David Berg's approval of Adolf Hitler

Posted by Reposter on July 03, 2002 at 14:09:06:

On "Crossfire," WG said there was no way to compare Berg and Hitler because Berg wanted to win the world with love and Hitler wanted to take it over with force. However Berg very much approved of Hitler:

"Even with Hitler, it was the Evangelicals who were his staunchest supporters,--The Christians of Germany! Think of that! Because he was for a lot of good things & a lot of the right things, which now as we look back we can see were right. ("Worldwide Insanity!", 2025:37)

Berg also believed God sent Hitler as a "savior" to save the world and kill the Jews:

"Wasn't Hitler an instrument of God's judgment? A lot of these so-called evil men have been just exactly what the people deserved & needed, & in the case of Hitler, particularly the Jews." ("Medusa Touch!", 955:14,15)

"Hitler was either a scourge on the World's sin, or a saviour to try to save them from the Communists, depending on how you look at it! And God didn't stop him until he'd done his part & his damage & just about gotten rid of the World's biggest scourge, the Jews!" ("The Course of History Must Go On!", 2190:3,4)

"He could have gone ahead & conquered Russia too & put an end to Communism if the U.S. & Britain hadn't knifed him in the back, which is what they did to save their Jews. Therefore the World rejected its saviour, in a sense." ("The Sooner The Better!", 2231:46)

In fact, Berg suggested Hitler was "a good man" trying to save the world:

"You know the U.S. Jews & their media, their historical accounts & propaganda are all lies & the exact opposite of the truth! So if you look back on recent history & turn it around so it's just the opposite, then you get the true picture! Maybe Hitler was a good man saving the World! All of them rejected their saviours so now God's Wrath will be heaped on the World because they rejected His solutions.("The God of Empires!", 2095:100,102-104)

And here's the shocker. Not only can Berg be compared to Hitler, but he himself admited he agreed with what Hitler did:

"(Maria: So we would have approved of Hitler's war against the Jews?) His war against Communism, which was led by the Jews, I do approve, and have approved! He was trying to save his people and trying to save Europe! Boy, how they have rewritten history & made Hitler a monster, when he was trying to save the World from Communism! Whoever said we didn't believe in war? I never said it!" ("The Sooner The Better!", 2231:45,47,48)
