German Nazi official, a major organiser of the Holocaust
POPULARITY
Après les manifestations pro-palestiniennes qui ont débuté à Science Po il y a plusieurs semaines, c'était au tour de l'université La Sorbonne de voir sa cour investie d'étudiants, ce lundi 29 mars, avec des tentes et des drapeaux palestiniens, dans l'intention d'un blocage. Invitée dans les 4 vérités, Sylvie Retailleau, Ministre de l'Enseignement supérieur et de la Recherche de France, argue qu'il est important que l'université reste un lieu de débat, mais d'un « débat cadré », « acceptant la controverse », et « avec un cadre serein ». Pour la ministre, il existe également une différence entre les lieux de manifestations : si celles à l'intérieur de l'université n'entrent pas dans ce cadre, celles au dehors de ses murs, au contraire, « font partie de la démocratie ». À l'heure actuelle, des blocages existent seulement au sein de Sciences Po, La Sorbonne, et nouvellement Nanterre, avec une vingtaine d'étudiants au 29 mars, mais des appels sont relayés partout en France. « On reste vigilants », assure la femme politique, qui a invité l'ensemble des présidents d'université à discuter avec elle jeudi 2 mai afin de « trouver l'équilibre entre la liberté d'expression et le non-blocage ». Le 29 avril, sur X, Valérie Pécresse a annoncé « suspendre tous les financements de la région Ile-de-France » destinés à l'IEP tant que la sécurité ne sera pas rétablie. Pas question, en revanche, de couper les subsides de l'État aux universités à l'heure actuelle, indique la ministre. Pour autant, un « contrat d'objectifs de moyens et de discussions » est en cours avec le Premier ministre Gabriel Attal. Comme son nom l'indique, ce contrat se veut un moyen de trouver des leviers de discussion. « Nous resterons fermes », martèle Sylvie Retailleau Face à ces mobilisations, la direction de Science Po est-elle en train de faillir ? La ministre rappelle que vendredi 26 avril, celle-ci a dû saisir la préfecture de police. Les échanges ont finalement abouti à ce que François-Xavier Bellamy a qualifié le 28 avril sur Europe 1 d'« accord de la honte. » « On va organiser un grand débat sur la légitimité de ces expressions antisémites ? », s'était insurgé le chef de file LR aux élections européennes. « Je pense qu'[il] devrait regarder l'accord un peu plus précisément. Nous resterons fermes », a martelé Sylvie Retailleau, précisant qu'aucune sanction contre les propos antisémites n'avait été abandonnée. Dans le même temps, du côté de Science Po, il n'y aura, indique-t-elle, aucun boycott des relations avec les académies d'Israël, comme demandé par les manifestants. Lundi 29 avril, le gouvernement a annoncé qu'il allait porter plainte pour « injures publiques devant un agent public » à l'encontre de Jean-Luc Mélenchon après qu'il a comparé le président de l'université de Lille au nazi Adolph Eichmann. « Je ne l'ai pas traité de nazi. Je ne pense pas qu'il le soit. J'ai dénoncé l'exemple de sa lâcheté », a rétorqué le chef des Insoumis. « Faisons une campagne européenne (…) Il y a tant de choses à défendre au niveau de l'Europe », revendique la ministre, incitant à concentrer son attention sur les priorités.
Post WWII, Israel hunts and captures the dreaded Nazi Official, Adolph Eichmann in a foreign country and smuggles him out, to bring him to justice in Israel. The CIA conducts the espionage coup of the century by taking over a key crypto provider without its clients having any knowledge. The KGB masterminds the first documented case of cyber espionage.
The banality of evil. Hannah Arendt's famous observation during the trial of Adolph Eichmann, the ‘architect of the Holocaust.' There's new evidence that Eichmann's evil was anything but banal.
175 - Is evil a quality that only resides within the most wicked of men? We have been taught to reserve the categorization of evil for the most heinous of historical figures. However, this has led us to forget that most evil is carried out by ordinary men. What is it that drives a civilized man to carry out the worst of atrocities? For somebody living unconsciously, there is a very thin margin of conditions that will determine if they live a life of virtue or iniquity. Normalcy does not equate to morality, which is currently putting us into dangerous territory and creating the perfect conditions for global totalitarianism.Topics include:-Adolph Eichmann and the banality of evil-Man's quest for normalcy-The threat of mandatory vaccination and loss of bodily autonomy-Awakening humanity from mass psychosisI misspoke during this episode, there was a 40% increase in premature non-covid deaths.Article: Insurance Companies Report Increase in Premature Deaths Subscribe on SubstackCoaching Offerings:Find Your Freedom: Life CoachingMasculinity CoachingTarot ReadingsSupport my work directly:Donations: PayPal | Venmo | CryptoThe Fifth Dimension ShopSocial Media:InstagramTelegramTwitterYoutubeEvan's book The Story of Interconnectivity: A Guide to Awakening to Your Natural State is available now!

Ian Lustick is a prominent political scientist at the University of Pennsylvania. He is known for his analysis of intractable conflicts: South Africa, Algeria, Northern Ireland, and Israel-Palestine. I discussed some of his ideas in the podcast on The Black Swan. In his book Paradigm Lost Lustick discusses why the option of a two-state solution is no longer possible. He says there is now a single state reality containing Israel and Palestine. He also discusses how Israeli thinking of the Holocaust has gone through four stages, with dramatically different implications for public policy. There were several opportunities in the past for Israel to make a serious effort to create a Palestinian state. There were partners available. Why did Israel not take this opportunity to solve a problem that could potentially destabilize the state? He says there are two reasons rooted in how the Israelis think – one involves the idea of an Iron Wall and the other an understanding of the Holocaust. There is also a political factor, the role of the Israel Lobby in America. His discussion of these factors is deeply analytical and grounded in reality. After all, he is a political scientist. This is my summary of Lustick's thinking. If you are concerned about this conflict, you should listen to this podcast. And if you think it is as important as I do, you should probably buy this book to discover all the things I did not have time to discuss. Glitch: The Reagan Plan, also called the Comprehensive Solution, was in 1982. Sorry for the confusion. People Mentioned: Meir Pa'il, David Ben-Gurion, Vladimir Jabotinsky, Menachem Begin, Ariel Sharon, Konrad Adenauer, Shimon Peres, Yitzhak Rabin, King Fahd, James Madison, Golda Meir, Adolph Eichmann, President George H.

"This book tells what should have been known and isn't—that Israel's hidden force is as formidable as its recognized physical strength." — Israeli President Shimon Peres For decades, Israel's renowned security arm, the Mossad, has been widely recognized as the best intelligence service in the world. In Mossad, authors Michael Bar-Zohar and Nissim Mishal take us behind the closed curtain with riveting, eye-opening, boots-on-the-ground accounts of the most dangerous, most crucial missions in the agency's 60-year history.

Anyone who is fascinated by the world of international espionage, intelligence, and covert "Black-Ops" warfare will find Mossad electrifying reading. Mossad unveils the defining and most dangerous operations, unknown heroes, and mysterious agents of the world's most respected—and most enigmatic—intelligence service. Here are the thrilling stories of daring top secret missions, including the capture of Adolf Eichmann, the eradication of Black September, the destruction of the Syrian nuclear facility, and the elimination of key Iranian nuclear scientists. Drawn from intensive research and exclusive interviews with Israeli leaders and Mossad operatives, this riveting history brings to life the brave agents, deadly villains, and major battlegrounds that have shaped Israel and the world at large for more than sixty years.
In this episode, Ross and Blake discuss the 2018 spy thriller “Operation Finale” and the history behind the mission that apprehended one of the most evil men in history. They discuss the planning and execution of Mossad's daring 1960 capture of Adolph Eichmann, a chief perpetrator of the Holocaust. Leave a listener message!: https://anchor.fm/bit-by-bit1/message
Anne Heller is the author of the groundbreaking biography "Ayn Rand and the World She Made." Anne delves into Ayn Rand’s early childhood in czarist Russia, through the Russian Revolution, to her life and career in the United States. Anne has also written "Hannah Arendt: A Life in Dark TImes," a biography about the controversial woman who wrote a 1963 New Yorker series and book on the trial of Adolph Eichmann.
Cliches are rhetorical weapons of mass destruction. In 1963, Hitler’s second-in-command, Adolph Eichmann, was tried for war crimes in Jerusalem. In attendance at the trial was Hannah Arendt, a philosopher and journalist and also a Jew who managed to escape Europe during Nazi occupation. Arendt, who is brilliant, unsurprisingly made a lot of brilliant observations. Foremost among them was the degree to which Eichmann’s ability to put six million people to their horrifying deaths depending on his ability to think in any nuanced or creative way about what he was doing. Arendt’s report on the trial gave birth to the phrase “the banality of evil,” which means, quite simply, that the most depraved acts are authorized by the most superficial ways of thinking. In her words, “The longer one listened to him, the more obvious it became that his inability to speak was closely connected with an inability to think; that is, to think from the standpoint of somebody else. No communication with him was possible, not because he lied but because he was surrounded by the most reliable of all safeguards against the words of others, or even the presence of others, and hence against reality as such. Now, obviously, plenty of people go about their days using all manner of cliches and do not turn into Adolph Eichmann. The point isn’t that banality automatically yields evil but rather that evil is not possible without the insulation from critical thought that banality provides.

Join Nancy and Drew as they discuss the life, crimes, and surprisingly classy last meal of the Tour Guide Barbie of the Holocaust! We did Nazi this coming!
Introduction “Never Forget” when voiced this time of year refers to the sneak attack on civilians on 9/11/01, killing almost 3,000 of us. The attackers targeted unarmed civilians. When I was our youngest son’s age, “Never Forget” admonished, equally loudly and passionately, for us to always remember the Pearl Harbor sneak attack--executed during pretend peace negotiations on behalf of the attacking Japanese--on our military base in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii on 12/7/41, killing a similar number. For others of that time, Never Forget referred to the Holocaust. We have all but completely forgotten Pearl Harbor. The Holocaust was little known outside of the survivors and perpetrators until 15 years after WWII ended; it was the 1960 televised trial of Adolph Eichmann, the head of the SS who organized the Holocaust, that brought those lasting horrors to light internationally. Yet that memory also fades. And Never Forget about 9/11 will also be forgotten. Are these fading memories healing and beneficial, or are these dim memories red flags about what we have not learned from history, and are doomed to repeat? That is the subject of today’s 10-minute episode. Continuing Allow me to start this part of our time together with two questions: Must these need-to-be-remembered events be enormous disasters, or can then include less momentous and uplifting actions? Why are we advised to remember these events? Is it bedause we should be mentally clenching our fists, saying “Never Forget” because these SOBs are not going to get away with something like that again? Or are there more important, more universally applicable lessons we need to learn--and remember? I’ll start with adding some other memories that we should know about in the first place, and should never forget after we understand them: Charles Lindberg’s first solo crossing by airplane of the Atlantic in 1927. Inspired by the prestigious Orteig Award and $25K cash prize, fancy money then, several well-funded groups competed to be the first to fly across the ocean; more for the fame than the cash. Lindberg was flying WWI planes carrying US mail when he decided to compete and win. No money, no backers; he just made a decision. And he did it. The lesson here is the power of making a decision and sticking to it. Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962: The Cuban Missile Crisis was a successful 13-day confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union prompted by the American discovery of Soviet ballistic missile deployment in Cuba. The lesson here is that from time-to-infrequent-time, America needs to put it all on the line to keep the peace and remain secure. I want to share an informative eventful experience with you. In 1989 I was at the “Bay Bridge” World Series between the San Francisco Giants and the Oakland A’s. It was game 3, with the Giants having lost the first two. I took the bus up from San Mateo, CA where I lived at the time. The ride was loud, raucous and a ton of fun, compete with face-painted fans, beer coolers and shouted predictions of victory for one team or the other. I had a Sony Watchman portable TV in my lap in the stadium as the crowd awaited the start of the game. The players were taking the field; it was still daylight and the stadium lights were not yet turned on. Suddenly, there was a loud rumbling and shaking that went on for a long moment. No one had any idea that we had just been hit by the 7.0 Loma Prieta earthquake that would kill 63 people and injure more than 3,700. Some fans were yelling “Play ball!” and others were just confused. I looked at my TV and all the channels were showing the test pattern. Others observed that certain radio stations were off the air. Power to the stadium had been knocked out, so there were no announcements. It was not until the umps picked up the bases and the players went into the stands to be with their families that we figured out that an earthquake had hit,
Nearly 15 years after the defeat of Nazi Germany a number of leaders of the genocidal regime remained in hiding and had not yet been made to face consequences for their actions. One such man was Adolph Eichmann. This is the story of his capture and prosecution.
Mark Hartley and Gary Hillberg discuss the movies that focus on war criminal Adolph Eichmann including Operation Finale (Netflix) Mark and I chat with veteran editor Ralph Strasser about his 40 year career from Swinburne Film School to working with Esben Storm.
Josh is joined by recurring guests Adam Lichtenstein and Fred Kolb to discuss Operation Finale, the Oscar Isaac-Ben Kingsley vehicle about the hunt for Adolph Eichmann, one of Hitler's top lieutenants.
Hello fellow movie nerds and welcome to another incredible episode of the Reel Film Nerds podcast! Today we talk about a very serious and incredible drama based on a true story, Operation Finale starring Sir Ben Kinglsey and Oscar Isaac. The film is based on the hunting down and capture of escaped Holocaust mastermind Adolph Eichmann. Your hosts do stray off topic a bit especially Matt like always but they do their best to steer the review back on course. The guys talk about why history is important, college, and World War 2 based movies The Darkest Hour and Dunkirk. This is one of the more serious podcasts the guys have done but it is a very serious film on an incredible true story. Mike and Matt both loved this movie and highly recommend you see it even if you can’t make it to the local movie theater and have to watch it later when it comes out on Blu-ray or Netflix. It is incredibly impactful and well acted by the majority of the cast, sorry Nick Kroll you sucked. Matt and Mike both give the film 4 out of 5 Reels. This Thursday Matt and Mike review a film that is basically the exact opposite of Operation Finale. The hosts review a cult classic drug riddle story based around the book and life of famed journalist Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas starring Johnny Depp and Benicio Del Toro.

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the fifth and final study session on Neil Postman's Crazy Talk, Stupid Talk: How We Defeat Ourselves By the Way We Talk and What to Do About It. Postman is a Suspected Racist, who authored a stack of well regarded literature, including: Amusing Ourselves To Death; Teaching as a Subversive Activity; and How to Watch TV News. A prolific writer, Postman penned 18 books, was a professor of media ecology at New York University, and a critic of technology and the use of words. Students of counter-racism recognize the primary weapon of Racists is the incorrect and deceptive use of words. We'll remember this while investigating Crazy Talk, Stupid Talk. Last week's session explored the different varieties of "propaganda" - emphasizing that emotional attempts to persuade most often work best on groups of people as opposed to individuals. Postman's own White Supremacy may have been revealed as he used written commentary on former Black Panther George Jackson as an example of how "intellectuals" or members of the "the Left" tend to minimize the criminal tendencies of so called revolutionaries. In Gus's view, Postman seemed more sympathetic to Adolph Eichmann, an celebrated Nazi who helped Adolf Hitler kill tens of thousand of people. In addition to possible acts of Racism, Postman also encourage readers to be mindful that words can have multiple definitions. He also suggested exploring what agendas helped fashion the words and definitions being used and how the use of these terms affects people. If this book has been useful, we should have a few extra techniques to boost our counter-racist design of language. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#
