Kristallnacht

Posted on 06/04/2020 8:54:23 PM PDT by tophat9000

Kristallnacht (German pronunciation: [kʁɪsˈtalnaχt] (About this soundlisten)) or the Night of Broken Glass, also called the November Pogrom(s),[1][2] was a pogrom against Jews carried out by SA paramilitary forces and civilians throughout Nazi Germany on 9–10 November 1938. The German authorities looked on without intervening.[3] The name Kristallnacht ("Crystal Night") comes from the shards of broken glass that littered the streets after the windows of Jewish-owned stores, buildings and synagogues were smashed. The pretext for the attacks was the assassination of the German diplomat Ernst vom Rath[4] by Herschel Grynszpan, a 17-year-old German-born Polish Jew living in Paris.

Be ready and on the lookout for false flag operations carried out by the left. It’s in the playbook and the time is ripe. Remember, the purpose of any said operation will be to blame us and Trump, but don’t be surprised if they sacrifice 100s if not 1000s of their own sheeple to pull it off. for example, secretly plant explosives on a bridge, then lure 1000s of their BLM protestors on to the bridge, detonate it and tell the world Trump did it. The leaders of antifa are dead set on killing us, don’t put anything past them.

Sounds crazy, even to me, but that’s what revolutionaries are capable of.

If you’re saying that all white people are now hated as much as the Jews that’s sort of a backhanded compliment.

This man’s 2017 YouTube warns people that Libs & Antfa are just using BLM. Pretty accurate as its playing out this past week.

Not crazy at all, you are absolutely right. I have watched for more than 25 years and monitored all the ways the Left, in union with every other America-hating interest, has done everything possible and with the most profoundly dishonest cynicism , to bring about a civil war in this country. Since Covid-19 and the supposed waning away of that, and the first sign of the sun coming out and then the perfectly time killing of George Floyd in Mpls, where the rioting looting and arson was kickstarted by an antifa-type ,probably St. Paul cop named Jacob Pederson. The same looting ,violence,and mayhem spread in the blink of an eye, OBVIOUSLY already pre-planned and with the shock troops in place all across the country to carry it out. I see with no problem with saying that the opening salvos of the Civil War have begun. And yes, this is the final phase of a 4 year project to get Trump out of office, his completely reasonable agenda somehow being anathema to them. He must be defended at all costs. I’ve been around awhile and through the 60s, 9-11 and all this, and I’ve never seen or could imagine an assault on this country as total,as multifarious,as nefarious, as well-constructed and as relentless as this. We will be lucky to avert a total meltdown and collapse. Too many surrogates in too many parts of the world also add to chorus combining to bring us down, and our craven treacherous Media loves reporting on all of it.

Yes, I’ve lived a long time too, and like you, I see this as an endgame for the left. They’re putting all their marbles in the ring. We must be willing to fight like our lives depend on it, because this time they really do. It’s amazing how they have tricked our young people and the stupid among us, and are using them as pawns.

Yeah.
The analogy is obvious to anyone, though the media is not allowed to admit it.

One difference now - the Jews weren’t armed.

Kristallnacht is often be called the night The Holocaust began. The Holocaust began the moment Adolph Hitler opened his mouth and the German people shut theirs.

It’s more like the TET offensive. A bunch of undercover commies are all activated at the same time according to a grand game plan. In the TET game they rounded up and killed anti-communist voices in the short period of time they had control before being crushed. In this case it is capitalist objects under attack. They could very well step it up to equal the TET offensive eventually.

Another difference - German Jews were in the minority.

NPR said this morning there is direct evidence of white supremacy group involvement in the violence. None for Leftists groups.
