On 29 September 1955, a grainy, black and white photo was shown to CIMELODY-3 for purposes of getting his reaction to the possible veracity of this photo. The photo undoubtedly shows a man who resembles the leader of Germany's Third Reich.
THE NAZI ORIGINS OF DEADLY NERVE GASES
~ Chemical & Engineering News, October 17, 2016
Among chemical weapons, nerve gases are arguably the most nefarious. Trace amounts can wreak long-term havoc on a victim’s nervous system, and high doses can cause painful deaths, typically by asphyxiation.
Nerve agents have been used by armies and terrorists alike. They were dispatched on the battlefield of the Iran-Iraq War, during the Tokyo subway attack of 1995, and more recently on demonstrators in Syria. Despite their infamy, these chemical weapons have a curious history unknown to many people.
Eighty years ago, just before World War II began, nerve agents were invented in Nazi Germany. During the Third Reich, German scientists developed bombs capable of deploying the chemical weapons on the Allies, and the Nazi armed forces secretly stockpiled nerve gas munitions.
From the start of WWII, some in the military were raring to dispatch their nerve weapons “on a very large scale against the enemy hinterland by air strikes.”
But Hitler demurred. Why did Hitler veto their use?
Some historians point to the fact that Hitler had been a victim of chemical weapons—probably mustard gas—during WWI. As a result of this experience, Hitler believed using poison gas on the battlefield was unethical, an incredibly inconsistent position given his directive to use Zyklon B and other poisonous gases to kill millions of concentration camp prisoners.
U-BOAT RUMORED TO HAVE HELPED NAZIS ESCAPE TO ARGENTINA IS DISCOVERED
~ UK Independent, April 19, 2018
A German submarine linked to rumors that Adolf Hitler survived and escaped to Argentina in a U-boat has been discovered – lying wrecked at the bottom of the North Sea between Denmark and Norway.
Submarine U-3523 had been one of a new generation of type XXI U-boats that were able to run more silently and stay submerged for longer than any of their predecessors, with a range that would have allowed them to sail non-stop from Europe to South America.
As such it would have been perfect escape vessel for Nazi gold, high-ranking officials or even Hitler himself as the Reich collapsed at the end of the Second World War.
But researchers pointed out that nobody knows if this was the U-boat’s destination, and nobody knows if the U-boat had valuables or passengers, especially Hitler, aboard in addition to the 58 crew, all of whom perished at 123 meters depth.
The final telegram sent by the submarine, on 5 May 1945, made no mention of Nazi treasure or officials, so it is unconfirmed whether skipper Willi Müller and his crew were carrying Nazi passengers instead of just trying to escape themselves. Further, researchers say this particular vessel may have been a decoy as the day before, German forces in Denmark, Northwest Germany and the Netherlands had surrendered. Therefore, the U-boat was not on a war patrol.
And as for Adolf Hitler, the U-boat appears to have left port five days after 1 May 1945, when German radio announced the Fuhrer’s death.
NEW GLOBAL ANALYSIS FINDS WATER-RELATED TERRORISM IS ON THE RISE
~ New Security Beat, May 8, 2018
Attacking water is not a new terror tactic. Three decades ago, in the midst of Peru’s economic crisis and failed agrarian reforms, the leftist group Shining Path destroyed precious water infrastructure, along with bridges and electrical systems. More recently, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) took control of the Tabqa (2013) and Mosul (2014) dams, spurring fears the dams would fail and disrupt water flows and hydropower generation.
While water-related terrorism is not new, it is on the rise, increasing 263 percent from 1970 to 2016, according to our analysis. The highest concentration of incidents—68 percent—occurred in the post-9/11 era.
THE POTENTIAL RISE OF SARIN MANUFACTURING AMONG NON-STATE ACTORS
~ American Security Project, June 5, 2013
There are growing signs that non-state actors might be beginning to manufacture sarin weapons as opposed to trying to acquire them from pre-existing stocks. In the last week there have been two separate reports of al-Qaeda linked groups being captured with sarin. In Syria, the terrorist group al-Nusrah Front was captured with five pounds of sarin.
Most troubling is that the manufacture of sarin involves simply mixing two chemicals with relatively little skill required. Deployment methods are wide and varied.

The Oath
The following oath was repeated by millions leading up to World War II. Most of them meant it. Many did not.
Ich schwöre bei Gott diesen heiligen Eid,

unbedingten Gehorsam leisten und als tapferer Soldat bereit sein will,
