1939 – 1941 WORLD WAR II (From Poland to the Eve of Pearl Harbor)

AUGUST 25, 1939

BRITAIN & POLAND AGREE TO A MILITARY ALLIANCE
The Polish-British Common Defense Pact contains promises of British military
assistance in the event that Poland is attacked by another European country. This
builds upon a previous agreement (March 1939) between the two countries, and also
with France, by specifically committing to military action in the event of an attack.
With this agreement, Zionist-Globalist forces in the UK have trapped the
reluctant Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, as well as France. All that is left to do

now is for Polish-Jewish border thugs, under the protection of Marshal Edward Rydz-
Smigly, to deliberately provoke Germany into action and get the war started. On the

nights of August 25 to August 31 inclusive, there occur many violent attacks on
German civilians as well as German officials and property.

QUOTE TO REMEMBER:

“Chamberlain (speaking off the record to Ambassador Kennedy while golfing)
stated that the America and the world Jews had forced England into the war”.

AUGUST 28, 1939

HITLER ISSUES AN OPEN PEACE LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT OF FRANCE

Now emboldened by Britain, France and, from ‘behind the scenes’, Roosevelt, Poland’s
relentless and murderous abuse of its captive German population reaches the breaking
point. Hitler is prepared for war with Poland but is still attempting to preserve peace,
especially with France and Britain. In an open letter to French President Daladier, Hitler
makes yet another impassioned plea for peace.

Some pertinent excerpts:

“My dear Minister President:
I understand the misgiving to which you give expression. I, too, have never
overlooked the grave responsibilities which are imposed upon those who are in
charge of the fate of nations. As an old front line fighter, I, like you, know the horrors
of war. Guided by this attitude and experience, I have tried to remove all matters that
might cause conflict between our two peoples.
As you could judge for yourself during your last visit here, the German people, in the
knowledge of its own behavior held and holds no ill feelings, much less hatred, for its
one-time brave opponent. On the contrary, the pacification of our western frontier led
to an increasing sympathy.
I am deeply convinced that if, especially, England at that time had, instead of starting
a wild campaign against Germany in the press and instead of launching rumors of a
German mobilization, somehow talked the Poles into being reasonable, Europe today
and for twenty-five years could enjoy a condition of deepest peace. As things were, Polish public opinion was excited by a lie about German aggression.The Polish government declined the proposals. Polish public opinion, convinced that England and France would now fight for Poland, began to make demands one might possibly stigmatize as laughable insanity were they not so tremendously dangerous.
At that point an unbearable terror, a physical and economic persecution of the
Germans although they numbered more than a million and a half began in the
regions ceded by the Reich.
May I now take the liberty of putting a question to you, Herr Daladier: How would
you act as a Frenchman if, through some unhappy issue of a brave struggle, one of
your provinces severed by a corridor occupied by a foreign power? And if a big city –
let us say Marseilles – were hindered from belonging to France and if Frenchmen
living in this area were persecuted, beaten and maltreated, yes, murdered, in a
bestial manner?
I see no way of persuading Poland, which feels herself as unassailable, now that she
enjoys the protection of her guarantees, to accept a peaceful solution. If our two
countries on that account should be destined to meet again on the field of battle,
there would nevertheless be a difference in the motives. I, Herr Daladier, shall be
leading my people in a fight to rectify a wrong, whereas the others would be
fighting to preserve that wrong.”

QUOTE TO REMEMBER

“German men and women were hunted like wild beasts through the streets of
Bromberg. When they were caught, they were mutilated and torn to pieces by the
Polish mob. . . . Every day the butchery increased. . . . Thousands of Germans fled
from their homes in Poland with nothing more than the clothes that they wore..
On the nights of August 25 to August 31 inclusive, there occurred, besides
innumerable attacks on civilians of German blood, 44 perfectly authenticated acts
of armed violence against German official persons and property.”

William Joyce, Irish defector to Germany

AUGUST 31, 1939

‘THE GLEIWITZ’ (& other) BORDER ATTACKS / JEWISH-POLISH GUERILLAS ATTACK GERMAN RADIO STATION

Overestimating their strength, underestimating German strength, and believing that
France and the UK would now back him, Marshal Smigly allows Polish-Jewish
partisan terrorists to cross the border and attack a German radio station in Germany.
It is actually the latest in a string of deliberate border instigations against
Germany.
The “Poles” then broadcast a message (in Polish) urging others to take up arms and
start killing Germans. German police quickly arrive and retake the station, killing one
of the Red terrorists. Jewish Red terrorists, their Polish government protectors,
and their Globalist-Zionist masters have picked a fight with Germany!
Modern fake historians claim that the Gleiwitz incident was staged by Germans
dressed as Polish terrorists. But as is the case with the Reichstag Fire conspiracy

theory, they offer no evidence to support this oft-repeated lie, (beyond a forced
“confession” obtained after the war) to support this theory – a theory that ignores the
outrageous and repeated pattern of provocations directed at Hitler’s Germany ever
since 1933, the numerous border incidents, the murders of Germans and also Hitler’s
sincere attempts to negotiate a resolution to the Corridor and Danzig controversies.

QUOTE TO REMEMBER
“I lived in Germany during the 1980’s when many people who lived during the war
were still alive. I sought out anyone who lived near Poland in 1939 and was lucky
enough to meet several people. One was a customs official who said it was so bad on
the border they were armed and also had grenades in their office ready for attacks.
Another told me his farm animals were often stolen by Polish (Jewish?) terrorists.
Another told of his niece being raped by a Pole (Jew?) who crossed the border. He
told me in 1940 they caught the man and showed me a copy of the death order signed
by Heydrich, in which he ordered the man be put to death.
This is just one of many stories told to me by German civilians who witnessed these
border incursions just like had happened in 1919-1928. One thing many people fail to
see is that Poland openly attacked Germany right after World War I, which led to
many border battles. Once Germany started pressing Poland to work out a solution
to the corridor, the attacks started again. .And one thing that is clear to me is that
Germany did not make up for these attacks.”

–George H. Ohio, USA

Hitler has had about all he could take from Poland.

QUOTE TO REMEMBER

“This (Declaration of War) is the fault of the anti-appeasers and the fucking Jews.”

British Duke Arthur Wellesley (5th Duke of Wellington) was the great grandson of the famous Duke of Wellington who defeated Napoleon.

SEPTEMBER 7-16, 1939

THE SAAR OFFENSIVE / FRANCE INVADES GERMANY
The Saar Offensive is a French ground invasion into Saarland, Germany. The large
scale assault is to be carried out by 40 divisions and 40 tank battalions. According to
the Franco-Polish military convention, the French Army was to gain control over
the area between the French border and the Siegfried Line of German defense. Much
to the dismay of the fools in Poland, the full 40-division all-out assault never materializes. The empty promises of empire were just an Allied trick just to get stupid Marshal Smigly to start the fight with Germany.
But a limited invasion and occupation of Germany’s Saar region does indeed occur.
On October 16 & 17, the German army, now reinforced with troops returning from
the Polish campaign, conducts a counter-offensive which retakes the lost territory
from the invading French. In liberating what the French had invaded, the Germans
lose 196 soldiers, plus 114 missing and 356 wounded. Hitler continues to plea for peace.
So you see, dear reader, the Anglo-French Allies not only instigated the war, and
not only were the first to declare war, they also drew first blood upon Germany.

SEPTEMBER 17, 1939

SOVIET UNION INVADES POLAND FROM THE EAST / ALLIES SAY NOTHING

With the Polish army being routed by the advancing Germans in the west, Stalin
cleverly decides to break the Soviet-Polish Non Aggression Pact of 1932. Poland is
stabbed in the back as Soviet forces pour in from the east. The advancing Reds carry
out massacres, the most infamous being the Katyn Forest Massacre in which 10,000
Polish Army officers are shot in the head.
Other than the pre-Versailles German areas which Germany reclaims, the Soviets will
eventually take all of Poland. In a shocking double-standard, the anti-German,
FDR, France & the UK remain oddly silent about this brutal Soviet aggression.
Poland appeals to Britain and France for help, citing the Poland-British
Defense Pact just signed a few weeks ago. The Polish ambassador in London
contacts the British Foreign Office pointing out that clause 1(b) of the agreement,
which concerned an “aggression by a European power” on Poland, should apply to
the Soviet invasion. The UK Foreign Secretary responds with hostility, stating that it
was Britain’s decision whether to declare war on the Soviet Union.
The truth is, the Allies don’t give a rat’s ass about Poland. They only used its stupid
ultra-nationalist leader (who by now has shamelessly abandoned his troops and fled
to Romania), to instigate Hitler so that they could have their war. The horror that
Poland will suffer under Soviet occupation is now Poland’s problem, not the Allies’.

SEPTEMBER 17, 1939

GERMANY DEFEATS POLAND / DANZIG AND ALL OF PRUSSIA REUNITED WITH THE REST OF GERMANY

Within a few weeks, the German-Polish War is already over. Hitler receives a hero’s
welcome upon his arrival in liberated Danzig. Hitler addresses the Danzig crowd:
“No power on earth would have borne this condition as long as Germany. I do not
know what England would have said about a similar peace solution (Versailles) at its
expense or how America or France would have accepted it.
I attempted to find a tolerable solution – even for this problem. I submitted this
attempt to the Polish rulers in the form of verbal proposals. .You know these
proposals. They were more than moderate. I do not know what mental condition the
Polish Government was in when it refused these proposals. …….As an answer,
Poland gave the order for the first mobilization. Thereupon wild terror was initiated,
and my request to the Polish Foreign Minister to visit me in Berlin once more to
discuss these questions was refused. Instead of going to Berlin, he went to
London.”
Hitler rightfully mocks Smigly as a coward:
“The Polish Marshal, who miserably deserted his armies, said that he would hack the
German Army to pieces.”

OCTOBER, 1939 – MAY, 1940

HITLER PLEADS FOR PEACE WITH BRITAIN & FRANCE
The German-Polish War has ended quickly. The Allies never had any intention of
helping Poland. The French actually invade Germany on September 7th,
advancing 8 km before stopping. The quiet period between the end of the Polish
war until May 1940, is dubbed by a U.S. Senator as “The Phony War.”
During this time, Hitler pleads for the Allies to withdraw their war declarations.
Towards France he declares:.“I have always expressed to France my desire to bury
forever our ancient enmity and bring together these two nations, both of which
have such glorious pasts.” To the British, Hitler says: “I have devoted no less effort to the achievement of Anglo-German friendship. At no time and in no place have I ever acted contrary to British interests….Why should this war in the West be fought?”
Hitler’s pleas for peace are ignored as the allies begin to mobilize more than
2,000,000 troops in Northern France. Plans are openly discussed to advance
eastward upon Germany, via “neutral” Belgium and Holland, as well as establishing
operations in “neutral” Norway and Denmark, with or without their consent.

NOVEMBER 4, 1939

FDR REPEALS THE NEUTRALITY ACTS

The Neutrality Acts prohibited the United States from selling arms to warring
nations. The purpose of these acts was to prevent the U.S. from again becoming
involved in Europe’s wars.
Throughout the 1930’s, FDR and his Zionist advisor Bernard Baruch (who had also
been an advisor to Woodrow Wilson), anticipating a new war against Germany, had
unsuccessfully tried to amend the previous Neutrality Acts. Soon after Germany
and Poland began fighting, FDR again urges Congress to repeal the Neutrality Acts.
In November of ’39, a new Neutrality Act is passed. The sale of arms to the UK is
now legal. The scheming FDR has taken a big step towards involving America in a
war that his Zio-Globo handlers have long been agitating for.

APRIL 9, 1940

GERMANY IS FORCED INTO PRE-EMPTIVE, LIMITED OCCUPATIONS OF NORWAY & DENMARK

The Allied plan of attack is to disrupt Germany’s iron ore imports from Sweden by
illegally mining Norwegian waters, and then occupying the important Norwegian port
of Narvik. Plans are also made for imposing a base of operations in Denmark,
Germany’s neutral neighbor to its north.
A Norwegian politician named Vidkun Quisling confirms the existence of these Allied plots.

(Operation Wilfred and Plan R 4). Sympathetic to Germany, and not wanting his country to become a battlefield, Quisling informs Hitler of the Anglo-French plot to wage war from the two Scandinavian countries.

Germany moves quickly to secure the Norwegian port of Narvik just before the
British can place their mines, and also to occupy Denmark. German diplomats assure
the leaders of both Scandinavian nations that Germany seeks neither conquest nor
interference in internal affairs. Life under limited German occupation goes on
quietly for the Scandinavians during the war. Quisling’s name is now a dictionary
word in the English language, synonymous with “traitor” – a totally unfair characterization.

MAY 10, 1940

GREAT BRITAIN INVADES NEUTRAL ICELAND

The British invasion of tiny, neutral Iceland is code named “Operation Fork.” It
begins on May 10, 1940 (the same day that Churchill comes to power) with British
troops disembarking in the Capital City of Reykjavik.

The British quickly move inland, disabling communications networks and securing landing locations.

The government of Iceland protests the violation of their neutrality, but to no avail.
This force is then subsequently augmented, to a final strength of 25,000.

The recently thwarted British occupations of neutral Denmark and Norway, and the successful
occupation of neutral Iceland, show that Rothschild Britain is the true aggressor of the coming war in Western Europe. Although FDR, up until December 1941, promises that America will remain non-belligerent, 30,000 US troops will relieve the British and occupy Iceland in spring of 1941.

MAY 10, 1940

WINSTON CHURCHILL BECOMES UK’s PRIME MINISTER
With the preparations for war in place, the reluctant warrior Neville Chamberlain is
finally pushed aside as the lunatic, drunken, cigar chomping Winston Churchill takes
his place. Churchill’s record of treason already includes the World War I sinking of
the Lusitania (when he was Lord of the Admiralty).
Churchill, and his wealthy London (and New York) Zionist backers, have been
advocating for war with Germany for the past 6 years. His warmongering had made
him an outcast in British politics. But now, with the Zionist press of Britain
misrepresenting the facts surrounding the German-Polish War, Churchill is portrayed
as some sort of wise prophet.
Hitler knows very well who Churchill is, and who he works for. He had even referred
to Churchill in past speeches as part of Britain’s “government of tomorrow”. With
Chamberlain gone and Churchill now in power, Hitler now knows for certain that
“the Phony War” is about to become very real.

QUOTE TO REMEMBER:

“I emphasized that the defeat of Germany and Japan and their elimination from
world trade would give Britain a tremendous opportunity to swell her foreign
commerce in both volume and profit.”

– Bernard M. Baruch

MAY 10, 1940

GERMANY LAUNCHES PRE-EMPTIVE INVASION OF ‘LOW COUNTRIES’

Hitler’s pleas for peace have been repeatedly ignored as 400,000 British and at least
2,000,000 French troops have massed in northern France. The massive invasion
of Germany’s industrial Ruhr region is to come through the ostensibly “neutral”
League of Nations member states of Belgium and The Netherlands (Holland), whose
governments are under intense Allied pressure to allow safe passage for the planned
Allied attack on the bordering Ruhr region of Germany.
Again, Hitler’s hand is forced. On the same day that Churchill comes to power, and
that the UK invades Iceland, as an act of national self-defense, Germany takes the
fight to the Allies before they can bring it to German soil and reinstitute a 2nd
Versailles Treaty. In a stunning advance westward, the German Blitzkrieg quickly
overtakes the smaller nations (known as the Low Countries because of their
geography) and pushes the Allied armies into a full retreat towards the beaches of
northern France.
The Globo-Zionist press, as well as today’s history books, portrays the Blitz as “the
Nazi conquest of Holland, Belgium, and France.” But the menacing presence of
the massive Allied force on Germany’s industrial frontier is conveniently
ignored, as is the undeniable and extensive collaboration between the “neutral”
Low Countries and the Allies.

MAY 10, 1940

ALLIES BOMB GERMAN TOWN OF FRIEBURG / 20 CHILDREN KILLED IN A PLAYGROUND

The medieval and non-strategic German town of Freiburg is located just 20 miles
from the French border. In the opening hours of the war in the west, new Prime
Minister Churchill and his French allies waste no time in murdering civilians. About
60 bombs are dropped on or near Freiburg; killing 50 civilians including 20 children
who were playing outside. This was the first bombing of civilians in World War II.
In order to whitewash this horrific deed from the pages of history; and to maintain the
historical myth that it was Germany that initiated the bombings of civilians; court
historians have long promoted the ridiculous lie that the Germans accidentally
bombed their own town and then blamed the event on the Allies in order to cover up
the mistake. Subsequent terror bombings of German civilians will dispel any doubt
that Churchill was indeed capable of deliberately exterminating civilians.

MAY, 1940

HITLER TRIES FOR PEACE THROUGH A SWEDISH CHANNEL
After having just defeated the French and British invaders, Hitler, via a Swedish third
party, proposes generous peace terms to Britain. The Germans contact the British
ambassador in Sweden, Victor Mallet, through Sweden ́s Supreme Court Judge
Ekeberg, who is known to Hitler ́s legal advisor, Ludwig Weissauer. Hitler ́s peace proposal demands nothing of Great Britain and implies that the states currently occupied by Germany would be de-occupied; as Germany ́s occupation was only due to the present war situation. But Winston Churchill is not interested in peace. The offer goes nowhere.

MAY 25-28, 1940

“THE WAR CABINET CRISIS” / CHURCHILL AND LORD HALIFAX DIVIDED OVER ITALIAN PEACE MEDIATION

Giuseppe Bastianini, the Italian ambassador in London, requests a meeting with
British Foreign Secretary Lord Halifax to discuss Italy’s neutrality. Halifax meets
Bastianini later that afternoon. The discussion soon moves to that of Italian mediation
between the Allies and Germany.
Bastianini reveals that the goal of Italian leader Benito Mussolini (Hitler’s close ally)
is to negotiate a settlement “that would not merely be an armistice, but would
protect European peace for the century.” Halifax responds very favorably to
the idea and takes it to the British War Cabinet.
The following morning Halifax reports to the War Cabinet, summarizing his meeting
with Bastianini and urging his colleagues to consider Italian mediation. Again,
Churchill would have none of it!
For several days, Halifax continues to press for the Mussolini mediation. In an
apparent attempt to placate Halifax, Churchill states that he doubts whether anything
would come of an approach to Italy, but that the matter was one which the War

Cabinet should consider. But Churchill is lying to Halifax. Never once did
Churchill even consider Mussolini’s offer to mediate peace between Britain and

Germany. The matter eventually dies after Churchill outmaneuvers the peace-
seeking Halifax. The conflict is known as ‘The War Cabinet Crisis’.

MAY 27 – JUNE 4, 1940

AS A SIGN OF FRIENDSHIP, HITLER ALLOWS THE ALLIED ARMIES TO ESCAPE AT DUNKIRK

After Germany’s stunning advance, the Allies are trapped on the beaches of Dunkirk,
France. The entire force can be easily captured, but Hitler issues a halt order.
As a show of good faith towards his western tormentors, Hitler believes that the
British will be more likely to make peace if they can escape with their dignity intact.
A massive boat lift involving British fishermen ferries the troops across the English
Channel back to England. The Globalist Press maliciously spins Hitler’s gracious act
as a “miraculous escape right under Hitler’s nose.”
The cigar-chomping, Zionist-owned, alcoholic Winston Churchill vows to keep
fighting as he frightens the British people with tales of imminent German invasion.

QUOTE TO REMEMBER:

“He (Hitler) then astonished us by speaking with admiration of the British Empire,
of the necessity for its existence, and of the civilization that Britain had brought
into the world. ….He compared the British Empire with the Catholic Church
saying they were both essential elements of stability in the world. He said that all he
wanted from Britain was that she should acknowledge Germany’s position on the
Continent. The return of Germany’s colonies would be desirable but not essential,
and he would even offer to support Britain with troops if she should be involved in
difficulties anywhere.”

German General von Blumentritt

JUNE, 1940

SOVIET UNION INVADES 4 COUNTRIES AT THE SAME TIME! / LATVIA, LITHUANIA, ESTONIA, & EASTERN ROMANIA

With the eyes of the world focused on events in Western Europe, Stalin continues
to expand his Evil Empire. The Reds annex the tiny defenseless Baltic states of
Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia. Stalin also annexes parts of eastern Romania.
The Soviet Union has now invaded 6 countries in just 9 months! Yet, the western
Globalists only remain obsessed with attacking Germany, whose leader, just like the
Kaiser had two decades earlier, continues to plead for peace.

JUNE, 1940

AFTER GERMANY’S DEFEAT OF THE ALLIES, MUSSOLINI’s ITALY JOINS THE WAR

Upon seeing Germany’s stunning victory in 1940, Benito Mussolini, the
opportunistic, ego-driven Leader of Italy, ends Italy’s neutrality and allies himself
with Germany. He declares war upon France (which was already beaten and
occupied) and also upon the UK, (which is already being chased out of Europe at
Dunkirk).
Unlike Hitler’s defensive war, Mussolini dreams of conquest, hoping to restore a new
Roman Empire in North Africa. But his reckless adventures will prove to be very costly to Hitler. In August of ’40, Italy occupies British Somaliland in East Africa. In
September, Italy invades Egypt, which has been occupied by the British since a 1936
Treaty to protect the Suez Canal.
In picking a fight with Britain, Mussolini bites off far more than the unimpressive
Italian military can chew. The superior British land and naval forces dominate their
Italian adversaries, giving Churchill a potential continental opening to invade a now
non-neutral Italy from North Africa.

JUNE 22, 1940

NEW GOVERNMENT OF FRANCE MAKES PEACE WITH HITLER
As the fleeing French government collapses, the Germans enter undefended Paris on
June 14 ‘ 40. The new government is headed by the World War I hero Marshal
Philippe Petain, who agrees to make peace with Germany.
Unlike the brutality of the Versailles Treaty, the terms of this Armistice are very
light, requiring only that Germany continues to occupy northern France as a
defensive measure against a British invasion of the continent. The new French
government has its administrative offices in the southern city of Vichy. Other than
the strategic occupation in the north, France remains a sovereign nation. Life in
occupied France goes on quietly. German soldiers establish an excellent reputation
for good behavior, and charm with the French ladies.
Meanwhile in the UK, Churchill and French General Charles De Gaulle fume over
Marshal Petain’s refusal to continue fighting. Hitler wants Petain to ally his country with Germany, but Mussolini’s war declaration upon France leaves such a bad taste
in the mouths of Frenchmen that they cannot possibly join a German-Italian alliance.

JUNE 24, 1940

WORLD JEWISH CONGRESS CLAIMS THAT 6 MILLION JEWS ARE DOOMED IF GERMANY WINS THE WAR

Sing it Four Tops! – “It’s the same, old song, with a different …..

Not a single Jew has even been interned and Hitler is still pleading for peace; yet
the “Holocaust” and the “6 million” have already been established!

JULY, 1940

CHURCHILL LAUNCHES AERIAL BOMBARDMENT CAMPAIGN AGAINST GERMAN CIVILIANS

With British ground troops having been chased off of the European mainland,
Churchill and his London/New York Banking Bosses can only continue the fight over
air (and sea). The British Royal Air Force is ordered to bomb civilian areas.
Churchill hopes to provoke a similar response from Hitler so that he and FDR can
point to “German bombing of civilians.”
In a July memo to the Minister of UK Air Craft production, Churchill writes:
“When I look around to see how we can win the war I see that there is only one sure
path. We have no Continental army which can defeat the German military power..
…there is one thing that will bring him (Hitler) down, and that is an absolutely
devastating, exterminating attack by very heavy bombers from this country upon
the Nazi homeland. We must be able to overwhelm them by this means, without
which I do not see a way through.”

The notorious drunk will bomb German civilian areas seven times. But Hitler refuses to do the same. German bombers are under strict orders to limit their attacks to military/industrial targets only…Finally, in September; Hitler is forced to declare that any more British bombings of civilian areas will be met with a similar response.
When the German Air Force drops its first bombs on British civilian areas, the world
press declares “Germany Bombs Civilians.”
As he had done with the orchestrated sinking of the Lusitania in 1915, Winston
Churchill has again deliberately brought on the deaths of innocent men, women, and
children in order to achieve political goals.

JULY 20, 1940

HITLER DROPS ‘PEACE LEAFLETS’ OVER LONDON!
With Germany in total control of the continent and the war situation, Hitler responds
to Churchill’s bombs by dropping mass quantities of leaflets over London. The 4-
page broadsheet contains an English language summary of Hitler’s recent speech
before the Reichstag. The speech is entitled, “A Last Appeal to Reason”, in which
he closes with a final appeal for peace:
“In this hour I feel it to be my duty before my own conscience to appeal once more
to reason and common sense in Great Britain as much as elsewhere. I consider
myself in a position to make this appeal, since I am not the vanquished, begging
favors, but the victor speaking in the name of reason. I can see no reason why this
war must go on. I am grieved to think of the sacrifices it will claim.
Possibly Mr. Churchill again will brush aside this statement of mine by saying that
it is merely born of fear and of doubt in our final victory. In that case I shall have
relieved my conscience in regard to the things to come.”
The British respond to Hitler’s sincere plea with mockery, threats, and more bombs.

‘AXIS’ NATIONS OF GERMANY, ITALY, & JAPAN SIGN ‘TRI-PARTITE PACT / HOPE TO KEEP THE U.S. OUT OF THE WAR

Germany and Japan are suspicious of FDR’s true intentions. To discourage American
military involvement in either Germany’s war with Britain, or Japan’s unrelated war
with China, the two nations and Italy sign the “Tripartite Pact”.

Japan, Germany, and Italy agree to assist one another with all political, economic and
military means if one of the contracting nations is attacked by a nation at present not
involved in the European War or in the Japanese-Chinese conflict. The hope is that
this pact will keep America out of the war. Ironically, the defense pact will end up
actually facilitating FDR’s scheme to draw America in.

OCTOBER, 1940

UK PROMISES ‘NEW WORLD ORDER’ TO JEWS AFTER WAR
Germany is in total control of the European war situation. As they had during their
losing days of World War I, British politicians reach out to international Jewry for
help. During World War I, Britain’s ‘Balfour Declaration’ promised Palestine to the
Jews in exchange for bringing about U.S. entry. Now, Lord Arthur Greenwood’s
Declaration’ offers them a “New World Order”. Greenwood makes an amazingly
prophetic statement, ‘When we have achieved victory, and we assuredly shall…”
But there is no chance of British victory unless the U.S. can be dragged into the
conflict. Therefore, Greenwood must already suspect that the U.S. will enter the war
(which it does 14 months later). The promise of a ‘New World Order’ is clearly
intended to further encourage American Jewish support for entering the war.
Greenwood promises: “In the rebuilding of civilized society after the war, there
should and will be a real opportunity for Jews everywhere to make a distinctive and
constructive contribution.”
In other words, Lord Greenwood is saying: “Get America in and we’ll give you a say
in Europe’s affairs after the war!” Greenwood’s imperialist ‘dance with the Devil’
will prove fatal. After the war, Britain ends up broke and loses her Empire.

“….Arthur Greenwood member without portfolio in the British War Cabinet
assured the Jews of the United States that when victory was achieved an effort would be made to found a New World Order”

OCTOBER 28, 1940
ITALY INVADES GREECE

Italy had occupied tiny Albania in the spring of 1939. Mussolini now turns his
ambitions towards Greece. Greece has good relations with Germany, but Mussolini
wants to claim the Ionian Islands. Italy’s invasion of Greece is completely unrelated
to Germany’s war and creates unexpected problems for Hitler.
The Greeks repel the invasion. The British then offer to send troops to assist Greece.
Churchill now has an opening on the European mainland from which he can
move north towards Germany and eastward towards Romania and the crucial
oil fields which supply Germany.

NOVEMBER, 1940

AFTER LYING ABOUT HIS INTENTIONS, FDR WINS RE-ELECTION OVER GLOBALIST STRAW-MAN WENDELL WILKIE

Throughout the Election year of 1940, nationalist Republicans warn that FDR is
plotting to bring the US into war. Because the public is strongly opposed to entry in
another war, FDR reassures voters that the “isolationists” are misrepresenting his
intentions. During the campaign, FDR gives his famous “Again and again” speech:
“I say to you mothers and fathers and I shall say it again and again and again.
Your boys will not be sent into any foreign wars.”

The Globalist wing of the GOP (Republican Party) hijacks the nominating process
and puts up an unknown patsy, an “ex-Democrat” named Wendell Willkie to run
against FDR. Many Republicans are shocked when the GOP (supported by the
media’s hype of Willkie) anoints a New York lawyer who has never held any office.
Willkie runs a half-baked campaign and loses badly. FDR is elected to an
unprecedented 3rd (and later a 4th) term. Afterwards, FDR gives Willkie a job as an
Ambassador. In 1943, Willkie publishes a book entitled: One World.

NOVEMBER, 1940

THE VATICAN PRESENTS HITLER’S PEACE PROPOSALS TO BRITISH OFFICIALS

As far back May of 1939, as revealed by the front page of the New York Times, the
Vatican had been trying to mediate between Britain and Germany. Hitler was ready
and willing to talk peace at all times. It was the British who said “no”.
The peace-seeking Vatican and peace-seeking Germany remained in contact as the
war raged. The following excerpt from Martin Allen’s ‘Himmler’s Secret War’
describes a meeting held in Spain between the Papal Nuncio and British officials
Hoare and Hilgarth; and the latest peace offer from Hitler:
“The nature of the concessions that the German Fuhrer was prepared to make in
order to obtain peace with Britain must have astounded the men at the head of SO1.

This was not even a deal worked out through a process of hard negotiation. It was
Hitler’s opening gambit….an offer so generous and pragmatic that it would be very
tempting to anyone who genuinely wanted peace.
His (Hitler’s) offer of such remarkable concessions was an extremely threatening
development. Should the terms become public, it had the potential to render British
resolve to stand firm against German aggression to a shuttering halt.”

FEBRUARY, 1941

GERMANS ARRIVE IN AFRICA TO BAIL OUT THE ITALIANS
The first units of the German ‘AfrikaKorps’ arrive to rescue the collapsing Italian
war effort in February of 1941. General Erwin Rommel, known as the Desert Fox,
commands the German force in North Africa. Rommel will eventually establish the
upper hand in Africa, but this diversion of manpower and resources to Africa proves
to be a costly hindrance for Germany.

U.S. ZIONIST THEODORE KAUFMAN PUBLISHES ‘GERMANY MUST PERISH!’ / CALLS FOR EXTINCTION OF GERMAN RACE!

‘’Germany Must Perish!’ is a 104 page booklet published by an American Zionist
businessman named Theodore Kaufman. Kaufman calls for the complete
extermination of the German people through forced sterilization and total

dismemberment and reapportionment of German territory. The murderous hate-
fest starts out in the very opening lines of Germany Must Perish as follows:

“This dynamic volume outlines a comprehensive plan for the extinction of the
German nation and the total eradication from the earth, of all her people. Also
contained herein is a map illustrating the possible territorial dissection of Germany
and the apportionment of her lands.”
Incredibly, at a time when America is supposedly “neutral”, the hateful book is
actually reviewed by The New York Times, Time Magazine and the Washington Post.
Though not widely distributed in America, Germany Must Perish is read throughout
Germany. Propaganda Minister Dr. Josef Goebbels states: “Thanks to the Jew
Kaufmann, we Germans know only too well what to expect in case of defeat.”
‘Germany Must Perish!’ will inspire the frightened German people to fight harder.
Kaufman’s work, along with the deadly Jewish Partisan guerilla warfare against
German troops, will contribute to Hitler’s decision to intern the Jews of occupied
Europe into wartime work camps later in 1941.

FDR SIGNS ‘LEND – LEASE’ INTO LAW / UK TO BE SUPPLIED WITH U.S. MANUFACTURED ARMS

Britain is running short of arms and supplies as Germany continues to offer peace on
terms favorable to Britain. Churchill will not listen to reason because, behind the
scenes, FDR is reassuring him that the U.S. will support the UK at all costs. With
his successful re-election campaign of 1940 out of the way, FDR now becomes even
bolder in confronting the anti-war “isolationists”.
The Lend-Lease program places the awesome industrial might of the US at the
disposal of the UK, China, and later on, the USSR. America is to be “the Arsenal of
Democracy” says FDR. Britain will eventually receive $31 Billion worth of war
supplies (about $500 Billion at 2012 prices!)

APRIL 6, 1941

GERMANY BLOCKS BRITISH & SOVIET SCHEMES IN SOUTHERN EUROPE BY INVADING GREECE & YUGOSLAVIA
Though unrelated to Germany’s war, Mussolini’s foolish adventure in Greece has
already created a big problem for Hitler. As Italian forces meet stiff Greek resistance,
Churchill uses the conflict as an opportunity to again establish armies on Europe’s
mainland, in Europe’s “soft underbelly”. British troops begin arriving in Greece to help the Greeks in their fight against the Italians. Hitler offers to mediate peace between Italy and Greece, but the Greeks (egged on by the British) won’t come to the table as more British troops keep arriving.
In March, 1941, Yugoslavia joins Hitler’s defensive Tripartite Pact. In response,
British intelligence immediately triggers an orchestrated coup. The new
Yugoslavian regime is now a British puppet state, which immediately signs a “Treaty
of Friendship” with the USSR. Stalin’s Yugoslavian Communists take to the streets in
support of the new government.
Again, Hitler’s hand is forced. If he does not act now, the “soft underbelly” of Europe
will be flooded with British troops destined for southern Germany, as well as the
Romanian oil fields upon which Germany depends. On April 6, ’41, the Germans
invade both Greece and Yugoslavia. The still small numbers of British troops are
forced to evacuate, spoiling Churchill’s scheme to inflame southern Europe and invite
the Soviets in to help. Naturally, the Globalist media simplistically portrays these
events as: “Germans Invade Yugoslavia & Greece”.

RUDOLF HESS PARACHUTES INTO SCOTLAND WITH YET ANOTHER OFFER OF PEACE!

Rudolf Hess is Germany’s Number 2 in command and a close friend of Hitler. Recall
that it was Hess who typed out the dictation for Hitler’s Mein Kampf. In May of 1941,
Hess (who is fluent in English) flies a solo mission over Scotland and parachutes in,
carrying an offer of peace. He is hoping to link up with the Duke of Hamilton, who he had befriended at the 1936 Berlin Olympics, and convince his British acquaintance
of Germany’s sincere desire for peace. But he is arrested instead.
On Churchill’s orders, Hess is held in solitary confinement for the duration of
the war. After the war, Hess is “tried” at Nuremberg and then sentenced to life in
East Berlin’s Spandau prison. With the liberalization of the USSR in the 1980’s, there
is talk of finally releasing him. But he is said to have committed suicide in his cell in 1987.

His family believes that the 93-year-old Hess was murdered so that the details
of his peace mission would remain buried forever.

MAY – JULY, 1941

FDR ESCALATES HIS PROVOKATION OF GERMANY & JAPAN
Long before the German-Polish conflict, FDR had waged a silent war against
Germany. With Germany now in control of the European situation, FDR is even more
desperate to drag America into Britain’s war. He relentlessly baits Hitler.
To that end, the U.S. impounds German ships, sinks German subs, freezes German,
Italian, and Japanese financial assets, assists the British Navy in spotting and sinking
The Bismarck (killing 2200 German sailors), and ships large amounts of arms to
Britain. Hitler bears the humiliating provocations quietly; knowing that US entry
into the war would be disastrous for Germany.
Realizing that Hitler will not take his bait, FDR further instigates the Japanese. Recall
that the Axis Powers, (Germany, Japan, and Italy) are parties to a mutual defense
pact (Tripartite Pact). An attack on one means war with all. FDR will turn the
Tripartite Pact to his advantage.

‘OPERATION BARBAROSSA’ / HITLER THWARTS STALIN’S PLAN TO CONQUER ALL OF EUROPE

As Germany and Britain exhaust each other in the air, at sea, and now North Africa,
Stalin quietly gathers his massive Red Army along Germany’s eastern frontier, near
the Romanian oil fields that supply Germany. Hitler knows that Stalin cannot be
trusted. He recalls how Stalin broke a non-aggression pact and pounced on Poland
while the Poles were pre-occupied with Germany. Another non-aggression pact was
broken when Stalin attacked Finland. Soviet invasions of the Baltic States and eastern
Romania, along with a recent Communist-backed coup in Yugoslavia all combine to
offer still more proof that Stalin is up to something.
Now, with Germany and Britain distracted, Stalin threatens all of Europe. Hitler had
hoped to remove the Soviet threat in April, but invasion plans were delayed by
Mussolini’s misadventures in Africa and Greece. When “Operation Barbarossa” is
launched, the Red Army is caught flat-footed and bunched up in offensive positions.
Millions of Soviet troops are taken prisoner, and the devastating loss of weaponry and
equipment leaves the Red Army neutralized.
Up to 65% of all Soviet tanks, field guns, .machine guns, and anti-tank guns are
either destroyed or captured. The Germans rout the Reds all the way back to the gates
of Moscow, liberating many cheering Ukrainian, Baltic, and even Russian people
along the way. It is only the onset of the brutal Russian winter that forces the
Germans to pause their stunning offensive. The 2 month delay due to Mussolini’s
folly in Greece may have saved Stalin’s regime from a total collapse in 1941.

“Already in 1940 it became increasingly clear from month to month that the plans of the men in the Kremlin were aimed at the domination, and thus the destruction, of all of Europe. I have
already told the nation of the build-up of Soviet military power in the East during a period when Germany had only a few divisions in the provinces bordering Soviet Russia. Only a blind person
could fail to see that a military build-up of world-historical dimensions was being carried out. And this was not in order to protect something that was being threatened, but rather to attack that which seemed incapable of defense….. I may say this today: .If the wave of more than 20,000 tanks, hundreds of divisions, tens of thousands of artillery pieces, along with more than
10,000 airplanes, had not been kept from being set into motion against the Reich, all of Europe would have been lost.”

– Adolf Hitler, 12-11-1941

JUNE, 1941

FDR RESCUES STALIN / EXTENDS MASSIVE MILITARY AID
With Stalin’s Evil Empire facing extinction at the hands of German forces, FDR
moves quickly to rescue the murderous regime. He unfreezes Soviet assets that had
been frozen after Stalin’s attack on Finland in 1939, enabling the Soviets to
immediately purchase 59 Fighter aircraft. The “Arsenal of Democracy” is now, “The
Arsenal of Communism.”
By 1945, the staggering amount of Lend-Lease deliveries to Stalin include 11,000
aircraft, 4,000 bombers, 400,000 trucks, 12,000 tanks and combat vehicles, 32,000
motorcycles, 13,000 locomotives and railway cars, 8,000 anti-aircraft cannons,
135.000 sub-machine guns, 300,000 tons of explosives, 40,000 field radios, 400 radar
systems, 400,000 metal cutting machine tools, several million tons of food, steel,
other metals, oil and gasoline, chemicals etc. Without this ENORMOUS
INFUSION of American aid, the Germans would probably have finished off
Stalin after the spring thaw of 1942.

JUNE 29, 1941

STALIN ORDERS ‘PARTISAN’ GUERRILLA WAR UPON GERMAN WEHRMARCHT (ARMY) / JEWISH PARTISANS ALSO FORM

Stalin calls upon Party, Soviet, & Trade Union organizations to form “partisan
divisions and diversion groups to pursue and destroy the invaders in a merciless struggle”.

In violation of commonly accepted rules of warfare, many Partisans neither wear uniforms, nor recognize international law. To grow the ranks of the Red Partisans, and prevent the Germans from winning over the civilian population, Soviet commandoes dress up in German uniforms and carry out “false-flag” atrocities against their own people, inciting hatred against the Germans.
Communist and Jewish Partisans, aided by the OSS (forerunner to CIA), also form in other nations, using the same false-flag tactics, and menacing the safety of German
troops unable to tell enemy from civilian.
Massive Jewish support for and participation in non- uniformed Partisan
groups, including women & children, is the main reason for Hitler’s decision to
intern Europe’s Jews in work camps as a wartime security precaution.

THE SAD FATE OF THE VOLGA GERMANS

The Volga Germans are ethnic Germans living along the River Volga in
southeastern Russia. Recruited as immigrants to Russia in the 18th century, they had
always been allowed to maintain their German culture, language, and traditions.

After the German invasion in 1941, the Soviets consider the Volga Germans as
potential collaborators. On August 28, 1941, Stalin dissolves the Volga-German
Republic and orders the immediate relocation of ethnic Germans. About 400,000
Volga Germans are stripped of their land and houses; and transported eastward to
Soviet Central Asia, and Siberia. By 1942, nearly all the able-bodied German
population will have been conscripted to the NKVD slave-labor columns. At least
one-third will not survive the camps.

THE GERMAN SOLDIER’s 10 COMMANDMENTS

The German soldier is the best behaved and honorable soldier of Europe. Every
soldier receives a copy of ‘The German Soldier’s 10 Commandments and is expected
to follow them to the letter or face serious punishment.

While fighting for victory the German soldier will observe the rules of
chivalrous warfare. Cruelties and senseless destruction are below his standard.
Combatants will be in uniform or will wear specially introduced and clearly
distinguishable badges. Fighting in plain clothes or without such badges is
prohibited.
No enemy who has surrendered will be killed, including partisans and spies.
They will be duly punished by courts.
P.O.W. will not be ill-treated or insulted. While arms, maps, and records are to
be taken away from them, their personal belongings will not be touched.
Dum-Dum bullets are prohibited; also no other bullets may be transformed into
Dum-Dum.
Red Cross Institutions are sacrosanct. Injured enemies are to be treated in a
humane way. Medical personnel and army chaplains may not be hindered in
the execution of their medical or clerical activities.

The civilian population is sacrosanct. Neither looting nor wanton destruction
is permitted to the soldier. Landmarks of historical value or buildings serving
religious purposes, art, science, or charity are to be especially respected.
Neutral territory will never be entered nor passed over by planes, nor shot at; it
will not be the object of warlike activities of any kind.
If a German soldier is made a prisoner of war he will tell his name and rank if
asked for it. Under no circumstances will he reveal to which unit he belongs,
nor will he give any information about German military, political, and
economic conditions.
Offenses of duty will be punished. Enemy offenses against the principles
under 1 to 8 are to be reported. Reprisals are only permissible on order of
higher commands.
The only exception to these rules of conduct was in dealing with the murderous

Communist Partisans who refuse to recognize rules of warfare. For this reason, non-
uniformed Partisan prisoners who refused to surrender were sometimes hanged or

shot as war criminals, not as legitimate POW’s.

LIFE IN THE GERMAN INTERNMENT CAMPS

Contrary to the popular belief that life in the SS-run internment camps was a brutal
existence of slave labor followed by extermination, the German went to great lengths
to keep the Jewish inmates well-fed, well-housed and even entertained. Officials from
the International Red Cross visited the camps regularly and right up until the end of
the war.

There were orchestras, soccer leagues and activities for children. There were
weddings, Bar Mitzvahs, and even maternity wards for pregnant women. The
Auschwitz camp even had a swimming pool and a general store!
It was only during the final year of the war that conditions began to deteriorate as
typhus epidemics spread and supplies diminished. Because of the contagious nature
of typhus, the corpses were cremated, not buried near groundwater. The destruction
of so much of Germany’s critical infrastructure contributed to the deaths.
Nonetheless, as the camps were liberated, many healthy and seemingly well-fed
‘Holocaust survivors”, as well as some not so healthy, were seen and photographed.

1941

THE WAFFEN SS: VOLUNTEERS FROM ACROSS EUROPE JOIN INTERNATIONAL FORCE UNDER GERMAN COMMAND
Brave men from every nation in Europe (and some from Asia) volunteer to fight the
Soviets. They are welcomed into Germany’s “Waffen SS” – an elite fighting force.
The anti-Communist Waffen SS are motivated by a vision of a greater European
family. For the European SS, the Europe of jealousies, border disputes, and economic
rivalries is petty. They fight for ‘Europa’ itself.
The Waffen SS is a true international army of the European peoples. One million men
fight in the SS, of which, 600,000 are non-German. Officers of the Waffen serve in
the front lines alongside their men. By war’s end, half of the SS commanders will
have been killed in action. During and after the brutal winter of 41-42, it is the
Waffen SS who will stand their ground and delay the massive Soviet counter offensive.

By the end of the war, 40% of the Waffen SS will have been killed or gone
missing. Were it not for the tenacity and sacrifice of the heroic Waffen
volunteers, all of Europe would have been lost to the Soviet hordes. It is not
surprising that to this day, the “SS” is still vilified in the Globalist press.

HITLER’S JEWISH SOLDIERS AND HIS FAVORITE JEWISH DOCTOR

Hitler was not fanatically anti-Jewish as much as he was anti-Marxist, although there
was large overlap between the two groups. As hard as it may be to believe, it is
absolutely true that about 60,000 half-Jewish, and 90,000 quarter-Jewish soldiers

fought for Hitler’s Germany.Among these were decorated soldiers, officers, and
even Generals and Admirals.
As Fuehrer, Hitler personally intervened to assist Dr. Eduard Bloch, the noble Jewish
doctor who had treated his cancer stricken mother. Hitler had never forgotten Dr.
Bloch’s kindness, and inquired about him when he returned to liberated Austria in 1938.

On Hitler’s orders, Bloch was given “special protection”. When interviewed by
the OSS (CIA) towards the end of the war, Bloch spoke very well of the young Hitler
that he had known.

AUGUST, 1941

JAPAN APPEALS TO U.S. FOR PEACE TALKS TO END THE WAR WITH CHINA

FDR could easily have mediated an end to the war in Asia; but chose to continue arming the
Chinese.

SEPTEMBER 11, 1941

CHARLES LINDBERGH JR. ACCUSES FDR AND JEWS OF PLOTTING TO DRAG THE U.S. INTO THE WAR

American patriots such as famed aviator Charles Lindbergh Jr. clearly see that FDR is
plotting to involve America in the war. Lindbergh is a leading figure in the “America
First” movement, or what Globalist propaganda cleverly refers to as “isolationism.”
Lindbergh’s speech in Iowa accurately describes what is happening behind the scenes.

He warns:
“The leaders of the British and the Jewish races, for reasons which are as
understandable from their viewpoint as they are inadvisable from ours, for reasons
which are not American, wish to involve us in this war.”
Joseph Kennedy, the US Ambassador to England and Patriarch of the Kennedy
Family Dynasty, also expressed this opinion, though not publicly.

OCTOBER – NOVEMBER, 1941

FDR REPEATEDLY AND DELIBERATELY BAITS JAPAN
In the closing months of 1941, FDR’s provocations of Japan escalate to the level of
“acts of war”. FDR imposes devastating oil and trade embargoes on Japan, denies her
ships access to the neutral Panama Canal, and orders U.S. battleships to undertake
“pop up” cruises through Japanese territorial waters.

Finally, on November 26th of ’41, FDR sends an impossible ultimatum to Japan,
implying a military threat, and demanding that Japan withdraw all of its troops from
China and Indochina as a pre-condition for lifting the oil embargo.
The day before the hostile letter was sent, Secretary of War Henry Stimson recorded,
in his personal diary, the topic of a meeting with FDR as follows: “The question was
how we should maneuver them (Japan) into the position of firing the first shot.”

Hitler’s 1945 “Suicide Note” — The Ultimate “Red Pill”

“It is untrue that I or anyone else in Germany wanted the war in 1939.”

HITLER’S TESTAMENT // APRIL 29, 1945:
*** IMAGES & CAPTIONS ADDED***

More than thirty years have now passed since I in 1914 made my modest contribution as a volunteer in the first world war that was forced upon the Reich.

In these three decades I have been actuated solely by love and loyalty to my people in all my thoughts, acts, and life. They gave me the strength to make the most difficult decisions which have ever confronted mortal man. I have spent my time, my working strength, and my health in these three decades.

It is untrue that I or anyone else in Germany wanted the war in 1939. It was desired and instigated exclusively by those international statesmen who were either of Jewish descent or worked for Jewish interests.

TESTAMENT CONTINUED:

I have made too many offers for the control and limitation of armaments, which posterity will not for all time be able to disregard for the responsibility for the outbreak of this war to be laid on me. I have further never wished that after the first fatal world war a second against England, or even against America, should break out. Centuries will pass away, but out of the ruins of our towns and monuments the hatred against those finally responsible whom we have to thank for everything, international Jewry and its helpers, will grow.

Three days before the outbreak of the German-Polish war I again proposed to the British ambassador in Berlin a solution to the German-Polish problem—similar to that in the case of the Saar district, under international control. This offer also cannot be denied. It was only rejected because the leading circles in English politics wanted the war, partly on account of the business hoped for and partly under influence of propaganda organized by international Jewry.

I have also made it quite plain that, if the nations of Europe are again to be regarded as mere shares to be bought and sold by these international conspirators in money and finance, then that race, Jewry, which is the real criminal of this murderous struggle, will be saddled with the responsibility. I further left no one in doubt that this time not only would millions of children of Europe’s Aryan peoples die of hunger, not only would millions of grown men suffer death, and not only hundreds of thousands of women and children be burnt and bombed to death in the towns, without the real criminal having to atone for this guilt, even if by more humane means.

After six years of war, which in spite of all setbacks will go down one day in history as the most glorious and valiant demonstration of a nation’s life purpose, I cannot forsake the city which is the capital of this Reich. As the forces are too small to make any further stand against the enemy attack at this place, and our resistance is gradually being weakened by men who are as deluded as they are lacking in initiative, I should like, by remaining in this town, to share my fate with those, the millions of others, who have also taken upon themselves to do so. Moreover I do not wish to fall into the hands of an enemy who requires a new spectacle organized by the Jews for the amusement of their hysterical masses.

TESTAMENT CONTINUED:

I have decided therefore to remain in Berlin and there of my own free will to choose death at the moment when I believe the position of the Fuehrer and Chancellor itself can no longer be held.

I die with a happy heart, aware of the immeasurable deeds and achievements of our soldiers at the front, our women at home, the achievements of our farmers and workers and the work, unique in history, of our youth who bear my name.

That from the bottom of my heart I express my thanks to you all, is just as self-evident as my wish that you should, because of that, on no account give up the struggle but rather continue it against the enemies of the Fatherland, no matter where, true to the creed of a great Clausewitz. From the sacrifice of our soldiers and from my own unity with them unto death, will in any case spring up in the history of Germany, the seed of a radiant renaissance of the National-Socialist movement and thus of the realization of a true community of nations.

Many of the most courageous men and women have decided to unite their lives with mine until the very last I have begged and finally ordered them not to do this, but to take part in the further battle of the Nation. I beg the heads of the Armies, the Navy, and the Air Force to strengthen by all possible means the spirit of resistance of our soldiers in the National-Socialist sense, with special reference to the fact that also I myself, as founder and creator of this movement, have preferred death to cowardly abdication or even capitulation.

May it, at some future time, become part of the code of honor of the German officer—as is already the case in our Navy—that the surrender of a district or of a town is impossible, and that above all the leaders here must march ahead as shining examples, faithfully fulfilling their duty unto death.

Second Part of the Political Testament

Before my death I expel the former Reichsmarschall Hermann Goering from the party and deprive him of all rights which he may enjoy by virtue of the decree of June 29th, 1941; and also by virtue of my statement in the Reichstag on September 1st, 1939, I appoint in his place Grossadmiral Doenitz, President of the Reich and Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces.

Before my death I expel the former Reichsfuehrer-SS and Minister of the Interior, Heinrich Himmler, from the party and from all offices of State. In his stead I appoint Gauleiter Karl Hanke as Reichsfuehrer-SS and Chief of the German Police, and Gauleiter Paul Giesler as Reich Minister of the Interior.

Goering and Himmler, quite apart from their disloyalty to my person, have done immeasurable harm to the country and the whole nation by secret negotiations with the enemy, which they conducted without my knowledge and against my wishes, and by illegally attempting to seize power in the State for themselves.

(Editor’s Note: Goering & Himmler naively believed that they could end the war by making peace with the United States and fighting the Soviets together instead.)

In order to give the German people a government composed of honorable men,—a government which will fulfill its pledge to continue the war by every means—I appoint the following members of the new Cabinet as leaders of the nation:

President of the Reich: DOENITZ
Chancellor of the Reich: DR. GOEBBELS
Party Minister: BORMANN
Foreign Minister: SEYSS-INQUART

[Here follow fifteen others.]

Although a number of these men, such as Martin Bormann, Dr. Goebbels, etc., together with their wives, have joined me of their own free will and did not wish to leave the capital of the Reich under any circumstances, but were willing to perish with me here, I must nevertheless ask them to obey my request, and in this case set the interests of the nation above their own feelings. By their work and loyalty as comrades they will be just as close to me after death, as I hope that my spirit will linger among them and always go with them. Let them be hard, but never unjust, above all let them never allow fear to influence their actions, and set the honor of the nation above everything in the world. Finally, let them be conscious of the fact that our task, that of continuing the building of a National Socialist State, represents the work of the coming centuries, which places every single person under an obligation always to serve the common interest and to subordinate his own advantage to this end. I demand of all Germans, all National Socialists, men, women, and all the men of the Armed Forces, that they be faithful and obedient unto death to the new government and its President.

Above all I charge the leaders of the nation and those under them to scrupulous observance of the laws of race and to merciless opposition to the universal poisoner of all peoples, international Jewry.
Given in Berlin, this 29th day of April 1945. 4:00 A.M.

10 Simple Ways to Live a Less Stressful Life

Stress is a major problem for many people — a hectic, stressful job, a chaotic home life, bills to worry about and bad habits such as unhealthy eating, drinking and smoking can lead to a mountain of stress.

If your life is full of stress, there are some simple things you can do to get to a more manageable level.

Now, your life will probably never be stress-free. That’s not desirable (even if it was possible) because stress is something that challenges you and helps you grow—when it’s at a reasonable level. But when stress gets too high, it causes you to be unhappy and unhealthy.

One of the keys to success is taking a realistic, gradual approach to change. How do you do it? One change at a time. Change one habit a month and gradually, over the course of a year or two, you will find you have made long-lasting changes to many things in your life.

Not all of these tips may work for you. Each person is different. Pick and choose the ones that you feel will be effective for you, and give them a try. One at a time.

One thing at a time. This is the simplest and best way to start reducing your stress, and you can start today. Right now. Focus as much as possible on doing one thing at a time. Clear your desk of distractions. Pick something to work on. Need to write a report? Do only that. Remove distractions such as phones and email notifications while you’re working on that report. If you’re going to review email, do only that. This takes practice, and you’ll get urges to do other things. Just keep practicing and you’ll get better at it.
Simplify your schedule. A hectic schedule is a major cause of high stress. Simplify by reducing the number of commitments in your life to the essentials. Learn to say no to the rest — and slowly get out of commitments that aren’t beneficial to you. Schedule only a few important things each day, and put space between them. Leave room for down time and fun.
Get moving. Do something each day to be active — walk, hike, play a sport, go for a run, do yoga. It doesn’t have to be grueling to reduce stress. Just move. Have fun doing it.
Develop one healthy habit this month. Other than getting active, improving your health overall will help with the stress. But do it one habit at a time. Eat fruits and veggies for snacks. Floss every day. Quit smoking. Cook a healthy dinner. Drink water instead of soda. One habit at a time.
Do something calming. What do you enjoy that calms you down? For many people, it can be the “get moving” activity discussed above. But it could also be taking a nap, or a bath, or reading. Other people are calmed by housework or yard work. Some people like to meditate, or take a nature walk. Find your calming activity and try to do it each day.
Simplify your finances. Finances can be a drain on your energy and a major stressor. If that’s true with you, find ways to simplify things. Automate savings and bill payments and debt payments. Spend less by shopping (at malls or online) much less. Find ways to have fun that don’t involve spending money.
Have a blast! Have fun each day, even if it’s just for a few minutes. Play with your kids — that can take your mind off everything and can be really hilarious. Play sports (with or without your kids). Board games are fun. Whatever you choose, be sure to laugh.
Get creative. Throwing yourself into a creative activity is another great way to de-stress and to prevent stress. Consider writing, painting, woodworking, playing music, sketching, cooking or making pottery, interior design or building things.
Declutter. Take 20 to 30 minutes and just go through a room, getting rid of stuff you don’t use or need anymore or find a better place for it. When you are done, you will have a nice, peaceful environment for work, play, and living. Do this a little at a time — make it one of your “fun activities.”
Be early. Being late can be very stressful. Try to leave earlier by getting ready earlier, or by scheduling more space between events. Things always take longer than normal, so schedule some buffer time: extra time to get ready, to commute, to do errands before you need to be somewhere, to attend a meeting before another scheduled appointment. If you get somewhere early, it’s good to have some reading material.

The 7 types of rest that every person needs

This post is part of TED’s “How to Be a Better Human” series, each of which contains a piece of helpful advice from people in the TED community; browse through all the posts here.

Have you ever tried to fix an ongoing lack of energy by getting more sleep — only to do so and still feel exhausted?

If that’s you, here’s the secret: Sleep and rest are not the same thing, although many of us incorrectly confuse the two.

We go through life thinking we’ve rested because we have gotten enough sleep — but in reality we are missing out on the other types of rest we desperately need. The result is a culture of high-achieving, high-producing, chronically tired and chronically burned-out individuals. We’re suffering from a rest deficit because we don’t understand the true power of rest.

Rest should equal restoration in seven key areas of your life.

The first type of rest we need is physical rest, which can be passive or active. Passive physical rest includes sleeping and napping, while active physical rest means restorative activities such as yoga, stretching and massage therapy that help improve the body’s circulation and flexibility.

The second type of rest is mental rest. Do you know that coworker who starts work every day with a huge cup of coffee? He’s often irritable and forgetful, and he has a difficult time concentrating on his work. When he lies down at night to sleep, he frequently struggles to turn off his brain as conversations from the day fill his thoughts. And despite sleeping seven to eight hours, he wakes up feeling as if he never went to bed. He has a mental rest deficit.

The good news is you don’t have to quit your job or go on vacation to fix this. Schedule short breaks to occur every two hours throughout your workday; these breaks can remind you to slow down. You might also keep a notepad by the bed to jot down any nagging thoughts that would keep you awake.

The third type of rest we need is sensory rest. Bright lights, computer screens, background noise and multiple conversations — whether they’re in an office or on Zoom calls — can cause our senses to feel overwhelmed. This can be countered by doing something as simple as closing your eyes for a minute in the middle of the day, as well as by intentionally unplugging from electronics at the end of every day. Intentional moments of sensory deprivation can begin to undo the damage inflicted by the over-stimulating world.

The fourth type of rest is creative rest. This type of rest is especially important for anyone who must solve problems or brainstorm new ideas. Creative rest reawakens the awe and wonder inside each of us. Do you recall the first time you saw the Grand Canyon, the ocean or a waterfall? Allowing yourself to take in the beauty of the outdoors — even if it’s at a local park or in your backyard — provides you with creative rest.

But creative rest isn’t simply about appreciating nature; it also includes enjoying the arts. Turn your workspace into a place of inspiration by displaying images of places you love and works of art that speak to you. You can’t spend 40 hours a week staring at blank or jumbled surroundings and expect to feel passionate about anything, much less come up with innovative ideas.

Now let’s take a look at another individual — the friend whom everyone thinks is the nicest person they’ve ever met. It’s the person everyone depends on, the one you’d call if you needed a favor because even if they don’t want to do it, you know they’ll give you a reluctant “yes” rather than a truthful “no”. But when this person is alone, they feel unappreciated and like others are taking advantage of them.

This person requires emotional rest, which means having the time and space to freely express your feelings and cut back on people pleasing. Emotional rest also requires the courage to be authentic. An emotionally rested person can answer the question “How are you today?” with a truthful “I’m not okay” — and then go on to share some hard things that otherwise go unsaid.

If you’re in need of emotional rest, you probably have a social rest deficit too. This occurs when we fail to differentiate between those relationships that revive us from those relationships that exhaust us. To experience more social rest, surround yourself with positive and supportive people. Even if your interactions have to occur virtually, you can choose to engage more fully in them by turning on your camera and focusing on who you’re speaking to.

The final type of rest is spiritual rest, which is the ability to connect beyond the physical and mental and feel a deep sense of belonging, love, acceptance and purpose. To receive this, engage in something greater than yourself and add prayer, meditation or community involvement to your daily routine.

As you can see, sleep alone can’t restore us to the point we feel rested. So it’s time for us to begin focusing on getting the right type of rest we need.

Editor’s note: Fatigue can also be associated with numerous health problems, so please get checked out by your physician if it persists.

Race Bait And The Controlled Opposition Protests

Controlled opposition protests have been happening not just throughout the 50 US states but on 3 continents worldwide, from London to Seoul to Melbourne.

Why?

Why would the people of Europe, Asia and Australia care so much about the alleged murder of a black man that they would feel compelled to actually take to the streets and protest over it, given the incident didn’t even even happen in their country?

For those following the worldwide conspiracy closely, these kind of things are clues that this whole event – race baiting, agent provocateurs, conveniently dropped off pallets of bricks, looting, Antifa, BLM (Black Lives Matter), government-sanctioned controlled opposition protests and more – is yet another piece of social engineering from the NWO (New World Order) script. Race Bait And The Controlled Opposition Protests

The same old race-baiters are behind the BLM and Antifa violent protests

It’s a blatant divide-and-conquer tactic devised to distract people away from the serious rights and freedoms that are being destroyed under the guise of fighting a pandemic.

It’s a transparent ploy to stoke and then exploit racial tension. So, let’s take a look at how the NWO manipulators are doing it.

Controlled Opposition Protests Actively Encouraged By Government

The first clue things are not as they seem in the Matrix is that numerous government officials have been telling people to protest! That’s right; not only have officials stated they have no problem with people demonstrating, they have actually encouraged and promoted it.

Why?

When has government ever done this in the past?
Why on earth would self-interested politicians want people to protest against them unless it was part of their plan?
What self-respecting activist needs to be formally and officially invited by the government to protest?

If red flags haven’t gone up for you when you hear that, you need to seriously develop your skepticism and bullshit detect-o-meter.

What would you think if a bank formally invited thieves to come and rob it that night, and rolled out the red carpet for them to do so?

People need to realize that:

– it serves the NWO agenda for people to fight among themselves so they are divided not united against the real threat (the enslavement of the mass population by the social engineers, banksters and conspirators);

– its serves the NWO agenda for people to be focused on imaginary, inflated or unimportant issues (race wars) rather than actual and essential issues (the destruction of freedom and inherent rights);

– whether people protest or not, stay at home or not, social distance or not, wear a mask or not etc., has nothing to do with science, reason or logic and everything to do with how it serves the NWO agenda.

For instance, when COVID was the focus in March-May, it served the ruling class for everyone to be OCD and scared of everyone and everything around them.

Now, it serves the ruling class for people to protest, which is why social distancing has dropped off the radar and no one seems to care about enforcing or performing it anymore.

Yet, logically, if there were a contagious virus that was on the loose, and social distancing worked, why would it suddenly not work just because a black man was killed?;

– the masses are being played by the pied piper.

When authorities tell them to stay at home, they obey.

When authorities tell them to be scared (immensely scared), they obey.

When authorities tell them to social distance, they obey.

When authorities tell them to wear a mask, they obey.

Now, when authorities tell them to dutifully protest, they obey.

So tell me: where were all these protestors 3 months ago when a coup was being pulled off to permanently transform society? Hiding in their houses like scared little mice, most of them;

– Social engineers are telling you how to think, how to feel and what you allowed to be angry at.

You’re not allowed to question the scientific basis of the fake pandemic; you’re not allowed to be angry at forced contact tracing surveillance and vaccination; but you may be angry at racism, as long as it’s white on black racism.

How do you like being told what to feel?;

– These controlled-opposition protests are corporate-sponsored. Nike, Amazon and all the big corporate giants can’t tell you fast enough how much they deeply care for black people.

Sure, some of this is good old-fashioned virtue-signalling (look at me, look how pious I am) and market posturing which will be calculatedly exploited to increase profit.

However, it is also more evidence that this entire phenomenon is scripted by the big players who are in on the agenda and are collectively and systematically promoting it;

– As with any MSM-reported event, we have to question everything.

If Floyd was really killed by police officer Chauvin as depicted in the video, is it just a coincidence that they both knew each other and worked as security for the same club (as reported here)?

A Quick Look At BLM (Black Lives Matter)

It is an open secret (pun intended) that George Soros funds groups like Antifa and BLM. Therefore, it is logical to think that part of BLM’s mission will be to carry out Soros agendas.

So what is BLM’s mission? Let’s take a look at their website:

“We acknowledge, respect, and celebrate differences and commonalities. We work vigorously for freedom and justice for Black people and, by extension, all people.

“We intentionally build and nurture a beloved community that is bonded together through a beautiful struggle that is restorative, not depleting.

“We are unapologetically Black in our positioning. In affirming that Black Lives Matter, we need not qualify our position. To love and desire freedom and justice for ourselves is a prerequisite for wanting the same for others.

“We see ourselves as part of the global Black family, and we are aware of the different ways we are impacted or privileged as Black people who exist in different parts of the world.”

So far, so good. This is to be expected for an organization formed to stand up for Black rights. But look what it goes into next:

“We are guided by the fact that all Black lives matter, regardless of actual or perceived sexual identity, gender identity, gender expression, economic status, ability, disability, religious beliefs or disbeliefs, immigration status, or location.

We make space for transgender brothers and sisters to participate and lead.

We are self-reflexive and do the work required to dismantle cisgender privilege and uplift Black trans folk, especially Black trans women who continue to be disproportionately impacted by trans-antagonistic violence.

We build a space that affirms Black women and is free from sexism, misogyny, and environments in which men are centered.

We foster a queer‐affirming network. When we gather, we do so with the intention of freeing ourselves from the tight grip of heteronormative thinking, or rather, the belief that all in the world are heterosexual (unless s/he or they disclose otherwise).

We dismantle the patriarchal practice that requires mothers to work “double shifts” so that they can mother in private even as they participate in public justice work.

We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable.”

Whoa! Wait a minute here. What does standing up for black rights and standing against racism have to do with sexual identity, transgenderism, “cisgender privilege”, feminism, sexism, misogyny and gay rights?

What is going on here?

A good 40-50% of their “What We Believe” page, which is like a mission statement, has absolutely nothing to do with blacks at all!

This is yet another clue that reveals that society is being steered in a certain direction which has nothing to do with genuine care for black people or a genuine desire to stop racism.

Many blacks are getting it, such as Candace Owens and this passionate and intelligent black man who tells his white friends that “All Lives Matter”, that they shouldn’t be feeling any white guilt just for being white and that they should absolutely not buy into the lie that white people today should pay reparations to black people today.

Obama Foundation Foreknowledge? Releases Poster Picture Of George Floyd … 8 Days Before He Dies

George Floyd was a troubled individual and a felon, who had done things in his past such as hold a gun to a pregnant woman’s belly. He apparently had meth and fentanyl in his bloodstream at the time of death. The below tweet from the Obama Foundation is dated May 17th:

Snopes predictably defends the Obama Foundation by claiming Twitter automatically updated the image from the tweet later on. Do you buy that?

Or was there a poster of Floyd prepared at least 8 days before he died? If so, this kind of foreknowledge is typical of psychological operations and false flag events where the entire incident is planned well in advance, the real orchestrators are hidden from public sight and the event is made to look like a random occurrence.

Consider all the foreknowledge involved in the 911 false flag attack (e.g. BBC knowing that WTC7 would fall before it happened), Sandy Hook (e.g. donation and charity pages going live before the event) and all the other false flag ops where the drill went live by a stroke of sheer luck.

Questions To Consider In Looking Closely At BLM And The Controlled Opposition Protests

In this Instagram video, Tommy Vext does a great short analysis of how this thing works: the MSM focuses on BLM and Antifa, who are in turn funded by Soros, the Clintons and others. Agent provocateurs make it look like normal, peaceful Black Americans are violent and crazy. The same people who orchestrated the event control the MSM to direct people’s perception of it.

The great website Off Guardian did an article on 20 unanswered questions surrounding the death of George Floyd plus the subsequent protests and riots. I have taken some of them and added in my own below:

1. Why are people protesting in Australia, Korea and the UK over the death of an American black man?

2. Police brutality is rife over-militarized America. It happens all the time. Why is this death different? Why did the George Floyd video suddenly get noticed, and not the dozens of other videos of police being brutally violent? Why is an allegedly grass-roots social revolution enjoying sponsorship as if they were a sports team?

3. Why are we being led to obsess over race?

4. Why are we being led to hyper-focus on the idea that individuals should be defined in terms of their group identity – not their personality or – as Martin Luther King Jr. famously said – the content of their character?

5. As Douglas Murray writes in his article Why I won’t ‘take the knee’, when does this over-correction end? How much longer do white people need to apologize and prostrate themselves at the feet of black people for the crime of being white, even when they are not racist themselves and it’s 100% about what some white people (not even their direct ancestors) did to some black people generations ago?

Murray writes:

“The current moment of over-correction appears to consist of an attempt to make all white people confess to some culpability in racist murder …

“Who will tell you when you have over-corrected for long enough?” and “How would you know that you have?” Perhaps most pertinently for the present moment is the question “How would you be sure that this overswing of the pendulum in one direction does not lead to its overswing in the other direction when it starts to head back?””

6. If these are not controlled opposition protests, and the looters genuinely care about black lives, why are rioters attacking so many black businesses?

7. Caitlin Johnstone writes about this video:

“An officer with the Saint Paul Police Department has been publicly named by someone identified as the officer’s ex-wife, who said his voice, walk and gas mask made her “90% sure” it was him. The Saint Paul Police Department has denied this. Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t, but it is a very safe bet that it’s a law enforcement officer of some kind. Disruptive police infiltration of protest movements is a historical constant in America, after all. It is the norm, not the exception.”

8. Who is pushing the idea of defunding the police? Why? While police brutality is a big problem in America, there is possibly a bigger problem: having no police at all.

This would create a power vacuum and likely lead to either mob rule (with more rioting, looting and theft), martial law or a new kind of force to “keep the order” which could mean national or international police.

If the latter, this would mean new police that are entirely disconnected from the community they are policing and its needs. Is the call to defund the police part of the New World Order strategy to create even less connection between the rulers/enforcers and the rest of us?

Conclusion: Protests Play Right Into The Government’s Hands

These protest and riots are exactly what the government wants. Government is pretty useless at taking care of most things, but if it’s one thing it excels at, it’s taking care of riots.

Governments love violence.

When people get violent, it gives the power-hungry control freak politicians the perfect excuse they need to mobilize the police and military.

Government has way more firepower than the people, so there’s no point fighting them int that arena. It won’t work.

By the way, did you know that some governments have already begun using contact tracing (supposedly just to protect against COVID) to track arrestees?

Clearly, the social engineers have certain formulas they use to control the masses. One common tactic is for them to race bait, invoke massive emotion, stir up anger and create social unrest. It’s like flicking a switch.

Just when people were starting to become really fed up and angry with the ridiculous restrictions of the fake pandemic, the NWO controllers decided it was time to inject a new narrative into the mass consciousness. Stay alert and aware.

6 Ways to Make Getting Up Early Work for You

To accomplish a big goal, such as launching a new business, writing a novel or starting an exercise regime, productivity experts will often suggest getting up early. You can get a lot done in a quiet house with no distractions or interruptions. While this is sound advice, it’s easier said than done.

“You might think getting up earlier is just a matter of discipline, but it actually takes much more than that,” says Julie Morgenstern, time management expert and author of Never Check Email in the Morning (Touchstone; 2005). “The truth is, your entire ecosystem has been built around sleeping later.”

When you try to change your morning routine, several obstacles will stand in your way. It’s possible to overcome them, however; the key is to start the night before. Morgenstern offers six strategies to make getting up early work for you:

1. Change your mindset. Many people fight going to sleep because they want to get more done – they have separation anxiety from the day. But Morgenstern teaches her clients to think differently.

“Consider sleep the beginning of the next day,” she says, adding that this mind shift can change the way you look at sleep and make it exciting. “Sleep becomes an active element; you’re charging up your battery.”

2. Adjust your bedtime. Many of us are already sleep deprived, and stealing another hour of sleep will just set you up for failure. The only way to be successful is to go to bed earlier. Determine how many hours of sleep your body requires and count backwards from there.

“Getting up earlier requires a fundamental shift in your neuro-pathways,” she says. “While the change makes total sense to you the day before, actually doing it the next morning is hard work and requires you to break a lot of patterns.”

3. Adjust other nighttime activities. You’ll also have to adjust the time you eat dinner as well as after-dinner decompression activities, such as reading, says Morgenstern.

“You’re not being realistic if you say you’ll get up early but then don’t build everything else into your day” accordingly, she says. Also, eat dinner no less than two to three hours before bed, which is optimal for being able to fall asleep and sleep well.

4. Prepare for your morning activity. Sometimes what keeps us in bed isn’t fatigue, but the fact the morning task we’ve planned is overwhelming. To make these activities less daunting, prep the night before and organize your equipment. Set out your gym clothes, yoga mat or running shoes, if you’re planning to exercise. If you’re going to be on your computer, tidy your home office, and preprogram your coffee maker.

“Starting something new can feel complicated,” says Morgenstern. “Take the time to prepare and you’ll increase your chances for success.”

5. Turn off electronics. At least 90 minutes before bed pull the plug on electronic activities, such as watching television, checking email or social media or reading on an e-reader.

“Science says it’s a source of energy and over-stimulates us,” she says. “It’s like drinking a Red Bull before bed – there’s no way you’ll fall asleep.”

She suggests replacing it with something relaxing, such as listening to music, drawing, or prepping meals for next day.

6. Create a pre-bedtime routine. Give yourself peace of mind and time to unwind by creating a calming pre-bedtime routine. For example, make a ritual of checking the windows and locks. Dim the lights and stretch. Or take a leisurely walk.

“This routine will help you fall asleep quickly and easily,” she says. “It will also significantly increase your chances of getting up in morning.”

Are You an Overthinker?

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by your thoughts? Many of my clients have expressed frustration, even anguish, with their relentless experiences of self-imposed mental interrogation. It occurs as an irresistible urge to analyze practically everything they think, but especially the unwanted, spontaneous thoughts that just pop into their mind.

Consider a young woman we’ll call Jessica. She sought treatment for anxiety, but within a short period of time, it was clear that she was caught in a self-defeating mental trap. Any negative, unwanted thought triggered an agonizing process of self-analysis.

She’d ask herself over and over “what caused me to have this thought,” “what does it mean,” “what if I get stuck and become more and more anxious,” or, “I need to find a way to get better control of my mind.” She spent hours analyzing thoughts that suddenly popped into her head. She’d also overanalyze what people said to her, always questioning whether a negative intention was meant. By her own admission, Jessica was “stuck in her head.”

Can you relate? Do you find yourself caught in a distressing cycle of overanalyzing your thoughts? Overthinking is a prominent characteristic of worry, rumination, and obsessive thinking. But it is not limited to these conditions. It can be a problem in its own right, and yet few people recognize the negative effect it can have on our emotional health, happiness, and well-being. Many people have concluded that overthinking is part of their personality; they’ve not realized that strategies are available to counter this anxiety-inducing habit.

The Overthinking Mind

I am using the term “overthink” to refer to an excessive tendency to monitor, evaluate, and attempt to control all types of thought.¹ Overthinkers are not only highly aware of their thoughts, but they also spend a lot of time trying to understand the causes and meaning of their thoughts.

Sometimes this can be a useful characteristic if our thoughts are significant, and we need to decide on the best course of action. For example, if I have a thought like, “Should I leave my spouse and file for divorce?” “I’m going nowhere in this job; maybe I need new employment,” or “I’m having chest pains; maybe I should go to the hospital,” I need to pay attention to these thoughts. Ignoring the thought or not taking it seriously could be disastrous.

Overthinking is a problem for another type of thinking that I discussed in a previous post: negative intrusive thoughts. When we pay too much attention to such thoughts, overanalyze their meaning, and try too hard to control them, we can slip into unhealthy forms of thought, like worry, rumination, obsession, and the like. And when we overanalyze negative, intrusive thoughts, we can end up anxious, depressed, frustrated, and guilt-ridden.

Signs of Overthinking

If you’re wondering whether overthinking is a problem for you, consider the following questions:

Are you easily aware of what you’re thinking at any given moment?
Do you often question why you are having certain thoughts?
Do you often look for the deeper meaning or personal significance of your thoughts?
When feeling upset, do you often focus on what you are thinking?
Do you have a strong need to know or understand how your mind works?
Do you feel it’s important to have strict control over your thoughts?
Do you have a low tolerance for spontaneous, unwanted thoughts?
Are you often in a struggle to control your thoughts?

If you answered yes to many of these questions, it’s possible you have a tendency to overthink.

There are two dangers to this. If you are overthinking important issues in your life, you can get stuck in indecision, avoidance, and procrastination. A person thinking about their relationships, health, career, self-identity issues, and the like needs to spend time in thoughtful reflection, but too much time in the head can be costly. On the other hand, we all have negative, intrusive thoughts that are best left alone. Spending time on these thoughts can lead to significant personal distress.

How to Curb Overthinking

If you suspect you’re falling prey to overthinking, there are several steps you can take:

Know your triggers. Even the most ardent overthinkers don’t do it all the time. Probably there are certain thoughts or issues that are more likely to trigger overthinking. If you’re a worrier, for example, thoughts about the future may be more likely to trigger overthinking. For another person, it may be thinking about their competence or whether they are liked by others. Whatever the case, it’s important to know the “hot spots” that trigger your overthinking.
Be aware of overthinking. To reduce overthinking, you need to know when it’s happening. What are the telltale signs that you’re overthinking? Is it when you’re trying to interpret the meaning of an intrusive thought when it probably has no hidden meaning? Is it when you’re trying too hard to control or suppress the thought? Or is it when you become frightened or anxious with the thought? There may be other signs that indicate you’ve slipped into overthinking.
Fully embrace its futility. You won’t be able to curb overthinking as long as you believe it has value. Review your past experiences with overthinking and write down how it helped. Did the overthinking result in any meaningful solution or revelation? Were there more positive or negative consequences associated with it?
Disengage. When people are “too much in their head,” this signifies over-engagement with unwanted thoughts. The opposite approach is to disengage from the thought. So, the best way to curb overthinking is mindful acceptance in which we observe but don’t evaluate our unwanted thoughts. A second approach is focused distraction, in which we shift our attention to another train of thought or activity, without engaging in an attempt to resolve or understand the unwanted thought we’re overthinking.

Overthinking can be harmful to our emotional health, especially when it’s directed at unwanted, spontaneous, negative thoughts, images, or memories. Fortunately, we can learn to curb this unhelpful way of thinking through greater self-awareness and the practice of mental disengagement.

7 Simple Ways to Deepen Your Emotional Intelligence

Emotional intelligence has become a topic at the forefront of human resources workshops, leadership groups, and corporate training sessions—and with good reason.

Evidence shows that emotional intelligence plays a big role in workplace performance. Individuals with high emotional intelligence perform better and usually experience better psychological and physical well being.

Emotional Intelligence Components

7 Simple Ways to Deepen Your Emotional Intelligence | Psychology Today

The concept of emotional intelligence was made popular by an author named Daniel Goleman. His 1996 bestseller, Emotional Intelligence, introduced it to the public. The idea was originally proposed by John Mayer and Peter Salovey in 1990.

The model of emotional intelligence proposed by Salovey and Mayer contains four parts:

Perceive emotions in oneself and others accurately;intel
Use emotions to facilitate thinking;
Understand emotions, emotional language, and the signals conveyed by emotion; and
Manage emotions to attain specific goals.

Studies have shown that emotional intelligence can be learned. It has become a billion-dollar industry, as training programs have proved very effective in helping people raise their emotional intelligence and perform at their best.

But you don’t need a formal training program to boost your own emotional intelligence.

Here are seven simple ways to boost your emotional intelligence.

7 Simple Ways to Deepen Your Emotional Intelligence | Psychology Today

1. Label your emotions.

People rarely like to talk about their feelings, despite the fact that our emotions affect every decision we make. Many people are much more comfortable saying things like “I had butterflies in my stomach” or a “lump in my throat” than what they are really feeling, which is sadness or anxiety.

Practice labeling your emotions with real feeling words—frustrated, anxious, disappointed, etc. Check on yourself a few times a day, and pay attention to how you are feeling, even if you don’t announce it out loud.

2. Consider how your emotions affect your judgment.

Now that you know how you’re feeling, take time to consider how these emotions are affecting your thoughts and behaviors. If you’re sad, it may cause you to be afraid of rejection, and you may underestimate your chances of success.

7 Simple Ways to Deepen Your Emotional Intelligence | Psychology Today

On the other hand, if you’re overly excited about an opportunity, you may overestimate your chances. This could lead to taking risks without examining the potential consequences or drawbacks.

To make better decisions, you need to recognize how your emotions are affecting your judgment. In doing so, you will balance the outlook of your own logic and emotion, and thus be better equipped to make decisions.

3. Decide whether your feelings are a friend or an enemy.

Every emotion we experience has the power to be helpful or unhelpful at times. The same emotion can affect us in either a positive or negative way, depending on how we use it.

Once you determine what you are feeling at any moment, next consider whether that emotion is being a friend to you or an enemy at the time. Anger could be a friend when it helps you stand up for injustice. It could be an enemy, however, when you’re entering a discussion with your boss.

Sadness can be helpful when it reminds you to honor a person you no longer have. But it could be an enemy when it gets in the way of your motivation in life.

If you realize that sadness is being an enemy, you must do what you can to regulate your emotions. Try to experiment with different coping strategies to help you do this. Maybe meditation for a few minutes can help you calm down. Afterward, even a simple activity like walking around the block might help you cheer up.

4. Be responsible for your own emotions.

Saying that your co-worker makes you feel bad about yourself, or blaming your boss for putting you in a bad mood, implies that you are letting other people control your emotions. Your ability to respond to your emotions involves your accepting full responsibility for them.

7 Simple Ways to Deepen Your Emotional Intelligence | Psychology Today

Only you can choose how you decide to respond to your circumstances and to other people. Remember this any time you are tempted to think someone else is dragging you down emotionally. So rather than think, “He’s making me mad,” try something like, “I don’t like what he’s doing right now, and I’m getting mad.”

5. Notice other people’s feelings.

Your understanding of how other people are feeling is one of the key components to raising your emotional intelligence. Focusing on this will prevent you from interrupting someone you disagree with or jumping into an argument.

Pay close attention to other people’s emotional states. If you can recognize how someone is feeling, then you will better understand how that emotion is likely to influence that individual’s perception and behavior.

6. Limit your screen time.

Spending too much time on your digital devices will impair your relationships. In romantic relationships, studies have found that having a smartphone present while you’re spending time with someone else can inhibit closeness and erode trust.

Too much screen time can also interfere with an individual’s ability to read or understand emotions. And as you read earlier, this is one of the four critical components of emotional intelligence.

A 2014 study published in Computers in Human Behavior found that preteens who spent five days at an outdoor camp without access to their digital devices greatly improved their ability to read other people’s emotions. This improvement of understanding nonverbal emotions happened in just five days without their electronics.

So setting healthy limits on your technology would probably be a good idea. Don’t have your phone out when you are talking face to face with people. Set aside time periods during the day when you won’t use your phone—maybe the first hour after you wake up, lunch time, or before bed.

Doing a digital detox every now and then can really do you some good. A few days without your electronics will better equip you in your ability to read other people’s emotions.

7. Reflect on your progress.

At the end of every day, reflect on your progress. Did you interact well with a frustrated co-worker? Acknowledge this of yourself.

But then also notice the areas in which you need to improve. Did you get defensive about some tough feedback, or did anxiety prevent you from talking to your boss? Be careful to learn from those mistakes, and do better in the future.

There is always room to sharpen your skills when it comes to emotional intelligence. Enrolling in a training program can help you if you’re feeling stuck. And you can always read a book or hire a coach to help you boost your emotional intelligence even more.

Beyond Physicalism

Philosopher Hedda Hassel Mørch defends the idea that consciousness pervades the cosmos

Philosophy has taken a beating lately, even, or especially, from philosophers, who are compulsive critics, even, especially, of their own calling. But bright young women and men still aspire to be full-time truth-seekers in our corrupt, capitalist world. Over the past five years, I have met a bunch of impressive young philosophers while doing research on the mind-body problem. Hedda Hassel Mørch, for example. I first heard Mørch (pronounced murk) speak in 2015 at a New York University workshop on integrated information theory, and I ran into her at subsequent events at NYU and elsewhere. She makes a couple of appearances—one anonymous–in my book Mind-Body Problems. We recently crossed tracks in online chitchat about panpsychism, which proposes that consciousness is a property of all matter, not just brains. I’m a panpsychism critic, she’s a proponent. Below Mørch answers some questions.—John Horgan

Horgan: Why philosophy? And especially philosophy of mind?

Mørch: I remember thinking at some point that if I didn’t study philosophy I would always be curious about what philosophers know. And even if it turned out that they know nothing then at least I would know I wasn’t missing anything.

One reason I was attracted to philosophy of mind in particular was that it seemed like an area where philosophy clearly has some real and useful work to do. In other areas of philosophy, it might seem that many central questions can either be deflated or taken over by science. For example, in ethics, one might think there are no moral facts and so all we can do is figure out what we mean by the words “right” and “wrong”. And in metaphysics, questions such as “is the universe infinite” can now, at least arguably, be understood as scientific questions. But consciousness is a phenomenon which is obviously real, and the question of how it arises from the brain is clearly a substantive, not merely verbal question, which does not seem tractable by science as we know it. As David Chalmers says, science as we know it can only tackle the so-called easy problems of consciousness, not the hard problem.

Horgan: Did you have any odd experiences of self-awareness as a child, like those described in this column, or mystical experiences? And if so have they influenced your philosophy?

Mørch: When I was maybe 12, I remember sitting on a bus and suddenly being very struck and puzzled by the fact that I am me and not someone else. That sounds like the same kind of experience as you had, though not as intense. I’m not sure how it influenced me, but it might have made me more inclined toward to deflationary views of the self along the lines of Derek Parfit, Galen Strawson and Buddhism. The experience represented the self as very hard to make sense of, and if so it makes sense to deflate it as much as possible.

Horgan: I’ve called integrated information theory an example of neo-geocentrism, in which we project human traits onto nature. Am I being too critical?

Mørch: IIT implies a form of panpsychism, which projects consciousness onto nature, and this might seem geocentric or anthropocentric. But one person’s anthropocentrism is another person’s anti-exceptionalism. If everything is conscious, then humans and animals are not special exceptions to the rest of nature, in the sense of uniquely possessing the rare property of consciousness; rather, we are just like everything else. From this perspective, panpsychism is more in the spirit of the heliocentric revolution than a step back to geocentrism.

I should also clarify that neither IIT nor panpsychism in general project advanced consciousness, such as human-like cognition or self-awareness, onto most parts of nature, only extremely simple qualities. Projecting advanced consciousness would be unreasonable and perhaps geo- or anthropocentric. But projecting simple consciousness, in my view, actually contributes to an elegant solution to the mind-body problem which removes all the “epicycles” generated by physicalism and dualism—just like heliocentrism did to geocentrism.

Horgan: Okay, maybe I have been too critical. But can you tell readers, briefly, why they should take panpsychism seriously?

Mørch: Physicalism and dualism are the two main alternatives to panpsychism.

Physicalism implies that consciousness doesn’t exist. Physical science cannot capture what it’s like for someone to have conscious experiences, such as seeing red or being in pain, or any of the qualitative or subjective features of consciousness. So if consciousness is physical, it’s not qualitative or subjective, and therefore not really consciousness after all.

Horgan: Did you have any odd experiences of self-awareness as a child, like those described in this column, or mystical experiences? And if so have they influenced your philosophy?

Mørch: When I was maybe 12, I remember sitting on a bus and suddenly being very struck and puzzled by the fact that I am me and not someone else.

Horgan: Okay, maybe I have been too critical. But can you tell readers, briefly, why they should take panpsychism seriously?

Mørch: Physicalism and dualism are the two main alternatives to panpsychism.

Dualism implies that consciousness doesn’t matter. Physical science shows no sign of any non-physical forces causally influencing the brain or body—everything seems explainable in neurological, electrochemical, or other physical terms. So if consciousness is wholly distinct from the physical world, as dualism says, it probably doesn’t influence our actions at all; it’s purely epiphenomenal.

Panpsychism avoids both of these consequences. Put very simply [more details here], according to panpsychism, science only describes matter from the outside: it tells us how physical things relate to each other and to us, not how they are in themselves. But every outside needs an inside. We know the inside of one physical object, namely ourselves, and this inside is consciousness. Why not think other things have the same kind of inside as well? If so, consciousness gets to play an essential role in the physical world, without being reduced to something purely physical.

Horgan: Okay, but will science ever find a solution to the solipsism problem?

Mørch: One might think panpsychism solves this problem, because it tells us that all physical things are conscious. But panpsychism does not imply that all things are conscious as a whole. Human brains (or certain parts of it) are conscious as a whole, but tables and chairs are probably not—they should rather be regarded as mere collections of conscious particles. The question is whether the same holds for, for example, insects, jellyfish and plants.

To solve this problem, we should of course look at empirical correlations between human consciousness and physical properties of the brain. From this, we can reasonably infer that animals fairly similar to us are also conscious (as a whole), but when it comes to organisms like jellyfish, which are very different from us, I think we cannot determine in a principled way whether they are similar enough to also be conscious (as a whole). Therefore, it seems that empirical studies alone cannot give a full answer.

I think IIT has a promising approach to this. It says that not only must we study correlations between consciousness and brain properties from the empirical, third person or objective perspective, we must also consider the structure of consciousness as it appears to us from the first-person or subjective perspective, and infer the physical criteria of consciousness from this. This is known as the axiomatic argument for IIT [more details here]. One might object to the specifics of this argument, but as a general approach it seems to me like the only clear way forward, assuming the problem can’t be solved in a standard empirical way.

Horgan: I’ve argued that we will never find a single solution to the mind-body problem. What do you think?

Mørch: I think we already found it, the problem is just to convince more people!

Horgan: What about quantum mechanics? Does it have anything to do with consciousness?

Mørch: As I said, science only captures the physical world “from the outside”, or more precisely, in terms of its relational structure, and this also holds for quantum mechanics. Some seem to think quantum structure is more likely to be connected to consciousness than classical structure, perhaps because features such as indeterminism and non-locality are perceived as distinctively mentalistic. But as I see it, any kind of physical structure is equally in need of an “inside” or an intrinsic, and therefore conscious, basis.

One might think quantum entanglement has something to do with mental combination, that is, with how simple particle consciousness combines into complex human and animal-type consciousness. This is roughly because an entangled system is irreducible to the sum of its parts similarly to how combined consciousness seems to be, and perhaps also because, within a conscious mind, information seems to be shared instantly between all its parts, which can also be seen as similar to how entanglement works. One problem with this idea, though, is that our combined consciousness is confined to the brain, but entanglement is not, insofar as evidence suggests that the whole universe is an entangled system.

Horgan: Thanks, for a comment on quantum mechanics and consciousness, that’s surprisingly clear. Do you believe, and perhaps hope, that science, even if it cannot understand the mind, might transform it through brain chips or other technologies?

Mørch: I’m not very informed about this, but it seems to me that the brain is so complex that it might be difficult to drastically interfere with it such that consciousness changes in an interesting way rather than just breaking down. I also think there are so many interesting experiences available already, so I don’t strongly hope for it.

Horgan: Do you believe in free will?

Mørch: I don’t know—William James puts it nicely when he says that the question of free will is undecidable in theory, and so, “craving the sense of either peace or power”, we can only choose to believe in it or not on pragmatic grounds.

I also like Galen Strawson’s view (from his book Freedom and Belief) that although we have good reason to think free will is impossible, most of us are still psychologically incapable of not believing in it, but maybe with practices such as meditation we can eventually become capable of not believing it. But it seems to me perhaps the opposite could also happen: if we develop our minds in a certain way maybe we can come to understand how some kind of freedom is possible after all.

Horgan: What about God?

Mørch: Not really. But there is a religious view I find interesting, which is pandeism: the view that God used to exist, and be the only thing that existed, and then transformed himself into the universe, and so no longer exists. The reason God did this was basically for fun, or to see what happened. And maybe at some point the universe will transform itself back into God—that would be like nirvana or heaven. But then eventually God would get bored again and start the cycle over. As I understand it, this is close to some parts of Hindu cosmology.

It might also resonate with your psychedelic vision of God that you’ve written about? Though this version seems less depressing.

Horgan: I like that! I think I’m a pandeist! What’s your utopia?

Mørch: I suspect that true utopias are impossible, because all pleasure will eventually get boring, and to avoid boredom one must take the risk of pain. As Schopenhauer says, “Life swings like a pendulum backward and forward between pain and boredom”, except the pendulum also swings through their opposites, pleasure and fun, which at least makes the cycle more bearable, and worth partaking in. This is also partly why the pandeistic view I just described appeals to me.

But until boredom sets in, I would probably like to spend some time in the garden of Epicurus, where they lived a simple life focused on avoiding pain and enjoying simple food, philosophy and friendship. I especially like Seneca’s description here.
