[MarvinStinson]

German Opera composer Richard Wagner, who started the German Eliminate the Jews movement with his extensive pamphlets and books starting with his anti-Semitic The Jews in Music, was described by Hitler and Himmler as the “fountainhead” of their movement.

Wagner’s extensive writings are filled with occult references used to support his Kill the Jews push.

Wagner also described blacks and Asians as “sub-human.”

[Wilhelm Tell]

I think I read somewhere that Hitler described Wagner’s operas as his (Hitler’s) religion.

Thanks MarvinStinson. This is under the Oh So Mysteriouso heading in GGG, and it's creepy for anyone who hadn't noticed. The SS had its own rites, such as one purportedly called "The Ceremony of the Stifling Air". Oh, and there used to be an unwritten rule in Israeli broadcasting -- no Wagner, ever. Sidebars -- when Henry Kissinger was in charge of one of the US-occupied postwar German towns, he introduced or reintroduced music by Jewish composers (including George Gershwin) to the local airwaves; and somewhere around here I've got a CD of wartime German big-band covers of big-band music written in the US.
