THE SPEAR OF CHRIST........or (the spear of destiny)

Interesting how illuminating it is to see a worthwhile definition of 'NAZI' for the first time.

I won't go into detail about the strange history of the term (which is not an acronym, but a diminuitive) but will simply say that it is a specific, German form of Fascism (originally Italian in origin).

Here's what Wikipedia has to say about Fascism. While you read it, ask yourself what country - at this moment - it most reminds you of;

Fascism is a political ideology that is associated with one or more of the following characteristics: 1) a very high degree of nationalism, 2) centralized control of private enterprise (corporatism), and, after it attains political control of a country, involves 3) a powerful executive-centered (or even dictatorial) state that views the nation as superior to the individuals or groups composing it (authoritarianism.) Fascism also typically calls for the regeneration of the nation, uses populist appeals to unity, and extols militarism as a major virtue. It also is associated with anti-liberalism, anti-communism and anti-anarchism.

A recent definition is that by former Columbia University Professor Robert O. Paxton: "[incorporating] 1. a sense of overwhelming crisis beyond reach of traditional solutions; 2. belief one’s group is the victim, justifying any action without legal or moral limits; 3. need for authority by a natural leader above the law, relying on the superiority of his instincts; 4. right of the chosen people to dominate others without legal or moral restraint; 5. fear of foreign `contamination."

Anyone not familiar with Operation Paperclip might also want to do some digging, assuming they'd like to hear a possible explanation. When thinking about NAZI's in America, many people tend to take notice of Wernher von Braun within NASA, but forget about Reinhard Gehlen, and many ex-Gestapo, within CIA, and their links to the Gladio project (among others).

Also, anyone unfamiliar with the relationship between certain well-placed members of U.S. society and the German National Socialists might also want to learn more.
