The Nazi Bride Schools

A very interesting article  by Sarah Rainey on a little-known institution in Germany: the Nazi Bride Schools.  This week, a series of documents unearthed in Germany’s Federal Archive, based in Koblenz, exposes what was once a mysterious training acadamies in Germany. Here are some excerpts:

Quote:
Young girls learnt the importance of the three Ks (kinder, küche and kirche; children, kitchen and church) through compulsory membership of the League of German Maidens, and later the National Socialist Women’s League (NS-Frauenschaft). Under the Law for the Encouragement of Marriage, newlyweds were given a state loan of 1,000 reichsmarks (approximately £3,000) of which they were allowed to keep a quarter for each child they had – in effect, a bribe to procreate.
In this respect, explains Dr Marius Turda of Oxford Brookes University: “The bride schools perfectly illustrate the Nazi regime’s ambition to control its population, both privately and publicly. A good German wife was supposed to be at the same time a supportive mother and a promoter of racial values in the family.”

Initially, the attendees were fiancées of prominent SS members and the Nazi party elite. Later, attendance was opened to all German women who were deemed suitable brides for Hitler’s superior race....

The training was the result of a collaboration between SS chief Himmler and Gertrud Scholtz-Klink, leader of the NS-Frauenschaft....“In this way, Scholtz-Klink was attaching herself and the NS‑Frauenschaft to a rising player in the National Socialist state: the SS,” explains the historian Michael Burleigh. “They combined indoctrination with domestication…The anti-Christian thrust is noteworthy – the neo-pagan ceremonies and Führer worship, plus the exclusionary and racist features.”

End quote.

Here are some photos released from:  "The Frauen Warte was the Nazi Party’s bi-weekly illustrated magazine for women. This page includes scans of a two-page article of an article on a Nazi school for brides. The English translation of the article is available here. This page includes translations of the picture captions."

Its eerie to see such blissful face put on such a heinous movement, but is that not what we also have seen today in regard to Islam? A historically and consistantly violent political-religion, trying to put on a clean, sanitized, happy face for Westerns, such as what CAIR does as did TLC's unpopular, and what had to be one of the shortest serious on TV, "All-American Muslim" (while at the same time Dearborn Michigan was repeatedly violating the rights of Christian Americans at a public Arab Festival--see the irony?)
