The Nazis Falsely Accused the Jews of Plotting to Exterminate Germans

The Nazis committed genocide against the Jewish people. The Nazis' ceaseless persecution of the Jews gradually escalated culminating in a campaign of mass extermination against the Jews killing about six million Jews in Nazi occupied Europe during World War II.

And the Nazis did not just kill them but subjected the Jews to countless horrors, robbed them, insulted them and humiliated them. The Nazis even falsely accused the Jews of plotting to exterminate the (false so-called) "Aryan master race." Clearly the Nazis were projecting their own murderous hatred onto the victims.

The following book reveals this frightful aspect of Nazi ideology: The Jewish Enemy: Nazi Propaganda during World War II and the Holocaust by Jeffrey Herf.

Here is part of its preview:

The sheer magnitude of the Holocaust has commanded our attention for the past sixty years. The extent of atrocities, however, has overshadowed the calculus Nazis used to justify their deeds.

According to German wartime media, it was German citizens who were targeted for extinction by a vast international conspiracy. Leading the assault was an insidious, belligerent Jewish clique, so crafty and powerful that it managed to manipulate the actions of Roosevelt, Churchill, and Stalin. Hitler portrayed the Holocaust as a defensive act, a necessary move to destroy the Jews before they destroyed Germany.

The cruel and terrible crimes of the Nazis must never be forgotten.

The really sad part of this is that unfortunately, the false accusations of an international Jewish conspiracy have made it into the present amongst modern paranoid conspiratorialists. Some of our former brethren have either bought into the lies, or are parroting them on various blogs for shock value.

And of course, there is no such thing as "selective" racism. The behavior pattern of invalidating or marginalizing another human purely on the basis of race is a pathology. Sooner or later, racists get around to everybody. White racists, as an example, might turn on the Irish, or Slavs if there are no Blacks, Hispanics, or Jews to pick on. When the redneck mob mentality really sets in, Seamus or Latka are no safer than poor DeShon, Felipe or Avram.

I've said this many times before, but to me the best thing that could happen to a racist would be if his son or daughter rebelled and married amongst the race that he cursed at the dinner table as they grew up.

Byker Bob, My apologies for not responding sooner.

It is indeed most unfortunate that some of those who have been associated with the COGs have indeed come to embrace bizarre and paranoid views of holocaust denial.

And I could not agree more that racism is not fixed. You are so right that racists inevitably change who they hate and hate others as well. Racism can be dreadfully diverse and capricious.

Fall of Berlin Wall NOT Proof HWA was Right

It is often asserted that the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 proved that HWA was right and he really did see the future.

This of course is nonsense. Herbert W. Armstrong said that Christ would return within twenty years in his book Mystery of the Ages. (PCG has since deleted those words so someone in there knows HWA spoke nonsense.) How convenient for them to forget this.

Also Herbert W. Armstrong never said the Soviet Union would collapse. He thought it would survive intact until a few years after Christ's return. It shows how biased some many in the COGs are that they never seem to notice this. This inconvenient truth is just tossed into the memory hole.

It is true that HWA said that some Eastern European states would break away from Moscow's orbit and join the European Empire he said would arise at any moment. But he never talked of the Soviet Union collapsing. He did not teach that. Also he portrayed the rise of the European Empire to be far quicker then what has actually happened. In Mystery of the Ages Christ was supposed to return by 2005 at the most.

So assertions that the fall of the Berlin Wall somehow prove that HWA was right is just complete nonsense spread by people who, for whatever reason, are still in denial that HWA was a false prophet who merely talked out of his own "human reasoning".

Truth about Roderick C. Meredith

What sort of man is he? A man who could say things like this.

"Mr. Armstrong has reminded us again that we are to disfellowship any members who attend GTA's [Garner Ted Armstrong's] campaigns, church services or other meetings. Some of our weaker members apparently do not realize that this man is in direct rebellion against God and His government! We must not allow them, or ourselves, to rationalize about this matter, to try to "help the underdog," or in any other way lend support to one whose gross immorality, whose long standing "play acting" and hypocrisy, and whose direct insubordination to the Government of God has long been and is now a source of confusion and DIVISION among God's people. So, as per Mr. Armstrong's instruction, I charge and exhort every one of you faithful ministers of the living Christ to explain this in no uncertain terms to your members, to warn them about this cause of division and then to disfellowship any who consort with GTA or any of his fellows." (Roderick C. Meredith, Pastor's Report, May 21, 1979, pp. 1-2.)

See here for this statement's context.

David Robinson on Roderick C. Meredith

WCG minister David Robinson had this to say about Roderick C. Meredith in a letter he wrote to him on September 19, 1979.

"During the ten years I have been an employee of the Worldwide Church, you have been poorly spoken of by most of the ministers and employees I have known. I vividly remember the absolute unbounded glee that was openly expressed by a good number of respected men in the church when you were first "shanghaied." [In 1972.] I could begin by naming names, which I am sure would shock you. I was one of the few who stood, where possible, for you. Your tenure as superintendent of ministers, as I believe the office was then called, was looked on as nightmarish. While you held office during the years of growth, most of those whom I know gave you very little credit for that growth. Almost everyone whom I know, whether they be former friends of yours, or continuing foes, recalls insensitive and terrible things you have done. Without exception, at least among my acquaintances, they all credit you with an unbridled lust for power and list you as one who is willing to pay the price of gaining that power, no matter what. I have, through many of the last few years, believed you had principles you would not violate. Many a man of experience in the church assured me of my error. Events have proven me wrong and them right. Mr. Armstrong has himself been widely quoted as saying of you that you were so righteous that you were so "righteous you were unrighteous." " (David Robinson, Herbert Armstrong's Tangled Web, Chapter 16, p. 207.)

Of course it is impossible for me to personally verify these assertions but people deserve to know what this knowledgeable man had to say about him.
