Motherhood Crusader fired from German Television

German TV Host and Author Eva Herman Fired for Promoting Motherhood in Germany

Commentary By David Duke

Below are some excerpts taken from Der Spiegel magazine in Germany. It discusses the firing of a popular talkshow host, Mrs. Eva Herman, who simply mentioned in a recent book the historical fact that Hitler intensely promoted motherhood and the family in National Socialist Germany. When she recounted this fact she criticized the National Socialist regime, but no matter. Germany and the whole European world is now under such thought control and lack of intellectual freedom that not a single line is allowed to be written in a positive sense about Adolf Hitler or the Third Reich without destruction of the truth teller’s career, and sometimes even incarceration. Invariably, anyone who dares to say even the slightest positive comments about any policies of the Third Reich, even if they forcefully criticize other aspects, he earns the title of “Nazi.” It is akin to the label of witch or heretic for the freethinkers of the middle ages.

The primary reason Eva Herman was attacked and fired was because of her message of life and family for the German and the European people. The terrible fact is that the European people are being genocided by the destruction of the family and suicidally low birthrates. Combined with massive immigration and intermarriage, these policies are destroying the character of the European people and civilization. Of course, what Eva Herman says is true. Unless German women concentrate more on children and family rather than career, the German people will die out.

The controlled media passionately opposes the demise of any other people on earth. Many Americans and Europeans have “Save Tibet” bumper stickers on their autos. They oppose the massive Chinese immigration and cultural annihilation of the Himalayan kingdom. Other Europeans are very rightly concerned, even to the point of contributing millions of dollars to save every conceivable breed of animal life on our planet. Yet, somehow our unique European character is never presented by the media as something worth preserving. In fact, the wiping out of our beautiful and creative European people is presented as something desirable and positive! Europe and America will have the “blessings” of multiculturalism!

The Spiegel article also repeated the typical anti-German canards of the controlled media. It described the German efforts under Hitler to support the German family and increase the German birthrate as a “program to create a master race of blond, blue-eyed kids.” Although there is nothing wrong with a people wanting to preserve its own characteristics, including the continued presence of blond-haired and light-eyed people in its population, in fact the German Lebensborn program had no requirements for blond hair and blue eyes. Tens of thousands of dark-haired and brown-eyed German mothers won commendation. Many of the German leaders themselves had dark hair and dark eyes. Even Hitler had dark brown hair. These kinds of distortions are meant to divide the White race, and to alienate dark-haired or dark eyed Whites from our Cause. The truth is that those who seek to destroy our race want to wipe us all out, light and dark-eyed, blond and dark-haired. In fact, they are accomplishing this horrific goal with each passing day. Europeans have every color of hair and eyes, and our not standing together in this crisis of existence is nothing short of insanity.

People sometimes ask why I so frequently bring up the Jewish extremist issue in almost every discussion. The Spiegel article shows how they themselves constantly use this issue to make Europeans feel guilty about our desire for our own survival. Spiegel quotes a “Holocaust survivor” who said that Herman’s comments were, “The worst thing I have heard for a long time.” Somehow, “gas chambers” are inserted to an article about the need to strengthen the European family and increase the European birthrate.

I do believe that hearing about European concern for survival of the European people is the worst thing that this extremist Jew has heard in a long time. Unlike the Jewish extremists, though, we here at DavidDuke.com are not hypocrites. We believe that Jews have a right to preserve their people, but we also believe that so do we! How ironic that extremist Jews support the terrorist, Apartheid State of Israel, and yet constantly condemn Europeans who simply want the survival of the European people and civilization? The media constantly support the idea of a Jewish State for the Jewish people, but condemn the idea of a German State for the German people and they would condemn even a European Union for the European people!

Once you understand why this hypocrisy is possible without public condemnation, you will begin to understand the thought control we Europeans are under worldwide, and why European mankind faces the threat of extinction. The same forces that are able to keep these obvious contradictions from the public mind, are able to brainwash us on a myriad of issues vital to our survival.

Anyone who courageously stands up for any principle that will help us to survive will endure their wrath and hatred. That’s why Eva Herman was fired and maligned, and that’s why folks of European heritage must stand together for our families, our heritage, and our future!

‘MOTHERHOOD CRUSADER’ IN TROUBLE

SPIEGEL ONLINE – September 10, 2007, 12:12 PM URL:

German TV Presenter Sacked for Praising Hitler’s Family Policies Eva Herman, a prominent talk show host and author, has been courting controversy over the last year by saying women should stay at home and bear children. Now she has been fired by the country’s premier TV network for praising Adolf Hitler’s family policy.

German public broadcaster ARD has fired prominent TV presenter Eva Herman for praising Adolf Hitler’s policies on promoting motherhood. Herman, 48, who has stirred controversy over the last year by calling on women to have children rather than focus on their careers, had referred to the Nazi era during a news conference last week to promote her new book on child-rearing:

“It was a gruesome time with a totally crazy and highly dangerous leader who led the Germans into ruin as we all know. But there was at the time also something good, and that is the values, that is the children, that is the families, that is a togetherness — it was all abolished, there was nothing left,” Herman said.

The program director for ARD’s northern division Norddeutscher Rundfunk (NDR), Volker Herres, said Herman had been sacked with immediate effect. “Frau Herman is free to carry on her ‘motherhood crusade’, but this is no longer compatible with her role as an NDR TV presenter.”

He said guests had been cancelling their appearances on Herman’s talk show in response to her public statements on motherhood. Herman was a newsreader for the network’s flagship “Tagesschau” program for 18 years until last year. She has also hosted several other regional talk shows and incensed feminists with her 2006 bestseller “The Eva Principle” in which she argued that Germans would die out if the nation’s women don’t change their ways.

While presenting her new book “The Noah’s Ark Principle — Why We Must Save the Family”) last week, she was quoted as saying: “Values such as family, children and motherhood, which were also promoted in the Third Reich, were subsequently abandoned by the 1968 generation.”

Her comments provoked outrage in Germany. “In Eva Herman’s case, even women’s rights activists want her to return home to her kitchen stove,” said Renate Künast, a prominent member of the opposition Green Party. Herman told Bild newspaper on Monday that she couldn’t understand what the fuss was about. “I expressly distanced myself from the ‘Third Reich’ at several points. One has to put my statement into its overall context. This isn’t about Hitler’s values, but about basic human values, which were abused in the ‘Third Reich’ and later abolished.” “Those who know me and read the book know that I fundamentally reject far-left and far-right parties. It’s a sub-clause that has led to this misunderstanding.”

The far-right National Democratic Party < http://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/0,1518,502487,00.html> (NPD) embraced her comments and even invited her to advise the party on family policy.

“Frau Herman has now experienced first-hand what passes for freedom of speech in this country,” NPD member Andreas Mohlau said in a statement on the party’s Web site. “Why doesn’t NDR approve of Frau Herman praising the protection of mothers in the Third Reich? Are laws to protect pregnant mothers bad just because they were decided by National Socialists?”

The Nazis offered incentives to German women to bear many children and introduced the “Lebensborn” < http://www.spiegel.de/international/0,1518,446978,00.html> program to create a master race of blond, blue-eyed kids. Mothers with three and more children under 10 years old got “honorary cards” allowing them to jump shopping queues and get discounts on their rent payments. Cheap state loans were offered for parents, and there was the “Mother’s Cross” medal: bronze for four children, silver for six and gold for eight.

Author Ralph Giordano, a Holocaust survivor, said Herman’s comments “are the worst thing I’ve heard in a long time.” He told Bild: “Frau Herman should know that what characterized the Third Reich wasn’t how mothers were treated, because they were just meant to produce cannon fodder. What characterized it was the gas chambers.”
