Hitler prayed!

[Flanders]

The question is: What was Hitler praying for? I’d have to answer he prayed for gun control laws:

. . . all of America’s present gun-control laws have Nazi origins, evidenced by the group’s shocking accusation that the Gun Control Act of 1968 was plagiarized almost word for word from Nazi legislation. The German Weapons Law, which existed before the Nazis came to power in 1933, was amended on March 18, 1938, by the Nazi government. The JPFO’s claim is based in part by the fact that the 1968 law introduces the “sporting purpose” test to distinguish different types of weapons, similar to the “sporting purpose” test that existed in the German law in question. Sen. Thomas Joseph Dodd (father to Sen. Chris Dodd) was a prosecutor at the Nuremberg Trials and had reviewed copies of the Nazi firearms law as the 1968 legislation was being drafted.

To waltky: Interesting interpretation.

The Holy Roman Empire was the First Reich. It lasted from 962 until 1806 —— 844 years.

The Second Reich lasted from 1871 until 1918 —— 47 years

The Third Reich lasted from 1933 until 1945 —— 12 years

Hitler hoped to establish a thousand year Reich. Whether or not he wanted another H.R.E. is debatable.

The First Reich was the muscle for the Roman Catholic Church. I doubt if Hitler saw his Germany in that role. And he had no use for the Junkers —— an honorable landed/military ruling class he blamed for losing WWI. In Hitler’s eyes the Junkers were the natural descendants and the last remnants of the H.R.E.

On the other side of the coin, anti-Roman Catholicism in the US had a lot to do with America siding with Great Britain against Germany in two wars. I’m pretty sure Hitler was aware of America’s religious bias before WWII. That makes his biggest mistake —— declaring war on the US after Japan bombed Pearl Harbor —— all the more puzzling. Hitler certainly understood the anti-Roman Catholicism that influenced Woodrow Wilson in WWI.

One unintended consequence of America’s anti-Roman Catholicism was that Germany’s defeat prolonged the life of Soviet communism; indeed, communism is still haunting America and the world.

Finally, Pat Buchanan’s great book demolishes the myth of Germany’s love of militarism:
