The Anglo-American Empire and the Rise of Fascism VIII
Dear Horst,
the same degree of blindness, ignorance and conformity that made Fascism, Nazism and Communism possible in the past have made the current, ongoing, Scamdemic possible today, which is why I think it reprehensible to condemn anyone for supporting or believing in a totalitarian ideology, however irrational, absurd or ridiculous its tenets happen to be.
If so few know the truth now, although it’s possible to find it out after half an hour’s research, how much easier was it to manipulate and fool people then? And we have long been manipulated on a massive scale, as Adam Curtis has pointed out. Today, menticide, and the enslavement of the mind if not downright idiocy is the rule, not the exception.
People simply don’t think. The average person one meets believes the most irrational balderdash imaginable (why people condemn or despise the “Dark Ages” is something of a mystery) such as the official story of JFK (that he was killed by a “magic bullet”, which miraculously changed direction) or the official story of 9/11 (that five massive buildings were destroyed by two planes or simply fell down of their own accord) or that masks can be of use against a virus! Surely witches, miracles and black magic make more sense!
The vast majority in the Anglo-Saxon world, with its tradition of openness, democracy and liberty, support mass murder by injection, imprisonment in concentration camps and the abolition of free speech. How can any of them condemn one, single Nazi? Wherein lies the difference? Obviously, there is none, as countless Holocaust survivors have attested. And that is after one ignores the abundance of evidence for imperial crime after crime in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen etc. etc. For anyone in the Anglo-Saxon world to condemn a Nazi is sheer hypocrisy, double-standards and cant, which obviously doesn’t mean that being a Nazi is a good thing, which it isn’t! It simply means that, in the case of the so-called “idealists” (such as your father) as opposed to the out and out criminals (such as Himmler) they didn’t know anything about history, lacked a philosophically trained mind and lived in a world of illusion.
Fascism is, as Kai von Moltke pointed out, not merely the merging of corporation with state (in the same way that the government works for Big Pharma and Big Tech works for the government) but is the political expression of monopolistic capitalism. The transfer and concentration of wealth by the ruling, oligarchic kleptocracy (documented so assiduously by Piketty) over the course of the last half-century both underpins and is the manifestation of the current form of high-tech, digital Fascism, which you think so “unimportant”. That this could very well represent the end of humanity clearly doesn’t bother you.
Of History
Which question one asks is decisive. In the case of Olesya Khromeychuk’s book: “Undetermined” her premise is clear: she doesn’t care about the crimes committed by the Ukrainian Waffen-SS because we know too little about them (he who never looks never finds)! All she’s interested in are two questions: “how did the Division members manage to escape repatriation to the USSR, and how was the UK Screening Commission persuaded to allow them to be moved to the UK?”[1] She fails to answer these two questions to any degree of satisfaction as she seems to lack the intellectual tools, background or the curiosity required to do so.
Yet for all the irrelevant and boring nonsense she writes she reveals two interesting facts: that the Church was directly involved (something Sol Littman ignores entirely) and that the British didn’t (and probably still don’t) believe in anything remotely resembling a “Ukrainian nation”:
“There is no such thing as a Ukrainian nation, and the word “Ukrainian” cannot be used to describe the nationality of any person.”[2]
Sol Littman also fails to ask or answer key questions but he does throw light on the tradition of anti-Semitism in the Ukraine stretching back to the 17th century and on the philosophy of the OUN:
Attain a Ukrainian state or die in the battle for it.
Do not allow anyone to defame the glory or honour of Your Nation.
Remember the great days of our efforts.
Be proud that you are an heir of the struggle for the glory of Volodymyr’s Trident.
Avenge the death of the Great Knights.
Do not speak of the cause with whomever possible, but only whomever necessary.
Do not hesitate to commit the greatest crime, if the good of the Cause demands it.
Regard the enemies of Your Nation with hate and perfidy.
Neither requests, nor threats, nor torture, nor death can compel you to betray a secret.
Aspire to expand the strength, riches, and size of the Ukrainian State even by means of enslaving foreigners.[3]
Obviously points: 7, 8 and 10 are of relevance for understanding the murderous, vicious and nihilistic brand of Ukrainian nationalism we are witnessing today (the kinship to the Nazis is obvious although in many respects the Ukrainians are far worse).
Yet for all his faults Sol Littman provides us with an invaluable document (Appendix “C” from 1989), which deserves to be quoted in my next letter.
What you and Olesya Khromeychuk allude to: the role of the Church requires commentary.
From the evidence provided it seems clear that the Church and the British conspired to save the Ukrainian Waffen-SS division. If one studies history with any degree of care one realizes that the Church, the Americans and the British conspired to create Fascism to begin with (Mussolini worked for British intelligence, Wall Street bankrolled the Nazis, the Church supported Franco, Ante Pavelić, Hitler etc.). Thus, it’s no accident that a priest ran Fascist Slovakia or that priests ran a concentration camp in Croatia or that the Church stayed noticeably silent when the Holocaust happened or that it protected the perpetrators afterwards. The Church, above all else: the Vatican, has a central role in this whole, dreadful affair.
Both the British and Americans actively employed Nazis after the war, most notably Otto Skorzeny and Klaus Barbie, so it’s hardly surprising that they should regard the criminals within the Ukrainian Waffen-SS division as “useful assets”; for the Church they were useful in the crusade against “Communism” and “Russian Orthodoxy”.
The lies, cover-ups, white washes, and the disinformation (that continues to this day) by the Deep State about what really happened and which preceded the transfer of the Ukrainians is the least interesting part of the story.
If one doesn’t see the bigger picture or grasp the deeper truth then one can never hope to fathom what really happened.
I’m sure this letter will perplex and most likely annoy you but it needs to be written all the same. Questions, you will complain, this only raises ever more questions!
Best,
Michael

Thanks for this fascinating and important letter.
The Vatican supported the expansion of the (catholic) Austrian-Hungarian Empire to the east. When the Nazi's took over this Osterweiterung-project, the Vatican followed. Next to Ante Pavelic (and the obvious Bandera) I would like to remind you of the sinister figure of Yaroslav Stetsko. The same Stetsko that showed up in the ABN (Anti-Bolshevik Bloc of Nations) and the ubiquitous WACL (World Anti-Communist League) headed by US general Singlaub.
