There is no advertising with criminals.

As long as this Nazi party SVP is existing Switzerland should be consequently excluded and boycotted because one cannot live in peace in this Nazi state of Switzerland.

Wise members of SVP can change to the party of BDP reducing this eternal SVP racism.

Part 4: Austria's accession to the EU in 1994, Jewish bank accounts since 1995, a "clarification" with many lies in 1997

Austria's accession to the EU on June 12, 1994

Austria was in an euphoria discussing their seats in the EU parliament although this parliament is more or less only a gossip chamber without rights. Austria was discussing seats in EU commissions and participation in Brussels. In these times there was no eastward enlargement but it was known that there were mafia structures in southern Europe systematically gambling EU funds away. The posters in Austria partly conceal any doubt, but there were also warning voices provoking 33.4% votes with No. Socialist part SPÖ was telling the population the lie that only in the EU one would be a good "European". The slogan was "Yes to Europe" suggesting that when one would vote against an accession to the EU then one would vote like a "No to Europe". This is WRONG: A No to the EU had saved Austria from the giant mess in which EU is today (Estate 2013). EEA had absolutely been enough. But the dreamers also had the EURO in project which should be introduced within some years, with even more euphoria...

Austria had a foreign policy often connected with Switzerland presenting claims in a "duo" presenting problems and questions about the Alps to Brussels. This common duo policy finished now when Austria would be in the EU. There were even political parties in Austria making propaganda for the "Swiss model", or they were conjuring a "transit hell" with lorries without end passing the Alps on the way from Germany to Italy, or they meant that Germany would dominate Austria and would "swallow Austria".

1994: posters in Austria concerning the vote about EU claiming for an accession to the EU
Poster of Socialist SPÖ for an accession to the EU "Yes to Europe" (Ja zu Europa) [1]	Poster of Socialist SPÖ for an accession to the EU "Yes to Europe" (Ja zu Europa) indicating chances for youth, environment protection without border lines, voting rights in Brussels [2]	Poster of Socialist SPÖ for an accession to the EU "Yes to Europe" (Ja zu Europa) indicating more safety, more export, more jobs, more cheap and more varied shopping  [3]	Poster of "Christian" Popular SPÖ for an accession to the EU indicating: We are Europeans. Austrians we remain (Wir sind Europäer. Österreicher bleiben wir). [4]
Well, security and export chances also had been in EEA. But the dreamers had the perspective getting the EURO. What could be read here? -- chances for youth? There were also chances in an EEA without problems -- environment protection without border lines? could also be organized in EEA, and CO2 as a cause for climate change is a lie -- vote and weight for Austria with voting rights in Brussels? "European Parliament" is a gossip chamber and the commissions are in the hand of lobbyists -- more safety? This was an absolute lie because open borders would mean less safety but above all after the introduction of mafia EURO there would be no safety at all any more -- more chances for the export and new jobs? This would also be with EEA without problem -- more varied shopping? This was the hope that with a unity currency all goods would be cheaper. But this was WRONG. After the introduction of EURO all prices were leveled UPWARDS -- "we are Europeans"? But without EU one remains also European. Considering this data base it's principally absolutely perverse how the European states could be member of mafia EU although it was really known that mafia is dominating the EU. The governments themselves are partly mafia members and concealed this to the population. In Switzerland for example mafia was always mentioned in the private talk because principally only Germany was the big net contributor and the mafia countries of southern Europe got the whole money...
1994: Austrian posters concerning the vote about the accession to the EU against a membership with EU Poster of Green Party against accession to the EU of Austria: "Not in this way" ("So nicht") [5] Poster of Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) of Haider against EU membership of Austria: criminality without limits [6] Poster of Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) of Haider against EU membership of Austria: transit hell, yes to the Swiss model [7] Poster of Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) against an EU membership: "Austria first" [8] Green Party claimed "We read this treaty! EU, not in this way!" ("Wir haben den Vertrag gelesen! EU, so nicht!") and thus the Green Party claimed indirectly that many  Austrian politicians did not read the treaty at all and would betray their country to the German lead EU. It is a surprise that instead of many environment protection activities of EU the Austrian Green Party concluded a rejecting position to this EU. Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) of Dr. Jörg Haider came to a clear No concerning a EU membership -- because criminality without limits could be expected -- because a transit hell with lorries without limits between Germany and Italy passing Austria at Brenner Pass could be expected. Haider claimed the Swiss model of resistance against this EU which would be a dictatorship eliminating the nation's independence at the end. Poster of Communist Party of Austria (KPÖ) against EU indicating that good jobs will only be for elected people [9] Poster of Communist Party of Austria (KPÖ) against EU indicating that neutrality will be lost and Germany will swallow Austria [10] Poster of Communist Party of Austria (KPÖ) against EU indicating that this EU will only be exploitation at the end [11] Communist Party of Austria spoke about the classical topics hindering an accession to the EU (by the way Communist Party was writing EC yet): -- "Super job with an accession to the EC? But only few elected people will be lucky and 100,000s will be unemployed" (orig. German: "Super-Job durch EG-Beitritt? Das Glück trifft nur wenige, und Hunderttausende sind arbeitslos") -- "Safety by an accession to the EC? Neutrality will be lost. And Germany will swallow us again." (orig. German: "Sicherheit durch EG-Beitritt? Die Neutralität bleibt auf der Strecke. Und Deutschland schluckt uns wieder") -- "No to an exploitation by EU! No to EU" (orig. German: "Nein zur AusbEUtung! Nein zur EU") indicating a drawing of a giant fish swallowing a little fish. All in all Austria has luck in the EU because it is a little country and has not to pay much for the community. In 2011 a EU Exit Party was found with the aim to have stable conditions as they had been before the accession to the EU. Austria, logo of EU Exit Party [12] http://www.euaustrittspartei.at The promises made before the accession to the EU were all not kept, and the situation is worse than before: http://www.euaustrittspartei.at/eu-nein-danke/ There are even new books in Austria prescribing an Austrian exit from EU.

Then the people's vote was a majority for an accession to the EU:
<Voter turnout: 82.5%
Yes: 66.6% - No: 33.4%
Vienna was in the national average. In Burgenland the consent was the highest with 75%. Burgenland was lured because it is a border region to Hungary and much funds from EU were hold out. In Tirol the consent was the lowest with 57%. The population of Tirol was fearing a sellout to Germans.>

(orig. German:
<Wahlbeteiligung: 82,5% JA: 66,6% NEIN: 33,4%
Abstimmungsergebnis: 66% der Bevölkerung stimmt für den EU Beitritt Österreichs.
Wien lag im Bundestrend. Im Burgenland war die Zustimmung am höchsten mit 75%. Burgenland wurden als Grenzland besonders viele EU Förderungen in Aussicht gestellt. In Tirol war die Zustimmung mit 57% am geringsten. Die Tiroler fürchteten einen Ausverkauf Tirols an Deutsche.>

Trychel parade of SVP against an accession to the EU in Zurich, September 23, 1995 [13]

Austrians were member of the bankrupt EU community now. The main danger, mafia, was never mentioned as it seems, or certain politicians were also mafia members themselves as it is also the case in Switzerland. The dreamers had the vision as it seems that the mafia in southern Europe would change their behavior and would also work for Europe at the end when EURO was introduced...

For Switzerland this accession of Austria to the EU was a tactical worsening to Brussels because all claims for the Alps had no dual force any more concerning the transit between Germany and Italy. The members of Swiss government were isolated completely now. As a "prevention" AUNS was countering the mood in Switzerland with counter demonstrations with the traditional trychel parades for "free Switzerland", also when the facts of foreign commerce proved that nobody was "free" there. But just Swiss Franc was an argument enough for the existence of AUNS.
http://www.20min.ch/schweiz/news/story/17995267, photo 8

Socialist Party of Switzerland and Free Democrats of Switzerland wanted also an accession to the EU now. Thus a popular vote "Yes to Europe" was prepared by them. But who was "European" precisely? The ones who remained independent or the ones who went to an EU where mafia was ripping Central Europe off all funds provoking bankruptcy?


1997: Jewish bank accounts in Switzerland and reprocessing of Swiss history - senator D'Amato from the "U.S.A."

In 1996 a big scandal began in Switzerland about Jewish bank accounts in Switzerland with "U.S." senator D'Amato. The AUNS society was giving counter meetings, but could not work much against him.
http://www.20min.ch/schweiz/news/story/17995267, photo 9

"American" senator D'Amato was working together with representatives of Zionist Jewish World Congress (JWC). D'Amato had new documents in his hands and began an action against Swiss banks with the clear list of Jewish accounts where Jews had not come back but the fortunes had "disappeared" respectively Swiss banksters and lawyers had robbed these funds after 1945 for themselves. D'Amato and the representatives of JWC were organizing now some different class actions against Swiss banks, and whole Switzerland was in a trouble with it.


D'Amato, portrait [14]

Well, for the young generation in Switzerland it was very interesting to hear about the collaboration of Switzerland with the Third Reich from 1933 to 1945 because Swiss schools never mentioned anything in their school books:
-- there was a Jewish stamp since 1938 under Rothmund, boss of Swiss migration police
-- there was obscuration introduced in Switzerland during the nights in favor to the Third Reich since 1939 thus the allied air planes had no orientation on the European continent, but to the contrary Switzerland was also n a heavy danger being hit accidentally (which happened about 10 times all in all, above all in Schaffhausen and in Chiasso)
-- with a free limit of credit (freie Devisenspitze) for any purchase in Switzerland for German representatives, and there were tons of looted gold delivered to Switzerland
-- with an auction of "degenerate art" and with auctions of robbed jewelry from concentration camps from the suit cases of the deported Jews
-- with the delivery of parts for tanks and rockets to the Third Reich from ABB
-- with the protection of the railway line for the transit through the Alps at Gotthard and Simplon until April 1945
-- with the organization of the flight of the big Nazis passing Switzerland from 1944 to 1946 with the great help of Rothmund from Swiss migration police
-- with the persecution of investigating journalists like Surava by Nazi government member von Steiger (which was - what a coincidence - from SVP)
-- with the persecution of persons after 1945 who had helped the Jews during their persecution
-- with the fact that Switzerland after 1945 was not at all denazified but the upper class was just going on with it's racism and and and.

All this historic stuff was never taught in Swiss schools but was concealed there, but was coming up now for the young generation. After 1945 Swiss banks and lawyers had robbed huge Jewish fortunes because many Jews "did not come back" - instead of giving the fortunes back to Jewish communities. Jewish organizations with World Jewish Congress and Jewish Agency were preparing class actions for these concealed Jewish fortunes. There is a chronology about the events in these times. For people who is interested in details of Swiss history in the 1990s this is an interesting link. Propagandist Blocher will reproach to some Swiss persons they would have acted in a wrong way...
http://www.parlament.ch/d/dokumentation/dossiers/dossiers-archiv/ch-weltkrieg-2/Documents/ch-wk2-chronologie-d.pdf

What did do the members of AUNS and of SVP? They began with propaganda against "U.S.A.", and it can be admitted that the new literature with history analysis about Switzerland was never read by these members of AUNS and SVP. There were new books of Markus Heiniger, Jean Ziegler, Beat Balzli and Michael Fior. But the political party of SVP has no reading tradition, they just reject everything what concerns reading or library. Also the important book by Valentin Falin "Second Front" from 1992 was rated in the Swiss press only as if it would "all known" already. But it can be sure that they never read this thick book but they were simply simulating.

March 1, 1997: Blocher presenting a lecture with a "clarification" with more lies than truths about Swiss history


Blocher at his speech "A Clarification" at March 1, 1997 [15]

Propagandist and xenophobe Blocher is not at all educated in history, but on March 1, 1997 he hold a lecture "Switzerland and Second World War. A Clarification". It can be admitted that this speech was a propaganda product of SVP historian Mörgeli. There was content communicated which likes the "normal" Swiss soldier presenting Switzerland in a "good view" all in all. That means: this lecture was an element of the election campaign already and was not at all containing truths. The lecture can be read completely with this link below:
http://www.blocher.ch/uploads/media/970301klarstellung.pdf

Now the analysis of this lecture is very surprising how many lies this lecture contains:

<Switzerland and Second World War. A clarification (orig. German: Die Schweiz und der Zweite Weltkrieg. Eine Klarstellung)
(There were lots of spelling errors which were corrected).

Chapter 1: Nothing new under the sun (orig. German: I. Nichts Neues unter der Sonne)
Blocher stated
-- principally there was not said anything new and much had been known since 1945 (concealing that the school books in Switzerland concealed just everything!)
-- concerning the attacks from abroad Swiss government had a behavior like "chickens in a chicken yard"
-- the performance of Swiss people of these times of WWII had nowhere been appreciated
-- and Nazism had nothing to do with Swiss population because there was only one member of a Nazi party (Frontisten, Mr. Tobler) elected as a national deputy (p.2).

Quotation:
<Point 1: Between 1933 and 1945 Swiss population was resistant to Nazi ideas. In national votes practically 100% of Swiss voted democratic, Swiss political parties! There was only one national representative [Tobler] of the Swiss Nazi party "Frontisten" being a national deputy in the national parliament. Swiss were no Nazis; they were mentally defending themselves with their press  and with the authorities against Fascist behavior which was performed around them. Switzerland remained a democratic state in those years.>

(orig. in German:

1. Das Schweizervolk erwies sich zwischen 1933 und 1945 als resistent gegenüber dem nazistischen Gedankengut. Praktisch 100 % der Schweizer wählten auf Bundesebene demokratische, schweizerisch gebliebene Parteien! Einen einzigen Vertreter [Tobler] brachten die Fröntler 1935 für vier Jahre in den Nationalrat. Die Schweizer waren keine Nazis; sie standen mit ihrer Presse und ihren Behörden dem faschistischen Treiben ablehnend, ja hasserfüllt gegenüber. Die Schweiz ist in jenen Jahren ein demokratischer Rechtsstaat geblieben.

But Blocher is concealing any collaboration and friendly turns of Swiss government for Nazi governments from 1933 to 1946. We will see later what this means.

-- nobody in Switzerland had been abused, tortured or murdered

Quotation:
<Point 2: Nobody in our country was abused by the state's approval, tortured or murdered. Government Member Obrecht announced to Hitler without any doubt that we Swiss will not go abroad honoring him. Any attacker will expect war.>

(orig. in German:

2. Niemand wurde in unserem Land mit staatlicher Billigung misshandelt, gefoltert, ermordet. Bundesrat Obrecht verkündete 1938 an die Adresse Hitlers unmissverständlich, dass wir Schweizer nicht ins

Ausland wallfahrten würden. Jeden Angreifer, wer es auch sei, erwarte der Krieg.

But Blocher is concealing for example the absolutely superfluous death sentences by General Guisan which were enforced in 1944 yet.

-- and Swiss army had warded Switzerland at any time and no industrial company had fallen into the hand of the enemy at any time.

Quotation:
<Point 3: All in all 800,000 men (in a country of 4 million this is 20% of the population) were warding our state's territory from 1939 to 1945 and were stressing the armed neutrality [of Switzerland]. They were ready to give their lives for the country. No important transport axis, no important industrial company had fallen into the hands of the enemy.

(orig. in German:

3. Insgesamt 800'000 Mann (im 4-Millionen-Land 20 % der Bevölkerung) bewachten von 1939 bis 1945 unser Staatsgebiet und verschafften der bewaffneten Neutralität Nachdruck. Sie waren bereit, ihr

Leben für unser Land hinzugeben. Keine wichtige Verkehrsachse, kein nennenswerter Industriebetrieb wäre dem Feind unversehrt in die Hände gefallen.

This is a complete lie of propagandist Christoph Blocher, because he is concealing that Swiss army had retired to the Alps in 1940 leaving all industry in the Central Plateau without any military protection since August 1940. Such a lie can be only from the liar "historian" Mörgeli...

-- and Swiss population had sacrificed themselves for any resistance.

Quotation:
<Point 4: Switzerland showed a will for resistance with many sacrifices which was unique in the world: There can be mentioned a battle for cultivation under the latter government member Mr. Wahlen from SVP, there was a limitation of food, there was a prevention for war conditions, there was a war loan, there were additional taxes.

(orig. in German:

4. Die Schweiz zeigte unter gewaltigen Opfern einen Widerstandswillen, der seinesgleichen sucht: Erwähnt seien die sogenannte Anbauschlacht unter Leitung des späteren SVP-Bundesrates Wahlen,

die Rationierung der Lebensmittel, die Kriegsvorsorge, die Wehranleihe, zusätzliche Steuerabgaben.

Well here Mr. propagandist Christoph Blocher (and I suppose the liar historian Mörgeli wrote this propaganda text) they both are concealing all collaboration of Swiss industry for the Third Reich
-- not only delivering barracks for concentration camps to the Reich, but also
-- parts for tanks and rockets (ABB)
-- Swiss Railway was giving any service to Hitler for the transit through the Alps
-- Swiss banks were handing out Jewish bank accounts to German SS men
-- Swiss bourse in Zurich was selling robbed Jewish stocks
-- obscuration during the night was introduced in favor of the Third Reich and had NOT been for the protection of Switzerland
-- the whole collaboration of Swiss banks with the German Nazi SS handing out Jewish bank accounts on neutral soil was concealed
-- the neutral Swiss territory was made available for selling actions of Jewish belongings from concentration camps
-- there were auctions of "degenerated art" and of robbed Jewish jewelry in Switzerland
-- Swiss migration police under Rothmund was inventing Jewish stamp in collaboration with the Third Reich in 1938 provoking that 1,000s of Jews came directly to concentration camps after the rejection at the Swiss border
-- the same Swiss migration police under Rothmund was acting after the conference of Strasbourg after 1944 organizing the big flight of big Nazis to South "America", and the big fortunes of these big Nazis often also were saved passing Switzerland
-- and also the fact was concealed that the railway transit through the Alps (Gotthard, Simplon) was under military protection evading attacks and interruptions of transports between Germany and Italy
-- additionally masses of Swiss people were working as messengers for the Nazis, as spies, or as money hideout.

Speaking from "resistance" is an absolute lie because real resistance against this Nazi collaboration was punished with death penalty and there was for example NEVER ANY attack against the railway lines...

-- Blocher claimed that Swiss had been made a "coalition" against Nazism, one could ask the witnesses of that time

Quotation:
<Point 5: Speaking with civilians who lived during those times will feel: Switzerland made a coalition, families and employees, industrial workers, farmers - they all had a strong feeling of shared identity in those heavy times, a solidarity as it had never before and never after those times.

(orig. in German:

5. Wer mit Bürgerinnen und Bürgern spricht, die diese Zeit bewusst durchlebt haben, spürt: Die Schweizer standen zusammen, Familien von Angestellten, Industriearbeitern, Bauern - sie alle ver-

band in dieser schweren Zeit ein Gefühl der Zusammengehörigkeit, der Solidarität, wie vorher und später nie wieder.

Well, here propagandist Christoph Blocher is for example concealing that Swiss banksters executed any action for the Third Reich, and also the government gave "free credit" ("Freie Devisenspitze") for the Third Reich. The Third Reich could even have any credit at the end of the war in 1944 and in 1945 yet.

-- Blocher means that Switzerland had been encircled in 1940

Quotation:
<Point 6: Military threat was - this are proving also latest investigations - a reality. In summer 1940 German general staff received Hitler's order to work out detailed plans of attack against Switzerland. Mussolini wanted to shift the Italian border to the northern mountain ranges of the Alps. Hitler spoke to Mussolini in 1942 calling Switzerland a "wicked bad miserable folk and country" and Swiss would be the "deadly enemy of Germany". Stalin was offending Switzerland as "pigs". We should not take too easy such words from two mass murderers, but at the same time one can consider such words as a complement!>

(orig. in German:

6. Die militärische Bedrohung war - das beweisen auch neueste Untersuchungen - Realität. Im Sommer 1940 arbeitete der deutsche Generalstab auf Geheiss Hitlers detaillierte Angriffspläne gegen die

Schweiz aus, Mussolini wollte die italienische Grenze gleichzeitig bis zur nördlichen Hochalpenkette verlegen. Hitler nannte die Schweiz 1942 vor Mussolini das "niederträchtigste und erbärmlichste Volk und Staatsgebilde" und die Schweizer "Todfeinde des neuen Deutschland". Stalin beschimpfte die Schweizer als "Schweine". Wir dürfen solche Worte aus dem Munde zweier Massenmörder nicht allzu leicht nehmen, aber gleichzeitig auch als Kompliment auffassen!

Germany and Mussolini in fact wanted to part Switzerland in 1940. This is right. But the reality was another one because Switzerland remained the only island for espionage and never was attacked just for this - and for the technical quality of it's armament parts - and for more.

-- the defense preparedness of Swiss army had been high

Quotation:
<Point 7: Fact is that an "Action Switzerland" by Hitler against Switzerland with it's civilian army had provoked much losses for the attackers and had bound many forces [of the Wehrmacht].>

(orig. in German:

7. Tatsache ist, dass eine Aktion Schweiz durch Hitler wegen der Verteidigungsbereitschaft der schweizerischen Milizarmee für den Angreifer unverhältnismässig viele Kräfte gekostet und gebunden

hätte.

Well, this is only right until August 1940, and then Swiss army retired to the Alps to the "réduit" (cubbyhole)" and left all the Plains with all industrial companies and with the main part of the Swiss population to it's fate. A bigger lie of Swiss defense cannot be by Blocher and liar Mörgeli.

-- Blocher stated, only since 1942 Hitler did not want to attack Switzerland any more:

Quotation:
<Point 8: Only at the end of 1942 after the occupation of South of France the Third Reich had more advantages with an intact Switzerland. When the allies were penetrating from southern and western Europe in 1943 and in 1944 the danger of a German invasion saving the supply lines was rising again.

(orig. in German:

8. Erst Ende 1942, nach der Besetzung Südfrankreichs, überwogen für das Dritte Reich die Vorteile einer intakten Schweiz. Als die Alliierten 1943/44 in Süd- und Westeuropa vorrückten, stieg die Gefahr eines deutschen Einmarsches zur Sicherung der Nachschublinien noch einmal).

Also this statement of Blocher is an absolute lie: Since 1940 Holland and Belgium were eliminated as spying centers and Switzerland left alone as spying center for the allies and for the Third Reich in Europe. That's why Hitler could NEVER afford any attack of Switzerland, also when his army "Wehrmacht" had some attacks in their cupboards called "operation fir tree" ("Operation Tannenbaum").

-- Switzerland was the shelter for many refugees, registered and not registered refugees, and was working as a protecting power and as a diplomatic representation for 43 countries in the world, all in all for 1.6 billion people

Quotation:
<Point 9: Also humanitarian help was a contribution for a positive balance of neutrality. During war times 295,381 registered refugees and internees were living in Switzerland on protecting Swiss soil. Additionally there were many immigrants - with many Jews - never enrolling with Swiss police, but they were sheltered by private people.

Aside to this help for refugees the International Committee of the Red Cross was giving good services without limits in the war countries. Neutral Switzerland took diplomatic protection mandates for 43 countries and for their civilians concerning their enemies, also for the "United States of America" concerning 12 enemy states - also this seems having been forgotten!

The population of those 43 states which had their diplomacy working over Switzerland during WWII was all in all 1.6 billion or one fifth of the world's population. Switzerland was representing "USA" to Bulgaria, China, Denmark, Germany, Finland, France, Indo China, Italy, Japan, Romania, Thailand, and Hungary. At the other way round war leading states were represented in the "USA" by Switzerland, these were Germany, France, Italy, Bulgaria, and Japan. Compare the book of Werner Rings: Advocates of the enemy (Advokaten des Feindes 1966, p.9,11,19-20; compare also the big history collection of historian Bonjour volume 5 (1970), p. 361)

(orig. in German:

9. Auch die humanitäre Hilfe trug zu einer positiven Bilanz der Neutralität bei. Während der Kriegszeit lebten für kürzere oder längere Zeit 295'381 registrierte Flüchtlinge und Internierte auf dem schützen-

den Schweizerboden. Dazu kamen zahlreiche Emigranten, darunter viele Juden, die sich nicht bei der Polizei anmeldeten und von Privaten beherbergt wurden.

Neben dieser Flüchtlingshilfe leistete das Internationale Komitee vom Roten Kreuz in den kriegsführenden Ländern unzählige gute Dienste. Die neutrale Schweiz übernahm die diplomatischen Schutzmachtmandate für 43 Länder und ihre Bürger gegenüber den jeweiligen Gegnern, nicht zuletzt auch für die Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika gegenüber 12 Feindstaaten - auch das scheint man vergessen zu haben!

Die Bevölkerung der 43 Staaten, die dem Kleinstaat Schweiz im Zweiten Weltkrieg ihre diplomatische Vertretung anvertrauten, umfasste 1,6 Milliarden oder vier Fünftel der Weltbevölkerung. Die Schweiz vertrat die USA als Schutzmacht gegenüber Bulgarien, China, Dänemark, Deutschland, Finnland, Frankreich, Indochina, Italien, Japan, Rumänien, Thailand, Ungarn. Umgekehrt liessen sich kriegsführende Staaten durch die Schweiz in den USA vertreten, nämlich Deutschland, Frankreich, Italien, Bulgarien und Japan. Vgl. Rings, Werner: Advokaten des Feindes, das Abenteuer der politischen Neutralität, Wien/Düsseldorf 1966, S. 9, 11, 19 f. Vgl. auch Bonjour, Bd. 5 (1970), S. 361 (S.3)

Thus when Switzerland was working for 43 states in the world and also for "U.S.A.", China and Germany, Switzerland was working as a diplomatic straw, and thus Switzerland never could have been attacked at all.

-- since June 1940 Switzerland had been "embraced completely" by the axis

Quotation:

<Point 10: Since June 1940 Switzerland had been completely encircled. Any access to the world was lost. Surviving was very difficult to organize. Of course in such a situation - and above all after 1940 - there was trade with the Axis Powers. With whom else? Life important importation and exportation had to be saved - both was also working with the allies as far as it was possible. Commerce with the allies was only possible when the Axis Powers let pass the merchandise. Survival of a little state was depending - aside of the resistance in the population and in the army - from skillful negociations of the statal delegates for foreign commerce and from private managers. It was not working without compromises and without concessions. In all parts of the population there was a big fear to be unemployed, there was a fear from hunger and the hardship was big and was justified; political and social unrest were omitted because they had broken the mental resistance. All parties - also the Social Democrats - knew precisely that for an enclosed little state the economical relations with the Third Reich were inevitable. The circles who are apologizing for this economical policy of those times are putting the guilt to the responsibles of those times (otherwise there would not be an apologize!) and with this they are offending the responsibles of those times in a heavy way. Can you apologize that a population was bewared from hunger?!

(orig. in German:
10. Ab Juni 1940 war die Schweiz von den Achsenmächten vollständig umklammert. Dadurch verlor sie ihren freien Zugang zur Welt. Der für das Überleben nötige Handelsspielraum wurde eng. Selbstverständlich hat man in dieser Situation auch - und nach 1940 vor allem - mit den Achsenmächten Handel getrieben. Mit wem denn sonst? Es galt, den lebensnotwendigen Import und Export sicherzustellen - beides versuchte man soweit möglich auch mit den Alliierten. Handel mit den Alliierten wiederum war nur möglich, wenn die umklammernden Achsenmächte die Waren durchliessen. Das Überleben des Kleinstaates hing - neben dem Widerstand des Volkes und der Armee - vom geschickten Verhandeln staatlicher Aussenhandelsdelegierter und Privatunternehmer ab. Es ging nicht ohne Kompromisse und Zugeständnisse. In allen Bevölkerungskreisen war die Furcht vor Arbeitslosigkeit, Hunger und Not gross und berechtigt; politische und soziale Unruhen hätten den Widerstandsgeist gebrochen. Alle Parteien - auch die Sozialdemokraten - wussten genau, dass für einen eingeschlossenen Kleinstaat Wirtschaftsbeziehungen mit dem Dritten Reich unumgänglich waren. Die Kreise, die sich heute für die seinerzeitige Handelspolitik entschuldigen, weisen den Verantwortlichen von damals eine Schuld zu (sonst könnte man sich ja nicht entschuldigen!) und beleidigen die damals verantwortungsvoll Handelnden in schwerster Weise. Soll man sich etwa dafür entschuldigen, dass man ein Volk vor dem Hunger bewahrt?!

Well, but Blocher is lying! Switzerland was not completely encircled in 1940, but there was one railway line left free to the Mediterranean Sea between Geneva and Marseilles. Concessions of Swiss commercial representatives to the Third Reich were far reaching. Additionally there was the eternal transit passing the Alps with coal for Italy and with war material for Africa. Germany received free credit for almost everything what they wanted up to precision parts for tanks and rockets, and this was granted up to the end of the war. Switzerland gave also an essential contribution so the big Nazis could take their flight to South "America" between 1944 and 1946 after the conference of Strasbourg in 1944, and these big Nazis could even save their fortunes. This collaboration of after 1944 cannot be justified with an "encirclement", but the Swiss responsibles of industries, of migration police and of Swiss government were absolute full Nazis and they remained like this also when news about mass death of Jews in concentration camps were coming in. Auschwitz was not the focus, but there was mass death in camps in underground tunnel systems in whole Germany, in ghettos, mass shootings in eastern Europe, and deportations to Stalin's Gulag. Also Jewish mass death in the Red Army has to be considered. Additionally since autumn 1943 since the foundation of the Republic of Saló in Upper Italy the Nazis were robbing there all industries with the Italian workers inclusive transferring all to Germany passing the Swiss Alps, without interruption, instead there was no encirclement in 1944 any more. To the contrary Swiss military was ordered to the borders to prevent that Allies would pass through Switzerland to reach the German border faster...

-- Mr. Blocher claims that from 1939 to 1945 the neutrality of the country "was hold up in essential points" and not one single of the warmongers had received any advantage of it. Above all Switzerland has never taken part in war actions, and did not give any marching-through, and before the end of the war no interned soldiers were given to anybody, and Switzerland had never given "statal weapons to a warmonger state.

Quotation:

<Point 11: There are claims that Switzerland was not neutral during WWII. This is wrong. Switzerland has holding up it's neutrality in essential points and was deliberately interpreting it's neutrality in a stronger way than the international law was prescribing it. Our right of neutrality does not permit any military privilege directly taking part at wars, no privilege for marching-through of troops, no handover of interned soldiers before the end of the war, no statal delivery of weapons to warmonger states. Switzerland did fulfill all these points.

(orig. in German:
11. Die Schweiz hat das Neutralitätsrecht entgegen anders lautenden Behauptungen während des Krieges im wesentlichen hochgehalten, hat es sogar freiwillig enger ausgelegt, als es das Völkerrechtverlangte. Unser Neutralitätsrecht gestattet keine militärische Begünstigung von Kriegsführenden durch direkte Beteiligung an Kriegszügen, keine Gewährung von Truppendurchmärschen, keine Freigabe internierter Soldaten vor Kriegsende, keine staatlichen Waffenlieferungen an Kriegsführende. Daran hat sich die Schweiz vollumfänglich gehalten.

Well, the transit passing the Alps, what is this? This is just a "marching-through" or not? German troops passed Brenner Pass in Austria. And army cars and tanks and coal for Italy was passing Switzerland during all the 6 years of the war. This transit passing the Alps was working impeccably, also for the mass robbery in Upper Italy after autumn 1493. And Swiss Railway (Schweizerische Bundesbahnen, SBB) were making money with these transports like a fool. Weapon production in Switzerland was in private hands. That's why there is no "statal delivery of arms". But these private arms industries in Switzerland were producing EVERYTHING up to parts for tanks and rockets, up to 1945. Neutrality was just not existing...

-- Swiss General was speaking with French representatives in April 1940 for the case if German troops were passing Switzerland for attacking France. Blocher was saying this fact in a general allusion that the General was talking with allies in the case of an attack, and Blocher also stated that weapon deliveries of private industry and commerce would not violate the neutrality.

Quotation:
<Point 12: Policy of neutrality allows an elastic position. It's distinctly not forbidden to contact a future ally when an attack can be expected (General Guisan did this with the French representatives). And weapon deliveries of private industries and all private commerce are not forbidden either.

(orig. in German:

12. Die Neutralitätspolitik erlaubt demgegenüber eine elastischere Haltung. Ausdrücklich nicht verboten sind etwa die vorsorgliche Kontaktnahme mit allfälligen Verbündeten vor dem Angriff (General

Guisan tat dies mit den Franzosen), die Waffenlieferung der Privatindustrie und überhaupt der private Handelsaustausch.

Rocket parts from ABB for rockets against England and intercontinental rockets against "U.S.A." were not violating Swiss neutrality... And the Third Reich had credit without limits in Switzerland up to the end of the war in 1945, and this credit without limits did not violate neutrality... This was racist logic of Mr. Blocher and Mr. Mörgeli.

-- mental neutrality had not been possible in the population

Quotation:
<Point 13: A mental neutrality could not be pushed through in the Swiss population, even if the government members had loved to see this during WWII by the fear from the threatening neighbor.

(orig. in German:

13. Eine Gesinnungsneutralität liess sich damals beim Schweizervolk ohnehin nicht durchsetzen, selbst wenn dies einzelne Bundesräte im Zweiten Weltkrieg aus Angst vor den drohenden Nachbarn

nicht ungern gesehen hätten.

-- Blocher mentions Churchill now giving a praise about Swiss neutrality because Switzerland as a democratic state "had defended it's freedom from the mountains downwards"

Quotation:
<Point 14: Already during the war the practice of neutrality was a very discussed subject. English War Prime Minister Winston S. Churchill said on December 14, 1944 - thus before the end of the war - about the role of Switzerland during WWII: "From all neutral states Switzerland has the biggest claim for a privileged treatment. They were the only international factor being a connection point within this horror world in Europe. What it means if they were capable to give us privileges of commerce, or that they gave too much to the Germans for being saved from war? Switzerland was a democratic state which defended it's freedom from their mountains downwards, and despite of their ethnic affiliation [to the Germans] they were mentally mostly on our side."

(orig. in German:
14. Schon während des Krieges war die Handhabung der Neutralität Gegenstand heftigster Kontroversen. Der englische Kriegspremier Winston S. Churchill sagte am 13. Dezember 1944- also noch vor Kriegsende - zur Rolle der Schweiz im Zweiten Weltkrieg: "Von allen Neutralen hat die Schweiz das grösste Anrecht auf bevorzugte Behandlung. Sie war der einzige internationale Faktor, der uns mit den uns schrecklich Entfremdeten noch verband. Was bedeutet es schon, ob sie in der Lage war, uns die gewünschten Handelsvorteile zu gewähren, oder dass sie, um sich am Leben zu erhalten, den Deutschen zu viel gewährt hat? Sie war ein demokratischer Staat, der von seinen Bergen aus seine Freiheit verteidigt hat, und trotz ihrer ethnischen Zugehörigkeit hat die Schweiz gesinnungsmässig grösstenteils unsere Partei ergriffen."

Well, Blocher concealing all the censorship of the Swiss Nazi government, and is concealing all death penalties in Switzerland during the war time. Big parts of Switzerland were "prepared" for an invasion of Hitler's troops and one knew who would be the Gauleiter in Switzerland. Churchill seems to conceal all the collaboration of Switzerland with the Third Reich and did not understand anything, for example the fact that the rockets V1 and V2 were flying with Swiss precision parts against London. And the right for a marching-through passing Switzerland was the transit through the Alps and was only for the Axis Powers. But the Allies coming from South of France had no right passing Switzerland but hat do make a big detour passing French Jura Mountains. That means that this praise of Switzerland for it's "neutrality" was only a tactic maneuver of foreign policy.

-- also "U.S.A." had praised Swiss neutrality

Quotation:
<And even "America" had praised fortitude of Switzerland. The well reputed "New York Herald Tribune" wrote in 1943: "Swiss are faithful to themselves, and also in the darkest hour of the year 1940, when nothing else remained than boldness of Great Britain and the blind belief of free man of the rest of the world remained between Hitler and Europe.">

(orig. in German:

Und sogar in Amerika wurde die standhafte Schweiz gelobt. Die angesehene "New York Herald Tribune" schrieb 1943: "Die Schweizer sind sich treu geblieben, und zwar auch in dunkelsten Stunden des

Jahres 1940, als nichts ausser die Tapferkeit Grossbritanniens und der blinde Glaube der freien Männer der übrigen Welt zwischen Hitler und Europa stand." (S.4)

Well, "U.S.A." helped themselves to reconstruct the Third Reich with it's war industry and they were collaborating until 1945, and it seems that they did not want to present Switzerland as a culprit because otherwise the center of espionage would have been in danger.

-- Mr. Blocher is claiming that the left political parties would pollute "armed neutrality" now, but this neutrality also has protected many Jews:

Quotation:
<Point 15: Today there is no occasion left out to degrade this guideline of neutrality and to downgrade the former defense preparedness. It seems interesting that just political circles are doing this who have fought and thwarted the military defense of the country in the 1930s already. And also today they are acting against the army and the armed neutrality - and one more time - they are dreaming from peace which would be to hard for them to defend. Adolf Muschg [left Swiss writer] called neutrality in the Berne Newspaper [Berner Zeitung] as "an indecent fart". Well, he is a professor of literature and he has his own kind of language. Also National Socialist Germany did call Swiss neutrality in 1940 an "old fashioned event and not acceptable with the new order of Europe" (this sentence is also actual in the times of today). Just because Switzerland had declared it's neutrality as a perpetual one, because it's foreign policy was not adapting to the changing conditions around Switzerland, this Switzerland was protected after WWII from reproaches having had a policy which had gone with the wind and mainstream in Europe - thus there is the question to the smart-aleck enemies of neutrality - what had been with Switzerland when it had not been neutral during WWII? What had been when we had made war at the side of Germany having our "place at the sun" (how some Swiss wanted it)? What had happened when we - surrounded by Nazi territories - had proclaimed that we would enter the war on the side of the allies? What hat been with Swiss population, with the refugees, with the local Jews and with the Jewish refugees? Asking for alternatives there is only the conclusion that there was no other solution than the armed neutrality! Edgar Bonjour [Swiss historian with a big but censored history work about Switzerland] having presented this neutrality in an excellent and objective way was confessing after his studies for years that he is an "absolute fan of this guideline in Swiss foreign policy". Compared with Sweden, Portugal or Spain is coming out that Switzerland had the most consequent and strongest way of neutrality.

(orig. in German:
15. Heute wird keine Gelegenheit ausgelassen, um die Staatsmaxime Neutralität mit Füssen zu treten und die damalige Verteidigungsbereitschaft der Armee zu bespötteln. Interessanterweise tun dies gerade diejenigen politischen Kreise, welche schon in den 30er Jahren die militärische Landesverteidigung bekämpft und hintertrieben haben und die auch heute gegen die Armee und die bewaffnete Neutralität agieren und - einmal mehr - für den Frieden schwärmen, den zu verteidigen ihnen zu mühsam wäre. Adolf Muschg bezeichnete in der Berner Zeitung die Neutralität als "einen unanständigen Furz". Nun, der Herr Literaturprofessor hat seine eigene, zu ihm passende Sprache. Auch das nationalsozialistische Deutschland hat 1940 die bewaffnete schweizerische Neutralität "als durch die Ereignisse völlig überholt und mit der Neuordnung Europas unvereinbar" bezeichnet (dieser Satz ist Ihnen aus der heutigen Zeit nicht unbekannt). Gerade weil die Schweiz ihre Neutralität zu einer immerwährenden erklärt hat, weil sie ihre Aussenpolitik nicht ständig den veränderlichen Verhältnissen anpasste, war sie nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg vor dem Vorwurf geschützt, ihren Mantel um des momentanen Vorteils willen nach dem Winde gehängt zu haben. Was - so möchte man die neunmalklugen Neutralitätsgegner fragen - wäre aus der Schweiz geworden, wenn sie im Zweiten Weltkrieg nicht neutral geblieben wäre? Was wäre geschehen, wenn wir uns an der Seite der Deutschen in den Krieg gestürzt hätten, um auch einen "Platz an der Sonne" zu ergattern (wie es einige Schweizer wollten)? Was wäre geschehen, wenn wir, umschlossen von Nazideutschland, verkündet hätten, wir träten auf der Seite der Alliierten in den Krieg ein? Was wäre geschehen mit dem Schweizervolk, mit den Flüchtlingen, den hier ansässigen und den vorübergehend aufgenommenen Juden? Wer die Alternativen untersucht, muss zum Schluss kommen, dass es ausser der bewaffneten Neutralität keine Lösung gab! Edgar Bonjour, der sich mit der Geschichte unserer Neutralität in fachlich hervorragender und objektiver Weise verdient gemacht hat, bekannte sich nach seinen jahrelangen Studien als "unbedingten Anhänger unserer aussenpolitischen Maxime". Ein Vergleich mit Schweden, Portugal oder Spanien zeige, dass die Schweiz die konsequenteste und strengste Neutralitätsauffassung vertreten habe.

Well, this "neutrality" also protected the big Nazis, when they passed Switzerland for South "America", and Swiss lawyers brought them their funds in diplomatic suit cases, and Swiss banksters and lawyers were robbing Jewish bank accounts under the protection of the bank secret when Jews did not come back. And Swiss government knew about all this. This is Swiss "neutrality"...

-- at last "the tough and the resistant people did push through in our country":

Quotation:

<Point 16: Also in those times not everybody had the force to withstand the pressure which came from outside. There were weak persons, there were adapters and creepers who always came up, who will exist today and also in the future. There were some measures taken by the authorities - instigated by employees remote from everyday life - like the Jewish stamp rejecting Jews with a stamp in their passport at the frontier, rejecting Jews at the hermetic border after 1942, refugees were expelled, and there was a rigorous censorship of the authorities - all this is not understandable looking backward and can be criticized. Here and there also was an adaptive behavior to threatening Germany. All this is proved in historic investigations already. But the decisive point is that the Swiss population was resistant at the end and had a will of resistance. Looking backwards all states have to complain such singular cases and faults. But the main point is the view as a whole, and here Switzerland did not fail, but did reward itself. Who had the idea to reproach to England the policy of Chamberlain, to reproach to the "U.S.A." their late entry into the war, the Soviet Union the non-aggression pact with Hitler? All this cannot diminish their contribution to the liberation of Europe.

(orig. in German:
16. Auch damals hatten in unserem Lande nicht alle die Kraft, der Gefahr und dem Druck von aussen standzuhalten. Es gab Schwache, es gab Anpasser und Leisetreter, die es immer gab, heute gibt und auch in Zukunft geben wird. Einzelne behördliche Massnahmen - angeregt durch lebensfremde, eigenmächtige Bürokraten - wie der Judenstempel, die Bestimmungen, wonach Juden für jüdische Flüchtlinge selbst aufzukommen hatten, die hermetisch abgeriegelte Grenze nach 1942, die Ausweisung von Flüchtlingen, aber auch die zu rigorosen Zensurbestimmungen der Behörden sind im Rückblick unverständlich und zu kritisieren. Da und dort war auch ein allzu willfähriges Verhalten dem bedrohlichen Deutschland gegenüber festzustellen. All dies ist in historischen Untersuchungen längst belegt worden. Entscheidend ist aber, dass sich letztlich die Widerstandsfähigen und Widerstandswilligen in unserem Lande durchgesetzt haben. Alle Staaten haben rückblickend in Einzelfällen solche Fehler zu beklagen. Es kommt aber auf das Ganze an, und hier hat die Schweiz nicht versagt, sondern sich ausgezeichnet. Wem käme es in den Sinn, den Engländern in erster Linie die Politik Chamberlains, den Amerikanern das zu späte Eingreifen in den Krieg, der Sowjetunion in erster Linie den Nichtangriffspakt mit Hitler vorzuwerfen? All dies kann doch das grosse Verdienst dieser Staaten bei der Befreiung Europas nicht mindern.

But resistance in Switzerland stopped where the profit with the Third Reich began, and was even going on and on after 1945 yet. Furthermore Switzerland was NEVER denazified after 1945 which can be seen in this political party of SVP of Mr. Blocher, because they know precisely which fact has to be omitted to present oneself in a "good light".

-- after June 1940 after the occupation of France by the German Wehrmacht Swiss government got week in the knees when German tanks were placed in the Jura Mountains, and General Guisan was not looking for support in the Swiss government but in the Swiss population, and Switzerland did "stick out" the situation:

Quotation:
<In 1940 - during the culmination point of danger [when France was occupied in June 1940] - Swiss government member [Foreign Minister] Pilet-Golaz hold a speech for an adaption to the Reich. He had meetings with Swiss Nazis in the Federal Building. German fighters violated Swiss airspace and this was tolerated. General Guisan had to rely on the population now because after 1940 he could not count on the resistance of the Swiss government any more. According to the meaning of Hermann Böschenstein our country had a weak period after 1940 when the firm government members Minger and Obrecht were going. We had the weakest Federal Council [Swiss Government] since the foundation of this Council (What history will say in 50 years about the today's Swiss Government Federal Council has to be left open!) But there is something wonderful: Switzerland did stick it out despite of some inconstancy from time to time on the highest level.

(orig. in German:
1940 - auf dem Höhepunkt der Gefährdung - verunsicherte Bundesrat Pilet-Golaz das Schweizervolk mit einer anpasserischen Rede. Er gab den Fröntlern die Ehre eines Empfanges im Bundeshaus. Man duldete Luftraumverletzungen. General Guisan musste sich immer wieder direkt auf das Volk stützen, weil er dem Widerstandswillen des Bundesrates nach 1940 nicht mehr recht traute. Nach Meinung von Hermann Böschenstein hatte unser Land 1940, nach dem Rücktritt der standfesten Bundesräte Minger und Obrecht, den schwächsten Bundesrat nach Gründung des Bundesstaates (Was die Geschichte in fünfzig Jahren über den heutigen Bundesrat sagen wird, muss offen bleiben!) Aber dies war das Wunderbare: Die Schweiz hielt durch, trotz zeitweiligem Wankelmut auf höchster Ebene. (S.5)

This is another big lie when one considers all the collaboration from obscuration up to rocket parts and the flood of high Nazi members passing Switzerland also in 1946 yet. Switzerland with it's censorship was a Nazi Switzerland and the managers of the industries made their profits of their life. Bührle for example was a German producing weapons for the Third Reich in Zurich in Oerlikon District, and all was allowed, and after 1945 he could keep all the profit. There were some resident complexes built then ...

-- many people of "leading circles" collaborated, but "the population" was resisting for ever despite of censorship and full powers for the government and despite of the adapting Swiss Foreign Minister Pilet-Golaz:

Quotation:

<Point 17: When here is the question about adaption and resistance, so there also the question has to be put who was an adaptive person from 1933 to 1945: the population or some of the so called leading upper class of policy, economy and society? The answer is very clear: The population was far more willing for resistance and defended it's sovereignty in a very decisive way than many people of the leading circles. Much was concealed from the population: Swiss popular rights were limited in those years, there was a censorship, the government acted with additional full powers. Federal Council was partly copying the language of the totalitarian political culture of the Fascist enemy. Thus Foreign Minister Pilet-Golaz was saying in his adaptive speech of 1940: "Time of the inner rebirth has come". He called Swiss people "to follow the government as a sure and devoted leader who cannot explain every decision and who will not have to explain and to justify every decision". Pilet thought in an absolute elitist way. He saw the population only as a shadow of mass without any will, and he compared the democracy with an old, falling leave.

This tendency of the governing class to eliminate the people's voice concerning their "higher conclusions" evading people's votes we know also today! Also here we can learn from history: Isn't it like this that there are also leading circles who want to adapt and to hand over essential democratic rights to a centralist bureaucracy in Brussels?

But it can be hoped that such tendencies will wreck today like they failed in former times; they will fail at the drive for independence, at the spirit of contradiction, at a certain independent line of Swiss people, will fail at the many different political cultures of our country, will fail at federalism and at the sovereignty of our population which should never been handed over.

(orig. in German:
17. Wenn hier die Frage von Anpassung und Widerstand aufgeworfen wird, so ist die Frage zu stellen, wer denn 1933 bis 1945 allenfalls zu anpasserisch war: das Volk oder einige der sogenannt führenden Leute in der Politik, der Wirtschaft und der Gesellschaft? Die Antwort ist eindeutig: Das Volk war weit widerstandswilliger und verteidigte die Souveränität weit entschlossener als viele Leute in führenden Kreisen. Vieles blieb dem Volk verborgen: Die Schweizer Volksrechte waren in jenen Jahren eingeschränkt, es herrschte die Pressezensur, die Regierung regierte mit zusätzlichen Vollmachten. Der Bundesrat übernahm zuweilen die Sprache und die totalitäre politische Kultur des faschistischen Gegners. So sagte Aussenminister Pilet-Golaz in seiner anpasserischen Rede von 1940: "Der Zeitpunkt der inneren Wiedergeburt ist gekommen." Er rief das Schweizervolk auf, "der Regierung als sicherem und hingebendem Führer, der seine Entscheidungen nicht immer wird erklären, erläutern und begründen müssen", zu folgen. Pilet dachte durch und durch elitär, sah im Volke nur eine dumpfe, willenlose Masse und verglich die Demokratie mit einem welken, fallenden Blatt.

Die Tendenz der Regierenden, sich bei ihrer "höheren Einsicht" vom Volke höchst ungern dreinschwatzen zu lassen, Volksentscheide möglichst zu umgehen, kennen wir auch heute! Auch hier können wir aus der Geschichte lernen: Wollen nicht auch heute führende Kreise auf anpasserische Weise wesentliche demokratische Rechte an eine zentralistische Bürokratie in Brüssel abtreten?

Es ist aber zu hoffen, dass solche Tendenzen heute ebenso scheitern wie damals; scheitern am Selbständigkeitsdrang, am Widerspruchsgeist, an einer gewissen Eigenbrötlerei des Schweizers, scheitern an der vielfältigen politischen Kultur unseres Landes, am Föderalismus und an der Volkssouveränität, die wir nicht preisgeben dürfen).

Well, in this "population" also many were working for those who were on the way with their swastika. They were blowing Swiss installations, were working as spies, have shifted documents, sold stolen stocks at the bourse in Switzerland, have organized auctions for robbed goods from concentrations camps in Switzerland, have always given the Nazis foreign currency, were always willing to print reviews like "Signal" (Das Signal) in the sense for a final victory etc., there were Swiss people denouncing other people, or there were Swiss people taking their flight in May 1940 with their cars into the Alps, or there were Swiss people collaborating with secret action for the transaction of Nazi funds by manipulated orders in the Swiss industries etc. Swiss banksters concealed everything what they had done for the Nazis, Swiss Railway was making profits without end with the transit passing the alps (a marching-through) for the Third Reich passing Gotthard Tunnel or Simplon Tunnel etc. etc. Mr. Blocher and Mr. Mörgeli know this exactly and they know what they have to omit to stay in a "good light", but thanks for God there are also other historians in Switzerland...

But above all there is not one single attack known committed by Swiss resistance against the railway lines blocking this transit for the Axis Powers passing the Alps!. That means, this "resistance" against the ideology of the Third Reich seems having been very weak or not at all present. Since the victory against France in 1940 whole Switzerland was heading for Berlin with the exception of the Communists - waiting for a victory against Moscow. According to indications from German contemporary witnesses there were German radio broadcasts describing the mood in Switzerland with the fact that 90% were for Hitler and his Nazism. Thus after the German victory against France Nazism was penetrating all Switzerland without changing any name of any political party.

-- since May 1940 the Third Reich propagated a "New Europe", also when the final victory against Communism was not scored yet at all, [and also when the most important ally against Russia - Japan - was lost!]. Goebbels's propaganda with a "New Europe" was going on and on but nobody believed it. Goebbels meant that it would be a disadvantage not to be member of "New Europe". Also the voices of the managers in Switzerland who claimed for an adaption remained blocked by the resistance.

Quotation:
<Point 18: But also a part of the leading circles of the economy was urging for an adaption to the surrounding big power. They wanted a sudden and strong guideline to "New Europe" (well, this is only a repeated story - and also today - we have persons making propaganda with a "New Europe"). Many economy leaders believed in propaganda minister Goebbels who proclaimed on March 25, 1941 that Germany's goal was a new order in Europe which would be an advantage for every state (also these songs are not unknown for us). When Switzerland had not the wish participating - Goebbels said - then this would be up to them, but there will be only economic disadvantages for them (well, these tones we know also from our days!). Goebbels said that with the time also Swiss population would understand the new beginning time (also this prophecy we know from our present days). Reading the protocols from the general meetings from leading Swiss industrial companies, and reading the claims of the associations of economy, and reading the claims of the representatives of the labor unions of those times, there is an astonishing adaptive tone and the words are remembering to the new and to the latest times of today. But decisive is - and this is the wonderful fact - that not one of these "decisive" voices could push itself through. The will for resistance in the Swiss population was too strong.

(orig. in German:
18. Aber auch ein Teil der führenden Kreise der Wirtschaft forderte damals die Anpassung an die uns umgebende Grossmacht, eine sofortige und stramme Ausrichtung an das sogenannte "neue Europa" (wie oft wurde doch in der Geschichte und - auch heute wieder - mit einem "neuen Europa" hantiert). Viele Wirtschaftsführer glaubten Propagandaminister Goebbels, der am 25. März 1941 verkündet hatte, die von Deutschland angestrebte Neuordnung Europas biete jedem Staat nur Vorteile (auch diese Schalmeien kommen uns nicht unbekannt vor). Wünsche die Schweiz nicht mitzumachen - so Goebbels - sei das ihre Sache, werde aber zu ihrem wirtschaftlichen Nachteil ausschlagen (wer kennt denn diese Töne nicht aus heutigen Tagen!). Allmählich werde auch das Schweizervolk die anbrechende Zeit verstehen (auch heute kennt man solche Prophezeiungen). Liest man die damaligen Protokolle von Generalversammlungen führender Schweizer Industriegesellschaften, liest man die Forderungen der Wirtschaftsverbände, aber auch der Vertreter der Gewerkschaften aus dieser Zeit, erstaunt der anpasserische Ton und erinnert in der Wortwahl an neue und neueste Zeiten. Ent- (S.6)
scheidend aber ist wieder - und das ist das Wunderbare - keine dieser "massgebenden" Stimmen konnte sich damals durchsetzen. Der Widerstandswille blieb bestehen.

There was an "appeal of 200", the appeal of Swiss industrials for an adaption of Switzerland. But they could not posh themselves through. There was also a first outline of the speech of General Guisan on the location of Rütli with the project of an adaption of Switzerland - but could not be realized either. But there were realized many other actions for the Third Reich:
-- there were sanitary missions of the Red Cross for the Wehrmacht during the Russian Campaign
-- there were gold transactions
-- there were auctions
-- there were sellings of robbed stocks at the bourse in Zurich
-- there was the obscuration in favor of the Third Reich (violating any neutrality: Neutral country has to mark it's border lines!)
-- free credit for the Third Reich
etc. etc.

And certain Swiss military members like Bircher even wanted Swiss Army as a part in the Russian Campaign. All this is concealed in the speech of Mr. Blocher - which is probably written by  lying "historian" Mörgeli. And Swiss saying in the population was: During the day we work for Hitler, and during the night we pray for the allies...

-- also "U.S.A." were stone-hearted and often antisemitic against Jews - and Swiss population was stronger than Swiss government Federal Council who was closing the borders at the end of 1942 completely:

Quotation:

<Point 19: It is hardly understandable why the states of the world of those times were so stone-hearted and cruel to the Jews. Only few have a reason to point on the others: In the book about Jew savior from Saint Gallen, Paul Grueninger from 1993 can be read: "Heinrich Rothmund from Federal Migration Department was collaborating with Swiss Israelite Community Federation and with many Social Democrat police chiefs 'in a very loyal way' as it can be read in speeches and in letters from those years."

There was a refugee's conference in 1938 in Evian [in France near Geneva] under the presidency of the "U.S.A.", and there was no concrete result because no state wanted the Jewish refugees. There was a ship "Saint Louis" with over 900 mainly Jewish refugees coming to Florida in May 1939 and the coastal police of the "U.S.A." was rejecting the ship so the captain had to go back to Europe and the passengers were mostly murdered later by the Nazis. In 1940 Swiss consul from the "U.S.A." in Berne was reporting that in open "America" almost the half of the "Americans" were sympathizing with the anti-Semits. In 1942 the "American" senate was rejecting a project admitting 20,000 Jewish children saving them from the gas chambers [tunnel systems, mass shootings, epidemics, secret deportations to the Gulag]. Switzerland in those times had 29,500 Jewish refugees.

Sweden was geopolitically in a really better situation and had only 12,000 Jewish refugees. Switzerland had accepted more than the typical emigration countries Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa had together. But Switzerland also had rejected about 30,000 Jewish refugees. Refugee policy of Switzerland which is analyzed and reported in different publications is no glorious chapter of it's history. Switzerland unfortunately was no special case in this question! (It's just not so good when one does not want to be a special case). Switzerland unfortunately was in good company.

Here all other states have their bad history. But there was something astonishing: In the population - which was taking notice only late from these measures [that the borders were shut at the end of 1942] - in the churches, in the political parties (from the right to the left) there was a resistance coming up against this refugee policy of the authorities. The outrage from the side of the population was so powerful that the Swiss government was forced to loosen the closing of the borders.>

(orig. in German:
19. Es ist schwer verständlich, weshalb sich damals alle Staaten der Welt den Juden gegenüber hartherzig und grausam zeigten. Wenige haben hier Grund, mit dem Finger auf die andern zu zeigen: Im Buch über den St. Galler Judenretter Paul Grüninger von 1993 steht: "Heinrich Rothmund und die Eidgenössische Fremdenpolizei arbeiteten mit dem Schweizerischen Israelitischen Gemeindebund und mit vielen sozialdemokratischen Polizeidirektoren 'aufs Loyalste' zusammen, wie in Reden und Briefen aus jenen Jahren immer mal wieder geschrieben steht."

Die Flüchtlingskonferenz von 1938 in Evian unter amerikanischem Präsidium verlief ohne konkrete Ergebnisse, da kein Staat die Flüchtlinge aufnehmen wollte. Dem Schiff "Saint Louis" mit über 900 hauptsächlich jüdischen Flüchtlingen wurde im Mai 1939 das Anlegen in Florida durch Küstenwachboote der USA verwehrt; der Kapitän musste nach Europa zurückkehren, die meisten Passagiere wurden später durch die Nazis umgebracht. 1940 berichtete der Schweizer Konsul aus den USA nach Bern, sogar im offenen Amerika sympathisiere fast die Hälfte der Amerikaner mit den Antisemiten. 1942 verwarf der amerikanische Senat eine Vorlage, welche 20'000 jüdischen Kindern die Rettung vor den Gaskammern ermöglicht hätte. Die Schweiz hat damals 29'500 jüdische Flüchtlinge aufgenommen.

Schweden, in einer unvergleichlich besseren geopolitischen Situation, nur deren 12'000. Die Schweiz hat mehr aufgenommen als die typischen Auswanderungsländer Kanada, Australien, Neuseeland und Südafrika zusammen. Aber die Schweiz hat auch ca. 30'000 jüdische Flüchtlinge zurückgewiesen. Die Flüchtlingspolitik der Schweiz, die ja in verschiedenen Publikationen ausführlich geschildert ist, ist kein Ruhmesblatt in ihrer Geschichte. Die Schweiz war leider in dieser Frage kein Sonderfall! (Es ist halt nie gut, wenn man kein Sonderfall sein will.) Sie fand sich leider in "guter Gesellschaft".

Hier haben alle Staaten ihre unrühmliche Geschichte. Aber es geschah Erstaunliches: Im Volk - das erst später von diesen Massnahmen erfuhr -, in den Kirchen, in den Parteien (von rechts bis links) erhob sich augenblicklich Widerstand gegen die Flüchtlingspolitik der Behörden. Die Empörung von Seiten des Volkes war so mächtig, dass der Bundesrat gezwungen war, die Grenzschliessung wieder zu lockern.

All is right with it but there are again things left out. For example there were many denunciations: Nazi Swiss were denouncing Swiss who sheltered Jewish refugees etc. And the denouncers were rewarded. Switzerland was a Nazi country. There was not one single attack against the railway lines against the eternal marching-through with railway transit passing the alps. There was not one single attack to a Nazi German institution in Switzerland. And there was also hardly any manipulation of armament parts as it was normal in Germany by the forced workers from eastern Europe etc. There was hardly any resistance in Switzerland. Mental resistance - what is this? In fact it is nothing!

-- there was a time with hard work, austerities, persistence and constancy:

Quotation:

<Point 20: There is nothing to lie: Also when some decisions were wrong, also when the behavior of some persons was very dubious and adaptive - as a whole Switzerland of these times earns it's respect, esteem and admiration for it's policy [with free credit for the Reich?]. There is nothing to excuse [!!!] - to the contrary: Swiss population was fighting so Switzerland was not in any war or occupied by foreign troops, was bewared from death, hunger and misery, working hard, with deprivations, with perseverance and with constancy. The state's government did the following important things:

-- going back to the guideline to an integral, this means complete neutrality
-- keeping the democratic order [when all were heading to Berlin in 1940?]
-- decisive defense preparedness [when the army retired to the Alps from August 1940 to 1944?]
-- installing a war economy which had it's main character with the short words: "prevention, welfare, work and bread"
-- with a controlled commercial system according to the principles "relations in foreign business to all sides" by reasons of neutrality and by reasons of supply and also by reasons of exportation policy [to all sides when there were only Nazi territories around Switzerland 1940 to 1944?]
-- the entrenchment of these guidelines in the population resulting with an absolute will of persistence and defense.

To claim that the decisive policy of defense was a failure, considering the bad situation of these days, can only say somebody who is self-righteous, hypocritical and is believing in a moralist way not having committed any fault himself, and who never had to take heavy decisions. This has - together with the extraordinary performance of our ancestors - to counter the loud attacks when one wants to defend the historical facts and values of the Swiss state.

(original in German:
20. Es gibt nichts daran zu rütteln: Auch wenn einzelne Entscheide falsch, das Verhalten einzelner Personen damals fragwürdig und anpasserisch war - im gesamten verdient die damalige Schweiz Respekt, Hochachtung und Bewunderung für ihre Politik. Hier gibt es nichts zu entschuldigen - im Gegenteil: Das Schweizervolk hat die Verschonung vor Krieg und fremder Besetzung, vor Tod, Hunger und Elend errungen in harter Arbeit, mit Entbehrungen, Durchhaltewillen und Standhaftigkeit. Von Seiten des Staates waren ausschlaggebend:


-- die Rückkehr zur integralen, d.h. vollständigen Neutralität
-- das unbedingte Festhalten an der demokratischen Ordnung
-- die entschlossene Verteidigungsbereitschaft der Armee
-- eine Kriegswirtschaft, die geprägt war von der knappen Formel: "Vorsorge, Fürsorge, Arbeit und Brot"(S.7)
-- ein kontrolliertes Handelssystem nach den Grundsätzen "Aussenhandelsbeziehungen nach allen Seiten", sowohl aus Neutralitäts- und Versorgungsgründen wie auch aus exportpolitischen Rücksichten
-- die Verankerung dieser Maximen im Volk und der daraus resultierende Durchhalte- und Verteidigungswille.

Die entschlossene Verteidigungspolitik generell als Versagen anprangern, kann angesichts der damaligen schwierigen Situation nur, wer selbstgerecht, heuchlerisch und moralistisch glaubt, selber keine Fehler zu machen und wer nie schwierige Entscheidungen zu treffen hat. Dies ist - zusammen mit der ausserordentlichen Leistung unserer Vorfahren - den lautstarken Angriffen entgegenzusetzen, falls einem an den geschichtlichen Tatsachen und dem Wert eines schweizerischen Staates gelegen ist. (S.8)

But let's see also this:
-- for the internees there were real concentration camps in Switzerland with fence and with ward towers
-- the internees had to perform bonded labor, were building new mountain streets in the Alps, for example in central Switzerland, and memorial plates were fixed for them, but then the memorial plates were taken off and so on, and
-- there were penalties without end because of little faults of Swiss people who partly really were suffering hunger.

In a certain way all the praise does not match. Nazi SVP has just no sociology in their policy. Critics are NO self-righteous hypocritics. And when Mr. Blocher is speaking about the "performance of our ancestors" then this seems really a little bit self-righteous because his grandfathers were Germans and his family was on the Germans side during WWII and had nothing to do with the foundation of Switzerland at all. But from his family nobody is NEVER telling anything. In some way there is concealed much in this case...

There is one lie and one more and one more - uttered by this propagandist Christoph Blocher.

Chapter 2: About so called "reprocessing" of history (orig. German: II. Zur sogenannten "Aufarbeitung" der Geschichte)

Here Mr. Blocher is doubting the independence of the commission of historians in Switzerland in the meaning that for example historian Tanner had been a secret communist because he had written something about Marxism in one of his works (p.9).

But when we see the huge number of lies in the speech of Blocher which was probably written by liar Mörgeli one can see where the truth is to have - for sure not with Mr. Blocher.

Chapter 3: about self-righteous, hypocrites and other moralists (orig. in German: III. Von Selbstgerechten, Heuchlern und anderen Moralisten)

Jewish organizations with their leaders Singer and Bronfman etc. were claiming for the compensation for the robbed Jewish bank accounts. And now Blocher said: This is only a claim for money, not for moral, but for bucks. There would dominate a "hypocratic self-righteousness", and the situation of the former times is never considered.

And then Blocher is making it's propaganda against the moralists:

All in all Switzerland had the mission to

Quotation:
<keep the democratic form of the state of Switzerland without any change, and this was fulfilled. This is a high moral. This counts! This earns respect and adoration. When Switzerland had gone the way of the today's "moralists', then Switzerland had - with perhaps 100,000s dead people - been eliminated, but the moralists had kept their clean slate. And this is immoral!> (p.10)

(orig. in German:
"demokratische Schweiz unversehrt zu erhalten, erfüllt. Das ist moralisch hochstehend. Das zählt! Das verdient Respekt und Bewunderung. Wäre die Schweiz den Weg der heutigen 'Moralisten' gegangen, wäre sie damals - mit vielleicht Hunderttausenden von Toten - untergegangen, aber diese Moralisten hätten ihre reine Weste gewahrt. Und das ist unmoralisch!" (S.10)

Propagandist Mr. Blocher wants to determine what "counts" and what does "not count"? Well, in this way one cannot make history. And with this statement he definitely has made his coming out as a betrayer in the case of presentation of history. Well, what did the Swiss Nazi government (Federal Council) since 1944? After the conference of Strasbourg in 1944 he was organizing for all big Nazis their flight to South "America", also in 1946 yet, and at the same time they kept their "clean slate". Did anybody tell anything about "moral"?

Then Mr. Blocher means that it had not been possible for Switzerland to keep a clean record from the time of WWII from 1939 until 1945. This would not have been possible with the barbaric regimes around Switzerland.

Well, alone the military protection of the railway lines for the transit passing the Alps is help enough for such a barbaric regime which had the goal occupying Middle East and Palestine coming from Africa catching all Jews living there. Propagandist did simply not mention this...

-- Mr. Blocher does not want to hear any apologize:

Quotation:
<It also corresponds to the moralists that they are apologizing for all possible things; the lightest form of apologize is going on apologizing for things one had no responsibility nor competence. Thus one can really show one's clean slate. For the deeds of our fathers and grandfathers, and the war generation can easily apologized. But there is nothing more with this than humiliating and hurting those who had a big responsibility in those time, and this is indifferent to the moralists.

(orig. in German:
Es entspricht den Moralisten auch, dass sie sich für alles mögliche entschuldigen; am leichtesten geht dies, wenn man sich für Dinge entschuldigen kann, für die man weder verantwortlich noch zuständig war. So kann man seine blütenweisse Weste noch besser zur Schau stellen. Für die Taten unserer Väter und Grossväter, für die Kriegsgeneration lässt es sich leicht entschuldigen. Dass damit aber nichts anderes getan wird, als diejenigen, die damals schwere Verantwortung trugen, zu erniedrigen und zu verletzen, ist den Moralisten gleichgültig. (S.11)

Well, Mr. Blocher should apologize for his sins of omission in this speech, but it can be supposed that this text was written by the big liar and "historian" Mörgeli and Blocher did only read it. All in all this "clarification" is not coming far respectively the word "clarification" in the title is already a big lie, as almost all in the Nazi-SVP is a big lie...

Chapter 4: There is a new disc (orig. German: IV. Die neue Schallplatte)

Now the speech claims that the different sides of 1997 would only "make their profits" with the new "accounting for the past". Some groups wanted just to give up the sovereignty and the neutrality of Switzerland, reduce people's rights, give more power to the leading upper class, and government member Cotti claimed that this attack from the "USA" would be a punishment for the solo run of Switzerland and it's rejection of EU and of EEA. Blocher means, when the argument of the "big economic advantages" would not be attractive any more for an accession to the EU, then the political propagandists have to find new arguments, and this is Cotti.

The lecture also claims that any other collaboration of any other neutral state is never mentioned. Swiss Government (Federal Council) even means that he would not be capable to defend Switzerland from the attacks of JWC from the "U.S.A." and from the attacks of the Jewish Agency from Israel, because Switzerland would be alone and would not be a member of the EU (p.12).

Chapter 5: What's to do? (orig. German: V. Was ist zu tun?)

According to Mr. Blocher it's not clear yet what about are the claims of JWC from "U.S.A.".

There are excessive claims from "U.S.A." and they have to be rejected. When left propagandists call this rejection as "antisemitic" then one should not be impressed by these leftest and their propaganda. One has to counter the claims, because only then will be respect. The discussion about the behavior of Switzerland in Second World War is old and not new. But in the 1990s there are not living many contemporary witnesses any more and that's why the high claims by the Jewish organizations would come only now because the defense would be always weaker (p.13).

Good logic of Mr. Blocher - all Swiss banksters and lawyers should keep the robbed Jewish bank accounts. When there are new documents then there are new documents, and when documents were blocked 50 years then they come out 50 years after 1945. This has nothing to do with contemporary witnesses. This is one more lie of Mr. Blocher and big liar Mr. Mörgeli as it seems...

Chapter 6: How Switzerland was managing such situations in former times? (orig. German: VI. Wie ist denn die Schweiz früher in solchen Situationen aufgetreten?)

Switzerland has to make propaganda for more understanding for it's neutrality. Foreign countries have to be taught again and again when the situation is for Switzerland to be neutral rejecting any conflict. This had been in the past and will also be in the future like this (p.14).

Chapter 7: Where can be found these decisive statements today? (orig. German: VII. Wo sind diese entschiedenen Stellungnahmen heute zu finden?)

The decisive presence of Swiss government with neutrality cannot be seen in these days:
-- neutrality is not taken earnest at all
-- in every corner there is a claim for adaption
-- direct democracy and the voter's will are always disregarded more and more
-- Swiss government Federal Council is apologizing abroad for people's votes
-- Swiss government Federal Council wants to "relativize" democracy and neutrality or wants even to make it impossible integrating Switzerland into the EU
-- Swiss government Federal Council has even doubts about the sovereignty of the country.

Therefore the present Swiss government can hardly defend the attacks of the Jewish organizations.

Point 2: Threats of boycott should be absolutely rejected. Who is conceding one time will be subject to blackmail for ever.

Point 3: Funds without owners are not only Jewish accounts. A new agreement can be presented to the parliament.

Point 4: The foundation for humanitarian purposes is private and without any collaboration of the statal authorities and without any tax money of Swiss tax payers.

Point 5: A compensation because of "allegedly wrong Swiss politics in commerce and economy" from 1939 until 1945 has to be rejected. Mr. Blocher does not want to know anything of any collaboration because all this would only be "economy". Mr. Blocher really becomes mad now defining all had been for "surviving"!

Quotation:
<Point 5: A compensation - under what title whatever - for a wrong Swiss policy in commerce and economy during WWII - is out of question. The commercial policy of Switzerland during WWII with the occupied territories of Germany was absolutely legal, and for Switzerland - aside of an armed defense - this was essential for survival. No company of Switzerland which had commerce with those countries has to accept any reproach because of this. All, also worker's unions, Social Democrats, the whole population, were aware that these measures were necessary for the survival of the country. When economy, banks, federal boards or anybody else would have to pay a compensation for this economic policy or had to apologize for it, then this would allow an unjustified critic to the policy of these former times of our country. This would mean that one had to apologize for an economic policy which bewared the population from death by hunger. As there was no other possibility in those times to save the country such a critic or such a compensation would be a treason of our population!

(orig. in German:
5. Eine Entschädigung - unter welchem Titel auch immer - für eine angeblich verfehlte schweizerische Handels- und Wirtschaftspolitik während des Zweiten Weltkrieges kommt nicht in Frage. Die Handelspolitik der Schweiz während des Krieges mit von Deutschland besetzten Gebieten, war nicht nur rechtmässig, sondern für die Schweiz – neben der bewaffneten Verteidigung - überlebenswichtig. Kein Unternehmen der Schweiz, welches damals mit diesen Ländern Handel betrieben hat, muss sich deswegen einen Vorwurf gefallen lassen. Alle, auch Gewerkschaften, Sozialdemokraten, die gesamte Bevölkerung, waren sich bewusst, dass diese Massnahmen für das Überleben des Landes notwendig waren. Würden nun die Wirtschaft, die Banken, der Bund oder wer auch immer für diese Wirtschaftspolitik Geld bezahlen oder sich gar dafür entschuldigen, so käme dies einer unberechtigten Kritik an der damaligen Politik unseres Landes gleich. Dies würde heissen, sich für eine Wirtschaftspolitik entschuldigen, die das Volk vor dem Verhungern bewahrte. Da es damals aber keine andere Möglichkeit gab, unser Land zu retten, wäre eine solche Kritik oder eine dafür geleistete Geldzahlung Verrat an unserem Volke! (S.15)

Well, now Mrs. propagandist Blocher is really mad:
-- transit passing the Alps for the Axis Powers was granted up to April 1945 called essential for survival
-- rocket parts of ABB are defined essential for survival for Switzerland
-- the flight of the big Nazis from 1944 to 1946 passing Switzerland to South "America" is defined essential for survival
-- selling stolen Jewish stocks at the bourse of Zurich is defined essential for survival
-- selling robbed Jewish jewels from concentration camps is defined essential for survival etc.

At this place Mr. Blocher - respectively Mr. Mörgeli who probably wrote this text - are failing completely and are presenting a complete shit to the Swiss population. Vichy government in France was even not so "cooperative" like Nazi Switzerland where 90% of the population turned their heads to Berlin in June 1940.

Point 6. External trade was a precondition for the surviving of Switzerland and was essential for survival, was the "precondition for the survival of our Switzerland" (p.15-16)

with parts for rockets and tanks, with credit without limit for the Third Reich until April 1945, with a transit passing the Alps until April 1945, with an obscuration endangering Switzerland, with auctions of robbed Jewish jewels, with auctions for "degenerated art", with commerce with looted gold until April 1945, with selling of robbed Jewish stocks - "for the survival of Switzerland"??? Blocher and Mörgeli are not more than fools.

7. Enrichments have to be clarified:

Quotation:
<Point 7: When after detailed investigations we should come to the conclusion that Swiss National Bank, other Swiss banks or companies have enriched themselves or did not give back funds to the legitimate owner, then the funds have to be given back to the legitimate owner respectively to their successors. When these owners or successors cannot be found and when there is the conclusion to use such funds in the sense of the victims, so it shall be done. But also this use has to be in proper legal forms of the law and all legal claims have to be clarified. And also such a use has to be with a concluded treaty.

(orig. in German:
7. Wenn wir nach sorgfältiger Untersuchung zum Schluss kommen sollten, dass sich die Nationalbank, andere Schweizer Banken oder Unternehmungen unrechtmässig bereichert oder Gelder nicht an die rechtmässigen Eigentümer zurückerstattet haben, muss das Geld den rechtmässigen Eigentümern bzw. deren Erben ausgehändigt werden. Sind diese nicht mehr eruierbar und kommt man zum Schluss, es sei rechtlich möglich und richtig, dass man solche Zahlungen im Sinne der Opfer verwendet, soll dies getan werden.Auch dies hat aber alles in einwandfreier Form des Rechtes und von Rechtsansprüchen zu geschehen. Und auch solche Verwendungen haben unter Abschluss eines Vertrages zu erfolgen.

Point 8: When there is a foundation for Holocaust victims installed by the order from outside then this foundation has got an element "beyond belief". The Jewish side will always speak of a "guilt" against Switzerland. Additionally Switzerland principally has given money already: In 1946 Switzerland gave 200 million Swiss Francs. In those times this amount corresponded to "8.5% of the federal expenses (!)".

Point 9: When money is spread, then this would be money from "Swiss population":

Quotation:
<Point 9: Whatever the state will do, the government has to consider this: The responsibles are spreading funds of the Swiss population and not their own ones.>

(orig. in German:

9. Was auch immer der Staat tun will, hat er sich vor Augen zu halten: Die Verantwortlichen verteilen Geld des Schweizervolkes und nicht ihr eigenes.

Point 10: Switzerland should not concede because this would only provoke more claims. This had said Mr. Stucki already [during negotiations of Switzerland with the "USA" in 1946 because "USA" blocked Swiss bank accounts in "USA" because of Swiss collaboration with the Third Reich]. And such a hard position is essential for a little state. (p.16)

Mr. propagandist Blocher explaining his version of Swiss history with a map of 1943, March 18, 1997 [16]

Government member Delamuraz claims Switzerland would be extorted

Well, in 1996 and in 1997 during the D'Amato affair somebody spent much money in Swiss newspapers again and again publishing an advertising with the title "We have no guilt" ("Uns trifft keine Schuld"). One can only suppose that the financiers came from circles from SVP or AUNS or other radical right wing parties. Government member Delamuraz claimed all this would be a maneuver and an extortion of Switzerland, and Mr. Blocher supported this meaning. Mr. Delamuraz also claimed that "U.S.A." wanted to destabilize financial center of Switzerland. Quotation:

<Silvester 1996. In two different interviews government member Jean-Pascal Delamuraz (Free Democrats, FDP) is speaking on one side about an "extortion for ransom money", at the other side he is speaking about forces that want to destabilize Switzerland [...] The reproach of Delamuraz claiming an "extortion" is fixing in many heads, not only with Christoph Blocher.>

(orig. in German:
<Silvester 1996. In zwei verschiedenen Interviews spricht Bundesrat Jean-Pascal Delamuraz (FDP) einerseits von einer "Lösegeld-Erpressung", andererseits spricht er von Kräften, welche die Schweiz destabilisieren wollten. [...] Delamuraz' Vorwurf "Erpressung" setzt sich in vielen Köpfen fest. Nicht nur bei Christoph Blocher.>
http://www.hagalil.com/schweiz/juedische-organisationen/gra.htm

Additionally Mr. Christoph Blocher claimed, looted gold would be "national wealth" and gave the order to print a poster plastering it in whole Switzerland with the big word "Extortion?" on which Blocher himself was flipping the bird to "U.S.A." and to Jewish Zionist organizations. Well, this is just a scenery from the beer regulars' table from racist Blocher...

SVP poster of 1997 "Extortion?" Blocher is flipping the bird to "USA" and to Jewish Zionist organizations [x001]

With this understanding of history he was outing himself as a little Swiss boy of a mountain farm, almost even as an alcoholic of the regulars' table. Against these extremist meanings and right wing attacks of other people even demonstrations were organized in Zurich. Blocher was only a goat herder, more he was not...

Anonymous letters and insults and threats - support for government member Delamuraz

In 1996 and 1997 many Swiss people with a national orientation, or with an AUNS orientation, or with an SVP orientation, were writing anonymous letters with insults and with threats, partly with an antisemitic content. About Mr. Delamuraz many reader's letters and comments were written supporting the thesis of an "extortion" and reproaching the "U.S.A." their own war crimes claiming that these criminal "U.S.A." should mind their own business. Antisemitic letters from right radical Swiss people also reached Sigi Feigel, the President of Jewish Community Federation (Jüdischer Gemeindebund der Schweiz, Israelitischer Gemeindebund der Schweiz). Feigel showed some of these anonymous propagandist letters at Swiss TV in the broadcast "View Around" (Rundschau). This was a real shock for the Swiss population because now the Swiss population was taught about real antisemitism and right radicalism in Switzerland which was not only represented by some few "fools".

1997: A book of Harry Zweifel (alias Marcel Huber): "We have no guilt" (orig. German: "Uns trifft keine Schuld")

Militant Swiss resistance against the truth about Jewish funds shown by "U.S.A." and shown by Swiss historians was expressed for example with the book "We have no guilt" ("Uns trifft keine Schuld") written by Harry Zweifel, with his real name Marcel Huber. But this book was polemic with generalizations against Jews and is not allowed in Germany and Switzerland. But it can be read here in the Internet:
ftp://nsl-lager.com/pub/Schriftdateien/Revisionismus/Uns%20trifft%20keine%20Schuld!.pdf

Marcel Huber was a little editor in Lantsch (Lenz) in canton of Grisons.
http://www.hans-stutz.ch/rechtsextremismus/1997/HuberZweifel.html

With his book Huber made a trial to give an answer to the "U.S.A.", but he made so many faults and general reproaches and insults against Jews so the book could be rated right radical. ON the first tree pages he is describing the following for example:

-- Zweifel (alias Huber) claims that "U.S.A." had committed so many war crimes that they had no right to extort Swiss banks
-- Switzerland had a good behavior to the Jews otherwise there would not live any Jew in Switzerland any more (well, but there was a Jewish stamp since 1938 and a Nazi occupation was always prepared with ovens of porcelain factory in Langenthal) (p.7)
-- WJC only wanted to have money and not justice
-- furthermore Zionist Israel was always torturing Palestinians yet instead of guaranteeing a Palestinian state
-- "American" government and Jewish representatives had better made talks with Swiss government privately instead of instigating such a propaganda against Swiss banks
-- Harry Zweifel (alias Marcel Huber) is comparing the propagandists of WJC and of Jewish Agency with "pond contaminators" destroying the mood between Switzerland and "U.S.A." (p.8)
-- Switzerland during it's 700 years of tradition had a direct democracy and "American" democracy would only be 200 years old (but direct democracy in Switzerland was introduced only in 1848!) (p.8-9)
-- "U.S.A." and Israel should learn from Switzerland!

We consider this: parts for rockets and tanks, credit without limit for the Third Reich until April 1945, a transit passing the Alps until April 1945, an obscuration endangering Switzerland, auctions of robbed Jewish jewels, auctions for "degenerated art", commerce with looted gold until April 1945, selling of robbed Jewish stocks - "for the survival of Switzerland"??? Also Harry Zweifel is a fool.

In this style this book was written with many generalizations, lies and half truths. Thus the book is impractical. Criminal "U.S.A." really has to be criticized and should be torn to justice and condemned at Den Haag, but not on the base of wrong data. The real data is just enough with Agent Orange crimes, with the lie of September 11, 2001, with chemtrail contaminations, with uranium bombs, with the organization of drug commerce and with Zionist Israel as a "satellite" against the whole Muslim world. The tribunal against criminal "USA" which are undermined by racist Zionists in big parts is missing until today.

But Huber was not cool enough. Because of his general propaganda against Jews a left clique - probably with Hans Stutz and Iso Ambühl from akdh and antifa - were initiating a process because of racism. Instead of speaking with Huber how the text could be without generalizations and insults so the content could be presented without racism, this Swiss clique of left propagandist was instigating a lawsuit in Ilanz in Grisons. Huber was warned by an employee and was shifting the complete edition to Germany secretly and let it spread there by one of the editions where also unilateral works about Auschwitz were published.

Ward Mr. Meili from SBG / UBS - allegedly with the wrong documents - threats - instrumentalization of Meili by lawyer Ed Fagan - a comparison - "U.S.A." and a car

Christoph Meili with volumes of SBG / UBS [17]

One of the "heroes" of those times during the actions of senator D'Amato and his friends of WJC was a certain ward at high street bank of UBS saving old bank documents from shredding them. They should be shredded instead of the prohibition of the Federal Government (of 1996 one year before). Swiss Socialist press was celebrating Meili in 1997 as a hero, also "U.S.A." and Zionist Israel. But it seems that all was a big lie because the documents were (allegedly!) from the years 1897 until 1927 and had nothing to do with Jewish bank accounts from Nazi times. This fact had been overlooked by Meili and by the media. Zurich prosecution service also overlooked this fact as it seems that Meili had only saved IRRELEVANT documents not important for the Nazi period of Europe - but initiated a penal procedure because of violation of bank secret which is an crime "liable to public prosecution" in Switzerland.
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christoph_Meili

Considering that so many authorities "missed" to control the date of the documents than I rather think that the indication of 1897 to 1927 is a lie.

National and fascist Swiss - may be from Nazi SVP or from other extremist right wing parties - were writing threats of murder now to Meili's family so the Meili family was taking it's flight to the "U.S.A." getting asylum personally given by President Clinton.
http://www.20min.ch/schweiz/news/story/20107868

Lawyer Ed Fagan and senator D'Amato could effect an eased asylum procedure for the "U.S.A.". But then Meili was abused by layer Ed Fagan and in the name of Meili a demand of 2.56 billion dollars was made. In 1998 followed a compromise of 1.25 billion dollars. And the Zurich prosecution service stopped the proceedings against Meili in the same year of 1998.
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christoph_Meili

These 1.25 billion dollars were the amount of about 200 million dollars of 1945 considering the normal interests until 1997. The propaganda for this was simple. Some Holocaust survivors were shown together with senator D'Amato.


Propaganda photo for the claims against Swiss banks with D'Amato, Estelle Sapir (Holocaust survivor) and Christoph Meili [18]

By not cited reasons a separation in the Meili family followed and it seems that Meili remained alone in the "U.S.A.".
http://www.20min.ch/schweiz/news/story/20107868

In 2002 Meili was divorced and claimed that lawyer Ed Fagan had instrumentalized him. Ed Fagan had promised him one million dollar when the compromise with the Swiss banks would work, but Meili indicated that he never had seen ANY money. Other reports say that he had received 750,000 dollars. There was another campaign of Ed Fagan against IG Farben and Meili was also working there. Meili also got a fellowship from Jewish organizations for a study in communication studies which was completed in 2004 in New Jersey.
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christoph_Meili

Other sources mean that this study was incomplete. Meili got "U.S." citizenship in 2005 but remained to be a ward also in the "U.S.A.", and in 2006 he regretted his action of 1997 - what cannot be understood.
http://www.20min.ch/schweiz/news/story/20107868

Meili is the only Swiss person having got asylum in the "U.S.A.". Since then he was publishing videos on YouTube about his life. Midst of January 2009 he reported that he had lost his flat and would live in a car. In April 2009 he came back to Switzerland. He claimed several times that he had been instrumentalized by lawyer Ed Fagan.
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christoph_Meili

Criminal Swiss Nazis having written threatening letters were never catched as it seems. And "American" reports are adoring Meili until today with the indication that he had saved bank documents from Nazi times from shredding...
-- Holocaust Reparations, 1999: http://photo.pds.org:5012/cqresearcher/document.php?id=cqresrre1999032600

Therefore it can really be that the claim that the documents were not from Nazi times was an emergency lie coming from the Swiss banks or from the investigative judge bettering the position of Switzerland to the "U.S.A.". One had to control these volumes. But it can be admitted that they are shredded now...


Jewish representatives and their partly desolate situation 10 years later in 2008

The Jewish representatives came above all fro New York from Jewish World Congress. And since the money was transacted another scandal came up. Lawyer Ed Fagan was not capable to spread this money or only hardly was spreading it, thus the Jewish Holocaust victims had also to file a law suit against the lawyer Ed Fagan. 10 years later Swiss press was making summaries about the events of 1997 and the final balance for the Jewish representatives of WJC from New York was partly a complete destructive one. Ed Fagan for example was bankrupt:

-- senator Alfonse D'Amato, republican "U.S." senator, was not reelected in 1998. His hopes winning Jewish votes with his maneuvers against Swiss banks were not fulfilled. Since then he has a consulting company.
-- Israel Singer, General Secretary of WJC, was always condemning neutrality of Switzerland as a "crime". In 2007 he was dismissed because of peculation of several million "US" dollars.
-- Edgar Bronfman, President of WJC and initiator of the initiative about fortunes without owners in summer 1995 was also dismissed because of peculation in the sector of Mr. Singer. Bronfman's son was not accepted as new president of WJC.
-- lawyer Ed Fagan was ripping a big part of the money for himself. Then he suffered law suits from several Holocaust victims. Since 2005 he was getting into a tangle with a scandal about a call girl ring in Vienna. In 2007 he had to declare bankruptcy in Florida with debts of 9.4 million "U.S." dollars. If he can keep his lawyer's license is not sure.
-- Alan Hevesi was the financial controller of the town of New York and initiated the boycott movement against Swiss banks in the "USA". This was the essential pressure to the Swiss banks to accept the compromise. After this affair he had to resign because of his ill wife who had used his public car for years on the cost of the state.
-- Avraham Burg was the chairman of Jewish Agency and the representative of Zionist Israel. In 2004 he was retiring and in 2008 he was regretting the fight against Swiss banks in 1997/1998.
http://www.20min.ch/schweiz/news/story/20107868


New propaganda against foreigners - this time "U.S.A."

Well, after the scandal about the not distributed funds by the lawyer Ed Fagan the Nazi party of SVP had one more argument against foreigners in it's hands. In this case the "foreigners" were "U.S:A.", and it was not a difficult thing to form an election victory with this.

<<     >>

As long as this Nazi party SVP is existing Switzerland should be consequently excluded and boycotted because one cannot live in peace in this Nazi state of Switzerland.

There is no advertising with criminals.
