Today the Naziphobia Research and Documentation Center celebrated its grand inaugural at the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee. The ceremony was presided over by the center's founder, Heinrich Bormann, a German immigrant who was born in Nuremberg. Also present were several dignitaries representing the German American Bund, numerous chapter presidents from Students for Justice in Sudentenland (also founded by Bormann), a delegation from San Francisco State University's The Hitler Union of German Students (THUGS), and the president of Milwaukee's top brewery, Schitz, who provided the liquid refreshments.

A German band was there which played several old German favorites like, "From the Memel to the Rhine. Deutschland will be judenrein. 

Congratulatory telegrams were read including one from the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Hajj Amin Husseini (below left).



On the wall were banners urging participants to celebrate the boycott movement kicking off in Germany this very day.

In his speech, Bormann said that the creation for the Naziphobia Research and Documentation Center, also known by its already well-known acronym NPRADC / "In-pra-dac"/, was necessary to combat disinformation and hateful propaganda against Nazism and its leader, Adolf Hitler.

"Nazism teaches peace und tolerance," he said. "Our enemies vould have you believe dat ve are violent and intolerant, vant to conquer da world, und vant to consign our vomen to da home vere they vill make apple strudel and have lots of little Nazis for da movement. Nothing could be further from da truth."

Asked to define Naziphobia, Bormann answered, "It is any irrational fear or dislike of Nazis including a belief dat Nazis are violent, anti-Jewish or intolerant. It is also attached to anyone who resists having Nazis move into deir neighborhoods, cities, or countries."

When asked by a reporter why Nazis in Germany were boycotting Jewish businesses, Bormann replied, " It is because if you look on da buildings in German cities, all you see are Jewish names, just like when you valk around college campuses, all you see are Jewish names. It is dey who are sphreading propaganda against our party und our Fuehrer. Sieg heil."

"And what will you do with all the information you accumulate?" asked another reporter.

"Ja, vi will keep meticulous files on all names und organizations that vi deem to be Naziphobic, and vi will report dem to der proper authorities to shut dem down."

"But this is America," replied the reporter. "Don't these people have free speech to question and criticize?"

"Nein. In Amerika, dere should be no right to spread hate speech against Nazism. As you are vell aware, vi support a measure in da League of Nations to criminalize any speech against Nazism in all member nations," answered Bormann. "Ven dat day comes, vi vill have our files at deir disposal."

"But," said the reporter just as he was picked up by two goons from the Students for Justice in Sudentenland and dragged from the hall. At the same time, another man who was trying to videotape the event was given the bum's rush.

Another reporter held up his hand. "Is it true that there is a passage in Mein Kampf that read, "And on the Day of Victory, the Jew will hide inside a beer stein and the stein will call out to the Nazi, 'Oh Nazi. There is a Jew inside me. Come and kill him'"?

"Qwatsch," said Bormann. Das ist not in Mein Kampf. I can tell you because I have memorized every verse in Mein Kampf, und it is not dere. Maybe Der Fuehrer said it somewhere, but I am sure if he did, he vas joking."

"But didn't you quote it yourself?" said the reporter as he was being grabbed by goons from SJS and carried out of the hall.

"I guess I don't have to answer his qvestion since he is no longer here," chuckled Bormann.
