It is supremely ironic that Adolf Hitler was elected by an instrument, the
Weimar Constitution, that was created and promulgated by a Jew called Preuß
after Germany's defeat in World War I. Before that time, democratic elections
were unknown in Germany, since Germany was a country ruled by monarchy.

Adolf Hitler's National Socialists were legitimately elected to power,
together with other nationalist parties, on January 30, 1933.

Readers of the Zundelsite must understand that after World War I, the German
nation tried for 13 long years to solve its pressing economic problems by
electing political parties of the Leftist (Social Democrat), Centrist (Zentrum
Party) and various other nationalist movements caused by the lost war and the
crippling sanctions imposed by the Treaty of Versailles. None of these attempts
showed any success.

None of the post-WWI regimes were able to stop the dangerous drift toward
anarchy and a potential Bolshevik revolution in Germany - with all the bloodshed
and destruction caused by that Marxist nightmare.

In an act of supreme collective will, born out of fear for the future and
exasperation at the failure of the other political parties and the Weimar
Republic itself, the Germans opted for Adolf Hitler's radical reforms and
solutions in democratic elections.

The Jewish-Marxist-Liberal oligarchy, who had usurped power in Germany after
the country's defeat in 1918 by fair means and foul, slowly lost the power
struggle. They lost it only 15 years later because they failed miserably and had
nothing to offer - except more national humiliation, more unemployment, more
corruption, more vice, more degeneration, and ultimately more hopelessness.

Hitler offered hope and identified the source of the problem. He pointed out
to the German electorate the devastating political, economic and cultural
dominance many Jews had acquired in the Weimar Republic - and promised his
desperate people sweeping and lasting solutions to the "Jewish Problem."

He promised them, in speech after speech, in numerous articles, booklets and
broadcasts, as far back as the early 1920s, in "Mein Kampf", and in his 25 point
Party Program, that he would take Germany back for the Germans, once he was
elected.

The German people spoke decisively through the ballot box, and Hitler soon
delivered on his election promises of work, peace and honor in careful but
decisive legislative initiatives and decrees.

The Communists, many of whom were Jewish, at first tried to undermine and
then overthrow Hitler in a desperate clandestine but violent revolution - and
failed. They were crushed by the "Enabling Act" - an emergency decree which
allowed Hitler to suspend some civil rights and adopt sweeping powers to
dissolve political parties etc.

This Act was passed by a majority of the German Reichstag or Parliament. It
was perfectly legal and legitimate under the Weimar Constitution. Similar
actions had been taken previously by other chancellors of different ideological
outlook. Nothing ever came of it. The world did not care. Only Hitler cleaned
house - more resolutely and thoroughly than his predecessors.

The International Jewish organizations next tried to achieve the overthrow of
Hitler from the outside by a worldwide economic smear-and-vilification campaign
and by a brutal global economic boycott against National Socialist Germany, ably
described in detail by Edwin Black, a Jewish author, in his book "The Transfer
Agreement" and several other books. One potential instrument of this planned
overthrow was the Jewish community of approximately 500,000, which had acquired
great influence during the Weimar Republic.

It is against this historical background that one must see the provisions of
the "Nuremberg Laws." The Jews had determined that Germany was to be crushed!
The "Nuremberg Laws" were, in part, a desperate act by a regime not yet firmly
in power to forestall this possibility - beset as it was internally and
externally by enemies who had stated for almost 15 years that they were going to
crush the German Liberation Movement of Adolf Hitler - by any means necessary!
The German people, who had toiled and suffered under the Weimar conditions and
corruption for so long, believed in Hitler. They reaffirmed their belief in his
government by an overwhelming electoral show of approval and confidence in
1933.

Thus, Hitler survived the various challenges to his regime and went on to
become the most loved and adored leader in German history. The rest is history!
He promulgated the Nuremberg Laws without worrying about being politically
incorrect and without apologies to his enemies. He knew that, given the nature
of the enemy and what was at stake for Germany and the world, drastic problems
called for drastic measures and remedies. He wanted the Jews out of Germany -
and preferably out of Europe.

He tried to take the sting out of economic hardships by arranging for paid
early retirement, relocation allowances, retraining programs etc. The Jews
emigrated in an orderly fashion in great numbers - to Palestine, England and
America.

Once the Jews were neutralized, Germany recovered under Hitler. It prospered
economically. It healed itself socially. It ended the class war. It made
spectacular technological advances and blossomed culturally. It recovered its
pride and honor among nations.

These were astounding changes in a very short period of time. A policy of
physical fitness training and positive outlook on life soon led to a healthier
mental outlook. Once-alarming suicide rates plunged. The crime rate nose-dived.
Scientific discoveries showed great stride.

Never forget: Hitler was a democratically elected leader. He and his
government had to be bombed out of office in the most vicious, barbaric war ever
foisted on a people and a whole planet by his opponents. And for what?
