The New European World Order
A central theme however, ran through Hitler's politics; and that theme is still extant. Hitler saw the domination and unification of Europe as a centrally desired goal: with Germany and the Third Reich at the forefront of leadership and control. Many are aware of the Reich's desire to cleanse Europe of what they considered to be "inferior blood": the lame, the mentally- impaired, the Jews, Gypsies (Roma & Sinti(sp) 'bolsheviks'/political prisoners and others in a process focused primarily on the European Jewish population called, "Judenrein". His concept of a "Master Race" (see Eugenics would then essentially replace every other 'root race' in a nordic utopia. The Third Reich had the followig goals for Europe and the Aryan peoples:
The unification of Europe is being met with strong feelings on both sides: those in favor see major benefits: the Eurodollar allows ease of business transactions and opportunites and the facility of foreign markets; opening of borders means less difficulty in traveling; a unified legal system is seen a producing greater justice and consistency; and the confederation of European nations is seen as producing a greater defense for every nation. Not everyone sees the unification process as a good thing. Opponents see the erosion of national borders, defense, and identity. Those looking into the future question the leadership of a multi-nation entity. |
