Leaflets of The Resistance Movement in Germany. A Call to All Germans! The war is approaching its destined end. As in the year 1918, the German government is trying to focus attention exclusively on the growing threat of submarine warfare, while in the East the armies are constantly in retreat and invasion in imminent in the West. Mobiliation in the United States has not yet reached its climax, but already it exceeds anything that the world has ever seen. It has become a mathematical certainty that Hitler is leading the German people into the abyss. Hitler cannot win the war; he can only prolong it. The guilt of Hitler and his minions goes beyond all measure. Retribution comes closer and closer. But what are the German people doing? They will not see and will not listen. Blindly they follow their seducers into ruin. Victory at any price! is inscribed on their banner. "I will fight to the last man," says Hitler-but in the meantime the war has already been lost. Germans! Do you and your children want to suffer the same fate that befell the Jews? Do you want to be judged by the same standards are your seducers? Are we to be forever a nation which is hated and rejected by all mankind? No. Dissociate yourselves from National Socialist gangsterism. Prove by your deeds that you think otherwise. A new war of liberation is about to begin. The better part of the nation will fight on our side. Cast off the cloak of indifference you have wrapped around you. Make the decision before it is too late. Do not believe the National Socialist propoganda which has driven the fear of Bolshevism into your bones. Do not believe that Germany's welfare is linked to the victory of national Socialism for good or ill. A criminal regime cannot achieve a German victory. Separate yourselves in time from everything connected with National Socialism. In the aftermath a terrible but just judgment will be meted out to those who stayed in hiding, who were cowardly and hesitant. What can we learn from the outcome of this war-this war that never was a national war? The imperialist ideology of force, from whatever side it comes, must be shattered for all time. A one sided Prussian militarism must never again be allowed to assume power. Only in large-scale cooperation among the nations of Europe can the ground be prepared for reconstruction. Centralized hegemony, such as the Prussian state has tried to excercise in Germany and in Europe, must be cut down at its inception. The Germany of the future must be a federal state. At this juncture only a sound federal system can inbue a weakened Europe with a new life. The workers must be liberated from their condition of down trodden slavery under National Socialism. The illusory structure of autonomous national industry must disappear. Every nation and each man have a right to the goods of the whole world! Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, the protection of individual citizens from the abritrary will of criminal regimes of violence-these will be the bases of the New Europe.

Support the resistance, distribute the leaflets!

Whoever performed brain surgery on you, did a terrible job.

Germany was, and is, a great nation thanks to the jews, gypsies, turks, communists, socialists, and to all the good Germans like the ones of the Weisse Rose.

By the dignity and courage Sophie Scholl and her friends showed right up to their death, they achieved something most here understand, though obvisously not you. The fact that dignity and courage to fight evil is extremely dangerous under a dictatorship is no reason for not to strive for such qualities.

How many Germans and people from other nations "got fucked up" during this period by NOT displaying dignity and courage??????

came across white rose here for first time. was looking at Bonhoeffer originally.An individual's response to Nazism tells a lot about the character of the person.I can only hope I would have reacted in similar fashion to those who opposed this evil.

@Cheerok that was some intelligent move you grandpa did! :)

[Cheerok]

@sjmunoz And every single one of them who did it while being a part of the system like my grandfather who was a front mechanic (cross between infantry and mechanic). He sabotaged artillery guns who where supposed to shoot innocent villages for not feeding the nazi troops when they passed through.

Just an example, there were many great people during this dark hour of planet earth !

Complimenti per il bel video.

Dovrebbe essere visto da milioni di persone..soprattutto giovani,perchè imparino cos'è il vero eroismo.

Mi dispiace che anche quì ci siano 7 idioti che non hanno capìto l'eroismo di questi studenti di Monaco.

Onore ai ragazzi tedeschi.

You make a good point. I still consider her superior to all the lackeys who sat buy and aided the Nazis or did nothing. But your right in that they should have been smarter in undermining the Nazi state.

@lauxsd123

Bullshit "true heroine" they foolishly endangered the lives of everyone who ever picked one of their pamphlets up off the street, getting caught with that shit meant the concentration camp and they accomplished nothing, they printed some crappy pamphlets over a 4 month period and tossed them on the ground so anyone who innocently picked one up could go to jail. Buncha assholes. Anyone who knew them or could be associated whith them after they were caught got fucked up.
