Editor s Note: Thanks to the Internet, is so easy to familiarize ourselves today with the history of yesterday history that we as a society DO NOT WANT TO REPEAT. Much of what is happening right now under Herr Schwab and Herr Biden and Herr Gates happened during Sophie Scholl s time, too. She and her brother endured everything we re facing now.
All throughout 2020, we gained firsthand knowledge of the awesome power of propaganda and how easy it is to use fear tactics to enslave an entire people in a very short period of time. After COVID and the 2020 election and Klaus Schwab s threatened Great Reset, nobody will ever again wonder how the Nazis took over Germany. We get it.

Her name is not widely known outside Germany, but Sophie Scholl is an iconic figure in her native country and her story is extraordinary.
This weekend many will commemorate the 100th anniversary of the birth of a young woman who famously stood up to Adolf Hitler and paid for it with her life.
Her resistance is retold countless times in books, films and plays. And it continues to inspire people today.
Sophie Scholl was born in 1921 into a country in turmoil. But her childhood was secure and comfortable.
Her father was the mayor of the south-western town of Forchtenburg (though the family would later move to Ulm) and Sophie, along with her five brothers and sisters, was brought up in a Lutheran household in which Christian values mattered.
GERMANY commemorated the 100th birthday of anti-fascist martyr Sophie Scholl today.
An open-air play about Scholl’s life was performed in Munich, the city where the White Rose resistance group she worked in distributed anti-Nazi leaflets.
She and her comrades were arrested after scattering leaflets from a balcony at Munich University in 1943. Though Gestapo interrogator Robert Mohr initially thought she was not involved, she admitted her responsibility to shield others from a possible investigation.
Scholl, her brother Hans and fellow resistance activist Christoph Probst were executed on February 22 that year. She was 21.
She famously said before her execution by guillotine: “Such a fine, sunny day, and I have to go … what does my death matter if, through us, thousands of people are awakened and stirred to action?”
