History Repeating Itself ? ? ?

I talked to a lady yesterday who was from Germany; she has lived in America for a long time now. She was in Germany during the Second World War. It was amazing to actually hear from someone who was there, though she was young.
She remembers when she was 4 seeing Hitler coming down her street (I suppose in his car) and everyone going out and cheering and saying heil Hitler and throwing flowers. As a 4 year old she was naturally caught up in the excitement and called to her mother in the kitchen "he's coming Mama! he's coming!" But her mother knew better than the toddler, and to the surprise of her daughter, stayed right where she was stirring something in the kitchen. Her mother had been through the First World War.

She remembers her family hiding in the cellar many a night, from the Nazi's.

She talked of the brainwashing of the youth.

The young men going off to fight, having no choice.

She also told us about a minister that was taken away to a concentration camp and came back just skin and bones.

Another story was, when her family and her were taken away by train, they could take nothing with them. And her mother in her wisdom used some rope to tie the family together (11 kids), the train they were on got bombed while they were in it, and if they had not been tied together they may not have been able to find each other.

She lost two brothers and a sister to the war, I don't know how.

Now this Lady is not a Jew, it was not only the Jews that the Nazi rein hurt but their own people;anyone who disagrees with the new world order they wanted to set up.

We asked about the current politics here in America, what she thought. She mentioned being a christian not being just going to church. She talked of the blindness of people to truth. She talked of abortion being just the start, next comes the old people, then.........



There's a book that was recently shown to me, which I would suggest EVERYONE read. Though it may be hard to find, the library system had one copy but may have gotten rid of it. The title is: The Children's Story...but not just for children By James Clavell. Don't worry if you're not a reader, it can be read in less than 20min. it's not a 200-400 pg. book or anything:) .

A local tea party group had a picture of Miss Liberty (I think it was her) sleeping all donned out in red, white and blue and it said Wake Up America.
Well the other day I watched a movie from the war years of the 40's, a british film. It was set shortly before the war and went into the war as the show progressed. There was a Lady who was trying to warn people of what was going on. Now this is the part that hit me, on her yacht she had a sign that said... Wake Up Britain.

I see so much stuff today that reminds me of the WWII era, but I will keep the rest for my next post.

Signing Off For Now,
