Hi-Tech Fail: NATO Germany proves Mules still rule Mountain Warfare

One of the most economically powerful European Union member, and a powerful NATO member, Germany still uses mules in mountain warfare because they’re still the most efficient way to transport weapons and supplies to Gebirgsjäger.  So much for hi-technology.

Deutschland Über Alles!: Revell USA is dead, long live Revell Germany!

12MAY2018 /21:37 UTC-07 Tango 06  (23 Ordibehesht 1397/27 Sha’ban 1439/28 Ding-Si 4716)

“It is a sad time for the model building community… I have not seen anything ‘official’ from Revell, but It has been confirmed to me by a reliable source that Revell USA has in fact closed their doors.”-UP Scale Hobbies facebook post

Another victim of the so called recovered economy, the end of a long model building era in the United States, Revell USA (Revell-Monogram) is dead!

Starting out in California in 1943, as a subcontractor for plastics manufacturers, its first job reportedly being parts for washing machines, followed by anything relating to HO (1:87) scale train sets.   It was known as Precision Specialties.

When the company decided to focus on toys the name was changed to Revell (Wikipedia says it’s from the French word reveille, however Revell is a English/French family name that goes back to medieval times).  In the 1950s the focus was originally on model cars, but shifted to U.S. Navy ships, the most infamous being the constantly re-issued and horribly inaccurate USS Missouri.  This is humorous because supposedly the USN kits were considered so accurate that the Soviet Union bought Revell kits to learn about U.S. warship development (maybe that’s why the U.S.S.R. was constantly behind in the naval arms race).

Purportedly this crappy kit is what got the ball rollin' for Revell

The success of Revell’s ship kits led to the company producing kits of almost anything you can think of.  However, this didn’t stop Revell from succumbing to the same economic forces as other industries, as I’ve previously explained in 1:72 SHOCK & AWE LOCKHEED F-104 STARFIGHTER, OR, WHY YOU CAN’T TRUST SCALE DRAWINGS! PLUS MASSIVE HISTORICAL CONFUSION ABOUT REVELL-MONOGRAM!

By 2012, longtime model kit builders thought economic bad times were over for Revell when an employee owned, Illinois based company, called Hobbico bought and merged Revell USA and Revell Germany (GmbH).  Wrong again!  In January 2018, Hobbico went bankrupt busted and began liquidating its divisions.  Immediately, Revell Germany issued a statement saying they were not impacted (“Hobbico’s bankruptcy filing was made in the United States and is strictly limited to the company’s U.S. operations, Revell-Germany is unaffected.”).

For decades (since 1970s) Revell Germany has reissued British Frog kits

Revell USA production was halted in April, even shipments of already packaged kits were stopped. A group of investors called Quantum Capital Partners aus München (for some odd reason many U.S. and British sources are calling the group Blitz GmbH, my source is Revell Germany itself) which bought both Revell Germany and Revell USA.

The month before Revell was sold-off, Revell USA announced the much longed for reissue of the coveted Deal’s Wheels Baja Humbug

According to bankruptcy court documents, on 13APR2018 Quantum Capital Partners of Munich won the rights to Revell with a bid of about $3.9-million USD.  Revell USA ceased to exist, Revell Germany will continue as if nothing had happened.  I should point out that the $3.9-million was the high bid, apparently there was only one other bidder, it’s just more proof the model kit industry is in decline.  Hobbico was hoping for $10-million.

According to a press release by Revell Germany, Deutschland is the new home base for all Revell operations, including ops in North America: “Revell is pleased to partner with Quantum Capital Partners who supports the company in its further international growth.  At this point, I would also like to thank all trading and business partners for the Thank you for your confidence during the transition period in recent weeks.”-Stefan Krings, president of Revell Germany

“Revell is a renowned and well-established company and has been an impressive and internationally established successful toy brand. We will build on this strength and the brand with its unique positioning as a model maker….”-Steffen Görig, Quantum Capital Partners

Since its founding in 2008, Quantum Capital Partners (QCP) has taken over several dozens of companies including BASF, Bosch, Deutsche Bahn and even Airbus (even joining with the Islamic Investment Bank to make sure Airbus aircraft are Shariah compliant)!

By the way, Hobbico’s demise also affected Japan’s Hasegawa and Italy’s Italeri as Hobbico had become the distributor of those brands in the United States.

Great Reneger: South Carolina Militia deploys to Germany!

“We are going to have to stop being the policemen of the world.”-Donald Trump, August 2015 interview with Hugh Hewitt

On 28FEB2018, personnel from the now stretched thin South Carolina Army National Guard landed in Ansbach, Deutschland.

It should be noted that in 2016 a refugee from Syria blew himself up in Ansbach, no thanks to NATO Germany’s pro-immigrant policies.

South Carolina’s 678th Air Defense Artillery will be in Germany for the next nine months, to provide a “visible symbol” against so called Russian aggression (stop denying the Nue Kalt Krieg).

CLANDESTINE IMMIGRATION: GERMAN BOAT SEIZED FOR HUMAN TRAFFICKING! ITALY & LIBYA FORM UNITED NAVY TO BLOCK MIGRANTS?

Clandestine Immigration: German boat seized for Human Trafficking! Italy & Libya form united navy to block migrants?

More proof it’s about destroying your job!

After months of dramatic rescues of ‘migrants’ and ‘refugees’ in the Mediterranean Sea, Italy (Italia) seized a German (Deutsche) operated fishing boat and accused the crew of human trafficking.

The Italian Guardia Costiera (Coast Guard) says they’ve been monitoring the NGO (non-governmental organization) operated boat, named Inuventa, and witnessed several meetings between the crew and known human traffickers.

Inuventa is one of many privately operated so-called refugee rescue boats in the Mediterranean.  Just last month Inuventa and a second German operated boat (called Sea-Eye) called for help because they had taken on too many migrants.  Inuventa is operated by a group calling itself Jugend Rettet (Youth Rescue), they even have a website.    Some news media reports say the Sea-Eye is also being operated by Jugend Rettet.

German news media revealed that Jugend Rettet is one of six NGO ‘rescue’ groups that refuse to sign onto an Italian regulation establishing rules for so-called rescue operations.

For Months the Italian Marina Militare (navy) and Guardia Costiera have been praised for the thousands of people they’ve rescued, but more and more Italians are convinced the whole refugee crisis is a False Flag operation by corporations and puppet governments to bring-in cheap labor, rendering tens of thousands of Italians jobless.  In fact the Italian officials are using a new term for the False Flag refugee crisis; clandestine immigration.

Using social media Jugend Rettet denied being detained, or that Innuventa was seized, but did admit “…we are not able to operate in the Search and Rescue Zone at the moment.”

As a result of escalating clandestine immigration, the Italian government approved a plan allowing the Marina Militare to help the weak Libyan government shore up its own naval forces, and to stop human trafficking by sending in a couple of Italian ships to patrol Libyan water (however, some Libyan politicians are protesting the Italian plan).

Record number of U.S. & U.K. citizens defect to Germany! What do you know, Deutschland!

13 JUN 2017 (14:09 UTC-07 Tango 06) 23 Khordad 1396/18 Ramadan 1438/19 Bing Wu 4715

During the Cold War when a person moves to another country and becomes a citizen of that country it was called defecting.

According to the Statistisches Bundesamt of Deutschland (Federal Statistical Office of Germany) the number of United States citizens now claiming German citizenship increased by 33% between 2009 and 2015.  Don’t blame Donald Trump, those are the years when Barack Obama was president.

This chart shows that the great emigration of U.S. citizens skyrocketed after Obama became president.

Interestingly, the liberal left bureaucrats controlling Germany officially don’t understand the big jump in ‘Mericans calling Deutschland home, telling local German news media that “..we don’t have any data for the motivation” because they didn’t consider the Obama years as having any political reforms that would drive ‘Mericans away.  However, a news source called The Local interviewed a family from Texas who straight up said “We are happy here, our kids’ educational opportunities are better than they would be in the places where we would move back to, Texas or Georgia… and health care.  ObamaCare anybody?  Doesn’t that count as a political/legal reform?

Another interesting fact is that 79% of U.S. citizens who get German citizenship aren’t even living in Germany.  Basically they’re former German citizens who want to move back to the Fatherland!

55% of U.S. citizens who became German citizens had to renounce U.S. citizenship, 45% were able to have dual citizenship.  The amount of men versus women moving to Germany is almost even, with the majority being 45 years of age or older.

But wait, there’s more!  In 2016, the British empire country of United Kingdom experienced a record breaking jump in defectors, by 361%!  It’s being blamed on the vote to leave the European Union.  However, the biggest group of people becoming German citizens still come from Turkey!

But native born Germans are fleeing as well.  At the end of 2016, the Gatestone Institute reported that in the past ten years more than 1.5-million Deutsches Volk left their Fatherland, 138-thousand just in 2015!  The reason is the never ending ‘refugee’ crisis, which is resulting in record crimes by migrants.  I’ve already written about ‘make work’ jobs being created for migrants at taxpayer expense.

Another reason for Germans getting the hell outta Dodge is religion. Even though Christianity was forced upon Germanic people, most Germans consider Christianity a European, even German, cultural identity.  With the False Flag war refugees Germany now has the biggest Islamic population in Europe, closely followed by France.

Ironically some German citizens have become illegal immigrants right here in the United States, ranked as number four in 2015 (but note that British empire Canadians are number one for overstaying their visas).

It must be noted that the boom in international immigration, from one country to another, is being led by native born citizens who are tired of non-native peoples flooding into their country, or being driven out by foreign created False Flag wars of liberation, thus creating a downward spiral (upward spiral?) of international emigration & immigration.  It’s happening everywhere!  When all is said and done, the number one reasons for this global immigration is about jobs, economics and conniving governments working for elitist corporations. 

Maybe the NSDAP was right after all? German workers unite!

False Flag: German police now admit they were tracking Berlin attacker!

21 December 2016 (12:31 UTC-07 Tango 06) 01 Dey 1395/21 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1438/23 Geng Zi 4714

Deutschland’s Gemeinsames TerrorismusAbwehrZentrum (GTAZ – Joint Counter-Terrorism Center) now admits they know who did the Xmas Market attack, because they’ve been tracking the guy since last month!  This is typical of almost all ‘surprise’ terrorist attacks, and what makes it an official False Flag attack (authority figures knowing about criminal activity but allowing it to happen is officially a False Flag)!

The attacker is a refugee from Tunis, had been arrested and placed under court ordered surveillance.  He was also supposed to be deported, but some reports say he was not deported because the government of Tunis (Tunisia) at first claimed he was not a citizen of their country!  Is it coincidence that the attack took place when Tunis finally issued a temporary passport to allow him to be legally deported?

Polizei are now searching the western border of Deutschland for the attacker, hundreds of miles from where the attack took place.  The attacker is known to use different names and to claim to be from Egypt or Lebanon.

FALSE FLAG: TURKEY, RUSSIA BLAME ASSASSINATION ON U.S. BASED EXTREMIST GROUP!

“The biggest mental images I have is there were two rivers of blood going down the floor.”-Luke Theis, U.S. citizen witness to Berlin attack

Nostradamus, Century II Quatrain 97: Roman Pontiff beware of approaching The city that two rivers flow through, Near there your blood will come to spirt, You and yours when the rose will flourish.

“A soldier of the Islamic State carried out the Berlin operation in response to appeals to target citizens of the crusader coalition countries.”-Not surprisingly DAIISH (DA for al-DAwla, I for al-Islamiya, I for al-Iraq, SH al-SHam [al-Sham=Syria]), aka Islamic State, claims credit for the Berlin truck attack

Berlin polizei released the man they’ve been claiming was the driver of the truck that plowed into a Xmas Market yesterday.  The Pakistani asylum seeker was arrested near the scene of the attack, and original Deutschland main stream news media reports said he had been chased by a witness (which turns out is not true, so much for the ‘real’ news media versus ‘fake’ news).  Essentially xenophobic witnesses simply grabbed the nearest ‘foreigner’ and claimed they saw him getting out of the truck.  This means the true driver escaped.  It also implies that nobody saw the driver of the truck.

Believe it or not, it appears the truck was stopped by an Xmas Tree!

Polizei also released more details about the ‘passenger’.  They now believe the dead man from Polska was the original company driver, he died from being shot and stabbed numerous times.  Polizei say the Pakistani man they released had no blood, or gunpowder residue, on him. They also released info from the truck’s ‘black box’ recorders.

About the time the Polska company lost contact with their driver the data devices on the truck show it was started and stopped numerous times, as if somebody was learning how to drive the Scania semi.  The truck circled the Xmas Market several times before reaching approximately 80 kph (50 mph) when it rammed the shoppers.

Finger pointing has gotten so bad that one Deutschland news article actually blames Edward Snowden and Wikileaks, accusing their revelations of our government’s involvement in False Flag operations as somehow allowing these terrorist actions to happen!
