A PARALLEL BETWEEN NAZI, BRITISH AND AMERICAN POLITICS

The Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill, which is being introduced in Parliament by Jim Murphy MP to destroy it, is eerily similar to a recent ruling in the USA which stated that the President could do what the hell he liked. It is similar to the Enabling Act 1933 of Germany which gave Hitler his authority.

The folks at Executive Intelligence Review have been analyzing this trend towards authoratarianism in politics and have identified its source. It is called Führerprinzip which was the idea of the leading Nazi philosopher of law Carl Schmitt. Basically Führerprinzip states that the head of state IS the law. Schmitt declared that the president could rule, under conditions of financial or economic emergency, by means of gesetzvertretende Verordnungen or "law-substituting decrees," which, while not formally laws, nonetheless carried the full weight of the law.

The folks at EIR have traced the current neoconservative ideology to a man called Leo Strauss. It was Carl Schmitt who arranged a Rockefeller Foundation scholarship for Strauss in 1934, which eventually led Strauss to Chicago University which was started with Rockefeller money and I believe is still supported by them. The Rockefellers and the Nazis were good buddies.

The Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill is just Führerprinzip under a different name.

This can not be good. The parallel between the USA and the UK now, and Nazi Germany is very disturbing.
