November 9th, 1938, Pillaging and literally breaking of glass, windows, shops, synagogues, etc by the Nazis in Jewish sections throughout Germany and Austria.  WW2 didn't officially break out till 10 months later Sept. 1st 1939, when Hitler invaded Poland but Kristallnacht was a prelude of what was to come.\n\nMore info at this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kristallnacht

Right now I'm reading this random small journal written by a disgusted American journalist who had been living in Turkey during the time of the Armenian genocide.  A first-hand objective account of what happened!\nSo I just want to plea- please please READ and LEARN about what happened!  So many hidden truths can be uncovered by someone who has a passion for learning.\n\nJudith Herman writes, "After every atrocity one can expect to hear the same predictable apologies: it never happened; the victim lies; the victim exaggerates; the victim brought it upon herself; and in any case it is time to forget the past and move on.  The more powerful the perpetrator, the greater is his prerogative to name and define reality, and the more completely his arguments prevail."\n\nLook at Jay Lifton's book, "The Nazi Doctors" -about the holocaust that includes factual information about the genocide.\nOr Bernard Lewis's "The Emergence of Modern Turkey"\nA petition called "Taking a Stand Against the Turkish Government's Denial of the Armenian Genocide and Scholarly Corruption in the Academy" was signed by over a hundred distinguished writers and scholars including Arthur Miller, William Styron and Raul Hilberg.\nAll these people ARE NOT even ARMENIAN.\nElie Wiesel himself said,\n"I've talked to the President of Turkey about this.  I said to him: 'Why can't you admit what you did to the Armenians?  It would help your society.  It would cleanse you of your guilt.  You would gain something in the eyes of the world."\nLook up Morgenthau.  None of these people are Armenian.  They are all respected educated objective people.\nAnd those online sites?  Who wrote them?\nPerhaps that's why books are so good.  They can give you facts, accounts, and validate them with good solid (not misconstrued) evidence.

It bankrupted Germany and set the stage for WWII but on the other hand Berlin had a huge cultural revolution that included film making. One famous example of this is Nosferatu. It's the first vampire movie, its in black and white. I'm sure you've seen cuts from it on TV.

I just asked a question about the Montauk Project myself.I read the books.They seem to be very technically correct about a lot of the  things they talk about.So who-ever wrote them wasn't an idiot or a nut making up a story. I believe that the things spoken of in the stories are more than likely possible.Whether or not they actually happened as it is written,or if we really do possess this secret technoIogy, I don't know.In a way though,I kind of hope it isn't completely true,because the story of these projects are filled with abuse and inhuman treatment of human beings in the name of scientific developement and whatever else.

that has to be the soviet made katushya rocket launcher( means "little katie" in russian) or nicknamed "stalins organ" cos of the screaching noise it made when it launched the rockets.it was so deadly it could wipe out a whole german infantry unit if fired in barrages.it was so feared by the german troops that if they caught any soviet army officer who was in charge of the launcher they executed him on the spot.the best sight was when stalin amassed thousands of katushyas around berlin and gave the go ahead to storm berlin.it was the best every scene i have ever seen,just amazeing, the sky lit up ,and the noise was so intense even the rats ran away.music to my ears.;-)

World War II was the thing on everyone's mind. The Holocost was taking place. People didn't have televisions in their homes, but they listened to the radio a lot.\n\nCasablanca was the big movie of the year, and Bing Crosby came out with the song "White Christmas" \n\nMany women were working in factories while the men were overseas. Until WWII, most women stayed at home. This was the creation of the undercurrent of the women's movement that came in the 60s.\n\nThe Grand Coulee Dam was finished in Washington state.\n\nFranklin D. Roosevelt was president.\n\nThe Alaska Highway was completed in October of that year. It was 1,523 miles long.\n\nThe brilliant scientist, Stephen Hawking was born that year.\n\nHarvard University chemist Louis F. Fieser invented napalm, a jelly-like mixture of gasoline and palm oils that sticks to its target until it burns out.\n\n\nThe title "United Nations" was first used to describe the allied pact.\n\nThe population of the US was 134,859,553.\n\n\nThe Federal spending:   $35.14 billion\nFederal debt:   $79.2 billion\n\nA first class stamp cost 3 cents.\n\nHow Green Was My Valley wont the Academy Award for Best Picture.\n\nRCA Victor sprayed gold over Glenn Miller's million-copy-seller Chattanooga Choo Choo, creating the first "gold record."\n\nIs this enough?

Paperclips is a very powerful documentary and I agree, EVERYONE should watch it.  It should be a requirement in school.  As should be Schindlers List.  All through my childhood I heard my fraternal grandparents talk about Hitler and the Nazis.  They came to the state not long after he came into power and started persecuting the jews.  While not jewish themselves they had many close friends that were and couldn't stand to watch them suffer.  Knowing this was only the beginning they left Germany and came to the US. If Hitlers name was mentioned around my Grandma tears welled up in her eyes and she called hi the worst evil that had ever happened to mankind.  But by far the most powerful and moving thing I have ever felt was when I was 16.  I was visiting relatives in Europe with my Aunt.  Knowing what I was studying in school that semester we took a side trip and she took me to Auschwitz so that i could truely understand what I was being taught, though we weren't Jewish she wanted me to understand.  As long as I live i will remember that, seeing the ovens and hearing what happened there.  It was almost as if that place screamed in pain still for the evil that was committed there.  No member of our tour group was left dry eyed by the time it was over.  The most vivid memory of it was seeing the ovens then hearing the older lady next to us break down in tears.  Turns out she was dying of cancer and before she departed this earth she had to see where he parents and brothers had perished.\nTo so many of us evil of this enormity is hard to grasp and fathom but every day of our lives we see or hear a small part of it.  Every time you utter a racial slur, make a biggoted remark, show intolerance to anothers religion or belief system you are perpetuating Hitlers legacy.  Because that is what it was, hatered and biggotry and intolerance.  It took 6 million people dying for the rest of the world to understand that lesson, of what that mindframe and and those views can bring about.  And the worst thing we can do is forget it or glorify the kinds of acts or thinking that brought on all of those deaths. Because it wasn't hitler alone that killed them all, it was people who felt the way he did and thought nothing of it.  Look around you and i bet you have met people like that.  Or maybe you are yourself, so none of this has gone away and all the lessons have not sunk in. Six million people, our minds truely can't wrap around that number.  All because of intolerance and biggotry.  As you read through the answers to some of the questions on these pages you can see it here as well.  Intolerance to other peoples view or religions, a supreme and superior attitude because 'I am right my religion is right the rest of you are wrong'.  That attitude is what helped take 6 million people from this earth.  That is what ALLOWED the nazis to do what they did.  They saw those in those camps as wrong and not as good as themselves, that they were superior.  Those camps still exhist today as a reminder of that evil.  And believe me if you walk through the gates you can feel it, you can feel the pain and anguish that went on there.  It screams at you from every inch of it.  6 MILLION people killed because someone else was sure they were right and they were superior.  \n\nThose shows on the History Channel SHOULD upset you!  They should upset you every time you see them and never should you become callous to them or what they show.  That is about the only reminder this world has left of what can come from biggotry and hatered.\n\nNext time, before you write out from your superior point of view and point out how everyone else is wrong, or laugh at an ethnic joke or make fun of someone because they are different think about Hitler and what that kind of mindset can cause...\nSIX MILLION SOULS TAKEN FROM THIS EARTH BECAUSE THE NAZIS THOUGHT THEY WERE BETTER AND KNEW THEY WERE RIGHT!
