I've included my detailed comments below, along with references and educational handouts from Physicians for Informed Consent that further support my comments below. Please vote NO and leave this decision between parents and their health care provider. My name is Kayla Gorman and I am a mother to a 19-month-old and have another baby on the way. The one size fits all vaccine policies and laws, which fail to respect biodiversity and force everyone to be treated the same, places an unfair risk on a minority of unidentified individuals that are unable to survive vaccination without being harmed. Parents can, in partnership with their child’s health care provider, make informed decisions that best suits their family and their own medical history, whether that decision be to fully vaccinate according to the CDC schedule, partially vaccinate, vaccinate on an alternative schedule or not vaccinate at all. Prior to any medical procedure, the U.S.

A mid-level official in a provincial town, Friedrich Kellner kept a secret diary from 1939 to 1945, risking his life to record Germany’s path to dictatorship and genocide and to protest his countrymen’s complicity in the regime’s brutalities. Just one month into the war he is aware that Jews are marked for extermination and later records how soldiers on leave spoke openly about the mass murder of Jews and the murder of POWs; he also documents the Gestapo’s merciless rule at home from euthanasia campaigns against the handicapped and mentally ill to the execution of anyone found listening to foreign broadcasts. This essential testimony of everyday life under the Third Reich is accompanied by a foreword by Alan Steinweis and the remarkable story of how the diary was brought to light by Robert Scott Kellner, Friedrich’s grandson. Robert Scott Kellner discovered his grandfather’s diary in 1960 and has worked tirelessly to bring it to the attention of the world through exhibits at the Dwight D. Eisenhower and George H. W.

    GO TO MASTER INDEX OF WARFARE WHAT IF THEY GAVE A WAR AND NOBODY CAME? FRIEND JOHN R. KELLAM, WORLD WAR II PRISONER OF CONSCIENCE UPDATE, MAY 2012: Despite the fact that he has never smoked, John now has Stage 4 lung cancer and, given the fact that he has reached the advanced age of 94½, has evidently decided that it would be better not to attempt dramatic chemotherapy or radiation treatment. He is at home surrounded by friends and family and is alert, cogent, and somewhat sardonic. Stay tuned. HDT WHAT? INDEX JOHN R. KELLAM PRISONER OF CONSCIENCE GO TO MASTER INDEX OF WARFARE The direct quotations of John R. Kellam herein originated in an interview with Caroline Besse Webster of Canaan CT, a member of the South Berkshire Monthly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers), in Massachusetts during the year 2001. Other historical material are from the “Stack of the Artist of Kouroo” project of Austin Meredith, considered by him to be relevant to the interviewee’s life history, philosophy, and spirituality, resulting in his determination to remain a nonparticipant in any kind of warfare whatever. John says: “I’m far enough along in age so that it is my hope that my experiences might be widely shared. It is important to me whether a generation or two of young men —and women?— can be helped to realize that there are various alternatives to letting ourselves be conscripted into warfare and a lifetime of devastating memories and guilt. Perhaps I can still be a contributor to the educational process.” HDT WHAT? INDEX JOHN R.

  • Germany's High Sea Fleet in the World War
    Germany's High Sea Fleet in the World War by Admiral REINHARD SCHEER Preface and Introduction Preface THE victor has the privilege of writing the story of the war; for one mistrusts the vanquished, because he will try to palliate and excuse his defeats. But we are victors and vanquished at one and the same time, and in depicting our success the difficult problem confronts us of not forgetting that our strength did not last out to the end. Exceptionally tragic is the fate of our Fleet. It embodied the sense of power resulting from the unification of the Empire, a sense which was conscious of its responsibility to provide for the suitable security of our immensely flourishing political and economical expansion. By creating a fleet we strengthened our claim to seapower, without which the Empire must wither away, we remained a thorn in the side of the British, and their ill-will was the constant accompaniment of our growth. The freedom of the seas, which we strove for in line with our evolution, England was never willing to grant, even if it had to come to a world-war on the point. In the four years' struggle which Germany waged against the desire of its enemies to destroy it, the Fleet was able, beyond all foreign expectations, to hold its own, and what is more, it was our conduct of the naval war that succeeded in forcing the stubborn enemy to the brink of destruction. But, nevertheless, we have lost the war, and with the surrender of the German Fleet the expectations of an independent shaping of our destiny have vanished for long enough.

    Georgetown University Law Center Oral History Project Interview with Norman Birnbaum by Louis Michael Seidman August 6, 2014 MS: So, my name is Mike Seidman. Today is August 6, 2014 and it’s just my tremendous pleasure to talk for a second session with Norman Birnbaum about his life and times. The first session was about his years at Georgetown. Today we’re going to try as best we can to cover as much as we can of the rest of Norman’s career. I think it’s just going to be hopeless to do anything like all of this, Norman, and I don’t want to get I don’t want to miss some really important things so I don’t think we’ll proceed chronologically but I do want to ask you a little about your early childhood. You grew up at a time and place, New York in the New York City in the 1930s that’s become legendary, so why don’t you say something about your family, about the neighborhood you grew up in, the schools that you went to and so on. NB: Of course. Well, first let me express my pleasure that you’ve taken the time, Mike, to encourage what hardly needs encouragement, my narcissistic enjoyment about telling these stories. Well I was born, as you know, in 1926. My grandfather had emigrated from Russian Poland in 1898 after serving His Imperial Majesty the Czar and my father was actually born in Irkutsk, in Siberia when he was on garrison duty right before he left the army so my father came as a very small child when my grandfather sent for my grandmother shortly after getting to New York.

  • Pro-Nazi Subversion in South Africa, 1939-1941
    Pro-Nazi Subversion in South Africa, 1939-1941 Patrick J. Furlong One of the least discussed topics of recent South African history is the extent to which the pro·Allied Government of General Jan Christiaan Smuts was threatened by pro-Nazi elements in the first half of World War II. As one Ally after another fell to Hiller's juggernaut. soon 10 be joined by the Japanese onslaught in the Far East. the imponance of South Africa in the overall strategic picture increased leaps and bounds. The safety of Suez as a route to the East was highly questionable by late 1941. as Rommel's Afrika Korps threatened the British position in Egypt, while the Ax.is strengthened its stranglehold on large parts of the mediterranean. Until Russia and the U.S.A. entered the war, South Africa's fabled mineral wealth was naturally also crucial to Britain's surviving a long siege. Even after the Russian entry into the war, Ihe only manageable supply roule for Soviet minerals to the West was via Ihe extremely dangerous passage from Murmansk on the usually icebound White Sea, so South Africa's mineral wealth continued to have strategic importance. The extent of the longstanding interest of the Gennan Foreign Office in so distant a country as South Africa can be gauged from the mass of its captured documentation, which runs to several thousand pages. I Although much official South African documentation remains closed for this period, the papers of individuals such as Smuts. his deputy Jan Hofmeyr or his Minister in charge of internal security, Harry Lawrence.

What began (for me) as a simple intellectual political inquiry soon grew into a larger, much more complicated story containing elements of mob power, personal greed, clan territory and generational xenophobia wrapped within a caul of historical verisimilitude. In short, there was far, far more to the question than I had previously thought possible and the journey lead me in directions that I did not necessarily expect.
