So many nazis were hired by america, that they have a super strong presence now. The video BEHIND THE SMOKE CURTAIN: THE 9/11 PENTAGON ATTACK says that the evil/diabolical nazis in the white house did 9/11. We have been in the middle of the 2nd holocaust a long time -- each time a bomb is dropped, a chemical is sprayed on the land and waters, radiation is spewing from Fukushima on a constant basis, fluoride is constantly being put into toothpaste and drinking water, GMOs and pesticides are in the foods. Cops shooting people in the back. CIA/SWAT tearing apart people's farms and entering homes without knocking. Wars that are about taking over the resources of other countries. And prisons are about breaking up families and stopping competition. Vaccines that are weapons. All of this is a genocidal plan to free the world of billions of people. What these communists/nazis/ psychopaths causing everyone else to be out of balance, DON'T know is that this dimension is not our home. Out of these bodies we vibrate a whole lot faster as electrical energy fields. Quantum physics has been left out of schools and hospitals so even the idea of death has got so many people scared that they become sick, just what the medical cartel wants. BUT there can be no death because we are constantly being created. And nonlocality has been proven. So we are all ONE energy and light, which means these nazis/communists are literally hurting themselves, TOO. This is the information that physicists know but are not allowed to tell us, except the physicist Barbara Brennan that wrote the book HANDS OF LIGHT.

These people become vocal and pressure others around them to conform with the authorities in doing atrocities. One stark example. After the second world war, the British celebrated war criminal aka Churchill, entered Greece with an army, dismissed the government and rounded up the Greeks where were the German collaborators to form a government. And more than that to spark a civil war and exterminate 10% of the population, either in war or famine or tortures of those Geeks who refused to fight other Greeks. It was justified on the idea that the Greek communist party would call on Russia to support the government. This was hardly true. Firstly those that fought the Germans and the government were socialist as there are in other European countries like Sweden. Secondly Churchill went to Russia prior to entering Greece and cut a deal with Stalin. We have this and you get that etc. This is the percentages agreement. Why was this done? It was done to create the illusion of a cold war and Russia as an aggressor that might take over the free world. It helped those that profit from war, like the Rothschild''s, who boast that they have made all their money funding all wars since Napoleon on both sides. While it has been presented as a Greek civil war, the world population has been kept in the dark AND willing to fight in a cold war scenarios that are all a set up. Is it the ordinary people's fault. No. They have been deceived on the one hand and there are inhumane people on the other presenting these scenarios as a real danger to the so-called free world.

You mean psychopathy. Psychosis is very different from psycho-pathological behavior. Psychosis is separation from reality (so you don't have to face it).

I think this is the approach Jung took when he discussed the shadow self, our darker instincts and potential for evil. I later learned that Jung was guilty of exploiting opportunities during that time and of expressing views that were Anti-Semitic---distancing himself from Freud, as well. The most fascinating thing I've ever seen was in "Nazis: A Warning From History". A municipal archive was discovered in a small German town filled with letters from Germans accusing and betraying their fellow Jewish neighbors. It started with anonymous letters and concluded with genocide. I believe in a Marxist explanation. It was opportunism, thievery, and exploitation, pure and simple.

I thought this was a pretty good, thought provoking presentation. However, it mostly concentrates on the idea that the Jewish people were almost the sole victims in the Holocaust. There were plenty of other people that were being rounded up, terrorized and eventually killed. The Russians and the Chinese lost about 20 million human beings per country in that war. That war, and the insanity that spread around the world because of it was very inclusive when it came to indiscriminate slaughter. I also think it was more than a bit naive of some of the presenters and the audience to laugh at a snarky reference to Trump’s remarks about the media being the enemy of the people as if such a thing was unthinkable. You can bet that the media in Germany before and during the war helped to create the psychological conditions amongst the populace to implement the goals of the Third Reich. Their was a constant onslaught of propaganda handed to the media to dispense by Joseph Goebbels and they did so without question as their existence depended on it. Goebbels had declared “There must be one public opinion for all.” He boasted about using the media “like a giant Wurlitzer.” Newspapers and especially radio had a profound influence on shaping the German public. You can be sure that no contrary opinions from the public were allowed and that those trying would be censored or severely punished. Does this sound at all familiar currently?

Another thing you don't understand is that human losses in a war are not evaluated by the absolute number of people killed but by its percentage of the total ethnic group's population. Russians lost about 15% of its population while the percentage of Jews systematically exterminated was 60% of the entire Jewish population of Europe.

Wars are biologically driven. You won’t stop them, with talk of love and peace, you might be able to hold them off for awhile that way. But in the end the human species is not only in competition with the animals for land and resources, they are also in competition with their fellow man. Because mankind needs the protection and services of a tribe around them( pack, we are socially pack animals) Territorial conquerors or warlords seldom kill all of their whole own tribe.Bloodline) Plus there is the tribal link of close cellular ties, because of generational tribal intermarriage. Other tribes however are just a territorial threat. The men and boys in particular are a threat to the new warlords if they are from a different tribal bloodline.

What happened during WWII not only to the Jewish people was awful but if you are truly interested in examining the question what it is about us that allow these things to happen you need to broaden your perspective. Not only should you ask what we can do to prevent this from happening to the Jewish people. What we should be asking is what we can do to prevent this from happening to happening at all to any people. When you look at it like that is when you become to realize that we are not all that different than the German people of the 1930's and 40's.

We are naive if we think that another holocaust could never happen again in a educated, civilized and modern country. Germany was all that and even considered itself “Christian“. What it didn’t do was believe in Jesus nor follow His teachings. By the way, I grew up in Germany, nothing has really changed, if anything there are even fewer believers now than there were before the war. Without God every evil is possible.

Ich bin auch in Deutschland aufgewachsen und mein Vater war Soldat in Russland 6 Jahre im 2. Weltkrieg. Ich glaube auch dass dies sich wiederholen wird und bin der selben Meinung. Wohne in USA

You are just imposing your religious beliefs on others , frankly it’s stupid and pathetic. If you had been born in another place or time you would likely worship some other god, idol, deity and Jesus would mean nothing to you. People wearing crosses and believing in your Jesus have and will happily commit atrocities.

My great grandfather immigrated from Poland to the US in the late 1930s. I never got the chance to ask him why.

Same and there’s a lot of secrecy in my family on my dad’s side, who are also Jewish.

My Great Great Grandfather was in both of the Russian Revolutions 1915 and 1917. His son, my Grandfather, finally left Poland during WWII. Polish people made roads with crushed bones of people exterminated in concentration camps. Looked similar to the crushed shells still in use at Cape Cod today ~

Excellent debate. Enjoyed it enormously. Thoughts and prayers for everyone who died in the Holocaust from Ireland.
