Nazis on the Frontier, as Usual

Where the Rockets Come DownThe lesson of Wernher von Braunby Chet Raymo

In July 1943, rocket scientist Wernher von Braun traveled to Adolf Hitler’s military headquarters in East Prussia to brief his Fuhrer on the A4 Wunderwaffe, or wonder weapon.

Von Braun launched into his spiel: “The bird will carry a ton of amatol in her nose, but will hit the ground at a speed of over 1,000 meters per second, and the shattering force of the impact will multiply the destructive effect of the warhead.”

Hitler interrupted: “I don’t accept that thesis. It seems to me that the sole consequence of that high impact velocity is that … the warhead will bury itself in the ground, and the explosive force will merely throw up a lot of dirt.”

Von Braun returned to the rocket research facility at Peenemunde and ordered a study of the problem. He later recalled: “I’ll be damn if he wasn’t absolutely right. Hitler may have been a bad man, but he surely was not stupid.”

      Hitler was what could be termed ‘the last of the self-taught geniuses’; in the tradition of: Isaac Newton, Johann Kepler, Robert Boyle, Michael Faraday and Nikola Tesla: his knowledge of many subjects from politics to philosophy to literature to science was deep and wide-ranging!

      The problem was: he was opposed and thwarted @ nearly every twist and turn of the road by all sorts of jew shills: in the bureaucracy, the Reichstag, the Wehrmact and the academy….left-over ‘race traitors’ from the Weimar years who managed to hide their true allegiances and “smile and smile and be a villain!

      It is more than probable that Hitler could have won WWII IF he had to have ‘a free reign’ to assume total command from the out-set and IF the WaffenSS had to have been several times the size it was.

      Adolf Hitler was, as Savitiri Devi said, ‘truly: the great hope of the White Race’.

      If he had to have prevailed, our lives would be so immesurably better than they are to-day as to be almost un-imaginable!

      Whether or not the White Race will be graced with another semi-divine avatar like the Führer, who knows?

      The probability that the white race, led by National Socialist Germany, was on the road to a new golden age was high in 1939. With the total destruction of National Socialism and the death of forty or so million of the best aryans by the end of the 1940s that probability had shrunk to almost zero. The possibility that the white race will some day achieve its destiny still exists. However, we now face a really daunting challenge and the prognosis does not look promising at present. If we get through the grim times ahead and get back to the positive position we had in 1939 we will have to make sure that our race has been purified of the type of treacherous scum who were the willing dupes of the kikes in their war against Hitler. Brilliant as he was Hitler could not even control the traitors inside Germany, not to mind elsewhere. The conditions will probably be very different but the next time around there must be no tolerance of white traitors anywhere.

      For shame, white people are indeed their own worst enemies, especially the English speaking brance of the race. The enemies within the gates are legion, and worse yet, we are fighting a sea of ignorance, running at high tide. So it was 70 years ago, and ditto today. Unfortunately it’s much, much worse now, as our people are rotting from within and programmed for extinction from without.
      Durch die vernichtung NS deutschlands, haben wir zwar, vieles verloren. Shade!

      I never understood why Hitler didn’t send assassins to America to kill off the jew media propaganda moguls. After all, it was the jew-owned radio, newspapers and movies that were the warmongers in the USA, and not the average war-weary from WWI American citizen. Perhaps that particular situation was unprecedented in history at that time and it’s easy for us to see this in hindsight.

      Now that we see what Hitler probably didn’t, what are we going to do about it?
