REPUGNANT: Conservative Candace Owens Questions Holocaust, Defends Hitler And Mengele In Latest Rant
Yeshiva World ^

Posted on 07/11/2024 1:17:05 PM PDT by Red Badger

Prominent antisemitic conservative Candace Owens has ignited a storm of controversy with new remarks about World War II and the Holocaust, in which she essentially defended Adolf Hitler and infamous Auschwitz mangler Joseph Mengele.

In a YouTube episode titled, “Literally Hitler. Why Can’t We Talk About Him?”, Owens downplayed the atrocities committed by Nazi Germany while criticizing the Allies’ actions post-war. She questioned the taboo surrounding discussions about Hitler, saying, “We have been indoctrinated and we actually know nothing about the person other than the fact that we must fear him.”

Owens suggested that education about Nazi Germany is a form of indoctrination, comparing it to “Soviet tactics of introducing really heavy concepts to kids while their brains are developing because you want to traumatize them.” She claimed this was done to ensure compliance with a narrative portraying Hitler as “the greatest evil that’s ever happened on earth, even though factually and statistically it is not. Why is he the most evil?”

Owens made further controversial assertions regarding the Allies’ actions after World War II, alleging they “ethnically cleansed 12 million Germans… in the exact same [concentration] camps that we then transferred the Germans into so that we could mass kill them.” She described the Holocaust as “an ethnic cleansing [that] almost took place,” while asserting that the Allies “actually did [an ethnic cleansing].”

Owens also cast doubt on the well-documented medical experiments conducted by Nazi doctor Josef Mengele, describing them as sounding like “bizarre propaganda.” She said, “The idea that they just cut a human up and then sewed them back together. Why would you do that? Even if you’re the most evil person in the world, that’s a tremendous waste of time and supplies.”

Owens drew comparisons between Nazi scientists and US institutions, mentioning the CIA and Planned Parenthood. She said, “We took all of those top Nazi scientists and we brought them to America. I wonder why we did that. Maybe for a little more experimentation. Have you ever heard of the CIA? If you think experimentation is unique to the Nazis, you need to wake up. You heard of Planned Parenthood? They literally tell you to abort your children if they have special needs.”

The coward who wrote these lies wouldn't even put his name on the hit piece.

All she was saying was that there were other atrocities, some committed by our own country, that were as bad or worse than what Hitler did.

She never even mentioned Mengele by name and didn't say one good thing about Hitler.

Sheesh. The idea that the Holocaust is the ONE AND ONLY atrocity that we need to care about and remember, or that Hitler is the ONE AND ONLY war criminal that we need to loathe is lunacy.

It only hurts the right, as was the plan by the Left all along. How many here know that it was members of the Frankfurt School who developed the education programs in Germany to "de-nazify" the population?

The Germans today have become total wimps. Only the East Germans who suffered under the Soviets seem to have any balls, and their parties are regularly castigated and there are constant attempts to make them illegal.

Because of "Never Forget", the Republicans will always be seen as fascists and Nazis who can never be allowed to gain complete control of the government.

Do we really want to play along with this insanity?

We hanged Nazis for doing this sort of crap not too many years ago.

Vera Sharav, who managed to escape a Nazi concentration camp as a young girl, made the comment (regarding the jab mandates) that if the FDA and CDC officials are not tried like the Nazi doctors at Nuremberg, then we are not civilized.

“other atrocities, some committed by our own country, that were as bad or worse than what Hitler did.”

Yeah no thanks. We don’t need an analysis of nazis to help the perception of republicans.

F the nazis and Hitler. Period.

I didn’t read the article or listen to Candace. But from just the snippet I see her point. American educators go all in on how evil Hitler was, and rarely discuss how bad Stalin was during that same time period and event (WWII). I doubt they even talk about Mao at all.

Stalin was WAY worse than Hitler in terms of deaths. Perhaps not as obviously evil and gruesome as the NAZI’s were, but more effective. Hmm - I guess the reason they aren’t as obvious is we never went into the Gulags or Ukraine to photograph the conditions or the masses of starving people. Obviously both men (and their systems) were evil.

Stalin (The Allies) rounded up Germans and sent entire families to Siberia as slave labor. Even after the war Germans that had been captured by the US and sent to camps in America were sometimes made to work in European countries to pay off Germany’s “reparations”. Some even went from their relatively good camps in America and had to go to Stalin’s “work camps” in Siberia.

I don't remember anything about bringing medical scientists.

Technically yes, information gathered about the ghastly Japanese medical experiments at facilities such as Unit 731 was much appreciated.

That having been said, Candace has taken a sudden, strange turn.

Not long ago she was sharply critical of American use of the A-bomb against Japan as if she was utterly clueless about what the wartime Japanese were really like.

Perhaps she unknowingly is a product of the indoctrination she criticizes.

A Jewish perspective on Divine orchestration is that God involves the worst characters into His best plans, the very plans the dark side is determined to sabotage.

So you've got these Nazis... horrible people...

On July 1, 1960 the Marshall Space Flight Center, or the MSFC, was created out of the old Redstone Arsenal. The Center was then also placed under the jurisdiction of the recently created NASA, and Wernher von Braun was appointed as the Center's first NASA Director.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_Space_Flight_Center

During Apollo, he worked closely with former Peenemünde teammate, Kurt H. Debus, the first director of the Kennedy Space Center. His dream to help mankind set foot on the Moon became a reality on 16 July 1969, when a Marshall-developed Saturn V rocket launched the crew of Apollo 11 on its historic eight-day mission. Over the course of the program, Saturn V rockets enabled six teams of astronauts to reach the surface of the Moon.[122]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wernher_von_Braun

Thanks to the dream and leadership of Wernher von Braun, the Saturn V rocket -- 363 "HaMashiach" ft. high -- ferried the Apollo 11 mission to the Moon (symbolic of the Kingdom of David) to make the big announcement to all people on the Earth:

That's one small step for man;
One giant leap for mankind.

Isn't that.. something.

Visiting Marshall

NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center is situated on the U.S. Army’s Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama. Visitors are welcomed at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center, Marshall’s official Visitor Center. U.S. Space & Rocket Center visitors can learn more about Marshall’s legacy and ongoing work.

” “the greatest evil that’s ever happened on earth, even though factually and statistically it is not. Why is he the most evil?” “

That falls to Communism overall, having killed (and continuing to kill) many millions more than Nazism alone did. Hitler was evil, deluded, and on an approximate f-ton of drugs prescribed by Teodor Morel, but in terms of numbers alone, he doesn’t touch Stalin, Mao, or Pol Pot. However, he was motivated solely by hatred, making his actions purely evil. Tertiary syphillis only came in at the end, so people can’t blame that.

When it comes to Mengele, I did many reports on him in middle and high school, just because I’m a WWII history nut (I suppose my status as a frequent medical patient made me curious), and he did some awful stuff. He did a lot of experimenting on twins in an effort to increase the, “Aryan” population, and attempted to change eye and skin color with dyes. There was experimentation with diseases and allowing them to run their course, on top of performing surgeries without aneathesia, trying to find ways to make Germans, “stronger.” I don’t doubt that he did far, far worse than what I found as a teen. They saw the imprisoned as inhuman, and had no problem experimenting on them.

The Germans kept (amd still keep) detailed records, so there was a lot of proof to back this up.

We did hold people in prison camps, but we weren’t murdering them en masse as far as I know, so that is wildly misleading.

Planned Parenthood was founded by a eugenecist, so there’s that. However, calling it, “experimentation” is a bit of an exaggeration.

"We took all of those top Nazi scientists and we brought them to America. I wonder why we did that. Maybe for a little more experimentation."

She obviously doesn't know that the CIA hired many Nazi war criminals to spy on our enemies, but they lost control of them. The Nazis they hired refused to give the names of the SS Officers, SD and German Police members they hired, which they had been told they could not do, but did anyway. Nor did the CIA know who those people hired down the line.

Because the CIA had no idea what those spy groups were up to, they didn't know, or maybe they did, that the war criminals getting federal funding set up their own rescue mission to get other war criminals out of Germany...one being Joseph Mengele. And the CIA hired Klaus Barbie, "The Butcher of Lyon," and helped him and his family escape to South America. When French officials had a warrant out for Barbie, the CIA lied to them, and claimed they had no idea where he was...but they did. And some of those unknown war criminals who were supposedly working for the CIA, ended up in Egypt, Syria and Lebanon, trafficking weapons to those countries to use against Israel.

"Correct. It was a race between the US and USSR"

I think the Brits and perhaps France were in on that race as well. I did a search to see if Israel was looking to grab some of the German scientists, but apparently Mossad ran Operation Damocles in 1962, to target for elimination, those German scientists that had worked on Germany's rocket program.

Well, Candace is not a deep thinker; but she is awkwardly underscoring the infamy of unqualified abortion on demand—and where it fits in history.

The idea that the Holocaust is the ONE AND ONLY atrocity that we need to care about and remember, or that Hitler is the ONE AND ONLY war criminal that we need to loathe is lunacy.

This is an excellent point, and it is also why all the focus on the "holocaust" irks me. I see it used all the time to beat Americans into submission (one of those "third rail" subjects) despite the fact that Americans fought to stop the Nazis and liberate the Jews and any others. Rather than crying about anti-semitism all the time, Jews should be thanking Americans for their part in saving them. Then, in further irony, their political pets on the Left, once the primary finger-pointers of "anti-semitism", have now turned against them and actually call for their destruction.
