“Germany is being enveloped by a tremendous wave of dirt. All the beneficiaries of the Versailles dictate, who had to reluctantly admit the collapse of their violent policy against Germany, are hopeful again. In response to the determined display of the German people’s will for freedom, they initiate a propaganda atrocity that is only slightly different to the lies reported during the war. Again they want to convince the world that the German people cannot govern themselves, that in the interests of humanity and of world peace an armed gendarme must always stand beyond our borders to keep us in line with constant threats and brute force. It is not just their right, but the duty of the German people if they take all promising steps against such criminal activity … It cannot be denied that German Jews with well-known names are also playing a leading role in the horror-baiting abroad. Nobody should be more indignant than the national circles among German Jews about the behaviour of these people, who owe their education and their wealth, all of their abilities, which enabled them to win the attention of the world, to Germany and who are now denouncing Germany. ”(Das Berliner Tagesblatt. 1.4.1933.)

“ If everyone had learned to only believe what they really experienced and only to report what they saw with their own eyes, heard with their own ears – In these difficult weeks we would be poorer of many bitter experiences. But the inner excitement that the new and unexpected always creates, is a virus that infects, expands, multiplies, sets new emotions free and creates new affects. The fear of uncertainty arises automatically in revolutionary times and, since it is historically oriented, finds its nourishment wherever it needs it. Fear is suggestive. Fear is believing. Even the most insane rumors thrive on this breeding ground … Uncertainty, insecurity, lack of leadership and panic are the psychological reasons in turbulent times that the most unbelievable is often believed. This is how it was at the beginning of the World War, and this is how it was in the course of the national revolution in 1933. It is only now that one notices how close in time the war is. Did we not hear, record, believe, and pass on similar horror stories back then? Like children who want to teach themselves how to shudder. ”(Dr. Kurt Singer, Artistic Director of the Städtische Opera, Berlin.)

A crystal-clear analysis that still applies in 2021.

“I don’t need to tell you that I am an absolute opponent of this atrocity baiting of Germany. I see nothing else in this campaign than a new edition of the war campaign against Germany and its allies of yore. Even the methods and details are exactly the same as when people spoke of chopped off children’s hands and gouged eyes, and even of carcass disposal, when it was claimed that human carcasses were used to obtain fat substitutes. Today, these stories are exactly copied, stating that mutilated Jewish corpses lie in droves in front of the cemeteries, that, so to speak, no Jew could be seen on the street without being attacked.
