although i started waking up decades ago, for a long time, i was totally cognitive dissonant with the holohoax.

as a german citizen, i grew up with the burden of the 'holocaust guilt' which kept me from loving my folks and my country.

last year, i eventually deeply dove into it, through a collection of facts, similar to what this article say, that i couldnt deny.

it was the numbers that first brought up serious doubt and kept me digging.

if there were ~ 15 million jews world-wide - 5 mio in europe, 500k of them in germany - before ww2, and there were ~ 15 mio jews world-wide after the war, where are those alleged 6 million killed jews come from?

well, it takes a bit of courage to dive into the material. admitting that we be-lie-ved an atroscious lie that hold us hostage til today is a hard pill. a heavy red pill.

Thank you for sharing. The German perspective is very interesting. Can you share your thoughts on history from just before WWI to WW2 and the few years after?

in short: transition struggles. from empire to republic.

as a nation, we are still depressed. ashamed. guilty. patriotism is an alien word. nationalism is a cuss word.

the soccer world championship 2006 in germany was the first time since ww2 that germans allowed themselves to show our flag on windows and cars, to celebrate national pride. it was also the first time that i felt good about being born as a german.

the more i learn about german history - which started to interest me only a few years ago -, the better i understand why my nation has been kept on low profile after ww1, and why people followed hitler to get them out of it (who btw, was no german but austrian^^).

the anglo-saxon world has its roots with the germans. the british royals are german. the anglos and the saxons were warriors from wild central and northern germany which never got conquered by the romans - they got stuck shortly beyond the rhine river, our dense forests and cold climate killed them - who hired themselves out as mercenaries for the british crown. english is a germanic language. half of america has german ancestors.

while the germans left their footprints almost everywhere in the western world, we are still in the process of becoming one people, one folks. our nation consists of many tribes/kingdoms and it was only during the 19th century that we started forming something like 'germany' which then became an empire until the end of ww1.

we are still in the process of finding our national identity. these historic lies dont make it easier, sigh.

What are the Spaniards ties to that lineage? I embrace my European ancestry and I'm hoping my blood is that of warriors.

if you have the heart of a warrior, the DNA doesnt matter so much ;)

different lineage, they have their ties all over south america.

the spanish were romanized early on while my folks in the north were still pagan for long. there are no germanic temples because the forest was our temple.

while the spanish flowered under a pretty moderate islam a thousand years ago - which brought medicine, math, and arts to europe -, the germanic folks fought luciferianism. the north kinda never turned christian, lol; the folks up here took on protestantism at some point of time (seems like they had to) but nowadays, are basically atheist (more than 35%).

truth told, the monarchy all over europe has germanic ties. house of welf, habsburg and hesse sent their children everywhere so they have become domestic royal lineage. i can even see it in their faces, lol...

If nothing else the Spanish just didn't quit fighting against Islamic invasion.
