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.

grew up in the United States, associating with the New York City jazz and coffee scene in the 1950s. ". . I've always said that I wanted to have smooth sailing, but I couldn't help rocking the boat. Rocking seems to be in my genes". As a subtitle I’ve chosen “Stepping out of line,” which is a movement my feet can’t seem to avoid making.

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.

Tomfoolery in the Land of Wicky-Wacky-Woo

According to Church Law it is ethical for a man to infect his whole family with aids, including his children. For it is Mortal Sin to prevent this from happening by the use of condoms….A man who has been infected with aids is justified in cohabiting with his wife. If he uses condoms, he is committing a Mortal Sin.
- Monsignor Carlo Caffarra, Dean of the Institute of Family Research “Johannes Paul II” Täglich Alles, Feb. 14, 1993

Masturbation is a sin more grievous than the rape of one’s own daughter. The latter is more “natural” since an incestuous rape can at least lead to the birth of a child.
- Peter de Rose, author and former Dean of Corpus Christi College, England, Täglich Alles, Feb. 14, 1993

Let us give Caffarra and de Rosa the benefit of a doubt. Perhaps they really mean what they say, and perhaps they really think that they are speaking on behalf of the Deity. If so, they are rigidly adhering to principles, even if it means the disregarding common sense and totally negating compassion.

I know that I’m letting my emotions get the better of me, but I say they are not on the side of the angels but rather are trodding are straight and narrow path to perdition in seven league boots. On the other hand, you can’t condemn a man for not knowing any better, so their destination can’t be subterranean. It’s a delightful little terrestrial state known as the Land of Wicky-Wacky-Woo.

Michael Guttenbrunner (1919-2004)

Habsburg 1967

Long after, after the catastrophies
his people had experienced,
Habsburg walks through the remnants
and unties the knots.
As he enters the gates of the Republic,
porcelain rattles and silver jingles
in the Hofburg, and a Pannonic swan
wearing spurs climbs to the pulpit.
Lichtentenstein rigidly witnesses the spectacle,
holding a Sudeten glass of Helvetian wine,
and Bohemian camp followers scrape their feet,
giving the Roman Kaiser the German salute.
A nag in old Imperial Carinthia neighs to that -
the echo comes grumbling to Mantua in chains.
Memory grumbles: worse things
have occurred since time began,
but Hapsburg’s deeds were bad enough.

The Atlantic Review, Spring, 1976, London.

February 1934

The party still great by day
disintegrated overnight.
A dwarf appeared and took
its gunpowder and lead.
From Vienna to Hinterkreuth
all marching ceased
and its, power lay smashed.

Translated from the German
by Herbert Kuhner

* Hinterkreuth - a town in Bavaria; Germany

No End in Sight

The pernicious spirit of the Third Reich has been channeled into the arts, flowing with great ease, with  no end in sight. The sado-masochistic ideology espouses extreme forms of violence such as pedophilia, rape and murder, including political assassination, and the vilification and killing of cripples. Its advocates operate under the sanctified carapace of art, while journalists bow low in abject approval and politicians dance to their  tunes.

Schuschnigg Prevents Bloodshed

The Federal President has asked me to inform the Austrian people that we will give way to force. We have ordered our armed forces to withdraw without resisting in case the invasion takes place and to await the decisions of the coming hours, for we are not willing to spill German blood at this grave time.
- Chancellor Kurt Schuschnigg, Ravag Radio Address, March 11, 1938

Schuschnigg_1.jpgYes, German blood was not spilled during the “rape of Austria.” While the rape was taking place, Austrian gentiles became Germans, and since Schuschnigg included Austrian blood in German blood, I will adhere to his classification and exclusively refer to “German blood.” here.

After the rape, anti-Nazi and Jewish blood was spilled in the annexed area, and kept being spilled. Then Czech blood, and then Polish blood, and then Dutch, Belgian, French and English blood, along with some German blood. Then Greek blood and Yugoslav blood, and so on. Then Russian blood - and finally much German blood.

What Else Is New?

Herbert Kuhner

Here’s a quote from a document: ” Do not hesitate to use your firearm, not even when the border is breached in the company of women and children, which is a tactic the traitors have often used”

STASI.jpgThe document is dated October 1, 1973, and it stems from the Stasi, the East German intelligence organization.

Yes, the fleeing traitors were using women and children for cover, so it was okay to pick them off. After all, was for a good cause.

Women and children have become a legitimate target.

So, what else is new!
