GOOD GERMANY CONTRIBUTION OF AK ANTISEMICS
The three-part movie “Our Mothers, Our Fathers” shows planet War II with the eyes of 5 young Germans from Berlin. The communicative begins on the eve of the outbreak of the war with the russian Union in June 1941, and it is unclear what caused it. Wilhelm, a young officer of the Wehrmacht, dreams of a large career. Charlotte, in love with him, decides to volunteer for German medical service to service her country. The intellectual Friedhelm, Wilhelm's brother, is 1 of thousands of German recruits recently called into the army. Greta, Charlotte's friend, wants to be a large singer.
W Grecie loves Viktor, who is Jewish, and that's why he can't put on his uniform and go with thousands of his peers to the front to defend his endangered homeland. As usual, a warstorm writes a separate script for each of them. Service on the east Front turns Friedhelm into a killing machine, distorts his true, good character. But his brother Wilhelm besides can't stand the hell of war, deserting the army, and staining his honor. besides Charlotte, under the influence of war, turns into a beast, denuncing herself in the infirmary where she goes, a judaic caregiver handing her over to the SS. In turn Greta begins an affair with a young SS officer, believing that his support will aid her in her artistic career. In fact, she's a pragmatist, she does everything she can to realize her dreams. The destiny of the hebrew Viktor is much more complicated and much more dramatic. During transport to Auschwitz, he manages to escape and find shelter in 1 of the Home Army guerrilla troops. He participates in armed actions, showing courage and extraordinary courage. But he is rapidly exposed by his colleagues as “pure” A hebrew and then his real problems begin. It turns out that his Polish colleagues are the purest anti-Semites and erstwhile they learn that he is Jewish, they immediately cease to accept him. Viktor must so leave the AK-O. But this is not the end of the Polish subject in the German film. 1 of the scenes can definitely stay in the audience's consciousness longer. This is the scene where the AK branch stops the train transporting Jews to the place of destruction. Polish soldiers, having seen who drives it, leave the wagons closed, though they know it's a transport of death. 1 can get the impression that the strong anti-Semitism of the AK-ers makes them accept the Holocaust.
The word “Polish concentration camps” is commonly utilized by the media in Germany for a fresh historical policy.
"Goebbels"
The issue of the miniseries “Our Mothers, Our Fathers” (notabene given by the ZDF at the time of the highest ratings) was preceded by a gigantic promotional campaign. Many German media encouraged to watch it, advertising the movie as a large event. It was presented by Der Spiegel, the largest and most influential weekly opinion. The "Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung" (FAZ) even called on German families to best gather all generations in front of TVs and usage their last chance to perceive to their grandparents' stories. 1 could get the impression that this was 1 of the most crucial German papers about the last war. A wide advertising run made the movie watch more than 21 million viewers, or 1 in 4 German citizens. But it is besides scheduled in another European countries. It has already been broadcast by public tv in Austria, where it has besides enjoyed large interest.
But it wasn't the end of the publicity campaign. After the movie was released in German media, there was a second part of it. This time it had 2 goals: to praise again the latest native work on planet War II and to defy the attacks that appeared on the Polish side. The weekly “Die Zeit” emphasized that the movie made a large impression on the viewers in Germany – the biggest tv in the past of there.
The paper “Welt am Sonntag” published by Axel Springer considered it “a memorial to mothers and fathers”. Many press titles compared the movie with Marvin J. Chomsky "Holocaust"'s loud American four-series tv series, which aired NBC in 1979. This movie portrayed soldiers dressed in uniforms of the Polish Army, who together with Germans supervised transports of Jews to the Warsaw ghetto and participated in the fight against the judaic uprising in Warsaw. Then came the turn to repel allegations from Poland that the movie “Our mothers, our fathers” is powerfully anti-Polish and tries to make Poles the perpetrators of the Holocaust. The tabloid “Bild” to break down attacks from Poland, calmly communicated that nationalism and anti-Semitism in the ranks of the Home Army were not different and that at the time anti-Semitism was common in east Europe, which undoubtedly facilitated the slaughter of Jews. "Bild" accidentally forgot to add only who did it. After all, if German publications already mentioned that Nazis had done it, they were always “renationalised” and almost always Poles appeared next to them. Many German titles, quoting opinions on anti-Semitism of Poles, tried to build them, quoting the statements of serious experts and historians. 1 of them was Julius Schoeps of the European Jews researching the past of the Moses Mendelssohn Centre in Potsdam, which until late actively supported Erika Steinbach's activities and the Centre's task against Exiles. Schoeps pointed out that, of course, anti-Semitism cannot be applied to the full AK, but the scenes from the movie “Our Mothers, Our Fathers” correspond to the cases that occurred among Polish guerrillas. That sounded a lot more credible. Prof. Arnd Bauerkämpe from the Free University of Berlin and Prof. Wolfgang Benz from the Centre for Anti-Semitism investigation in Berlin spoke about the film. The second tried to close the discussion on Polish anti-Semitism, stating clearly that "anti-Semitism in Poland is inactive present today". The main German propaganda message has besides been reflected in many major press titles across Europe. The British "Independent" pointed out, among others, the phenomenon of renewed interest in the Germans with its latest history.
NEW GERMANY REMEMBER
The movie “Our Mothers, Our Fathers” and the propaganda run around it is just a fragment of the construction of a fresh German memory. planet War II is of course the most crucial in it. The fresh years in Germany have been peculiarly abounding in efforts to yet break German historical memory and make it look different from before. To accomplish this, Germany must forget that they were perpetrators of planet War II and committed all its horrors, and start talking about the harm they suffered as a result. 1 of their biggest harms is resettlement from Central and east Europe (Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania) after the war ended. It is for this intent that the Centre was designed against Exiles, which is to paper German "exiles" after planet War II. His initiator is Erika Steinbach, president of the Union of Exiles, supported by Chancellor Angela Merkel. The building of the centre is besides supported by many political and cultural figures, including German rabbi Walter Homolka and incumbent president Joachim Gauck.
For the purposes of the fresh historical policy, almost all media in Germany usage the word “Polish concentration camps”. This applies even to the Deutsche Press Agentur (DPA), which is equivalent to the Polish Press Agency. Many German politicians or people of the planet of culture like to talk about “Polish concentration camps”. Moreover, this word is commonly utilized in schools in past classes. Even secondary schools with a historical profile have in their programmes trips to “Polish concentration camps”.
Until recently, the gymnasium in Kirchheim on its websites reported a gathering of students with Abba Naor, who during the war was in the “Polish Stutthof concentration camp”, where his brother and parent were murdered. It's a typical language of historical communicative served to students in Germany. More and more often, however, “Polish concentration camps” are openly connected with Polish anti-Semitism, which was to be common with us. Not much – he is inactive present in Poland today. In fact, Polish anti-Semitism and Polish work for the demolition of Jews make a large deal in Germany. It just gets more and more fun. It is not a coincidence that during this year's movie festival in Berlin, Claude Lanzmann, the creator of the celebrated movie "Shoah", was the first to announce to the planet the participation of Poles in the Holocaust. But even more curiosity was that his painting “Sobibor” was described as a movie about the revolt of prisoners in “Polish extermination camp”.
SS – GEHLENA MANATURE OF THE POLISH OBOSY
In fact, the past of “Polish camps” began in Germany in the late 1950s. Germany was then forced to do everything to improve its image internationally. Not only the good name of the fresh state was at stake, but besides the money it could earn. After the war in countries that survived the German occupation, no 1 wanted to buy their goods. Consumers did not want to apply their hand to rebuilding Germany and their industry. Chief of the West German intelligence service General Reihard Gehlen and his men long wondered what propaganda measures to take to remedy this. It wasn't until early 1956 that Alfred Benzinger, a erstwhile Nazi, and at the same time the head of the supersecret counterintelligence service cell Agency 114, came up with the thought of how to remove work for war and the Holocaust from the Germans. Benzinger (called “Grubas”) proposed to start promoting in the media the word “Polish concentration camps” in relation to German extermination camps in Poland. This was to aid whitewash the Germans. His cunning plan gained acceptance from Reinhard Gehlen. But Benzinger needed proven and certain people to implement it. Therefore, he decided to trust almost exclusively on erstwhile members of the Gestapo, SS and SD. Many of them were war criminals, specified as Konrad Fiebig, accused of murdering 11,000 Belarusian Jews, or Walter Kurreck of SS Einsatzgruppe D's death squad, liable for tens of thousands of murders in the East. It was Benzinger's people who practically developed the concept to usage semantic manipulation and introduce the word "Polish concentration camps" into the media circulation. The allegations of manipulation were decided to defy the translation that specified a word is an abbreviation referring to Nazi extermination camps in Poland. In reality, however, this word subtly changed victims, in this case Poles, into perpetrators. At the same time, the conversion of concepts was forced and German criminals turned into a nation of devoid Nazis and Nazis – with the general engagement of the socialist bloc, which did not want the German comrades to feel discomfort.
When the British press wrote about the “gestapo boys” employed by German intelligence in the 1950s, the Chancellor Adenauer was informed in item about the case.
On 1 December 1953, Gehlen presented a study to the Bundestag safety Commission. He informed that 40 of his employees had a past in the Reichsführer SS safety Service. Discreetly he silenced the fact that he created an full army of secret collaborators recruiting from erstwhile criminals, including specified “distinguished” as the head of the Gestapo in Lyon and SS-Hauptsturmführer Klaus Barbie, known as the “Cat of Lyon”, who was by default sentenced to death in France in 1947. Barbie fled to Bolivia, where he hid as Klaus Altmann and was recruited by Gehlen's interview (it was given a nickname "Adler", registration number V-43118). He provided crucial information on the political situation in South America.
Initially, the word “Polish concentration camps” was utilized by the opinion-making German media: mainly newspapers and tv stations (to this end, agents were widely utilized in these environments). beautiful quickly, this date was transferred to the US. The communist authorities of the Polish People's Republic did not attach any importance to it. They felt it was simply a manifestation of imperialist propaganda. The standardization of Polish-German relations in 1970 pushed the problem of semantic lies of Gehlen's people to the background. Meanwhile, the operation was a remarkable success, and the lie cast by erstwhile SS men was increasingly repeated. present “Polish concentration camps” are already a permanent component of everyday life, not only in Germany, but besides in the world.
IN THE NAME OF PROPAGANDA
Germany is simply a hegemon in Europe. It is even gag that if individual wants to call Europe, they should choose the number of the Berlin office. However, Germany wants to lead not only Europe but besides the world. An 80-million-dollar country with its economic, industrial and technological possible does not gotta give way to France, the UK, and even the US, China and Russia. Germany wants and is likely to join the main players in planet politics in the future. To do so, however, they must change their own consciousness, deformed after the war by the feeling of historical guilt imposed upon them by the Allies. Germany must pass the blame on another nations. Poland is best suited for this. The results of the survey, which last year published the magazine "Stern", show that 65% of Germans are convinced that their country is not peculiarly liable for planet War II. That's beautiful good. The process of changing consciousness is inactive ongoing. The movie “Our Mothers, Our Fathers” is another tool utilized for this purpose. The completion of the reconstruction of German consciousness is 1 of the conditions that must be fulfilled in order for Germany to decide the destiny of the planet again.
The historical policy of the company, financed and quietly supported by successive Chancellors, including Angela Merkel, has been successful, although there are inactive witnesses of German atrocities. Afraid to think what happens erstwhile they're gone.
