4 THE GERMAN CONTRIBUTION
John
Nugent
Most Americans do not realize how numerous a
segment of the population are the Americans of German extraction. Nor are we
sufficiently aware of the vast contributions both our native Germans and those
who live outside the United States have made to Western civilization. . . .
14 OTTO THE GREAT’S GREATNESS
Troy Southgate
One of the most successful of the Holy Roman
Empire’s rulers, Otto I laid the foundations for a renaissance of his own. He
was one of the few monarchs ever to successfully manipulate the pope, and he
turned back the invasion attempt by the then-still-pagan Hungarians. Read about
these and many other achievements of this mighty sovereign of the “empire of
the caesars.” . . .
20 SECRET EMPIRE’S ANCIENT ROOTS
Cushman Cunningham
The author says the master conspiracy that he
calls the Secret Empire has roots going back from today to prehistory. This is
our third extract from The Secret Empire.
30 FREEDOM FIGHTER JOHN RARICK
Peter B. Gemma
He served in the U.S. Army during World War II,
was captured and escaped from a German prison camp and was awarded the Bronze
Star and Purple Heart. A lengthy profile of the patriotic ex-congressman and
former presidential candidate with the American Independent Party.
42 JEFFERSON DAVIS TAKES OFFICE
President Jefferson Davis
In this “forgotten speech” rescued from the
dustbin of politically correct historiography, the greatest president the
Confederate States of America ever had preaches to the choir, and to posterity,
on the causes that impelled the Southern states to separate from their Northern
brethren and mentions that the Northern states were welcome to join the
Confederacy and thereby protect their states’ rights.
48 FIRST LIGHTED CHRISTMAS TREE
Frank Schmidt
You may have heard the legend that Hessian
mercenaries had a candlelit evergreen tree in 1776 in Trenton, New Jersey.
however, that appears to be only an “urban legend.” Rather, the first
documented use of a Christmas tree in North America dates from 1781, in Canada.
52 FDR: JOE STALIN’S BEST FRIEND
Michael Collins Piper
If Franklin D. Roosevelt was not a Communist, he
was the best “fellow traveler” any Red could have asked for. Thanks to this
monster in the White House, such fiends as Stalin and Mao—the worst mass
murderers in history—were enabled to slaughter 85 million to 100 million
people. . . .
57 GOADING THE JAPANESE
Joaquin Bochaca
FDR wanted war with Japan and nothing less. Here
is how he needled the proud Japanese into the trap of firing the first shot,
giving FDR a pretext for war with Japan and hence with Germany. . . .
67 IRONIC ORIGINS OF SANTA CLAUS
John Tiffany
On Christmas Eve 1822, New Yorker Clement Clarke
Moore unintentionally shaped our modern image of Santa Claus. He wrote down and
read to his children a series of verses. His poem was published a year later as
“An Account of a Visit from St. Nicholas.” Moore gave St. Nick eight reindeer,
naming them all, and he devised the now-familiar entrance via chimney. . . .
68 RESISTING THE ‘SMOTHEROUT’
Dr. Harry Elmer Barnes
Worse than any German war crimes, real or alleged,
were the actual crimes of the Allies. But these black pages of history have
been smothered out by the establishment. TBR’s namesake set a difficult goal of
bringing history into accord with the facts, but the great Barnes nailed it
all, from the Holocaust to the internment of Japanese Americans. . . .
77 WHEN DEMOCRACY FAILED
Gen. Leon Degrelle
Why was fascism, in its various different forms,
so popular in Europe in the 1920s and ’30s? The author, as an eyewitness to
history, gives an insider’s account of the failure of democracy, of communism
and of the promise of—and attack on—fascism. This is chapter two of Gen.
Degrelle’s book My Revolu tionary Life, translated by John Nugent and available
exclusively from The Barnes Review. . . .
86 FOUNDING FATHER OF ISRAEL?
Prof. Guido Raimond
The unknown founding father of the state of Israel
is none other than Adolf Hitler. Under a pact called the Haavara Agreement
(haavara meaning “moving one’s household”), the top Nazis collaborated with the
Zionists in a plan to resettle Jewish people from the German lands to
Palestine, where they would ultimately form the nucleus of modern Israel. So in
fact, the “Final Solution” was not a plan to exterminate the Jews in Germany,
but to resettle them peacefully in a new locale. . . .
95MEN IN BLACK
John Tiffany
According to one author, those black-robed
assassins on the Supreme Court are murdering America with every decision they
make. Have they no respect for the Constitution? When did this dangerous trend
of judicial activism begin? This biting book looks to take a chunk out of the
not-so-Supreme Court just as a new Supreme Court chief justice has been
approved and a new associate justice is slated to come before a judiciary panel
for interviews. A TBR book review. . . .
