People usually remember the bigger camps. Belsen, Auschwitz, Dachau, but there were a lots of camps. Dachau alone had 147
satelite camp, some worse than the main Camp!

Orderuf, Belsen, and Buchenwald were not the first camps.
Germany with littered with these camps. and good Germans
didn't know?

In March 1938 came th annexation of Austria. Austria has since presented itself as the victim of Nazism, but photograohs and newsreels of the period shows the Vienese crowd cheering arival of Hitler troops. Austrians went out of their way to brutalize 200,000 Austrians Jews.

They wanted to make Austria "Judenrein!" The immidiate solution was the creation of Mauthausen camp on Danube. It was near the pleasant town of Linz(not to be mistaken with Lienz in Tirol) that the not too pleasnt and civlized Austrians turned on their native Jews!
I wonder how Ausrain citizens expalined the anahilation of
200,000 men, probably their report cards said " Auf der Flucht erchossen!"

Charles, >>>lonely voice ? >>> Not really, but nearly ! yesterday evening the speaker of 'Gesellschaft fuer bedrohte Voelker' (GfbV) NGO claimed from its' base in Goettingen urgent economic action against Russia.

GfbV (roughly: association for endangered ethnicities) has proven in previous years as one of the least corruptible political organizations of Germany. Their strategy is cultural/media oriented, and they succeeded twice in grand media coups (providing secure evidence for Mercedes Benz illegal weapons delivery for the South African Apartheid regime, e.g. - they had an inside agent, who lost his job consequently, but MB needed several weeks to find the leak ...). Keeping up contacts to and inviting foreign dissidents, intellectuals is their most important surce of information. Image and impact factor of GfbV used to be much better than Greenpeace, e.g. (and that is difficult to reach), but they are well aware that they have to concentrate their forces, limit their activities.

Concerning Heidemarie Wieczorek-Zeul, it should be well understood that she is marginal inside her government (miniscule ministry), her party (dogmatic left, doesn't speak out anymore since Schroeder took lead there), and politics. Even the trade unions, once her strongest piece, as she was acting as unionist proxy in party congresses and party proxy in union's congresses, have turned her down now, it seems.

There is regular media coverage on 'the Chechnya crisis', but there is no indication allowed in that this might be in any way our responsibility, or would have any link to us. 'Red Heidi' was mentioned less than five seconds, and this was a station that used to be friendly!

re: e-books and books will be responded to on the other thread some time next week. Thanks for the link!

Regards MNI.

Here is another good response to Russian activties in Chehnya
"Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban told Canada's The Globe and Mail
newspaper last month that NATO, which Hungary joined in March, needs nuclear
weapons "because of uncertainties about the future of Russia."
