Yes. But I think that CheNey (Comrade Commissar) is the real power and

driving force in the conspiracy. Rummy was in, too. Truth be known,

none of the Nazis in the dock at Nuremberg were any worse. These guys

(including Kondi) are scum.

That's some really good stuff. TY for posting.

Here is a quote from Mein Kampf:

"The fight which Fascist Italy waged against Jewry's three

principal weapons, the profound reasons for which may not of been

consciously understood (though I do not believe this myself) furnishes

the best proof that the poison fangs of that Power which transcends

all State boundaries are being drawn, even though in an indirect way.

The prohibition of Freemasonry and secret societies, the suppression

of the supranational Press and the definite abolition of Marxism,

together with the steadily increasing consolidation of the Fascist

concept of the State--all this will enable the Italian Government, in

the course of some years, to advance more and more the interests of

the Italian people without paying any attention to the hissing of the

Jewish world-hydra.

"The English situation is not so favorable. In that country

which has 'the freest democracy' the Jew dictates his will, almost

unrestrained but indirectly, through his influence on public opinion."
