The Reich and Europe

By the Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler

The struggle for Europe’s freedom and future has begun. The Reich and Europe are engaged in the fiercest defensive struggle of this war. Since the days of Stalingrad, the peoples of Europe have known that only the German Wehrmacht is capable of countering the Bolshevik danger. Since these days, however, also grows among them the realization that without the national renewal of the Reich, Europe would have long fallen victim to Bolshevism long ago.

In his proclamation on the 10th anniversary of the National Socialist seizure of power, the Führer once again reminded the world of the deeper meaning and goal of this gigantic struggle of two re-evaluations – “What would have become of the German people and of Europe if on June 22, 1941, the new German Wehrmacht had not held its shield in front of the continent at the last minute? Who wants to believe that the ridiculous guarantees or equally unimportant paper declarations of Anglo-Saxon would have saved the world from invasion by a power which, as American correspondents nowadays which calmly put it today, has had only one goal for 20 years, to invade Europe as it did at the time of the Great Migration or the Mongolian to invade Europe, to destroy its culture, and above all to exterminate its people in order to get slave laborers for the Siberian tundra? Which state would have been able to counter this danger except Germany? Who else could have done it? If since 1941 the biggest part of Europe has been united around Germany in the fight against the dangers of the East, then this can only happen because in 1933 this Germany received the political, moral and material provisions for leading a struggle which today decides the fate of the world. Just as at that time there were only two possibilities within Germany: either the victory of the National Socialist Revolution and with it a planned social construction of the Reich, or the Bolshevik overthrow and with it the destruction and enslavement of all, so today there are only these heathen alternatives: Either Germany, the German Wehrmacht and the countries allied with us and thus Europe are victorious, or the inner-Asiatic-Bolshevik wave breaks over the oldest cultural continent from the East, just as destroying and annihilating as this was already the case in Russia itself. Only unworldly fantasists can seriously believe the Jewish fibber that any British or American paper declaration would be able to put a stop to such a catastrophe of nations.“

In his appeal to the Wehrmacht, Reichsmarschall Goring also spoke of the truly European mission of National Socialism, which sees its world-historical justification precisely in its struggle against the Bolshevist threat, as did Reichsminister Dr. Goebbels in his speech on the occasion of the Führer’s proclamation. “Today, “ the Reichsmarschall stated, among other things, “Germany now stands on the utmost guard for all of Europe. And whether there are allies, friends, neutral or hostile states in this Europe, they must realize and know that if this Germany were to collapse, the Bolshevik would not remain in front of the Swedish or Swiss or any other new country out of inner respect. Bolshevism would at the same moment would crash down upon Europe. Later, these states will say what they know inwardly today. Europe is a stepping stone for Bolshevism and an appendage for the Soviet Union, but both only when there is no German people and no German Wehrmacht. As long as people and Wehrmacht stand, Europe is the rock on which the Bolshevik blood wave will break.”

National Socialist Germany has thus become the strongest firepower of the European continent. The peoples of Europe, faced with the imminent Bolshevik danger, are realizing more and more that the National Socialist revolution is not only a marker in the history of Germany, but within Europe and the world. This realization is reflected in the numerous messages, rallies and statements on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the National Socialist seizure of power. The Italian newspaper “Messaggero”, for example, described the 10th anniversary of the National Socialist seizure of power as follows: “Adolf Hitler’s National Socialism had made Germany the insurmountable natural bulwark of Europe against Bolshevism“, and this was the highest title of merit that Europe could pronounce on this anniversary of the German rebirth. The Croatian leader Ante Pavelić, writing in the “Deutsche Zeitung in Kroatien”, described the date of January 30 not only as a turning point in the political fate of the German people, but of Europe as a whole. It was not only the beginning of a new epoch for Germany, but also for the other European peoples, indeed for the whole world. The President of the Hungarian House of Representatives, Andreas Nagy v. Tasnedy, stated in “Pester Lloyd” that the National Socialist seizure of power in Europe had ushered in an era that was unique in history, both in its history and in its fateful significance.

The Romanian Deputy Prime Minister Mihai Antonescu also spoke to the Romanian-German Society in Bucharest about the significance of January 30 for Europe. Antonescu stated, among other things, that in the past ten years the German Reich has represented a stronghold of order and a healthy social community, forming at the same time a citadel of order and strength in the heart of Europe against communism. “Today, knowing that the East had prepared to storm Europe, one can appreciate what it meant that the Reich had hindered the spread of dangers and Bolshevism and, as the shield-bearer of Europe, had warded off the tide that had swamped the whole of Europe … Aware of serving a European mission, but also aware that we ourselves would suffer under the Bolshevik rod and the Soviet will of oppression, we defend our soil, our property and lives, our families and our faith. We are proud to be able to make our contribution in this War of Destiny.“

These examples show with all clarity that precisely the realization of the immense danger threatening Europe from the East is only making the process of European unification more difficult. But not only Europe, but also East Asia clearly recognized the world political significance of the National Socialist revolution. For example, the message addressed to the German people by the Vice-President of the Information Office of the Japanese Government, Okumura, on January 30 over Japanese radio states, among other things: “These ten years since the seizure of power by the National Socialism represent a turning point with which no other event in the entire history of mankind can be compared. This world war, which connects the Orient and the Occident, will break the old Anglo-American tradition and their world order and eradicate it at the root.

This world war is truly a turning point in world history that will bring about a moral reorganization of the world. Looking back over the ten years since the National Socialist seizure of power, it is evident that the struggle of the ten years has laid the indestructible foundation stone for the struggle of destiny to establish a world order for the eternal glory of mankind. “ In this message it is clearly expressed that the new Germany is not only the leader of Europe, but also an enormous power factor for the construction of a new world order.

In addition to these voices on the anniversary of the National Socialist seizure of power, a whole series of statements by European statesmen can be cited which also point to the growing unity of destiny of the European peoples in the face of Bolshevism. At a major Falangist rally in Seville, the Spanish Party Minister Arrese declared that today more than ever the Falangists must help to save Spain and the world from the impending danger and to make Europe a fortress against Bolshevism. On the fulfilment of this task depended the future of Spain; for those who believed that a Bolshevik victory would not mean the collapse of all Europe were mistaken. If the dam holding back Bolshevism could not hold, not a single nation on the Continent would be spared the Bolshevik wave. The Blue Division, he said, was not a gallant gesture toward a friendly nation, much less payment for forgotten blood, but Spain’s firm resolve to fight to final victory against the Bolshevik danger. To fight – it is not enough to take a defensive stance only on the surface, it is necessary to save Europe’s unity, culture and civilization. Spain’s mission is to show Europe the common enemy and to urge it as a whole to a new crusade.

On the occasion of receiving a parliamentary delegation presenting the Jarje’s answer to the royal throne speech of October 28, 1942, King Boris again emphasized Bulgaria’s solidarity with the Axis powers. If the future of the world is being forged today, he led i.e. then the Bulgarian people must adapt to all the needs and difficulties that the world imposes on them. United, united and in the name of its national interests, Bulgaria will accept all sacrifices and restrictions with full readiness. Even in France there is gradually a growing realization that only Germany has the power to save Europe from Bolshevism.

The French writer and poet Alphonse de Châteaubriand recently wrote the characteristic Sab in the magazine “La Gerbe”: “Berlin or Moscow, that is the question for France and all of Europe. “ Mussolini once again underlined the Axis’ unconditional will to win in a fundamental speech on the occasion of the anniversary of the fascist militia. In it, the Duce gave above all the only correct answer to the “insane, criminal and puffery dilemma of Casablanca”, as he called the meeting of Churchill and Roosevelt in the West African city. “On this 20th, anniversary, “ he exclaimed, “we answer the nonsensical, criminal and agitation dilemma of Casablanca that we will never yield as long as we can hold a weapon in our hand. “ In this struggle against the Bolshevik-plutocratic world conspiracy, the peoples of Europe, under the unerring leadership of Germany, have joined together in an iron community of destiny. You have recognized the danger that threatens the whole of Europe. The order of the day for Europe today is: mobilize all forces of resistance; Germany has already switched to total warfare in the face of the immense danger from the East. For total war, i.e. the mobilization of all material and moral forces, is the only means of mastering this danger. For this reason Germany has taken a series of measures for the total mobilization of the national force, Norway has followed the example of the Reich. At a German-Norwegian rally in Oslo, which was marked by total war, Prime Minister Quisling announced a new blessing on the introduction of compulsory national service for all men and women. This marks the beginning of the mobilization of all manpower in Norway as well. Quisling pointed out in his speech that Bolshevism and the international Jewish world conspiracy are a total threat to the life of the European peoples, that Europe had never been exposed to a similar crisis. In view of this dangerous development one thing is necessary: the solidarity of the European continent. All nationally conscious Norwegians must therefore “unite with the interests of the European and Germanic community of life “.

In this context, two events deserve to be noted that must also be considered from the point of view of the concentration of forces: the reshuffle of the Italian government by the Duce and the re-election of the President Ryti. The Italian government reshuffle represents a managerial act, which on previous occasions has been called a change of guard, and signifies a consolidation of all forces under the leadership of the Duce. Ryti’s re-election as President of Finland is an impressive proof of Finnish unity, but at the same time it is also a powerful demonstration of the Finnish will for freedom and a commitment to the Finnish people’s defensive struggle against the Bolshevik threat.

The peoples of the new Europe are today more united than ever in a common defensive front against the Bolshevik-plutocratic world conspiracy. The aim of the Soviet Union in this war is the Bolshevization of the European continent. The Anglo-Saxon war against Germany is also proving more and more to be a struggle for the Bolshevization of Europe. England and America, as pacemakers of Bolshevism, have become betrayers of Europe. They, too, will have to fall if Europe is to live. The Reich and Europe are determined to fight this battle until a new January 30 comes as a clear result, namely: the unequivocal victory!
