This is just too incredible. It is shocking. Germany has been taken over by corrupt idiots like Herr Schroeder and former 'red revolutionaries' like Joschka Fischer.

France is Germany and Germany is France.

France, Germany, Belgium, and Austria--I see the old gang is getting back together.

[Citizen of the Savage Nation]

This man, Fischer, should never have been given a visa to step on US soil for one minute. I don't know what I'm more angry about, Germany and France, or our administration's weak handling of them.

When Germany reunified they took a serpent into their bosom.

The article mentions Ilich Ramírez Sánchez — "Carlos" or "the Jackal". There may be an interesting link between Carlos the Jackal and the precursors of today's Palestinian terrorists. To quote:

While studying at Lumumba, Ilich formed an alliance with several Palestinian students and listened attentively as they related stories of their homeland's struggle against its archenemy Israel. They spoke in glowing terms of a rebel leader who had organized a terrorist campaign to liberate Palestine. The man's name was Wadi Haddad. In partnership with George Habash, a fellow student at the American University in Beirut, Haddad had been instrumental in founding the Arab Nationalist Movement in the early 1950's. The members of the movement dedicated themselves to a campaign to take Palestine back from the Israelis. Source

Connecting the dots here could be very interesting (Fischer, France, Germany, nazis, communists, terrorists, etc.)

Pacepa is an interesting character. His "Red Horizons", published in 1987 provided interesting snippets on the Soviet involvement in drug trafficking. Although he had been interrogated for years no one in the CIA thought to follow up on what he knew, which was plenty, because at the time Agency orders were to stay as clear of drugs and drug trafficking as possible (for fear agents might become contaminated by easy money, more than anything else).

This piece really is explosive. So explosive, in fact, that is must be completely ignored by the mainstream media and the establishment.

"Joschka Fischer, who testified as a character witness at Klein's trial in 2001........had been kept in the apartment he shared with Hans Joachim Klein and Daniel Cohn-Bendit"

The beginning of 'The Pink Axis'??? :o

[baseballmom]

Bump. Great find

[pittsburgh gop guy]

An excellent article and a MUST READ for anyone concerned about why much of Europe hates the USA.

All those f'n protestors are nothing but anti-American stooges. They would rather stand with Saddam and Iraq than with the USA and George Bush.

YOU ARE EITHER WITH US, OR AGAINST US!

[TwilightDog]

Aren't the Germans poised to get rid of Schroeder and his gvt of ninnies?

The U.S. can deal with China, the Islamic world, and countries like Venezuela, but a Russia-Germany-France axis
further added to the present nexus of bad players is too much. There is such a thing as problems so daunting that they are insoluble.

[DoctorMichael]

"Fischer's evidently ingrained anti-Americanism is now spreading throughout the German government, and beyond. This is a monumental display of ingratitude to the 405,399 American soldiers who gave their lives to defeat Berlin's old Axis, as well as to the millions of American taxpayers who spent trillions of dollars to rebuild Germany's war-torn economy and to protect West Germany from falling into Communist clutches."

Story also now available on FrontPageMag. Bump.

[WOSG]

Is this being reported in Germany??? or is the media running interference for these leftists the way our US media ran cover for Clinton???

This truly is shocking.

[LaBelleDameSansMerci]

...This is just too incredible. It is shocking....

Yes it is. A man with as much blood on his hands as General Ion Mihai Pacepa undoubtedly has is now considered a reputable and reliable source for a great organ of conservative thought like National Review. Shocking indeed. But conservatives seem to be hangin' in a very shocking hood these days.

EUROPEAN FOUNDATION INTELLIGENCE DIGEST
Issue No. 161
20th February 2003
I. The Audit of War

Welcome to the New Europe

Ten countries signed a declaration of support for the position taken by the USA and Britain in the Iraq crisis: Albania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia.

They have been branded "the new Europe" by Donald Rumsfeld, as opposed to the "old Europe" of the Franco-German axis. But how new are these governments?

Albania is governed by the party of Enver Hoxha, for forty years one of the worst Stalinist dictators in Europe; the president of Bulgaria is a former communist; the president of Croatia was the last communist president of old socialist Yugoslavia, while his prime minister was the Ideology Secretary in the Yugoslav League of Communists; the president of Estonia is the former president of the Supreme Soviet of the Estonian Soviet Socialist Republic; the prime minister of Lithuania is the former First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Lithuanian Communist Party; the government of Macedonia is in the hands of former communists; the president of Romania rose to prominence as head of the Communist Youth under the Romanian dictator, Gheorghe Gheorghiu-Dej, before becoming a member of the Central Committee of the Romanian Communist Party under Nicolae Ceausescu; the president of Slovakia was a member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Slovakia and for 20 years a senior local communist boss; while the current president of Slovenia was for years deputy to his predecessor, who had been the communist head of Slovenia since 1986. Prior to the open letter signed by the "Vilnius 10", moreover, three countries, Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic joined five current EU members in signing up to the war on Iraq [see Digest Issue No.160]: the prime minister and president of Poland were both Communists until the bitter end, while the prime minister of Hungary used to be an agent for the Hungarian equivalent of the KGB.....

Shocking.....

If you've never read Claire Sterling's "The Terror Network", I recommend it highly.
