gas chamber disguised as a shower room in the cellar. At least 10,000 mentally ill adults were gassed and cremated at Hadamar in the first 9 months of 1941. In August 1942, after a short break, the facility again functioned as a euthanasia center, using lethal medication doses or starvation. After removal of various organs for medical research, the bodies were buried in F1 located on the hospital grounds. The killing center remained operational until its liberation by American troops on March 26, 1945 (4).
Operation-T4 claimed approximately 200,000 lives. Psychiatric euthanasia institutions served as training centers for the Schutzstaffel (SS) who used the experience to construct larger killing centers (Auschwitz, Treblinka, etc.). The psychiatrist Dr. Imfried Eberl, Treblinka’s first commandant and the only physician to command a death camp, established the facility following his experience as superintendent of Brandenburg Psychiatry Hospital (2).”
Back to ZionCrimeFactory, which sports the German double-eagle on its mast.
Here is typical headline on one of its articles: “Disease infested cockroach Nutanyahoo is a schizoid.”
This is of course the obverse of the racist language of Zionists about Muslims:
“When we have settled the land, all the Arabs will be able to do about it will be to scurry around like drugged cockroaches in a bottle.” Raphael Eitan.”
I don’t know who runs ZFC, but it’s amazing that genuinely anti-Semitic sites thrive and flourish, while reasonable criticism is marginalized.
It makes you wonder if such sites are set up by intelligence (or encouraged) to track potential trouble-makers or if there is really a resurgence of neo-Nazi thinking at the grass-roots.
