Something that always fascinated me (for lack of a better word) about Hitler was the double standards he applied. As the leader of his country, he always portrayed himself as someone with principles. However, he broke those principles—time and time again. Hitler hated smoking and had been a smoker himself but had stopped at a

Like his leader and idol, Adolf Hitler was a failed artist and Joseph Göbbels a failed author. Both men sought scapegoats for their shortcomings. Below is a testimony from Dr Johnston, who I believe was a fellow-schoolmate of Göbbels. “I lived in Rheydt in Rheinland and attended secondary school here. Rheydt is the birthplace of

I know that in the current political environment, there is a popular belief among some that the name Israel did not exist until 1948. Ironically, some of these same people will be celebrating the birth of a Jewish man, born in Bethlehem, a city in Israel, more than 2000 years ago. I can appreciate that
