1. Germany in World War 2: Horrific Implications
"Life and Death in the Third Reich" by Peter Fritsche, USA, 2008
Book is well-written, well-researched.
Findings are horrifying even for veteran readers of this research genre.
Some of the reportage we found of note included:
England was associated with the Jews (p.2).
The Volksgemeinschaft or the People's Community is a concept that from the accession of the Nazis in 1933
onwards represented in the German conscious a revolution, a reconciliation of all sections of the nation in a common cause,
a redemptive experience. This applied even to those Germans who had not been nor did become Nazi supporters.
#The year 1933 [when Hitler came to power]... represented the recovery of national life through the virtues of discipline, unity, and authority ## (p.268).
Euthanasia or the elimination of what were considered worthless negative human beings was taken seriously.
400,000 Germans were sterilized mostly in the period 1939-1939.
## In a 1929 speech, Himself had toyed with the possibility of culling four out of five German children.## (p.114).
[Hitler himself was born with only one testicle and had congenital imbeciles in his family.]
The persecution and killing of the Jews was enjoyed and included sadistic tormenting.
The Nazis wanted the German public to know about it in order to harden their resolve to keep on fighting.
#The crimes against the Jews provided the German with the will to victory in what British propagandists aptly described...as "Strength through Fear". # (p.266).
The Jews were blamed for being victims and for being vulnerable.
Because they had been persecuted and therefore could not be trusted and because the outside world was liable to blame Germany over what happened
to them they became a liability even in the eyes of Germans who may otherwise felt sympathetic towards them.
They were in the way.
It was also generally assumed that Jews controlled Britain and the USA who had entered the War because of the Jews.
The Germans were all Conspiracy Freaks.
The Nazis were eventually blamed for not being Nazi enough.
# As one American intelligence officer explained, "Hitler is blamed for losing the war, not for starting it."# (p.272).
# Soldiers letters, which were not dictated by higher authorities, showed near unanimous support for the Fuhrer"# (p.290).

3. ANCIENT EGYPT: A MAGNIFICENT CIVILIZATION
http://us1.harunyahya.com/Detail/T/EDCRFV/productId/8171/ANCIENT_EGYPT:_A_MAGNIFICENT_CIVILIZATION_-_I
by Harun Yahya
Extracts:
The civilization of Ancient Egypt, which registered such great successes in medicine, especially anatomy, urban planning, architecture, fine arts and textiles, is today studied by scientists with great awe and amazement.
It has been revealed, using X-ray analysis of mummies, that brain surgery was performed in Ancient Egypt. What is more, these operations were carried out using highly professional techniques. When mummy skulls that underwent surgery are examined it can be seen that the sites of the surgery have been cut very neatly. Skull bones that have fused back together have been found, proving that these people survived after such operations.
- The priests involved in medicine in Egypt treated all kinds of disease in their temples. Just as today, Egyptian doctors specialized in various fields of medicine. Every doctor had his own branch. Expert physicians in provided services, from eye doctors to dentists.
- Doctors in Egypt were supervised by the state. If the patient failed to recover or died, the state would investigate the reasons and determine whether or not the method of treatment employed by the doctor conformed to the rules. If any oversight had taken place during treatment this was identified and doctors punished within the framework of the law.
- Every temple possessed a well-equipped laboratory in which medicines were prepared and stored.
- The first steps in pharmacology and examples of the use of bandages and compresses go back to Ancient Egyptian times. The Smith Papyrus described how adhesive strips made out of linen were used to heal wounds. Linen was also an ideal material for making bandages.
- The techniques employed were numerous and varied. Breaks and fractures were set together, splints employed and wounds closed up with stitches. Breaks treated with great success can be found in most mummies.
An Advanced Level of Mathematics
Numbers were used in Ancient Egypt from very early times. Papyruses from 2000 BC that describe mathematical problems have been found. These documents are known as the Kahun, Berlin and Rhind papyruses. These documents state, with examples, the bases on which measurements are made. The Egyptians made use of Pythagorus's Theorem, and knew that a triangle whose sides measure 3-4-5 is a right-angle triangle, in their construction measurements.
