Alfred Hitchcock's unseen Holocaust documentary to be screened

It's a little known fact that the great director made a film about the Nazi death camps – but, horrified by the footage he saw, the documentary was never shown. Now it is to be released.
Never forget Kurt Hofmann's variant of Edmund Burke: "Remember: Evil exists because good men don't kill the government officials committing it."

When and where? Will this be released for public viewing on, say, a PBS station? (Yeah, right, as if. . . )

One of the comments on the site says Hitler was a "right wing" guy. Love how the left is still using that as a way to defame the right, when of course Hitler was of the left as much as Stalin.

Interesting timing.

From the original article:

The restored version of the concentration camp film, retrospectively titled 'Memory of the Camps', will be released later this year...

The IDIOTS in DC and numerous states want to ban firearm ownership by the citizens. They don't understand what DID HAPPEN and might happen again if we allow the gun grabbers to have their way. Maybe it's time for more of the classes on how to make your own weapons (unregistered and unnumbered) in case history repeats itself under Obamunism.

Watch the 2001 HBO movie "Conspiracy" about the Wannsee Conference, where they discussed The Final Solution.

In that film is a little toad of a man who is the "Minister of the four-year plan" and keeps referring to himself as such.

Sad to say... With maybe the exception of a few history-literate people who know of Eichmann who attended that conference, almost all of those evil men are unknown to the general public.

Most people can't even spell "Sturmbannführer" (or even pronounce it...) let alone know the answer to the question: "Do you know of SS-Sturmbannführer Dr. Rudolf Lange, or Dr. Alfred Meyer and their role in the worst government-approved mass murder in human history?"

From the Independent article: The film took far longer than expected to make. By late 1945 the need for it began to wane.

How To Survive a Survival*

Ernest Landau, relating events after his concentration camp train was
intercepted by a Swiss Red Cross patrol in May 1945:

The Swiss went off: I went back to the group and informed them that the Americans would be here the next day and that we would probably get food from the Wehrmacht camp in Possnhoffen. Meanwhile, however, interest had shifted to another group on the other side of the train. ... [who] wanted something quite differnt. They pushed one of the SS men down, taken his weapon and killed him. Not with a bullet but with a bayonet. His own bayonet. This SS man was a horrible guy. I said before that at
this point in time, the Ss were mild but he was the exception. So he didn't live to see our liberation., And this single weapon was enough to disarm the whole SS [contingent there]. [One man] held it in his hand and everyone could see he wasn't joking. He called out to the SS men "I'll shoot you even if I get killed, if one of you takes out his weapon." And that helped. Suddenly [these boys] were holding all the
SS weapons. The SS men were rounded up and locked in a car.

Not quite a holocaust, but an interesting story about a man who enslaved millions of idiots (*cough*TomCruise*cough*)in my lifetime:

"Innocents Betrayed" by the JPFO discusses the general and specific themes of civiliam disarmament laying the groundwork for genocide.

In this powerful documentary produced by Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership, you will learn how governments have historically deprived people of firearms ... and then wiped them from the face of the earth.

Thank you, Fed up, for the link. I had heard of Jamie, but not his link to L Ron. Very interesting.
