A short history of racist laws, holocaust and genocide

U.S. Racist laws adapted by the Nazis, refined by the Zionists and the Christian Afrikaners, still define US policy today.

Judges 16:30, KJV, tells us; Samson died when he grasped two pillars of the Temple of Dagon, and "bowed himself with all his might". Preferring to kill himself along with all inside rather than accept defeat. Israels nuclear ‘Samson Option’ references Samson bringing down the entire edifice rather than accept defeat in their right to genocide indefinitely.

Although South African apartheid as a comprehensive legislative project truly began after the National Party came into power in 1948, many of the best known apartheid statutes were preceded by the laws of the previous British and Afrikaner administrations. Racist legislation has a long history from even before Britain made the trading of slaves legal and protesting the slave trade, illegal.

An early South African precedent to Apartheid is is the Glen Grey Act, instigated by the government of Prime Minister Cecil John Rhodes in 1894, which had the effect of diminishing the land rights of Africans in scheduled areas. The start of the ethnostate disenfranchising the non-white local population by law.

At the same turn of century time that the White Leader-class in Africa was developing racist legislation for race based white advantage, the White leader-class in the USA was evolving a similar racist legal arrangement for white benefit. Both running along similar lines.

Laws made for and by rich white men, who are mostly the tallest rich white men, for the benefit of all rich white men.

Racist legislation served to institutionalize racial discrimination and the dominance by white men over people of other races. The White ethnostate. In South African the bulk of apartheid legislation was enacted as the law of the Land after the election of the Christian Nationalist Racist ‘National Party’ government in 1948.

In post abolition USA racist legislation became necessary for ongoing white advantage after the Abolition of Slavery. In January 1865, an amendment to the Constitution abolishing slavery in the United States was proposed by Congress and ratified as the Thirteenth Amendment on December 18, 1865.

This Thirteenth amendment abolished slavery with a curiously sinister racist twist. Incarcerated felons were not entitled to this newly legislated Thirteenth Amendment freedom, meaning that any Black person criminalized could be exploited as a slave, perhaps explaining why so many Black people have been jailed by white courts in the for-profit prisons system using the Thirteenth amendment to monetize racist laws for the entitled white few.

Whites chosen for this benefit by the Laws they made even in the process of abolishing their first batch of racist laws in which owning slaves was a white right worth going to war for.

In the post abolition, U.S., successive Governments ensured white advantage over a rising former-slave black-underclass by determined legislative support. Racist laws written by rich white men, most of whom were tall.

All manner of racist laws evolved to prevent Black people from equal status in every area that mattered; from voting rights to education to work opportunities. Laws similar in many ways to those emerging from White law-makers in Africa.

In practice, Jim Crow laws mandated racial segregation in all public facilities in the states of the former Confederate States of America as well as some others, beginning in the 1870s.

Racist legislation contrived by successive Rich-White-Man Administrations using fascist methods to enforce white privilege that included humiliation, deprivations and about 4,000 lynchings that were the social events of the time. Social gatherings where crew-cut white American teenagers dressed up in Church clothes to chaperone their sweet-as-apple pie young-Christian-American dates to attend the lynching.

Racist enforcement of white superiority was not just legal, it was a sexy component of coming of age romance in the USA.

Lynchings drew big crowds that smart entrepreneurs increasingly monetized with lynch merch. Lynching postcards carried a photograph of a good ol White on Black American lynching as a souvenir.

Often the lynching postcard would be inscribed with racist text or poems. Postcards established the commercial opportunity for White entrepreneurs to profit from the demand for racist tropes, in turn influencing the support for legislation entrenching White superiority in both popular culture and the law.

Coon cards were popular for many decades. "The postcard was wildly successful both as correspondence and collectible" and thus postcards are valuable sources for cultural historians as both a form of epistolary literature and for the bank of cultural imagery included in the postcard illustrations reflecting historic popular culture norms and tropes.

Coon cards were produced by white manufacturers for white customers presenting African Americans stereotypes common to the popular media of the day. The racist caricature was part of the popular appeal of the postcards as "image content was clearly driven by free market forces, rather than the intention to present an accurate depiction of people, places, or things."

Supply and demand capitalism recognised the demand for racist tropes reinforcing white rights with the right to hang blacks by neck the neck like so much strange fruit. In Jesus name, led by Christian organisations like the Jesus first Ku Klux Klan.

For example, Black children were typically depicted as pickaninnies eating watermelon or being used as alligator bait. African American adults were depicted as intellectually and morally inferior to whites and were associated with cakewalking, fried chicken, watermelon, cotton, lack of conscientiousness, laziness, ribaldry, sexual promiscuity, rape, domestic violence, gambling, alcoholism, cannibalism, and stinky farts.

At the same time, across the ocean in Germany, racism and the opportunity for Whites to profit from racist legislation followed the rise of the Conservative religious right.

Hitler became Chancellor in January 1933, winning absolute power that included control over Germanys legislature. His advisors already had experience of racist laws in Africa, especially from South West Africa where Heinrich Ernst Göring, the father of Hermann the German Nazi Luftwaffe commander who became the second most powerful Nazi after Hitler, passed many racist laws paving the way for a final solution by way of racist genocide of the Herero and Nama in 1904–1907.

The first phase of this early 20th century German genocide following racist-legislation was characterized by widespread death from starvation and dehydration, due to the prevention of the Herero from leaving the Namib desert by German forces. Once defeated, thousands of Hereros and Namas were imprisoned in concentration camps, where the majority died of diseases, abuse, and exhaustion.

Starvation and dehydration leading to death in a concentration camp by disease and abuse is a common methodology for the Nazi genocider.

By 1933 Hitler’s cabinet drawing up racist laws for the new Nazi regime had many established legal systems to turn to and learn from. The most significant landmark in this process came into German law after two years.

The two foundational racist “Nuremberg Laws” were enacted in 1935 at a special meeting of the Reichstag convened during the annual Nuremberg Rally of the Nazi Party.

The Law for the Protection of German Blood and German Honour, forbade marriages and extramarital intercourse between Jews and Germans and the employment of German females under 45 in Jewish households.

The Reich Citizenship Law declared that only those of German or related blood were eligible to be Reich citizens. The remainder were classed as state subjects without any citizenship rights. Disenfranchised.

The laws were expanded on November 26, 1935 to include Romani and Black people. This supplementary decree defined Romani people as "enemies of the race-based state", the same category as Jews.

The Nuremberg Laws laid the legal groundwork for what followed; the legal mass-murder of hostages by reprisal raids, forced labor, "euthanasia," starvation, exposure, medical experiments and in the concentration and death camps.

Entitled by their racist ideology becoming the Law of Germany, the Nazis went on to murder some 15,003,000 to 31,595,000 people. First came the opportunity to make law for a specific intention, then followed the consequences for those Germans who elected a racist fascist to resonate with their own racist fascist inclination.

The Nazis executed a state-sponsored, systematic campaign of mass-murder and persecution against those deemed inferior, legally.

Those Germans who opposed genocidal racist mass murder, like for example, Sophie Scholl and her White Rose student protestors, were designated as terrorists, and summarily beheaded, for breaking the Law. A legitimized procedure, following a court hearing with a judge, a stenographer, and legal statutes providing the guidelines for sentencing.

Genociding children was legal. Protesting genocide was not.

Establishing the exact number legally killed in the racist Nazi genocide is challenging, however convenient scholarly consensus that I will go with for this word-assembly places the number at around 20 million.

Victims of the Nazi racist genocide in the name of a master race of chosen few included;
Men, Women, special needs children and adults, the old and infirm, prisoners of war, forced slave-laborers, criminals, critics, homosexuals, Jews, Slavs, Serbs, Poles, Ukrainians, Romani, Jehovah’s witnesses, Communists and many others. Among the 20 million dead by racist laws, them some 1,000,000 were children under eighteen years of age of which some were Jewish.

Although some 20 million died in the racist genocide, the word Genocide as well as the word Holocaust were both equally appropriated for the exclusive association with only one of those devastated ethnic identities; the Jewish people.

After World War II ended with victory for the anti fascists, German law was changed. It turned out that mass child murder was not legal after all.

Germany was obliged to pay war reparations to the Allied governments, according to rulings following the Potsdam Conference. Reparations were to be directly paid to the four victor powers (France, United Kingdom, United States, and the Soviet Union). To coordinate the distribution of the reparations between the victor powers, the Allied Control Council was established.

And that was that. All the victims of Nazism had some form of consensual legal redress. The world could to forward to rebuilding and healing from the horrors of what Christian nationalist racism made into law by fascism, visited on the entire planet.

Although Germany concluded a variety of treaties with Western and Eastern countries and made complex reparation agreements including; confiscating large amounts of German patents, copyrights and trademarks worth 10’s of billions (in 1948) dollars; and pressing Millions of Germans into forced labour for several years to work for the Allies in camps, mining, harvesting or industry, there appears to be only one category of reparation for the victims of the Holocaust in which only the Jewish people won damages.

The Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany, better known as the Claims Conference was founded over 73 years ago, in October 1951, in New York. Starting three years after Potsdam decided the issue of reparations for the Nazi atrocities.

The Claims Conference with The World Jewish Congress began a claim for compensation for the victims of what was presented as the exclusively ‘Jewish Holocaust’.

Since 1953, many billions have gone from Germany to Israel in negotiated reparations payments that continue to be renegotiated to this day. Reparations that funded the infrastructure for the newly declared State of Israel.

In the reparation process for the racist nazi murders of some 20 million, the Jewish lawyers representing the six million succeeded where the other 14 million victims representation has not. The Chosen Few from the 20 million.

Parity in valuing lives of those 20 million discriminated against victims of the Nazi genocide is related to the appropriation of the two words; Holocaust and Genocide, for one beneficiary, that comes at the expense of the rest.

The word holocaust, derives from a Greek word meaning 'burnt offering'. An ordinary English word also meaning 'destruction or sacrifice by fire' or, figuratively, 'massacre'. During the 1950s, Holocaust was appropriated by Zionist interests in fomenting globally outrage for the Nazis killings, reappearing as a proper noun used to describe the Nazi extermination of Jews. To the detriment of every other holocaust victim.

Genocide means; the crime of intentionally destroying part or all of a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group, by killing people or by other methods. During the fifties the vast majority of new English students learned the genocide means “What the Germans did to the Jews in The Holocaust.”

It is no less than ironic for Greeks who gave these words to the English language that 99.8% of people questioned in my survey on this subject had no idea of the Greek Genocide or the Greek Holocaust. Those two words, for 99.8% of people questioned mean “What the Germans did to the Jews.”

The Greek genocide that was not even the first genocide of the 20th century, was the systematic killing of the Christian Ottoman Greek population of Anatolia, which was carried out mainly during World War I and its aftermath (1914–1922), including the Turkish War of Independence (1919–1923), on the basis of religion and ethnicity.

This classical genocide with added holocaust killing many by fire in Smyrna, was perpetrated by the government of the Ottoman Empire led by the Three Pashas and by the Government of the Grand National Assembly led by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, against the indigenous Greek population of the Empire.

The genocide, one of many hundreds of genocides in the history of genocides, included massacres, forced deportations involving death marches through the Syrian Desert, expulsions, summary executions, and the destruction of Eastern Orthodox cultural, historical, and religious monuments.

The Greeks though failed to monetize and popularize the theme of ‘AntiHellenism’ and appropriate the two big words, Genocide and Holocaust, for their exclusive benefit, leaving the coast clear for the Zionists to do that in the fifties.

The number of identically affected victims of the Nazi Holocaust who are under-served by reparations for the identical offense includes;

The 275,000 special-needs kids murdered at Aktion T4, the 500,000 Romani, the near 2,400,000 Poles, (Although in 2022 Polish efforts began to claim over a trillion in damages from Germany.) The 3,000,000 Ukrainians, 1,593,000 Russians, and 1,400,000 Byelorussians, many of these among the best and brightest men, women and children, whose value can probably never meet any financial reparation calculation. The homosexual communities in all Nazi occupied countries who were mass murdered.

It’s a long list of victims who died in the holocaust of racist genocide that Nazism visited on some 20 million human beings, although only one chosen few turned that into a multi billion dollar industry.

After Hitler rose to power in 1933, the Nazis began implementing racist policies with a clear and obvious intention. In April of 1933 Adolf Hitler declared a national boycott of Jewish businesses, and the Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service, excluded so-called non-Aryans from the legal profession, the civil service, and from teaching in secondary schools and universities.

Books considered un-German, including Karl Marx’s Capital. A Critique of Political Economy, were destroyed in a nationwide book burning on May 10, 1933. Target minorities including Homosexuals, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Communists and Jewish citizens were harassed and subjected to violent attacks. They were actively suppressed, stripped of their citizenship and civil rights, and eventually completely removed from German society.

Only after the successful implementation of racist Nazi Apartheid laws that made mass-murder legal would some 20 million people die by mass-murder. Genocide is always legal when it happens. Genocide is often only ended by superior force making mass-murder illegal. Genocide is never erased from the history books. The guilty are never forgotten by history, even if they die before Justice finds them in the dock.

When Germans wrote their version of racist legislation to enable mass-murder benefitting the chosen-few white elites, the German White-Man-Leader class looked to global precedents for inspiration.

According to James Q. Whitman, author of Hitler's American Model: The United States and the Making of Nazi Race Law, that legal model came from the United States.

“America in the early 20th century was the leading racist jurisdiction in the world,” says Whitman, a professor at Yale Law School. “Nazi lawyers, as a result, were interested in, looked very closely at, and, were ultimately influenced by American race law.”

In particular, Nazis admired the Jim Crow-era laws that discriminated against Black Americans and segregated them from white Americans, and they debated whether to introduce similar segregation in Germany.

Ultimately they decided that it wouldn’t go far enough.

“One of the most striking Nazi views was that Jim Crow was a suitable racist program in the United States because American Blacks were already oppressed and poor,” he says. But then in Germany, by contrast, where the Jews were largely above the average, by income, more specific statutes made more sense.

Because of this, Nazis were more interested in how the U.S. had designated Native Americans, Filipinos and other groups as non-citizens even though they lived in the U.S. or its territories. These models influenced the citizenship portion of the Nuremberg Laws, which stripped lesser-Germans of their citizenship and classified them as “nationals.”

When the Nazis began their blitzkrieg on September 1, 1939, famously, the U.S. did not join the European defense siding against fascism. Preferring, by an 85% majority, non-intervention.

‘He who is not against me is for me’, is what many who chose to fight against fascism believed at the time .

For more than two years the vast majority in the U.S. allowed Hitler to ravage the planet unopposed by America, who only joined the British and Russian efforts after news reporting on December 7, 1941 swung American opinion against fascism by monetizing anti fascism in a military Industrial Complex the likes of which the world had never seen before, or since.

During this time when Britain and Russia stood alone against the might of the most powerful army the world had ever seen many American companies including Ford, Texaco and IBM profited commercially by assisting the Nazi genocide. Siding with what they believed would be the most likely winners. Successful capitalism depends largely on siding with Winners.

IBM’s role in defying U.S. trade sanctions on Nazi Germany to provide census data that would enable the effective rounding up of minority groups for transport to death camps is well known.

South Africa evolved their famous variation of racist laws of Apartheid by drawing from British racist precedent in which they were themselves the victims of racist genocide in the Kings concentration camps of the Anglo Boer war in 1901. The first genocide and holocaust of the 20th century, perpetuated by the British.

In conjunction with the other Apartheid state, Israel, South Africa implemented a detailed and effective set of Apartheid laws that raised the bar set by American and German legislation.

Both these post WW2 Apartheid states faced arms sanctions affecting their ability to defend themselves against the enemies of Apartheid. United Nations Security Council Resolution 418 adopted unanimously on November 4, 1977, imposed a mandatory arms embargo against South Africa. This served to accelerate their own Arms development, that soon led to a Nuclear capability.

Israel and South Africa, jointly tested a Nuclear weapon on September 22, 1979, in the so called Vela Incident. Ironically, I was a teenaged conscript in the apartheid Army at the time, two years, 1979-1980, a bandsman in the entertainment corps, at a function including officers from Pelindaba, celebrating their progress in the Nuclear arena. It was no secret inside the South African Military.

On September 22, 1979, a US Vela satellite, designed to detect clandestine nuclear tests, recorded a “flash” off the coast of South Africa that every nuclear scientist monitoring the satellite’s detectors at the time believed fit the classic description of a nuclear explosion. President Jimmy Carter’s book based on his White House diaries notes that he was immediately informed of the “flash” by his national security team.

Carters diary records his disappointment that Zionist elements inside the U.S. Government successfully ensured that data and analysis has remained classified, despite attempts to get the government to remove the classification and to force Israel to accept Nuclear weapons monitors. Carter was unsuccessful then, just as Kennedy was unsuccessful in 1963.

As a result Israel today has an enormous Nuclear arsenal, funded in part by reparations earned by litigation against Germany.

While South Africa abandoned their Nuclear program as well as Apartheid after thirty years, the illegal State of Israel continues Apartheid tyranny armed with an arsenal of Nuclear warheads ready to Samson option at any time.

Israels Apartheid laws owe a debt to the Nazi racist laws that owe a debt to U.S. Jim Crow Laws, to this day.

Israel continues as a racist Apartheid state free to genocide at will only with the ironclad and unflinching multi-billion dollar annual support by the Jim Crowe era racists still ruling the U.S. as a white supremacist nation.

A government entitled to spend trillions killing non-whites globally for the benefit of a very few rich-white-men who are mostly tall, rather than spending the same number of trillions on American infrastructure benefitting all Americans equally.

A heady cocktail of irony, tragedy, grift, catastrophe and authoritarian militarized racism blended into one perfected version of Zionist America, making mass-child murder of lesser-Christian children perfectly legal. Just as it always is in every genocide.

In this process of rule by racist gaslit fascism, protestors opposing mass-child murder on humanitarian grounds are increasingly criminalized by the overtly racist white-administration remaining committed, ironclad, to the same racist ideology that started the entire Nazi era apartheid legislation.

Not even trying to conceal their racist fascist entitlement to Monetize genocide legally.

Hitlers Nuremberg parade in 1935 when the Nuremberg Laws were passed into Law. Parades are always good for Christian Nationalist Administrations to encourage conformist obedience.
