Resistance

GERMAR RUDOLF, RESISTANCE IS OBLIGATORYI can very well understand the Germans’ fear of being suspected ofwanting to whitewash something. But that doesn’t change the fact thatby means of such revelations one can clearly recognize the true natureof article 130 of the German Penal Code and the taboo behind it, becausethey are nothing but spawns of anti-German racism. I, however,will allow nobody to deny me, solely based on my ethnic background,the right to ask critical questions about the history of my nation and topublish research results diverting from the octroyed dogma.Now I will summarize here the pseudo-logic hiding behind this absurdand criminal nonsense of persecuting dissidents. This logic ofthose in power in this country really amounts to this:Because in the past minorities have been persecuted, dissidentsimprisoned and books burned, one feels obliged to do everything inorder to prevent a repetition – even if that entails having to persecuteminorities, imprison dissidents and burn books.Because that is exactly what is happening today! Absolutely nothinghas been learned from the past. The table is merely turned around, andfor a change a different group is now being persecuted.I gladly admit that the dimension of today’s persecution is muchsmaller than that of the past, but the principles behind it are still thesame. And if I extrapolate the steadily increasing persecution of dissidentsby this state over the past three decades into the future, I really getscared. This has got to stop!With Immanuel Kant I have referred to a great Prussian, and nowpermit my referring to a no less famous contemporary of Kant, Frederickthe Great. Maybe you are familiar with the story of the miller ofSanssouci. Next to Frederick’s new castle Sanssouci was a windmill,whose noise annoyed Frederick. He wanted to buy the mill from themiller, but he rejected the offer. Frederick’s next intention to simplyexpropriate the miller failed, however, due to the decision of the BerlinHigh Court, whose verdict Frederick accepted.Now, much about this story might be more myth than truth. 273 It is afact, though, that Frederick the Great can be considered the father of thePrussian, and thus also the German, state under the rule of law due tohis voluntary submission under the law as indicated by this story.
