Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled!
When the business interests, lead by William C. Whitney, pushed through the first instalment of civil service reform in 1883, <strong>they expected that they would be able to control both political parties equally. Indeed, some of them intended to contribute to both and allow an alternation of the two parties in public office in order to conceal their own influence, inhibit any exhibition of independence by politicians, and allow the electorate to believe that they were exercising their own free choice.</strong> - Carroll Quigley

Night of the Long Knives Murders at Lichterfeld Barracks
Started 1934-06-30Ended 1934-06-30
Around 150 SA leaders that were either captured at their homes or arrested at the Brown House headquarters where taken to Lichterfeld Barracks and put into a cellar. Four at a time they were called out, had their shirts taken off, had red circle targets drawn on the heart area of their chest and shot. The wall behind the the soldiers caked up with blood and gore. It became so disgusting that the men of the firing squad had to be relieved by others because the sight was so horrifying.
