Final Solution Redux

The technique is well known for it

succeeded in its mission to destroy its

target as has been well documented not 

only by the countries allied to foil the

more expansive plans of the Third Reich

for world domination but by the perpetrators

themselves, proud of their characteristic

exacting bookkeeping, keeping abreast of

their accomplishments, so secure in their

axis drive to conquest they never imagined

it would all be used at the Nuremberg Trials.

The magnitude of the Final Solution and the

horrors of their ghoulish genocide resonates

today in the tactics and savage protocols of

their successors claiming their intention to

complete what the original Nazis left undone.

The blood libels, accusations, threats, isolation

and exhortations to those once neighbours

of the need to annihilate the outsiders even

those indistinguishable from themselves but

for their culture, ethnicity and religious

devotion translates well in the Middle East

where the successor-inheritors of fascism are

even now replaying the original script.
