1918 - Allied forces scored a decisive breakthrough of the Hindenburg Line: World War I.
The Allies called this defensive frontier the Hindenburg Line and the Germans called it the Siegfried Line...Regardless of it's name, this extensive defensive position had held the Allies at bay since 1917.
The entry of the Americans proved too much for the Germans to hold the line, however, and this breakthrough proved to break the Germans.
440 - Saint Leo I, the Great, was elected Roman Catholic Pope.
Leo's greatness is defined in one single event: He was the only man who tamed Attila the Hun.
No one knows how he got the Hun to leave Italy, but he did, which established the power of the Church...And as it turned out, the Church was the only entity strong enough to pick up the pieces of European Civilization after the fall of Rome.
1227 - Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II was excommunicated.
Not only was Frederick excommunicated, but Pope Gregory IX also went so far as to call him the anti-Christ.
What was his crime? He challenged the power of the Church.
1879 - The Meeker Massacre: Dissatisfied Ute Indians killed federal agent Nathan Meeker and nine others.
I can't say I blame the Indians...They should have killed every 'White-man' they encountered.
But they didn't, and eventually found themselves annihilated and/or absorbed instead...Such is the cruelty of history.
1916 - On this day, John D. Rockefeller's wealth made him the first American billionaire.
A billion dollars is impressive in any time, but especially when this billion is put in the context of current dollars: $1,000,000,000 in 1916 = over $20,000,000,000 in 2012!
He made much more before he was through.
1923 - Britain began to govern Palestine under a League of Nations mandate.
It's too bad Turkey became so pathetic, because the Ottomans kept this region in check for the better part of four centuries. They may have done it through oppression, but it's undeniable they did a good job of keeping the Bedouin and Islamic radicals under control...The Brits proved much less capable, and the Americans have done even worse than the Brits.
1941 - The Babi Yar Massacre. Over two days (September 29-30) the Germans killed 33,771 Jewish men, women and children near Kiev: WWII.
An account of the massacre: "There was no question of being able to dodge or get away. Brutal blows, immediately drawing blood, descended on their heads, backs and shoulders from left and right. The soldiers kept shouting: "Schnell, schnell!" laughing happily, as if they were watching a circus act; they even found ways of delivering harder blows in the more vulnerable places, the ribs, the stomach and the groin...Those who hesitated had their clothes ripped off them by force, and were kicked and struck with knuckledusters or clubs by the Germans, who seemed to be drunk with fury in a sort of sadistic rage." - A. Anatoli
The massacre was horrific, but the result of it was even worse.
This was before the Nazi's perfected the 'gas & burn technique,' and most of these Jews were shot to death...A method which was hard on the psyche of the murderers - even the twisted minds of the psychos in the S.S.
The end result was a more 'efficient' and 'humane' ways of eliminating the 'untermenchen'...More humane for the killers that is.
1943 - Adolf Hitler's book 'Mein Kampf' was published in the United States.
Huh?? Check that date out...The book was published while the U.S. was at war with Germany.
I'm sure the publishers sold it under the guise of the First Amendment and anti-censorship...As our brave soldiers died fighting to save Western Civilization from the lunatic who wrote the book.
1965 - President Lyndon Johnson signed the 'Federal Aid to the Arts Act,' establishing the National Foundation on the Arts and the Humanities, out of which came the National Endowment for the Arts.
What an enormous waste of money! No one needs this garbage, and few Americans ever bother to deal with the arts and humanities.
That said, I have nothing against the legitimate arts (plenty of problems with the degenerate arts, though), but either way this should be a private venture not one paid with taxpayer dollars.
1988 - U.N. peacekeeping forces won the Nobel Peace Prize.
This is great...U.S. troops protect the globe, and get nothing but disdain from the world (and many at home), but the clowns at the U.N. get a prize.
We get what we ask for by participating in the 'Circle Jerk Group,' however.
1999 - Vice President Al Gore abruptly moved his presidential campaign headquarters from Washington to Nashville to get "out of the Beltway and into the heartland."
Buuuullllllllllll Ssssssssssshhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiitttttttttt!
Al couldn't have cared less about the 'heartland'...He left D.C. because he wanted to get as far away from the ‘stain of Bill Clinton’ as possible.
