The New World War
On this date, July 18th, in 1926, part 1 of Adolf Hitler’s Mein Kamf, entitled A Reckoning, was published. As we approach a new world war, it is good to recall the past…
.
When studying past wars in history, the machinations in words and deeds of the warring parties leading up to the initial shots of conflict can be quite telling. While the opening salvos in a given war may have taken the involved parties by surprise, a careful study of actions prior generally reveals many telltale signs that should have foretold the events about to take place. Heated rhetoric by history’s long line of psychopathic madmen often contained hints at what they had planned long before their awful deeds were actually implemented.

On September 1st, 1939, Hitler’s army poured across the Polish frontier from the south, north, and west in what is considered the official start to World War II. Some fourteen years earlier, a book written by Adolf Hitler, Mein Kamf (“My Struggle”), was released with little fanfare. While he was nothing more than a well-known agitator (and ex-con) at that point, the future dictator put forth a blueprint for the coming horrors of the Third Reich within the convoluted writings of that now infamous book.

On the need for expanded living space for the German people (Lebensraum) in Eastern Europe then currently occupied by other peoples, Hitler wrote:
Nature has not reserved this soil for the future possession of any particular nation or race; on the contrary, this soil exists for the people with the force to take it.
He continued, on the consequences to those who might refuse to yield,
The law of self-preservation goes into effect; and what is refused to amicable methods, it is up to the fist to take.
That fist would ultimately smash an entire continent and then some.

Back in October, the new president of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, caused a minor furor by declaring in a speech that
Israel must be wiped off the map.
In the same speech, he continued
Is it possible for us to witness a world without America and Zionism?…You had best know that this slogan and this goal are attainable, and surely can be achieved.
On April 13th, The Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) reported on a speech given by the Iranian president to students, academics, and university officials discussing Iran’s announcement of its successful enrichment of uranium:
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said here Wednesday evening the situation has completely changed as far as Iran is concerned and it can now talk to the world from the vantage point of a nuclear state… Today, the enemy camp faces a crisis. But we have no crisis in this country because Iranians stand up to challenges with courage and unity… The Iranian nation’s right to nuclear energy is non-negotiable; No one can ever force us to back down an inch from the path that we are currently treading.
The next day (3 days after enriching uranium), Ahmadinejad addressed a conference on Palestine and spoke of Israel, declaring,
The Zionist regime is a decaying and crumbling tree that will fall with a storm…Palestine is the meeting point of right and wrong. Freedom for Palestine is the present aspiration of humanity. We must believe that good will prevail and evil will disappear. We must believe that Palestine will be free soon. A regime based on injustice and threat cannot survive. Today all conditions for the freedom of Palestine are on hand and available. Vigilance, unity and resistance are the keys to victory.
Oh, by the way- did you know that Iran is seeking nuclear technology strictly for “peaceful purposes?”
In the classic Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, author William L. Shirer wrote,
Not every German who bought a copy of Mein Kamf necessarily read it. I have heard many a Nazi stalwart complain that it was hard going and not a few admit- in private- that they were never able to get through to the end of its 782 turgid pages. But it might be argued that had more non-Nazi Germans read it before 1933 and had the foreign statesmen of the world perused it carefully while there still was time, both Germany and the world might have been saved from catastrophe.
Adolf Hitler wrote in Mein Kamf,
We all sense that in the distant future humanity must be faced by problems which only a highest race, become master people and supported by the means and possibilities of an entire globe, will be equipped to overcome.
Thus, he predicted a master race ruling the entire world.
On December 18th, after lamenting the “oppression” by the “suppressive powers” under “the pretext of freedom,” the IRNA reported that Iranian president Ahmadinejad
then expressed his confidence that all kinds of oppression would come to an end once rule of Islam prevails in the whole world.
Like his predecessor from the not-to-distant past, it sure sounds like Ahmadinejad predicts a “master” religion will rule the entire world. Says Ahmadinejad,
Islam is the only way to salvation open to humanity… as the most recent and most complete religion of the world, only Islam has all the answers to every human question.
Nobody paid much heed to Hitler’s early ranting and we all know what followed. What do you suppose will happen if history repeats itself once more and the world ignores the words of yet another madman at the helm of a nation- one with nuclear bombs?
