Holocaust Remembrance Day on 21st

Tomorrow, April 21, is Holocaust Remembrance Day in a time when denial of historic events is gaining steam. The news, once truth driven, is now so agenda driven that few know where truth ends and fiction begins. And because of that, even fewer people concern themselves with history these days. I wish I was only talking about those who live in banana republics run by tin horn dictators, or those who live in middle eastern countries where “death to America” is chanted by misled crowds daily, but I am not.

So it is important to subject ourselves to documentaries that many of us might find shocking and distasteful in order that we remember the past, lest we be doomed to forget and thus repeat it.

The video above is part 2 out of 8 parts you can go to You Tube to watch, though no more than one or two would be enough to refresh our memories of such horror of the systematic and brutal killing of 6,000,000 Jews, as well as millions of Gypsies, gays, overzealous Christians, Poles, etc..., by the Nazis in WW2.

Darfur is where humanity is repeating such atrocities today...

Here are parts 1, 3, 4, 5, etc... of the Nazi Concentration Camps documentaries created by the US Army under Gen. Eisenhower.

For more information on Holocaust Remembrance Day and issues pertaining to it, feel free to explore Pam Geller's blog, Atlas Shrugs, HERE and HERE.

Here is a video I found at Alice the Camel on the subject of Irena Sendler, a Catholic who saved 2,500 Jewish children from the holocaust.

What Historical Figure Does Obama Bring To Mind?

That is quite a loaded question. I'm sure some of you will say Che Guevara, while others dare compare him to Lincoln or JFK. But when I think of Barack Hussein Obama I think of a man who is very gifted, yet horribly flawed. I see a man who is articulate, charismatic, handsome, and who appeals to a mass audience. But I also see a man who has associated with and surrounded himself with several hate-filled extremists in an effort to advance questionable ideologies, but most of all to advance his own ambitions. Now when I put all that together I come up with no name on anyone else's list. The name that comes to mind is none other than the late, Albert Speer.

Now please don't email me with complaints about me calling Obama a Nazi, because I don't actually believe he is. Obama is much more likely a Marxist, anyway. The comparison between Obama and Speer has less to do with the choices in ideology these two men made, but more to do with their mindsets and how their respective goals were reached.

They have both been opportunists to the utmost degree. Like Obama, Speer was a gifted, articulate, and handsome man who also allowed himself to be used by hate-filled, twisted men to advance extremist causes, while using them in return to climb up the ladder of power. And both Speer and Obama tossed their associates under the bus when they were no longer of use. Speer may have been on board to assist in Hitler's assassination plot, while not actually taking part in the attempt itself, while Obama disowns people from his past who embarrass him or are no longer of use in his election prospects. Both men also have attempted to be all things to all people. Like Speer, Obama thinks he can be of one extreme ideology one moment and then mainstream the next. It all depends upon who he's with and what prize he's aiming for.

But the main comparison has to do with each man's ability to be comfortable with the systematic, mass slaughter of millions of human beings. Albert Speer turned a blind eye to the mass extermination of the European Jewish population, while Obama seems comfortable today with our government allowing mass killings of millions of unborn babies every year. In fact he consistently voted against even allowing babies who survived abortion attempts a chance at life. He chose instead to allow these newborns to be disposed of after forced strangulation, mutilation, or abandonment. And if Obama is elected President, the first thing he plans to do is sign the Freedom Of Choice Act which would strip every restriction on abortion from all levels of government. Read more about that HERE.

Speer, along with the other Nazis, advanced to a position of power due mainly to fallout from The Great Depression. Today's rough economic times seem to be propelling Obama, along with many Democrats responsible for our current mess, into power. A drowning man will reach for even the tip of a sword if he thinks it will save him. God help us all.

Irena Sendler VS Al Gore

I overlooked this last month. Better late than never.

Isn't it odd how the Nobel prizes have become so mired in politics that a huckster of junk science could beat out someone like Irena Sendler? But then they probably asked themselves, so what has Irena done lately?

Or have things gotten so shallow in our world that Princess Diana would have beaten Mother Teresa for the Peace Prize (if they were both nominated for it today)? It is a fair question considering that when they died only days apart, Diana received overwhelming press coverage while Mother Teresa's death was treated as an after-thought. That was another revealing moment for the world.

The truth is that Mother Teresa beat Jimmy Carter for the prize in 1979, back when the prize meant something. But I believe it was soiled beyond repair when Arafat shared it in 1994, which was proven again when they caved in to Carter in 2002.
