Nazis of the Nineties
By Abid Ullah Jan
01/05/98 - - "The
Frontier Post" -- In his book "The Road to
Serfdom," Friedrich Hayek warned Americans in 1944 that despite
their military war against Nazis, they were travelling the
philosophical and economic road to that the Nazis were travelling.
The Americans ignored that warning. Now along the Americans we are
left with the consequences that are coming home to roost in the
nineties: a government of omnipotent size and power using its power
to kill innocent, peaceful citizens at home and abroad. Today, the
number of its victims is in the millions. But at the end of this
road lie the deadly bombing and concentration camps for the
multitudes.
The name of the new game to be played in the last year of the
twentieth century is "catastrophic terrorism" and it has been made
frightening, not because it conceivably could really happen but
because of what people who choose to dwell on the possibility,
however remote, want to do about it. The anti-biological and
anti-weapons of mass destruction American propaganda and actions are
already duplicating Hitler's prior to World War-II tactics.
Any further terrorism from now onwards would be justified in the
name of combating "catastrophic terrorism," which is defined as
going far beyond what the US Secretary of Defence William Cohen
calls "the conventional type of terrorism." That is the work of
"cowards," he says, who "rejoice in the agony of their victims."
They then "retreat to villages where they hide behind the skirts of
women and the laughter of children and dare you to strike back - and
strike back we will."
"We have to depend upon intervention" he declared on December 8,
1998 and the same views have been expressed by Ashton Carter, John
Deusch and Philip Zelikow, two former high-level Defence Department
Officials, and a former staff member of National Security Council,
in the Foreign Affairs magazine. This propaganda would justify the
US armed attack in any part of the world as "prevention" of the
sensed danger. Afghanistan and Sudan were probably the first victims
of an undeclared Nazi agenda for dominating the world.
The word "Nazi" might offend some Americans but a thorough research
can pale Nazi atrocities by comparison with what the US has done and
is doing in the name of national interest. CIA, with the help of
CNN, BBC and ABC etc., is waging a major propaganda war against the
Muslim world in particular, with the help of capitalist media elite
and some powerful politicians. Their lies were once totally
disregarded by most people, but today, the majority of the people
seem to believe the anti "rouge states" propaganda.
We still have to many people, who do not believe that the present
American attempts are leading to a US world order and total
domination of those nations, which are considered anti-American.
They, like the unbelievers in 1939, will not take the time to
research the American intentions and wrong doings. If they did, they
would see that these warnings are indeed accurate and timely. What
the world fails or refuses to recognise is that the concentration
camps were simply the logical extension of the Nazi agenda and
mind-set. It doesn't matter if there were six million killed - or
six hundred - or six - or even one.
The evil is the belief that the US government should have the power
to sacrifice even one individual for the good of the American
"nation" and "interest." Once this basic philosophical premise and
political power are conceded, innocent people, beginning with few
and inevitable ending in multitudes, will be killed, because "the
good of the nation" always ends up requiring it. The UN and rest of
the world seem to have conceded this authority to the US so that it
freely exercise its Nazi practices.
On the one hand we have the anti-Islam movement, whose main
propaganda themes seem to be that (1) the so-called Islamic
fundamentalism is the root of all evil, (2) weapons of mass
destruction should be kept away from the Islamic and unfriendly
states, and (3) that the US and its allies are the only hope against
the spreading plague of fundamentalism. In Mein Kampf, Hitler's main
propaganda themes seem to be that (1) Jews and Jewry are the root of
all evil, and (2) that Germany was World's best hope against the
spreading communist revolution.
On the other hand, political killings of innocent people could never
happened in the US. But it is happening in American, today. And like
the German people of the 1930s, Americans either refuse to see it
happening, or they rationalise what is happening so that they do not
have to deal with it. For instance, the Branch Davidians at Waco,
Texas: More than eighty peaceful, religious Americans, including
children were gassed and burned. The government officials, just like
the Nazi counterparts, think they did "the right thing." The judge
who presided over the trial of the Waco survivors declared that he
would not permit the government to be "put on trial," and then
slapped forty-year sentences on the survivors.
Or take Randy Weaver, his wife and son of Idaho. First they were set
up on an idiotic gun charge. Then, they sent Weaver a notice of a
wrong trial date. And finally they surrounded his house and
attacked, shooting his son in the back and killing his wife. Then,
at the trial the government fabricated the evidence and committed
perjury. Weaver was acquitted. But no criminal charges have been
brought against the government agents. Well, did the Nazi government
even bring charges against the SS? Did Nazi judges ever punish Nazi
officials for killing the Jews?
From killing of millionaire Donald Scott of California, to nuclear
radiation experiments on soldiers, to drug experiments on the
citizens, to the thousands of arrests and confiscation worth
millions of dollars, the Americans have rationalised what is
happening by saying, "The Feds gotta do it for us." No longer the
government needs to depend only on taxes for its revenue - its
agents just go grab the money and property directly and keep it
regardless of the guilt or innocence of the victims. And it doesn't
end with killings and confiscation. It is also terror - the terror
of IRS agents barging into people's homes, "visiting" them at work
and levying liens on bank accounts and real estate with notice,
hearing or other semblance of due process.
On international level, we observe that Hitler's words have been put
to practice in the form of CNN and BBC. According to Hitler, "the
task of propaganda lies not in a scientific training of the
individual, but rather in directing the masses towards certain
facts, events, necessities, etc., the purpose being to move their
importance into the masses' field of vision." We can see this at CNN
and BBC, as they also stick to a few main points and repeat them
over and over. How many times do they draw out attention to the
"Saddam's weapons of mass destruction," threat of the "Islamic
fundamentalists" and "international terrorism"? Rather than use many
different issues as examples of their propaganda, they concentrate
on a handful of well-known incidents.
Hitler believed that propaganda had to be very simple, so the
average person, with very short attention span, could understand it.
The thesis is: "If any terrorism conceivably could happen, we must
assume that it will, and do something about it now, before it is too
late." This is itself the very essence of psychological terrorism
that the world community is constantly ignoring. The world leaders
and members of the Security Council didn't take any notice of the
remarks made by former chief UN weapon inspector Scott Ritter. Mr.
Ritter said that US officials "prodded inspection teams to return to
Iraq to provoke a crisis to justify bombing."
So the US conducted its mission of mass destruction without any
effective condemnation or solid resistance from any nation.
Justification for the action was the same that Iraq "could
conceivably be a threat some day." Policy of the Nazis of the
nineties is now being established in such a manner that any nation
capable of posing a threat to US interests at any time in the future
is a legitimate target for American attacks. It is the intention of
the Nazis in Washington to so bring the nations into such despair
that they will gladly give themselves over to the new despotism.
They are prepared to give up their hopes and dreams, their religions
and economies for the brief promise of rest from the turmoils placed
before them.
The Nazi regime of the thirties set out to gain control by focusing
on three main areas: regulatory, persuasive and intimidatory.
Regulation is being done through different UN resolution and their
selective enforcement; persuasion is being done through electronic
and print media and intimidation through missile strikes from the
pirate ships. Resolutions passed by the Security Council in the
early nineties have been the catalyst to the transformation of US to
a nazified, and the world as a whole to be its centralised state.
In late thirties, the history was transformed to emphasise the
superiority of German civilisation, with German heroes coming to the
forefront. German failures were either left out of the unit or
blamed on the Jews. The same is happening in the late nineties with
the American heroes giving details of their ruthless bombings on the
CNN with pride in militarism. Like Nazis, the US administration
wants to create a static world society whereby nations act
unquestionably, and do little thinking for themselves.
Look again at the battle for the New World Order. Are we taking time
to study the issue individually before reaching a conclusion? No,
rather we see images on BBC and CNN of the dead bodies in Nairobi
and in the streets of Israel. We see victims in pain and we see next
of kin crying over lost loved ones. We allow our emotions to take
over, and base our opinion on these emotions, rather than sober
consideration. CNN has become the most effective brainwashing tool,
showing no victims of the 400 cruise missiles they way they show
Israeli victims of a single Hizbollah rocket. None of us try to wait
and reach to the root causes of the issue before making a
pro-American mind after seeing these images.
They say "might is right" but this saying cannot be proven in actual
history. "Might" just falls harder when it is "not right." The US
actions may not have surpassed the Nazi atrocities. But that's
today. Desert Fox operation is today. Tomorrow it might be Operation
von Manteufeel against Iran. Operation von Rundstedt against
Pakistan. And what would happen at home in the US during such
crisis. Suppose the operations are not over in a few weeks, but
instead drag on into months and years, with higher taxes, more
controls and...conscription. What happens if Americans, who are
already being taxed 50 per cent of their incomes, now find taxes at
70 or 80 per cent? What happens if hundreds of American students
refuse to be drafted by the president who refused to be drafted?
Will the American government simply agree to lose "international
face" or its federal agencies will turn their massive powers against
the leaders of the revolt and teach the draft-dodging cowards a
lesson in concentration camps. As the whole world will be facing a
catastrophic Third World War, the American people will learn what
the German people learned at a lesser cost: that the omnipotent
state that loves the poor and the needy will remove its velvet glove
and use its iron fist to smash those who interfere with the "good of
the nation."
