Eisenhower's Rheinwiesenlager Camps. Captivity Captive - Syllabus of Prison Without Walls

This subject is so offensive and frightful if taken seriously that when uttered my wife said she would not talk to me the rest of the day. The general of these particulars involves a study of the loss of empathy in the Stanford and Milford experiments which trace the loss of empathy from authority or social pressure to Eisenhower's German POW starvation camps up and down the Rhine river. This was starvation on a mass scale. The government says there were  8 or 9 thousand casualties, but it was a hundred times that. They kept them without shelter in an open field all winter. Forget Eisenhower, look at the real statistics of the Vietnam and chemical ops, or in Central America of that same government manufacturing atrocities in Iraq to justify waterboarding hundreds of times the same man, to make you safe from terrorism, you who are the victim of the many times Hiroshima/Nagasaki radioactive blasts conducted in your own country by that same government. It is impossible for its citizens to realize that this same terrorism invented so many more atrocities that Eisenhower looks small. Many on the Rhine died from, dehydration and exposure to the weather, because no structures were built inside the prison compounds, like Andersonville Prison in 1864".[4] Bacque charges that "the victims undoubtedly number over 800,000, almost certainly over 900,000 and quite likely over a million., -Rheinwiesenlager (German: [ˈʁaɪnˌviːzn̩ˌlaːɡɐ], Rhine meadow camps) were a group of 19 camps built in the Allied-occupied part of Germany by the U.S. Army to hold captured German soldiers at the close of the Second World War. Officially named Prisoner of War Temporary Enclosures (PWTE), they held between one and almost two million surrendered Wehrmacht personnel from April until September 1945.the enjoyable irony of this is that Eisenhower was so "horrified" at the the German camps like Ohrdruf  "Seeing the Nazi crimes committed at Ohrdruf made a powerful impact on Eisenhower, and he wanted the world to know what happened in the concentration camps."

Ike was bound to repeat, doubly so since he was of the same genealogy as the prisoners he starved, moral outrage you see among the pious, a feeling that abandoned him later when he negotiated with the Aliens. After his visit, Eisenhower cabled General George C. Marshall, the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in Washington, describing his trip to Ohrdruf:[2]

... the most interesting—although horrible—sight that I encountered during the trip was a visit to a German internment camp near Gotha. The things I saw beggar description. While I was touring the camp I encountered three men who had been inmates and by one ruse or another had made their escape. I interviewed them through an interpreter. The visual evidence and the verbal testimony of starvation, cruelty and bestiality were so overpowering as to leave me a bit sick. In one room, where they were piled up twenty or thirty naked men, killed by starvation, George Patton would not even enter. He said that he would get sick if he did so. I made the visit deliberately, in order to be in a position to give first-hand evidence of these things if ever, in the future, there develops a tendency to charge these allegations merely to 'propaganda.'
The turn in vengeance against your own especially, because they should know better, the 73 million Trumpers, is proven again and again, replacing the oppressors as victims in  law and war, depending on the politics. Imagine what John Kerry will do in the Biden admin after going the night of the 2016 election to Antarctica!  Chew on that.. Pussy cat what did you there/  Looking for chocolate bar/Official reports were that 9000 died. But you know that all official reports are lies. see Tom Horn the evil gene and lucifer effect,

Introduction

 We infer the regime of the prison without walls from those with. These analogies, such as turning in your neighbor who does wear a mask has too large a group gathered, or brutalizing them for being a Trump supporter, calling them every epithet that truly belongs to you, esp. racist, you old Obama Clinton deplorable gunner, god religion thing. All these without walls happen within. We don't want to overlook such treks as the Exodus and the march of captivity in Babylon or the Long trail of tears of the Cherokee. The prisons and the prisoners of war are everywhere, the Armenian extermination, the Biafra, and Bushman, on and on, these are precursors of the digital overlord and all the social behaviors of shaming, doxing, outing etc. among epidemic proportions of missing persons.

Just like the camps of Abu Ghraib threw together people unconnected, in all the WWII camps the Stalags threw together Levinas hid his philosophy in notebooks and waist gunner kids from Texas  kept a secret history of the camp on cigarette papers. It is only the time and place and intensity that determined how radicalized these got, whether the Nazis or the Americans. But with any luck you could get a gulag or mahogany camp, an Argentine military camp.

One of the human features that emerges is that the man never quits so we have records and hold in our hands the works they have written in the camps and the towers, Raleigh's The History of the World, Bunyan, Pilgrim's progress, Levinas Existence and Existents, Frankel: "eventually I began to reconstruct the manuscript which I had lost in the disinfection chamber of Auschwitz, and scribbled the key words in shorthand on tiny scraps of paper. 34  In the middle of escape he runs back to the mud hut to get his essentials, "my food bowl, a pair of torn mittens 'inherited' from a dead typhus patient, and a few scraps of paper covered with shorthand notes (on which I had started to reconstruct the manuscript which I lost at Auschwitz. 58 And all up and down the ladder of existence to Carl Roland Karlson who wrote on cigarette papers his history of survival

Pentonville,  the new prisons are the Getty museum and every castle of 

 runaway and captive children are wholesaled to the bidders. some 900,000 missing a year. among the 90,000 children of the Boy Scouts, the orphanages of Indian children in Canada. the missing the national parks, the hundreds of thousands abused by priests, the satanic families networks, the CIA blackmail houses for the elite

B. Traven Camps in the Jungle, mahogany camp, debt-slavery in the montería,  in Der Ziegelbrenner (The Brick Burner), “He loved to tangle things up,” Mrs. Lujan said. ”In a certain sense, it was a defense, a form of vengeance. He would tangle people up and then laugh about it. He invented many lies and loved it when people made mistakes.” ”When I suspected something and asked him about it, he would get furious,” she recalled. ”He used to say, ‘Nobody should ask anyone else about anything, because questions only oblige one to lie.’ ”

Levinas was a POW in the French army as an interpreter, so not sent to extermination camps -  Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit was in one of the prison camp's reading room. Levinas’s 1947 Existence and Existents may be placed alongside other works created in the Stalag system such as Braudel’s The Mediterranean. In a POW camp near Lübeck, where he remained for the rest of the war Braudel drafted his La Méditerranée et le Monde Méditerranéen à l'époque de Philippe II (The Mediterranean and the Mediterranean World in the Age of Philip II), without access to his books or notes and relying only on his memory and a local library.[3] and Messiaen’s Quartet for the End of Time.  the ‘last Kantian in Nazi Germany’ – the dog Bobby – enthusiastically greeted the Jewish prisoners as they returned from forced labour and in doing so recognized their humanity. The experience of the camp was also acknowledged, not without irony at the expense of Sartre and others, in the Preface to Existence and Existents where Levinas presents his book as the result of research ‘begun before the war’ and then ‘pursued and to a large extent written up in captivity’.He was in the camps for five years starting through Auschwitz. His work is full of the psychology of survival to be hoped for. It also always amounts to positive thinking

 Caygill says, -June 1940 the French 10th Army was surrounded by invading German forces at Rennes. Among those captured was Emmanuel Levinas, mobilized as an officer/interpreter in 1939 and now imprisoned as an enemy combatant under the terms of the Geneva Conventions. Levinas was five years in captivity, first at Frontstalags in Rennes and Laval, then at Vesoul, and from June 1942 until May 1945 at Stalag 11B at Fallingbostel near Magdeburg in Germany.

Modern the left was always a facade from wherever to wherever, that's why Koestler compiled The God That Failed. Ignazio Sileone, Blood and Wine all the Marxist and semi dogmatic novels were a ruse of the left. The right produced no literature, unless you count Ayn Rand. The right was a fantasy of the left. the Knights Templer used as a scapegoat for their own sins, because neither one were left and right, they were pedophiles and cannibals that hid in tunnels under the Getty Museum and a thousand places never visited, for sure. That sounds so extreme, but it was largely the CIA that shelled the concluding peace talks in Kabul to prevent them finishing. ISIS was an invention of the CIA to justify neutralizing the mid-East that Trump got in the way of. Was that right or left? Doesn't matter, both are part of the Hegelian dialectic to produce the unknown Order.

Introduction

More and more I look on travel pieces as fictions, explorations before the fact, if we walk, “not a prisoner like the Czech.” The prison metaphor, the demeaned human metaphor are all the same whether the Pope declares the alien a brother and the UN joins with science. Who exactly does than leave in opposition? These would be trucked off. The blind call that cynical, but the blind are too busy for the details in the sky above and in the earth below. We would opt only for consciousness of the time armed with faith, as in three YouTube events where The True Human, Prophetic Confirmations and The Death of the Imagination occur.

It looked like this was going to be turned into Altered Sky and the Weather Report Wars, unwritten as yet, as a look at tomography, topography and atmospherics assuming that modern consciousness is linear and two dimensional, that literature and furniture are not thought to be one piece any more than the weather, warfare, hybrids and underground bases are, although it will be denied.

We are sidetracked by the staging of events which, while we watch the news broadcast in all its channels, we watch ourselves. Stand behind the events however and they are tragic misdemeanors if not felonies. Every single opinion in the world is wrong and has as its entire purpose to absorb the attention of the many layers of audience. So government, science, the networks, the actors on what they call the stage, the audience, history, philosophy all stand in mutual relation to each other as onion skins, but with no priority, science is not better than ads for Ford, indeed science is an ad for Ford or whatever offers itself. None is more primary than another, except of course in the fantasy/reality the stages project. There the drones rule.

There are all kinds of drones. Remember it is a name for the worker bee incapable of procreation, or creation, that lives in the hive only to fulfill the dictates of the "higher" power queen. This seems to demean bees if we take them as symbolic of ourselves, as bestiaries have always compared the human with the natural world.  We had seen drones among the neighbors spouting shibboleths of modern culture, meaning popular culture, people exercised about sports or fashion. Now the drones in smart phones, traffic cams, email algorithms and the literal sky watch and see. What can’t be seen, or heard, is the broadcast microwave thought patterns. So easy to control the cortex. Look from behind it or above it and it is all the same, a series of stagings where the levels are mutually inclusive of just the one thing: the stage, the actors. Meanwhile behind the scenes puppet masters pull the string. Behind the puppet masters lies the one real thing, which is why we keep coming back to Prufrock, saying, "oh do not ask what is it, let us go and make our visit."

Living conditions underground need to be examined in case the 99 kings have been fools. No better record exists than the kings of Israel and Judah, but China does well, England and Japan. Power exalts and corrupts completely. So while there need to be at least some elders underground just to form a sensible simulacrum of society and tribes, they will be subject to the whims and idiocies of power. As to the individual underground there is none. No running water, no sunlight. The only thing that kept the prisoner of Chillon going was a swallow. The only thing in the Nazi camp for Viktor Frankl was a bird on a stump. The gulags were outside in the snow and cold and air. The undergrounds have no nature so it can be questioned if they have a man. That’s why all would have to be young, real young, cradle size, and lots of women to raise them, but there will be no human rights or hope. These are the drones that concern us most.

The axiom of this thought is that it denies all its shortcomings while practicing them. One imagines these consumed in whatever accepted protocols a person professionally knows, filled with prejudice left and right. It truly does not matter about the rest in a flat surfaced earth with no border, compressed, controlled, but enough of that.  As a model of consciousness it is a scene of huge depth, atmosphere, ionosphere, magnetosphere, the rough 1000 feet above and below the surfaces of the continents and plates and lava streams. The human is like a submersible between. All the documents on this site are meant to explore the staging of the worlds.

Obits: Fayetteville. Dr. Charles I. Brown, Dr. Jack Washington, Archie Johnson, Fayetteville State University,

Archie Johnson, published Uncle Tom Speaks, a tongue in cheek series of broadsides (Voice, (9/1/67) (25 May '67). He traded me teaching him to write for teaching me chess in which he was an Air Force champion. He took me to the technicolor black clubs downtown and to the Fort Bragg PX,  had also been in the Congo evacuating hostages from Stanleyville. In the end his diction became Shakespearean. We visited Archie Johnson the next year, driving to Lumberton from Austin and stayed with him. The mother of his child was just sure I would not show. Dear Andy & Ann                                      June 10, 1971

               Priscilla I were very pleased to hear from you. She grows like America did with the Louisiana Purchase. She helps me keep the monster in the closet—“E.” [his wife, Eroshia]

               You know I was always interested in how Freud got his hands on all that unconscious stuff. He possessed it personally. I mean that at this point it’s quite obvious that regarding how much we psychoanalyze others, their light shines brighter in the “self.” I realize that I’m stepping on my man but truisms seem almost invariably to reign. What Jew that are left, much in vanishing, vanishing – diminutively so. (You were absolutely magnificent at work when you wrote that).

Believe it or not I will finish up in May. Then I will go to Duke for the final crossing over into America who seems to – really for metaphysical reasons – killed in its proclivity to grow. For the love of Priscilla, we must try ineffably to engender the growth sperm into her uterus once again. Because it is our America we must somehow impede the vanishing, that is so indubitable

This business of living is for reasons constantly emerging,, is enough to make all of us overly sedate –with understandably exception—and strive for a Philosophy that is Healthy. Congratulations to the two of you. I didn’t receive anything for Xmas.

I close to a world that shows no signs of vanishing,

familiarly Archie.

I'm after giving homage to friends and Charlie Brown has long need acknowledgment for his friendship and deft guidance when I served as Asst Prof of English there in 67-68. he it was who suggested I get student evaluations when we were terminated. These resulted in some astonishing responses. His office was right around the corner from mine. He had a genial nature, or just liked me, said once i reminded him of his son, but I don't know if he had any. We played tennis once a week on the FSC asphalt courts. He would always laboriously warm up and stretch.

 

Dr. Jack Washington 

Dr. Jack Washington came into my mind this morning as I walked the streets in prayer. I return to find him deceased at 67 after a notable career. He was my student at FSU and had just been through the Newark riots. He said that myself and Paul Roberts (History) completely contradicted everything he knew about the Caucasoid up to then. He had passion and light and another thing I liked about him, he was challenging. He wrote among other works: In Search of a Community's Past: The Black Community in Trenton, New Jersey, 1860-1900. The Quest for Equality: Trenton's Black Community 1890-1965. The Long Journey Home: A Bicentennial History of the Black Community of Princeton, New Jersey, 1776-1976 (2004) (Africa World Press. His daughter, Dr. Dawne Washington, of Brown Girl’s Vision, LLc has continued the legacy of her late father. We played some one and one basketball in the gym at the end of my stay in '68. He missed the first shot so I got the ball and made a consecutive ten in a row from far out. In that game you get the ball back if you make it.  So he said, I'll move you off your spot (at 30 ft) and rolled the next ball to the other side. I made another ten. He couldn't believe it. It provoked his statement above. I think of this because my son emceed a game at his kid's school and before hand I visit, stand at the foul line and take a shot. It only goes 2/3 of the way to rim! God is our refuge and strength. 

Archie Lee Johnson  d. 2008, comes to mind now from Fayetteville of that era, deceased at 63. In Jan of ’68 at he tipped me to himself and a group of six students who were to carry a coffin up the sidewalk of Hay Street as theater. I went downtown to watch from a deli-with big windows as they went past on the other side, very fast, prudent considering the time and place.  He had been in Stanleyville with the air force.  We made a deal that he would teach me chess, he had been a champion in the air force, and I would get him over the grammatical hump. He became a radical too, didn't eat for weeks and weeks, published an underground newsletter, facetiously called, "Uncle Tom Speaks." Archie at that time was practically starving himself to death and was under immense strain, mostly from himself.In the end his diction became Shakespearean.

After being fired from FSC in 68 and landing then at Texas, the next spring we went back for a visit, drove our white MGB the southern route through Biloxi, followed all the way by the police, and stayed with a Archie in Lumberton  On that occasion, also visiting Karl Hillie  I actually went in to visit the president, Dr Rudolph Jones after all that had gone down, 6 white teachers recruited via the Rockefeller grants all fired of a sudden a week before graduation in 68, this from a series of intrigues by counter reformation elements in the student govt I was told of by the Assistant to the president, Charles I Brown  a friend and the last person to seek me out to say a reluctant good by when we had left Fayetteville the spring before. Looking back the intriques and counters are as always a series of mistakes made good by power. President Jones no doubt saw the removal of 6 white teachers as the least painless solution to the problem of the students taking over the administration building the weeks before and seriously challenging his authority. They did keep two M.A.s  because Barbara Meyerson was a favorite of the student pres, and Karl Hillie was borderline infirm. In the executive meetings each teacher was voted on individually. I was told, my wife and I were passed over in silence by the department chair when she was asked what about them? No wonder. One of our number had gotten her stoned at recent party when we had expressly said not to, and she lost it, actively tried seduction. Her novel was called The Devil is a Lonely Man. She had picked the bones of more than one male student.  So I was let go, who later visited students in the homes in D.C. stayed with them in N.C. and visited with the Pres, clearly wild card acts, but otherwise I had never gone to Texas and met the true wife  of fifty years, Eden, with whom I have gone to the ends of the earth and beyond. All this forced me to Austin as the second best position, but it unleashed everything that occurred there.

We had all somehow joined the AAUP, which mandates some minimal standards even for such slight hires off the cuff as we all were, meaning you can’t just importunately fire them without some semblance of due process and we made an appeal and they had issued a slight censure in the Council of Higher Ed bulletin at that time, so when Dr. Jones received me a year later he was a little surprised I would visit him. He said at that time again that he had always appreciated my enthusiasm, but that he wished I had done what I did, presumably the censure, and of course I said the same, I wish you hadn’t done what you did, meaning the firing, so it was a humorous visit too, with some nuance. I thought then the value of the action was to challenge his reputation as Sundown Jones, be off the campus by sundown, as was his reputation. It was a good challenge because it gave some check to autocratic authority and implied some faculty rights. Who but entitled white radical MAs would even think such a ridiculous thing?
