The World is Waiting

Why has the Vatican as yet not opined on the death of the musician known as "Prince"?  

A Vatican spokesman, Cardinal Bogus Smirk, commented, "Pope Polypistes is too busy being unjudgmental about the Rev. Affable Fondleguys to deal with this yet. But he wishes to express the Church's sense of loss at the passing of this cultural icon."

Mission Accomplished

There will be Communion for those living in sin? It would seem so.

So in his Apostolic Exhortation, a tedious, windbagging, ambiguous, logorrhoeic blather, his Bergogliousness has put possibly millions of Catholics, and certainly me, in the ridiculous position of saying, or just thinking, "If the Pope is a Catholic, then I am not."

But I am!

A German Green Party Intellectual (please excuse the oxymoron) Opines

Brilliant analysis!

According to this Green Party politician, who is also one of the vice-presidents of the German parliament, the sexual assaults committed by "migrants" on women in Cologne may be seen as their reaction to their feeling that they were being sexually marginalised by German women.

So remember, ladies, that if you do not want to be sexually assaulted by any group of men, you must make it clear that you sexually accept them, and do not sexually marginalise them.

Got that?

Good.

Arnold Strippel torturer and murderer of Children, who died a free and wealthy man in West Germany

Arnold Strippel (2 June 1911 – 1 May 1994) was an SS-Obersturmführer and a member of the SS-Totenkopfverbände who while assigned to the Neuengamme concentration camp was given the task of murdering the victims of a tuberculosis medical experiment conducted by Kurt Heissmeyer.

Strippel served in various concentration camps starting in 1934 when he joined the SS. His first assignment was at Sachsenburg, his next was Buchenwald, where he participated in the shooting of 21 Jewish inmates on November 9, 1939, following the failed assassination attempt on Adolf Hitler in Munich. While at Buchenwald, Strippel caught an inmate who was using a rope and some paper to alleviate heavy loads he was carrying on his work detail. This was against camp regulations (stealing Third Reich property), so Strippel decided to make an example out of him. "You used this rope; you'll hang on a rope. And the whole camp will watch as you twist in the wind." The inmate's hands were tied behind his back and he was lifted two feet off the ground from a tree. The weight of his body was all on the shoulder joints and the pain was "excruciating beyond all description."

Strippel's next assignment from March – October 1941 was the Natzweiler-Struthof concentration camp in Occupied France. Strippel then served in Majdanek near Lublin Poland, Ravensbrück, then at Peenemünde on the Usedom peninsula, in the Karlshagen II forced labor camp, the site of V-2 rocket production and launches. From there the 's-Hertogenbosch concentration camp in Vught, the Netherlands, more commonly known as Camp Vught. His final assignment was at Neuengamme, where he would oversee the murders of the twenty Jewish children involved in Kurt Heissmeyer's experiments, their four adult caretakers and twenty-four Soviet P.O.W.'s. They were all hanged in the basement of the Bullenhuser Damm school, the adults from overhead pipes and the children from a hook on the wall.

Strippel was convicted of war crimes at the Third Majdanek Trial before the West German Court in Düsseldorf (1975–1981) for his actions at Buchenwald and at the Majdanek concentration camp, Poland, where he served as deputy commandant (Case no. 145 & 616 in Frankfurt District Court). He was implicated in the torture and killing of many dozens of prisoners including 42 Soviet POWs in July 1942. Strippel received a nominal three-and-a-half year sentence. He also received 121,500 Deutsche Mark reimbursement for the loss of earnings and his social security contributions, which made him a wealthy man. He used this windfall to purchase a condominium in Frankfurt, which he occupied until his death.

Lest We Forget - Reinefarth the Butcher of Warsaw Honoured by Postwar Germany

DO NOT FORGET

In two days in August 1944, the units of Reinefarth and SS-Oberführer Oskar Dirlewanger executed approximately 60,000 civilian inhabitants of Warsaw in what is now known as the Wola Massacre. In one of his reports to the commander of the German 9th Army Reinefarth stated that "we have more prisoners than ammunition to kill them".[1] After securing the Wola area, his troops took part in heavy fighting against the Armia Krajowa in the Old Town. 

In September, his forces were transferred to attack the boroughs of Powiśle and Czerniaków, where they committed further atrocities, including killing of POWs and wounded found in military hospitals. In all 150,000–200,000 Polish civilians were killed during the uprising. For his actions during the Warsaw Uprising Reinefarth was awarded the Oak Leaves to his Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross on September 30, 1944. After World War II, the Polish authorities demanded his extradition. However, the British and American authorities of occupied Germany decided that Reinefarth could be useful as a witness at the Nuremberg Trial. After the trials, he was arrested for war crimes, but the local court in Hamburg released him shortly afterwards on the grounds of purported lack of evidence. West Germany ruled that depositions were not sufficient to secure his conviction, and also, that genocide was not in the criminal code of Nazi Germany and therefore, would not be applied retroactively.

Reinefarth went on to live a normal life similar to other war criminals and Holocaust perpetrators living in West Germany including SS-Obersturmführer Arnold Strippel from Majdanek concentration camp, and Oberscharführer Fiedler from Chełmno extermination camp. In December 1951, he was elected Mayor of the town of Westerland, the main town on the island of Sylt. In 1962, he was elected to the parliament (Landtag) of Schleswig-Holstein. After his term ended in 1967, he worked as a lawyer. Despite numerous demands by Poland, he was not extradited. Since the German courts had ruled that there was no evidence of him committing any crimes, he was considered not guilty in the eyes of the law and the federal government. He received a General's pension upon retirement. He died on 7 May 1979 in his mansion on Sylt.
