Was Hitler a Zionist Stooge?

Perhaps no other political figure and period of history is as misunderstood as Adolf Hitler and his rise to power and reign as the Führer of National Socialist Germany.  Confused and oftentimes disingenuous conspiracy historians and alternative media personalities present a wide variety of interpretations of Adolf Hitler and National Socialist Germany, with many claiming Hitler was some sort of secret “Rothschild operative” collaborating with the Jewish international bankers as an agent of Zionist interests in the Middle East, as J. Speer Williams has recently argued.  These alternative “conspiracy industry”-type theories are as absurd and baseless as the mainstream version of Adolf Hitler and National Socialist Germany as the embodiment of evil, hell bent on conquering first Europe, then the world, exterminating all Jews, gypsies, and other scapegoated and “persecuted” groups in the process.

Williams begins his recent essay Hitler was a Zionist Stooge this way:

The International Zionists are led by a dark force with an intelligent mentality, but which is totally bereft of compassion, empathy, or basic wisdom.

But since such an intellect is unfathomable to most human minds, I know of no one who can give us all the reasons for Zionism bringing Adolf Hitler to power and then financing the German Nazi war machine. But the fact that it was done is clearly provable.

The financing of Hitler and his war powers was largely handled by the old Max/Paul Warburg controlled Mendelsohn Bank of Amsterdam (all Zionists) and the Schroeder Bank of Frankfort, London, and New York (all Zionists).

While Williams makes a good point about the nature of international Zionism as representing a “dark force” that is “totally bereft of compassion, empathy, or basic wisdom”, his sophomoric and simplistic contention, without citing any source material or documentation, that a combination of “Zionist” controlled banks in Amsterdam, London, Frankfort, and New York financed Hitler and “his war powers” (whatever that means) is without merit. Williams attempts to convince his readers that Zionist funding of Hitler and the “Nazi war machine” is “clearly provable”, yet provides no evidence whatsoever for his claims.  He simply declares it so, and expects everyone to blindly follow along. Serious scholars, journalists, and writers provide documentation – using reliable primary and secondary sources – to substantiate their claims.  Obviously, J. Speer Williams is not a serious scholar, journalist, or writer.

Hitler and the NSDAP were not, I repeat, were not funded by Jewish or even pro-Zionist sources. They were not “Rothschild agents” or “puppets of the bankers” or “stooges for the Zionists”. They were diametrically opposed to the Jewish supremacist goal of a “New World Order”, which is essentially Jewish domination and subjugation of the entire globe – politically, economically, and culturally – a Jewish Utopia so to speak. Hitler and the National Socialist political movement not only spoke openly and honestly about important subjects, clearly identifying the enemy of all humanity – international Jewry – they made serious moves against this destructive, parasitic network of criminals that had wrecked their country and sought to destroy their people. National Socialism is the anti-thesis to Jewish Communism and Jewish plutocratic capitalism, two destructive ideologies Adolf Hitler and the NSDAP clearly recognized as Jewish-inspired philosophies which result in the total destruction of every nation they are practiced in.

Indeed, Adolf Hitler and the National Socialist movement represented the greatest obstacle that has ever manifested against the parasitic, subversive, and destructive nature of the international Jewish criminal cabal largely controlling the West, pushing for their “New World Order” on every front imaginable.

As Veronica Clark explains in her must read article titled Demystification of the Birth and Funding of the NSDAP, Hitler sought to overcome the class antagonism prevalent throughout Germany (and much of Europe) by establishing a political and social order based on merit, rather than class or wealth, and sought to unify German society around their common German heritage and Aryan race.  Funding for the NSDAP came from a variety of sources, including membership fees, speaking engagements, newspaper sales, financial contributions from nationalist-minded small businesses and industrialists, and even elements of the upper classes in German society who recognized the threat of Jewish Marxist communism and wanted to see a revitalized, economically and culturally strong Germany once again.

Theodore Abel’s 1938 book, Why Hitler Came Into Power is perhaps the most important, and yet unknown, book exploring the rise of the National Socialist German Worker’s Party and Adolf Hitler. In early 1934, Abel travelled to Germany after convincing the National Socialist government that had recently come to power that Americans, and the world generally, knew far too little about the National Socialist movement, its ideology, its history and rise to power, and its followers. Abel, working under the auspices of Columbia University, proposed an autobiographical essay contest, in which any member or sympathizer of the NSDAP who had joined prior to the party solidifying its political power over the German state in 1933 could submit an essay explaining his or her background, education, experience, and political affiliations for review.

Abel eventually received 683 manuscripts from a wide variety of National Socialist party members and sympathizers, which he breaks down into age distribution, occupation, class affiliation, and date of joining the NSDAP. Statistical charts and other identifying data are broken down for further analysis as an Appendix. Abel notes that 83 manuscripts were eliminated from consideration, either because they were too short in length and lacking in any detail, or because they were submitted by women, whose entries were used for a separate study published independently of Why Hitler Came Into Power. These manuscripts form the basis for Abel’s work, and numerous excerpts are provided throughout the first two parts of the book from members of the NSDAP themselves, offering readers a unique insight into what motivated and inspired these individuals to join the party and embark on what turned out to be a life long struggle.

In 1986, Why Hitler Came Into Power was re-published with a Foreword written by Thomas Childers, who made some profound observations about Abel’s original and unique research into the NSDAP and the rise of Adolf Hitler in Germany. Childers wrote in part:

Abel’s material simply did not fit neatly into the dominate interpretation of National Socialism as a “revolt of the lower middle class.” […]

Abel was struck by the wide variety of motivational factors at work among the respondents, many of which could not be easily subsumed under the interpretive rubric of “lower-middle-class revolt.” […]

These studies have allowed us to identify the social bases of the Nazi following with far greater precision than was ever before possible. Although thematic emphasis and methods differ, these works are in fundamental agreement that support for the NSDAP extended far beyond the lower middle class to elements of the socially established Grossbürgertum (upper middle class) as well as to sizable segments of the blue-collar working class. […]

What attracted members of the upper middle class to the party? Why did many workers turn to the NSDAP? What had drawn them? What role did the NSDAP’s ideological positions play in its popular appeal? How important were Nazi propaganda tactics and organization? These are obviously important questions for any study seeking to explain the sociopolitical dynamics of Nazi success, and it is precisely this set of central issues that Theodore Abel’s work addresses. […]

Abel’s book is comprised of three distinct parts. Part One deals with the history of the NSDAP, with chapters titled The Background of the Hitler Movement, The First Period: 1919 – 1923, The Second Period: 1924 – 1929, and The Third Period: 1930 – 1933, which offer unique insights into the struggles, obstacles, and hardships endured by the NSDAP, and its eventual rise in German politics.

Part Two is analytical in nature, and explains how and why the NSDAP movement gained support. What attracted people to National Socialism? What factors lead to the rise and eventual triumph of the NSDAP in German politics? These and other related questions are addressed in these pages, and help clarify the financing and nature of the National Socialist German Workers Party, as well as its popularity and ability to largely unite all segments of the German nation. Abel breaks Part Two into three chapters: Discontent As a Factor, Ideology As a Factor, and The Why of the Hitler Movement.

Finally, Part Three of the book is comprised of six selected autobiographies of the NSDAP members, published in full. Abel publishes the life stories of a worker, an anti-Semite, a soldier, a middle-class youth, a bank clerk, and a farmer – all chosen “to show, in unified, more realistic form, patterns of National Socialist experience separately analyzed in previous chapters.”  These selected manuscripts demonstrate the widespread appeal of National Socialism, which united German nationalists and patriots from all backgrounds, social classes, and education levels. Farmers, merchants, soldiers, veterans, teachers, industrial workers, bureaucrats, professionals, managers, fathers, mothers, children – National Socialism appealed to and sought to unify all segments of the German populace, and was largely successful in doing so, especially once firmly in control of the German state.

By relying on primary source material – authentic autobiographies of NSDAP members and sympathizers – Abel offers historians and other interested parties a unique analysis of the rise of Adolf Hitler and the NSDAP not found elsewhere.

Just to further discredit this idea that Hitler and the NSDAP were funded by “the Jews”, consider the following excerpt of the legendary Michael Collins Piper’s must read book, The New Babylon: Those Who Reign Supreme – A Panoramic Overview of the Historical, Religious and Economic Origins of the New World Order:

There is also the legend that “The Jewish bankers” or “The Zionist bankers” (used often interchangeably) financed Hitler. Not true. James Pool, in his authoritative work, Who Financed Hitler?, demonstrates quite to the contrary.

In one instance, a Jewish financier in Germany did give money to the Nazi Party–prior to the rise of Adolf Hitler–but those funds were designed to help Hitler’s intra-party opposition to stop Hitler. But despite this fact, some “patriots” still say that “The Jews Backed Hitler.”

Many of those who worship at the altar of this nonsense cite a flagrantly-fraudulent document of shadowy origins entitled Hitler’s Secret Bankers, ostensibly written by one “Sidney Warburg,” one of those “Jewish bankers.” But this document, as we’ve said, is a fraud.

The late Dr. Anthony Sutton’s Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler has promoted this theory, based in part on the Warburg travesty and has given further institutionalization to this mythology–truth be damned.

American banks and corporations did work with the Hitler regime, usually a continuation of previous financial arrangements going back decades, but this was not part of any grand conspiracy to bring Hitler to power. The claim that the Bush family was integral to the rise of Hitler is another myth. Kevin Phillips–no admirer of the Bush dynasty–examines the actual circumstances surrounding the Bush-Hitler scenario in his book, American Dynasty: Aristocracy, Fortune and the Politics of Deceit in the House of Bush and puts the facts in proper perspective.

Some even go so far as to claim Hitler was in fact Jewish.  This slanderous conspiracy theory has been debunked by serious researchers and even mainstream, establishment academics, such as the British historian Ian Kershaw who wrote a bestselling biography of Adolf Hitler titled, Hitler: 1889-1936 Hubris.  In the very first chapter Fantasy and Failure, Kershaw thoroughly debunks the false rumor that Hitler himself may have had Jewish ancestry (pg. 7-9):

… [Allegedly] Adolf Hitler’s grandfather was Jewish. Rumours to that effect circulated in Munich cafes in the early 1920s, and were fostered by sensationalist journalism of the foreign press during the 1930s. It was suggested that the name ‘Huttler’ was Jewish, ‘revealed’ that he could be traced to a Jewish family called Hitler in Bucharest, and even claimed that his father had been sired by Baron Rothschild, in whose house in Vienna his grandmother had allegedly spent some time as a servant. But the most serious speculation about Hitler’s supposed Jewish background has occurred since the Second World War, and is directly traceable to the memoirs of the leading Nazi lawyer Governor General of Poland, Hans Frank, dictated in his Nuremberg cell while awaiting hangman.

Frank claimed that he had been called in by Hitler towards the end of 1930 and shown a letter from his nephew William Patrick Hitler (the son of his half-brother Alois, who had been briefly married to an Irish woman) threatening, in connection with the press stories circulating about Hitler’s background, to expose the fact that Hitler had Jewish blood flowing in his veins. […]

Frank’s story gained wide circulation in the 1950s. But it simply does not stand up. […] Hans Frank’s memoirs, dictated at a time when he was waiting for the hangman and plainly undergoing psychological crisis, are full of inaccuracies and have to be used with caution. With regard to the story of Hitler’s alleged Jewish grandfather, they are valueless.

Back to Williams’ piece, Hitler was a Zionist Stooge.  After claiming that international Jewish bankers in London, Amsterdam, Frankfort and New York financed Hitler and “his war powers” without citing a single source or elaborating on the details of this alleged funding, he goes on to claim that the German chemical giant I.G. Farben was under Zionist control, also implying that this industrial conglomerate was working directly with the Hitler government.  Williams mentions that I.G. Farben produced Zyklon B gas used in “Nazi concentration camps” without mentioning that Zyklon B was actually used for health and sanitary reasons, not in some evil plan to systematically murder the Jews and others detained by the German government.  Of course, there are no citations to demonstrate that I.G. Farben was indeed under Zionist control or working with the National Socialist government in any nefarious way.

Williams then makes claims I’ve heard before and read on the internet, almost always without a reliable source to back them up – that the Allies deliberately avoided bombing I.G. Farben industrial facilities located in Germany and German-occupied territories.  From the article:

During the massive fire bombing of almost all of Germany and many of its innocent citizens, the Farben facilities were carefully spared. One used to be able to go onto the Internet and see aerial photographs of the I.G. Farben plants left whole, while everything else around them had been bombed into ruins.

Again, no citation to back up these contentions.  A simple search on Wikipedia for I.G. Farben has this to say:

Facilities during World War II

IG Farben facilities were bombing targets of the Oil Campaign of World War II, and up to 1941, there were 5 Nazi Germany Buna plants that produced Buna N by the Lebedev process.

Dwory

The Buna Chemical Plant at Dwory was under construction by 1943, after a March 2, 1942 contract with “IG Farbenindustrie AG Auschwitz.” The Buna Werke plant, which produced synthetic oil and rubber (from coal), was the beginning of SS activity and camps near Auschwitz III-Monowitz during the Holocaust. At its peak in 1944, this factory made use of 83,000 slave laborers. Today, the plant operates as “Dwory S.A.”

Frankfurt

In addition to the “cavernous” IG Farben building at Frankfurt, a Hoechst AG chemical factory in Frankfurt was bombed by the RAF on September 26, 1944.

Where does Williams, and those who continue to make these claims about I.G. Farben, get their information?  Inquiring minds would like to know.  What sources document that I.G. Farben was controlled by “Zionist bankers” working with Hitler, and that its industrial facilities were spared from Allied firebombing campaigns?

If Hitler and the NSDAP were “Zionist stooges”, why on earth did they do things like this or this or this? Why did they make movies like The Eternal Jew, exposing the enemies of the German race to their fellow kinsmen? Consider Adolf Hitler’s political testament he dictated shortly before he committed suicide in Berlin in April 1945. Does this man sound like a “Zionist stooge” to you?

More than thirty years have passed since 1914 when I made my modest contribution as a volunteer in the First World War, which was forced upon the Reich.

In these three decades love and loyalty to my people have guided all my thoughts, actions and my life. They gave me the strength to make the most difficult decisions ever to confront mortal man. In these three decades I have spent my strength and my health.

It is untrue that I or anyone else in Germany wanted war in 1939. It was wanted and provoked solely by international statesmen either of Jewish origin or working for Jewish interests. I have made too many offers for the limitation and control of armaments, which posterity will not be cowardly enough always to disregard, for responsibility for the outbreak of this war to be placed on me. Nor have I ever wished that, after the appalling First World War, there would ever be a second against either England or America. Centuries will go by, but from the ruins of our towns and monuments the hatred of those ultimately responsible will always grow anew against the people whom we have to thank for all this: international Jewry and its henchmen. […]

If Hitler was somehow “in cahoots with the Jews”, why did he say things like this all throughout Mein Kampf and in the various speeches he gave?

The Jews have not the ability which is necessary for the founding of a civilization, for in them there is not, and never has been, that spirit of idealism which is an absolutely necessary element in the higher development of mankind. Therefore, the Jewish intellect will never be constructive, but always destructive. (Chapter XI, pg. 209)

Another claim often made by individuals in Williams’ camp is that somehow Adolf Hitler is the “founder of Israel”, which is an absurd and extremely ignorant claim for a variety of reasons.

It was Britain, through the Balfour Declaration, addressed to none other than Lord Rothschild himself, that initially facilitated the establishment of the illegitimate terrorist state of “Israel”, not Germany. Germany never supported or wanted a Jewish state in Palestine. Hitler and NSDAP policy were primarily concerned with getting the Jews out of Germany (and eventually all of Europe), and did in fact collaborate with Zionist organizations and factions that promoted Jewish emigration to Palestine and the West. They even entered into economic agreements with these organizations to not only facilitate the emigration of Jews from Germany, but also bolster Germans exports. Some German Jews ended up moving to Palestine, many more went to London, Paris, New York, and Hollywood, where with their fellow Jews already in the West they would begin their genetically inspired systematic assault on and subversion of Western culture.

Mark Weber of the Institute for Historical Review lays this out quite clearly in an article titled Zionism and the Third Reich:

[…] German support for Zionism was not unlimited. Government and Party officials were very mindful of the continuing campaign by powerful Jewish communities in the United States, Britain and other countries to mobilize “their” governments and fellow citizens against Germany. As long as world Jewry remained implacably hostile toward National Socialist Germany, and as long as the great majority of Jews around the world showed little eagerness to resettle in the Zionist “promised land,” a sovereign Jewish state in Palestine would not really “solve” the international Jewish question. Instead, German officials reasoned, it would immeasurably strengthen this dangerous anti-German campaign. German backing for Zionism was therefore limited to support for a Jewish homeland in Palestine under British control, not a sovereign Jewish state.

A Jewish state in Palestine, the Foreign Minister informed diplomats in June 1937, would not be in Germany’s interest because it would not be able to absorb all Jews around the world, but would only serve as an additional power base for international Jewry, in much the same way as Moscow served as a base for international Communism. Reflecting something of a shift in official policy, the German press expressed much greater sympathy in 1937 for Palestinian Arab resistance to Zionist ambitions, at a time when tension and conflict between Jews and Arabs in Palestine was sharply increasing.

A Foreign Office circular bulletin of June 22, 1937, cautioned that in spite of support for Jewish settlement in Palestine, “it would nevertheless be a mistake to assume that Germany supports the formation of a state structure in Palestine under some form of Jewish control. In view of the anti-German agitation of international Jewry, Germany cannot agree that the formation of a Palestine Jewish state would help the peaceful development of the nations of the world.” “The proclamation of a Jewish state or a Jewish-administrated Palestine,” warned an internal memorandum by the Jewish affairs section of the SS, “would create for Germany a new enemy, one that would have a deep influence on developments in the Near East.” Another SS agency predicted that a Jewish state “would work to bring special minority protection to Jews in every country, therefore giving legal protection to the exploitation activity of world Jewry.” In January 1939, Hitler’s new Foreign Minister, Joachim von Ribbentrop, likewise warned in another circular bulletin that “Germany must regard the formation of a Jewish state as dangerous” because it “would bring an international increase in power to world Jewry.

Hitler and the NSDAP did not advocate for or support an independent Jewish state in Palestine. In fact, in Mein Kampf Hitler accurately described what a Jewish state would look like should the Gentile world allow it to happen:

The Jew’s domination in the state seems so assured that now not only can he call himself a Jew again, but he ruthlessly admits his ultimate national and political designs. A section of his race openly owns itself to be a foreign people, yet even here they lie. For while the Zionists try to make the rest of the world believe that the national consciousness of the Jew finds its satisfaction in the creation of a Palestinian state, the Jews again slyly dupe the dumb Goyim. It doesn’t even enter their heads to build up a Jewish state in Palestine for the purpose of living there; all they want is a central organization for their international world swindle, endowed with its own sovereign rights and removed from the intervention of other states: a haven for convicted scoundrels and a university for budding crooks.

Bottom line is, the Jews were dead set on establishing their criminal, usurping state in Palestine, not only to fulfill their twisted messianic prophecies, but also to gain a safe haven and central headquarters for their global crime syndicate, a fact Hitler recognized. He wanted the Jews out of Germany in order to rebuild German society after the devastation of WWI, correctly recognizing the subversive and destructive nature innate to the Jewish race. The Jews in Palestine perfected their use of terrorism and underhandedness and declared “independence” shortly after Germany’s defeat in WWII, using their fake “Holocaust” story and agents of influence across the globe to sell their false narrative of history to the rest of the world. And who were the first governments to recognize the illegitimate, terrorist state of “Israel”? Two of the countries most responsible for the genocidal annihilation of Hitler’s Germany, which was resisting the forces of international Jewry, not collaborating with them: the United States and Soviet Union.

On May 14, 1948, the leaders of the Jewish organizations in Palestine, headed by David Ben-Gurion,proclaimed the establishment of the State of Israel, to take effect at midnight that night.

At that point, the State of Israel came into existence. The United States recognized the provisional Jewish government as de facto authority of the Jewish state within minutes. The Soviet Union granted de jure recognition almost immediately in 1948 along with seven other states within the next five days (Guatemala, Byelorussia, the Ukraine, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Uruguay, and Yugoslavia).

Hitler and National Socialist Germany’s ultimate aim was the removal of the Jews from Germany and Europe, and they collaborated with the Zionist movement to accomplish this goal. After the Jews and their puppet Allies brutally destroyed Germany in WWII, which represented the greatest threat in recent history to the global Jewish crime network behind “The New World Order”, it was only a matter of time before “Israel” would be officially established.

Hitler was not “the founder of Israel” and in no way supported the establishment of an independent Jewish state in Palestine as many continue to claim. Hitler and National Socialist Germany were destroyed to pave the way for the establishment of Israel. Blaming Hitler and National Socialist Germany for something the Jews were determined to do on their own – with the assistance of their puppets in the West – is a gross distortion of history.

To conclude his ridiculous and unscholarly essay Hitler was a Zionist Stooge, J. Speer Williams claims that there are “deeper reasons” underlying why the Zionists brought Hitler to power, and that ultimately the end goal of the Zionist conspiracy is to “mutate and ultimately exterminate” the Semitic gene, which according to Williams included both Jews and Arabs.  In the very next sentence, however, Williams admits that he can’t even prove his point:

But, again, I cannot prove any of that, except for the fact of depleting uranium being used in the Zionist Middle Eastern wars of US/Israeli aggression.

The only thing that can be demonstrably proven is that J. Speer Williams simply does not know what he is talking about, and is perpetuating myths and slanders about Adolf Hitler and National Socialist Germany, albeit of a different nature than the lies endlessly promoted by the mainstream mass media and educational establishment.  J. Speer Williams and other disingenuous and ignorant individuals confusing the public with ridiculous and baseless theories that “Hitler was a Zionist stooge” are essentially doing the bidding of the Jews who have demonized and distorted the actions, legacy, and worldview of Adolf Hitler and National Socialism for so long.  Please do not take these people seriously.
