Kerry headquarters in Norfolk Vandalized!

[VTMechEngr]

Vandals spray painted the slogans "Bush 2004" and "4 more years" on the wall next to the parking lot. I noticed it last night when picking up Kerry signs.

I haven't seen it in the local media.

Add Norfolk to the growing list of vandalized headquarters. So when are the Republicans planning their Kristallnacht?

1. THAT'S why they vandalized their own. So they could do this.

And still claim to be victims.

2. Kristallnacht?

That was 9-11, they use like aquart said self vandalizing (abuse) to get their vote. Remember Nazi Germany said that Poland attack them, just like bush and the WMDs lies so we attack them.

3. HUH?

The night of broken glass was the night that brownshirts went out and vandalized thousands of Jewish businesses and homes. Nothing to do with poland. That was the Danzig BS that the German Media Kept spouting.

Remember, Danzig was surrounded by poland. Hitler claimed the poles were going to attack it.

4. stand corrected

The Richstead fire- 911
the attack by Poland (according to Nazi media)- US attacks Iraq on WMD


Kristallnacht , Zindel Grynszpan and his family were forced out of their home by German police. His store and the family's possessions were confiscated and they were forced to move over the Polish border. Zindel Grynszpan's seventeen-year-old son, Herschel, was living with an uncle in Paris. When he received news of his family's expulsion, he went to the German embassy in Paris on November 7, intending to assassinate the German Ambassador to France. Upon discovering that the Ambassador was not in the embassy, he settled for a lesser official, Third Secretary Ernst vom Rath. Rath, was critically wounded and died two days later, on November 9.

The assassination provided Goebbels, Hitler's Chief of Propaganda, with the excuse he needed to launch a pogrom against German Jews. Grynszpan's attack was interpreted by Goebbels as a conspiratorial attack by "International Jewry" against the Reich and, symbolically, against the Fuehrer himself. This pogrom has come to be called Kristallnacht, "the Night of Broken Glass."

So we have to wait for this scenario before we have ours

5. And this was the standard reference:

On the nights of November 9 and 10, gangs of Nazi youth roamed through Jewish neighborhoods breaking windows of Jewish businesses and homes, burning synagogues and looting. In all 101 synagogues were destroyed and almost 7,500 Jewish businesses were destroyed. 26,000 Jews were arrested and sent to concentration camps, Jews were physically attacked and beaten and 91 died (Snyder, Louis L. Encyclopedia of the Third Reich. New York: Paragon House, 1989:201).

6. agreed

but in order to have the masses to do this you need an incident and that was the incident.

"the excuse he needed to launch a pogrom against German Jews."

So really what we are saying is what will be their excuse or incident in the coming time? I do see one coming but where and it will be big?
The news is getting nastier with the right wing.

I forgot to mention the consolidation of the media after Hitler's election as something that happened here also.
