Hitler
is braising in hell. That's right, but it would be good to know
exactly how it came about. I would add that Kurt
Ludecke's memoirs
should be used as evidence for the indictment in the Nuremberg trial.
He should testify himself, but American lawyers realized that Puritan
America would tremble with outrage if certain circumstances came to
light, but not in the right direction.

December
of the year 1937. An at least seemingly highly interesting story of
Kurt
Ludecke,
a German globetrotter, adventurer, fundraiser and also a former Nazi
party supporter, was published in
New York.
The book, bearing an intriguing title: I
Knew Hitler.
The Story of a Nazi Who Escaped the Blood-Purge,
was intensively advertised by the Charles Scribner's Sons publishing
company.
The
author
was depicted as
an inscribed member of the Hitler's party and for many crucial years
a
close friend of Hitler himself.
It was said in 1933 he incurred new Chancellor's displeasure. As a
result was imprisoned, but was able to escape from the concentration
camp Oranienburg eight months later. Since then is living in United
States, hopes for the political asylum there, the publishing house
added.
A
villainous personage
Hitler's
future helper was raised in a wealthy Berlin family. He was the
youngest of three sons of a factory director.
Born
in 1890,
he did not want to lend a hand as a school-age boy to his education.
At his age he
felt the strong influence of the new age on himself,
which was characterized in Western Europe, and especially in the
German Reich, by the return to paganism, the gnosis and the breakdown
of the Christian order of values in
everyday life.
Obviously,
as a teenager, he was more interested in his own early maturity in
the sexual and intellectual field and the immediate benefits that
would come from it than in learning at school. It was difficult for
him to finish primary school and achieved that goal only when he was
17 years old. The troubled father immediately sent the gay son to the
ranks of the Prussian Corps of Imperial German Army.
In
the period after completing his military service, 1909-1914,
he traveled to Western Europe and generally stayed in France.
In
his memoirs, he claims that in 1910 he made so much money from
gambling there that from then on he was able to run his necessities
uphold without any job, so he could enjoy his pleasures. However, his
dossier with the public prosecutor's office archive in Berlin is a
proof that his early gained prosperity had other sources.
The
factory owner‘s son thus became a homosexual prostitute,
who sought out wealthy amateurs of some then strictly forbidden
pleasures in order to blackmail them. This
was what hard prison and hard, forced work stood for at the time.
This
meant in
the practice death sentences
for the cultured men from the so-called noble circles who never had
to work hard. Therefore, it was not difficult to
force his customers to make generous payments
if they were threatened (from abroad, especially from indeed tolerant
for the LGBT people France, so as not to be punished himself) with a
report of somebody’s homosexual deeds to the police or press.
Nevertheless,
several influential men failed
in love with his Ganymedes'
beauty,
and this enabled him to rise steeply in the world of big politics and
high finance
The
fact that he could live as a gigolo without material worries did not
mean that he had little left for his German fatherland, degraded and
driven to ruin after the First World War.
You
have to be extremely stupid or lying day after day and hour after
hour to not notice that there are patriots and even nationalists
among the so-called sexual minorities. There was also something else:
a
degree of anti-Semitism
was once characteristic for almost all industrial families. After
all, the Jews were successful and unpleasant competitors in the
industrial and commercial affairs.
So
Ludecke had no hesitation in becoming an employee of industrialist
Henry Ford's private intelligence agency based in New York City.
The secret service was given the task by its boss, the brilliant
industrialist and social reformer, to
spy on the influential American Jews, along with their numerous
families,
so that, if they annoyed Ford too much, they would then be finished
or weaken. Henry Ford was neither a homosexual nor a gays’ friend,
but knew that the Ludecke had many good acquaintances suitable as
helpers for that kind of activities in Germany, Switzerland, Austria,
Italy and France.
Kurt
L. was able to achieve a lot in the capacity of a secret agent, no
wonder since so-called Jewish studies boomed
at the time in Western Europe
There
are many examples of this that are very little known today. The
swastika “crusaders” took advantage of this after the takeover
and published a whole series of books, which should prove the harmful
role of Jewish people in Europe and America. If you read any of it,
you will be amazed by the huge amount of various details that also
had to be conquered and gathered secretly. Hundreds of people worked
on it.
In
this capacity, he also became useful for Hitler and his movement
After
hearing Hitler speak
at a mass demonstration in Munich's Königsplatz (1922), he had
recognized the future Chancellor and German Leader as his personal
hero. As wrote many years later: "His appeal to German manhood
was like a call to arms, the gospel he preached a sacred truth."
The next day, he (really or allegedly?) spoke to Hitler for four
hours and offered himself to Hitler and the Nazi cause "without
any reservation...I
had given him my soul.“
(According
to the English Wikipedia, the keyword: Kurt Lüdecke)
For
several years the clever man was a follower of the black-white-red
swastika and Hitler's personal negotiator
He
certainly exaggerated the importance of his services for the Nazi
cause in his book published
in exile. It is crystal clear that the crucial part of the material
support of the Nazi movement came from other mediators too. The only
verifiable historical fact seems to be his successful mission in
Rome, at Mussolini. As a result, the fascist dictator of Italy
allowed the journalists to make Hitler more understandable to the
Italian and international audience in an interview with the then
little known internationally fanatic from Germany. Unlike nowadays,
Italian was a widely known international language during
the 1920s and 1930s.
Until
1933 Hitler had a friendly attitude towards the adventurer and
fundraiser, really useful to him, or the two were simply good
acquaintances. In the end, this
ended in disgrace on the part of the newly minted dictator as the
former Gigolo, whose previous sources of income were gradually drying
up, turned to Hitler with extensive financial demands.
It must be remembered that during the first two years of his
government, the “beautiful Adi” had to fight huge unemployment
and simply could not afford such gratitude. But the Fuhrer also had
to pay his price for this.
These
allegedly credible memoirs of the former Nazi negotiator were only
the first in a whole series of books and films, which had one aim
behind
Namely
to present the brown German government worse than ridiculous to the
US public. The 833-page book contained claims about the private life
of the NSDAP leaders, which can be compared to the writing style of
the historians from the senatorial-republican upper class in relation
to the first Roman emperors. To put it briefly, he
attributed various disgraceful peculiarities and an insatiable
bloodthirstiness to his former friends in the Nazi leadership.
This played the main role in the fact that the so-called New Order in
Europe fell into stereotypical dark thought patterns across the
Atlantic.
I
hope to show how far such patterns of thought, at least before
November 1938, had to arise due to further falsification of the
situation in the world at that time, in my next article.
That's
pathetic!
Ludeсke
ridiculed the Jews,
but the American Caesar, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, idolised them. As
a result, the
сreator of the first propaganda rocket launched from the United
States against Germany was
not able to obtain not only American citizenship, but also asylum or
the right to permanent residence. Instead, he was
thrown behind bars and then into an
isolation
camp for
potentially dangerous aliens.
After the war, he was deported to West Germany, where he ended his
mortal life in 1960.
