Remigration

Another topic I have “touched upon” is “remigration.” This word is a neologism, which means coming back to where you have been driven out.I've always said that I wanted a smooth ride, but I couldn't help rocking the boat. Rocking seems to be in my genes.

Remarkable People

On the road I have traveled, I have met many remarkable people. First I name my friend and mentor the late Emile Capouya. “Mike” encouraged me over the years and published two of my books in New York.

Vienna Today

Returning to my birthplace has given me a unique opportunity of writing on Third Reich Revisionism. This topic interlinks with Violence under the Guise of Art like pieces of a puzzle to reveal how the past manifests itself in the present.

Bashing Bush

Herbert Kuhner

My very best friend has a picture of George and Laura in his office. I let him know that as long as that photo remained in that place of honor, I’d have one of that charming couple Adolf and Eva H. in my bedroom.

Okay put Adolf down, but lay off Eva! Wasn’t her love as pure as can be? Adolf may have been a monster to others, but he was Eva’s ideal. Isn’t that what true love is about?! Loving someone in spite of all his imperfections. Well, needless to say, Adolf isn’t exactly my favorite historical figure, so I’ll leave that romance be.

Back to George! He’s an anathema to me, and I can’t stop using him as negative subject-matter.

Strangely enough, the friend I mentioned is not the only friend I have who has such a lapse in taste. But I should make a resolution to stop rubbing it in. Don’t the Bush adherents suffer enough? Do they need me to make matters worse?EvaBraun & Adolf H.
