The Destruction of Ethnic Germans and German Prisoners of War in Yugoslavia, 1945-1953
By Tomislav Sunic

David Duke Comments: Dr. Sunic once again exposes the myopic controlled media’s presentation of the Second World War. Terrible atrocities against European peoples are virtually ignored, while Jewish tragedies are daily fare. This week, the leading news magazine in Croatia, Globus, printed a long interview with me that dealt in part with Dr. Sunic’s excellent work. Aside from a bit of sensationalism about my Klan affiliation of 30 years ago, the long article was in an interview format and was very accurate. In Dr. Sunic’s words, “prima, with no gimmicks and great pictures.” It is great to know that there are still some major publications in the European world who report honestly and accurately. I am proud to publish Dr. Sunic’s article here and urge davidduke.com readers to visit his website frequently.– David Duke

From the European and American media, one can often get the impression that World War II needs to be periodically resurrected to give credibility to financial demands of one specific ethnic group, at the expense of others. The civilian deaths of the war’s losing side are, for the most part, glossed over. Standard historiography of World War II is routinely based on a sharp and polemical distinction between the “ugly” fascists who lost, and the “good” anti-fascists who won, and few scholars are willing to inquire into the gray ambiguity in between. Even as the events of that war become more distant in time, they seemingly become more politically useful and timely as myths.

German military and civilian losses during and especially after World War II are still shrouded by a veil of silence, at least in the mass media, even though an impressive body of scholarly literature exists on that topic. The reasons for this silence, due in large part to academic negligence, are deep rooted and deserve further scholarly inquiry. Why, for instance, are German civilian losses, and particularly the staggering number of postwar losses among ethnic Germans, dealt with so sketchily, if at all, in school history courses? The mass media — television, newspapers, film and magazines — rarely, if ever, look at the fate of the millions of German civilians in central and eastern Europe during and following World War II.

Zionist ‘Gorilla’ Now Being Discussed

By Michael Collins Piper — AFP

The long-suppressed topic of inordinate Zionist Jewish influence on American foreign policy is now being openly debated—as it should be. Independent voices that had been condemned for years for daring to talk about the power of the Jewish lobby are now being vindicated.

The release of a “controversial” new book, The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy, by two distinguished foreign policy specialists, John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago and Stephen Walt of Harvard— coming on the heels of a frenzy surrounding former President Jimmy Carter’s candid criticism of that lobby— has sparked not only widespread discussion of the Jewish lobby, but also public consideration of the more important question: “Is America’s special relationship with Israel in America’s best interests?”

The debate has pried open what Leslie Gelb, president emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations, admitted— in a critical review of the book in The New York Times September 23—is a subject “that many Middle East experts talk about mostly in private.” The Times headlined Gelb’s review with the notation that Mearsheimer and Walt “contend that the Jewish lobby jeopardizes the national security of the United States.”

First launched in 2006 as an academic paper, there was—as the New York-based Jewish newspaper, Forward, noted correctly—little that was new in its pages. Anyone who had been reading American Free Press or who— going back to the 1960s—followed the work of Liberty Lobby, the Washington-based populist institution, knew the facts being reported by the two academics.

Ron Paul Needs Nation-Wide Commercials Now

By James Buchanan – EURO

Ron Paul just added 1.2 million dollars to his campaign chest in an incredible one week fund-raiser. The organizers of the fund-raiser cleverly set up their web page so that it would flash up the names of the latest donors and their home towns. People from all over the nation and US soldiers based all over the world were logging on and sending money to Ron Paul’s campaign. Some people were sending multiple donations just so their name would flash up on the screen additional times so their family and friends could see them donating.

Simultaneous with the highly successful fund-raiser was a straw poll in New Jersey, in which Ron Paul scored 72 percent, giving him 11 first place finishes in straw polls. In an extremely quiet acknowledgment of Ron Paul’s popularity and fund-raising ability, one source reports that the RNC has invited Ron Paul and four other presidential candidates to “a special dinner (on Oct. 16th) to benefit the RNC Presidential Trust, featuring our 2008 Presidential candidates.” This is the first time that anyone in a position of power has admitted that Ron Paul is a top tier presidential candidate. Over the last two months, Ron Paul was repeatedly excluded from events for his anti-war position, which the neocons fear like a vampire fears a crucifix.

Ron Paul is still suffering from a mainstream media news black out and he needs to do something about this immediately. Ron Paul needs to start running commercials to introduce himself to the American public. He could start with some relatively inexpensive late night commercials on Cable TV as an experiment. If the commercials brought in a lot of new people and enough additional donations to pay for themselves, then Paul should expand the commercial campaign and take it to prime time.
