When the Nazis Ran Out of Bullets ...(like the US)
Edited on Wed May-26-04 10:57 PM by seventhson
They began to resort to cheaper ways to commit mass murder:

Doubling up on piles of living persons bulldozed into mass graves or shot two with one bullet (mother and daughter, etc.), hooking up exhaust pipes to the backs of their trucks and then driving around with people in the closed trailers; piling people to suffocate into cattle cars (now cargo trailers) under conditions so severe many if not all die; exposing them to disease prone conditions and experimental chemicals and slave labor and torture; or simple starvation.


It seems that the Germans were killing so many people and terrorizing so many that they began running out of bullets and their financier war profiteering wall street bullet manufacturers ET AL (Like Prescott Bush, the Rockefellers and Dulles, Harrimans and Walkers, etc.) could not even keep up with the people-financed (taxed) demand for material for mass death and killing so that "creative killing"(Depleted uranium-type mass death casualty production, etc.) became the mode d'emploi to kill when the bullets were low.

HOW history repeats itself!


The US has killed and shot up so many civilians and people and places that we have shot our f*cking necrophilic wad and now we need to pay Bush's asshole friends MORE money for bullets to waste on genocide and mass murder. Rummy et al are insane men worse than Goebbels, Eichmann, Goering, and the architects of the final solution - they are making us ALL Jews marked for mass death whereever we protest fascism (and remember that that it was often Jews who first protested such fascism in Germany when it first arose as it has now arisen here). Jews are not safe nor gentiles, nor ANYONE who opposes these Nazis.

OUR BULLETS ARE RUNNING LOW: just like the Nazis' did. Everybody needs to watch out because we are in deep shit. Bush shot our load and we are totally spent. And when we run out of bullets we will employ more desperate emthods to fend off our inevitable self-destruction

1. Chilling thought, seventhson
:hi:

Slightly OT: When my first husband was in the Army and going thru OCS in Columbus, GA (about a thousand years ago now), we visited the Infantry Museum (I think it was). The ONLY thing I remember from that visit, and I remember it vividly, was a Nazi winter uniform jacket from toward the end of the war. They were running out of wool and suitable other materials so it had straw woven into it. Amazing.

Yes, desperate times call for desperate measures. I shudder to think ...

2. To Think...
we are depleting our resources to commit mass death.

Just like the Nazis.

Insanity.

Gore is right - the whole Junta must go and the sooner the better.

3. I think he intends to bore us to death with 6 speeches and Lerts!
If Bush's speeches don't put you to sleep you must be a detainee that is being broken down for the contractors in Iraq!

4. WAKE UP AMERICA AND SMELL THE FLESH
smell the palpable, ghastly odor of burning human flesh


WOULD YOU HAVE HELPED?


Any of us who've read about that horrific era are terrified by the thought of it, the photographs, even by meeting people who lived through it. Our hearts break. We cannot possibly comprehend. How can we say, "We're sorry"? It is not enough.

But of what are we most afraid? I personally think what torments us most about that piece of charred history is our not really knowing how we'd have reacted had we been non-Jewish Germans living in Deutschland at that time. Oh, many of us loudly insist we'd have taken a stand, protested, put a stop to the slaughter of millions. In fact many did try, some were successful, but many ended paying the ultimate price for their heroism.

We are left wondering if we really would have had the courage to stand up to the black, brutal violence of Nazism, if we would have had the bravery to save even one life; Jewish, Gypsy, homosexual, mentally or physically handicapped, or any marked for extermination in order that the so-called Aryan race be kept pure. Would we? Would you? Would I?

I've pondered on this problem a great deal over the years. I was alive, happy and thriving back in the 1930s and 40s while millions were dying in ways so horrible most of us cannot touch our minds to the thought of it for fear it will burn into the very core of our psyches. Children like me were being ripped to pieces. Who knew? Did you? Did we? Did I?

I wonder if I'd been a parent in Germany with a family I loved and knew what was happening, and yet because a horrible war was exploding all around me, would I have had the courage to scream "Stop!!"? Would I have taken the terrible chance that my family would be piled amongst the slaughtered because of my heroics? If I lived near a crematorium and could smell the palpable, ghastly odor of burning human flesh, would I have called a meeting of my neighbors, demanding to know what that was? Would I, like so many did, have spent my life protesting, "But we just didn't know!" Would I have put my beloved family at risk to save complete strangers?

6. Actually,
We'll just make more bullets. We aren't short of the materials to do so, and it's the capitalist way...

10. I hesitate to write this, lest I give any right-wing monitors an idea...
But the Nazis also charged the next-of-kin of executed persons for the cost of the trial and execution, including the bullet. This applied to political prisoners in the regular concentration (as opposed to the extermination) camps. Such legal niceties were impractical in the vast slaughterhouse of the East.
