Michael Martens, a journalist and author for the influential German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine, reports that his grandfather, Hans-Hermann Martens, served as an officer in the Wehrmacht Operations Staff (WFSt) of the Armed Forces High Command (OKW) starting in 1941. In this capacity, he spent time at the Führer Headquarters and was included in Adolf Hitler’s so-called “Table Talk” sessions. Following the defeat at Stalingrad, he requested and received a transfer to Norway in 1943.
What happened next is particularly noteworthy: Hans-Hermann Martens was able to continue his legal and political career in post-war Germany virtually without interruption. An officer from the Wehrmacht Operations Staff—who had served in Hitler’s immediate circle during the war—transformed into a respected jurist and politician in the Federal Republic, with his Nazi past apparently posing no lasting obstacle to his public career. He became a Senate President and continued to publish specialized legal literature. His biography thus exemplifies the continuities in personnel that characterized West Germany’s reconstruction after 1945.

Nazi Germany was denied the “final victory” it sought—including over the hated Russians. This inevitably raises the question: Was that why Martens’s grandson, Michael Martens, asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, “What can we Europeans concretely do to kill more Russians?”
In this context, I recommend reading my fact-based article “Germany, not Russia, has become Europe’s most dangerous nation—again.”

The Worst Anti-Semitism No One Talks About
Germany is Europe’s driving force behind a new Holocaust to wipe out a Semitic people, the Palestinians. The comprehensive, evidence-supported exposé. — It was submitted to numerous established and alternative media outlets in Germany. Not a single one accepted it for publication.
EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH A SURVIVOR OF THE GAZA GHETTO — While his neighborhood was being bombed and razed to the ground, Antoun Ananias — whose Christian Orthodox family can trace and document its roots in Palestine back many centuries — survived alone in his apartment, surrounded by an army of starving rats. He disinfected his open wounds with his own urine. His story was also offered to German media, but they showed no interest.
Yet again, I approached German media with this interview. They turned it down. See the pattern?

Germany had cold-bloodedly and deliberately exterminated the Herero and Nama peoples in Namibia and attempted to suppress its moral guilt. Berlin has paid Israel reparations amounting to tens of billions. Namibia has received no reparations. Is this because they were ‘only’ Africans and black people and not Jews and white people?
