  • Nazi Secret Weapons and the Cold War Allied Legend
    Nazi Secret Weapons and the Cold War Allied Legend http://myth.greyfalcon.us/sun.htm by Joseph P. Farrell GÖTTERDÄMMERUNG "A comprehensive February 1942 (German) Army Ordnance report on the German uranium enrichment program includes the statement that the critical mass of a nuclear weapon lay between 10 and 100 kilograms of either uranium 235 or element 94.... In fact the German estimate of critical mass of 10 to 100 kilograms was comparable to the contemporary Allied estimate of 2 to 100.... The German scientists working on uranium neither withheld their figure for critical mass because of moral scruples nor did they provide an inaccurate estimate as the result of gross scientific error." --Mark Walker, "Nazi Science: Myth, Truth, and the German Atomic Bomb" A Badly Written Finale "In southern Germany, meanwhile, the American Third and Seventh and the French First Armies had been driving steadily eastward into the so-called 'National Redoubt'.... The American Third Army drove on into Czechoslovakia and by May 6 had captured Pilsen and Karlsbad and was approaching Prague." --F. Lee Benns, "Europe Since 1914 In Its World Setting" (New York: F.S. Crofts and Co., 1946) On a night in October 1944, a German pilot and rocket expert by the same of Hans Zinsser was flying his Heinkel 111 twin-engine bomber in twilight over northern Germany, close to the Baltic coast in the province of Mecklenburg. He was flying at twilight to avoid the Allied fighter aircraft that at that time had all but undisputed mastery of the skies over Germany. Little did he know that what he saw that night would be locked in the vaults of the highest classification of the United States government for several decades after the war.

  • Luigi Romersa: Biography of a War Correspondent Luigi Romersa
    Luigi Romersa: Biography of a war correspondent Luigi Romersa, journalist and author, had a career throughout most of the twentieth century, even until the beginning of the new millennium. The ups and downs of his life and his work are the subject of the present study: in his reportage from the front lines war, he offers us a disenchanted and objective testimony on the course of the conflicts. Surely fate was favourable in allowing him to be a direct witness of some of the crucial events that determined the course of history. Later in life he continued to write about a past that many wish they could erase. He did it with determination and without bias. Some episodes he appeared to his contemporaries reported the product of a "visionary." Only recently, thanks to the opening of the archives and dissemination of time, it was found that his work corresponded to reality and was not the product of journalistic speculation. The first chapter is devoted to the first period of journalistic formation until 1939. Luigi Romersa was born in Boretto, province of Reggio Emilia, on July 5th, 1917, into a family of peasants. He majored in Law at the University of Parma. In 1937 his journalism career began while Romersa was still a college student, in collaboration with the «Gazzetta di Parma». Integrated into the fascist regime, he followed the events of the war as a war correspondent for several newspapers including «Il Corriere della Sera» and «Il Messaggero». He was a war correspondent on the African front until the fall of Tripoli, when he returned with a mandate to deliver an important military relationship to Benito Mussolini in which he earned the respect due to the clarity of the information provided on the progress of the war in Africa, beyond the logic of political expediency and propaganda.

  • The Memory of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the Peaceful Atom (1963-1967)
    Laura Ciglioni Italian Mass Media and the Atom in the 1960s: The Memory of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the Peaceful Atom (1963-1967) The “Atomic Age” In the early 1960s, Italians were often regarded, both by international observers, like the US Information Agency (USIA), and by Italian ones, as not very well informed about, nor much aware of, the complexities of nuclear issues and crises – especially in comparison with the peoples of other European states, in particular the West Germans, the English and the French. A 1964 USIA survey, for example, reported that, as a whole, over 70 per cent of Italians either had wrong ideas about the Partial Test Ban Treaty or ignored its existence altogether. Even the Cuban missile crisis seemed to be known only to six out of ten interviewees, while the proportion was eight out of ten in France and in the United Kingdom, and almost nine out of ten in West Germany.1 “Atomic aware- ness”, as well-known philosopher Norberto Bobbio later remarked, had yet to be built in Italy at the time, to the point that pondering over the “atomic condition” – as Bobbio himself claimed already in 1961 – should have been the main concern of philosophers themselves,2 in the hope of reaching out to the men and women rightfully living sub- merged in the “realm” of the “everyday”, suppressing the very thought of atomic death.3 This did not mean, however, that Italians were not afraid of the bomb – in fact, USIA surveys from the same period revealed that, on the contrary, they were particu- larly sensitive to the issue of nuclear weapons and favored disarmament, even general and complete, in very high numbers.
