t-ww630WW 630Unusual Italian Social Republic propaganda using crystal ball spirituality and numerology to predict Hitler would win the war by drawing parallels in time to important events in Hitler’s and Napoleon’s life. First there is an explanation of fortune telling for the novice. It says “The True Sibyl. In each of us there is an intense desire to know the future. The methods for knowing today what will happen tomorrow are very ancient; the human spirit always invents new means to reveal the future. The new and old methods of these researches are set forth here in brief examples for the benefit of progress, for the instruction of youth, and for the benefit of all who wish to become seers. The seven of hearts is next to the two of diamonds of the jack and above the queen. You look younger than you are and you will have to suffer the consequences. The six of clubs above the six of diamonds next to the three of hearts means the imminent fulfillment of a dream that will come true with joy in 9 months. My warmest wishes.

Mars enters the seventh house and runs after Virgo. A sudden decision is imminent which in the Jupiter - Sun trine will bring an unexpected victory and will be a disappointment for those waiting. When Neptune reaches the square of Uranium, income will also increase.

A great unexpected love and a journey are coming. You don't like work and therefore you will find yourself in serious difficulty. Set yourself up for work with courage and then your worries will disappear. In the second year after this, a third begins from which you can expect many unexpected things.”

It then goes into numerology with “Calculations on the future. Prognosis of figures for comparative historical investigations carried out by English experts on American bases.” The final conclusion being “The American and English essays on Hitler's life and deeds are brilliant and appropriate. The final calculations, however, will be made by Hitler according to his approval.”

Italian Social Republic propaganda produced shortly after the capitulation. It says “The Homeland is in Danger! The government you have had up to now has betrayed Italy, it has capitulated unconditionally! The traitors will abandon Italy and hand you over without weapons to the Allies who hate the valiant Italian soldiers for the glorious battles carried out against them. Should the hard sacrifices you have undergone be in vain? Do you seriously believe that the Allies will bring you peace? Do you think they will suddenly become your friends? The new government will prevent you from becoming the victims of such sophisms and saves you from the misery of a people suppressed and impoverished for centuries, which must slowly die of hunger. The new government will prevent you from becoming the victims of such sophisms and save you from the misery of a people suppressed and impoverished for centuries, who must immediately die of hunger. The new government, supported by the impressive German Armed Forces and the majority of loyal troops, who are determined to fight and confident of victory, will change your destiny. He will end this war victoriously and give you a beneficial peace. Judge for yourselves: From a submission you have nothing to hope for except pain and misery, from a victory with the strong ally Germany you have everything to expect. Do you therefore want to cheat yourself of the fruits of victory and exclude yourself as traitors stigmatized by the European community? Drive away the traitors who want to bring about such an opprobrious end to your glorious history! Protect your women from the Negroes, Jews and other auxiliary peoples of the Allies! Have faith in the new government, help it actually, save your homeland! Carry out the orders of the new government, prevent any transgression! Otherwise you would do nothing but help your enemies. Anyone who helps traitors in any way is an enemy of the homeland and will be severely punished! Think about your future, save your homeland and the Italian people from ruin! help your country! Save Italy!”

Italian Social Republic propaganda designed to gather new recruits. It says “TO THE YOUNG BROTHERS OF THE CLASSES OF 1922 1925

Terror, the deportation of our children to Russia, the bombings do not make us retreat from the sacred duty of defending the homeland. Shame on the traitors who, with the help of hated foreigners, plunge our people into mourning. What would happen to the Italians if the war were to spread over the entire body of the homeland? Should dark forces, which can never tell you what your fate will be after the war, take advantage of this terrible tragedy? The war without forgiveness won. For seven months the Anglo-Americans have clashed in vain against the heroic fighting lines of the Germans.

Young Brothers!

The war has now truly become a purely Italian war. The most serious responsibility weighs on you, young people, in this dramatic moment. Be truly worthy Garibaldini!

Increase Garibaldi's detachments a hundredfold by enlisting in the new Italian army and chase the enemy from your land! Only then can the war be shortened! Only in this way will you defend the workers from hunger, preserve the farmers' fields, fight for the Resurrection of the Fatherland!

Young Brothers!

Italy will rise again. The new Italy will crush the Bolshevik serpent and will conquer independence and freedom with its own forces! Where there is sacrifice, blood and struggle, there is at the same time spring and renewal.

Young Sons of Italy!

Do you want to continue cowardly escaping into the woods for a long time? Do you really believe that the place of a true Italian is close to those enemies of the order who use you for their dark machinations? Do you also know how much money they get if they manage to sell your blood? Do you also know that for them you are just numbers, figures, after the loss they are coldly, cynically cancelled?

Do not join the ranks of Moscow's mercenary army!

The new Italy calls you for the decisive fight!

Your life, for the salvation of the country!

Long live the brothers of the classes of 1922-1925!”

Italian Social Republic propaganda produced very early in the regime (September 23, 1943). Warning against harsh measures for insurrection it says “In a locality in the province of Verona, young people cut military telephone cables; in another locality an Italian bourgeois stole some items of Italian military equipment, and in another locality some Italian bourgeois shot at a German column. In all three cases the perpetrators were arrested and jailed; the military law against them is already in operation; the most severe punishment will be applied and perhaps even the death sentence. The assets will be seized and the relatives forced into forced labor. This very severe measure by the German Command is necessary to protect German military interests. For everyone, this first case must serve as a warning. Anyone who carries out similar acts against German interests at the instigation of English agents or the traitorous government of Badoglio will bear the rigors of military law. Not only the authors but also their families will meet the same fate. All perpetrators are warned once and for all.”

Italian Social Republic propaganda warning that the Bolsheviks are stealing Italian children. It says “Behind the scenes! Pulcinella's Secret. Bolshevism also extends its rapacious hands towards Southern Italy.

Stalin orders that, for his communist education program, the armaments industry and his war plans, all male children aged 4 to 15 be brought to Russia.

The Anglo-Americans do not want to prevent it because they have no advantage in doing so, they cannot prevent it because the influence of Bolshevism on them is already too great. And so behind the faithful complicity of Badoglio's emissaries and the Italian communists this scandalous work is carried out, against all civilization and all human sense. After all, we already knew the same barbaric measures of the Bolsheviks from the Spanish civil war! Even then many Spanish children were torn from their mothers and dragged to Russia. Poor remains of ragged and starving children, reduced to an almost bestial state, were found here and there by German soldiers and returned to their families.

An incalculable number of Italian children have already been taken away under the indifferent eyes of the Anglo-Americans; in front of the rude faces of the Soviet commissars these children were taken and embarked into the unknown.

Italian Mother! This is the future that is being prepared for our children!”

Italian Social Republic propaganda aimed at the Allied air offensive. It says “THIS IS THE END of the air gangsters sent by Roosevelt and Churchill to make war on women and children and to destroy cities and homes.

They pay with very heavy losses, inflicted on them by the Luftwaffe, for every attack on the defenseless population.

22 out of 26.

On December 28, 26 North American bombers, escorted by fighters, penetrated northern Italy. 20 bombers were shot down in dogfights and two more by Luftwaffe Flak.

97 planes shot down.

The war bulletin of January 6 informed that in the previous 24 hours 97 Anglo-American planes belonging to formations that had attacked Germany had been destroyed.

A black week.

In the first week of 1944, Anglo-American losses amounted to 262 planes, of which 231 were four-engined bombers.

136 did not reach their objectives.

Exceptionally heavy losses were inflicted on the American bomber formations, which attempted an attack on targets located in central Germany on the morning of January 11th. 136 North American planes, including 124 four-engine bombers, were shot down, mostly before reaching their targets. The demolition of further aircraft is probable.

Italian Social Republic propaganda denigrating Allied war efforts in the Western Balkans. It says “8 of 10,000. Over the past four months, German troops have achieved great successes in the fight against communist gangs in the Western Balkans. Over 10,000 bandits were captured, 30,000 wounded and 25,000 killed.

The population raided and driven out by bandits now returns, in extensive territories liberated from communist terror, to their villages under the protection of Germanic weapons.

The military situation in the Western Balkans has changed radically in these few months. The most important points on the eastern shore of the Adriatic are guarded by the vigilant German coastal defense. The strengthening of defensive works continues throughout the vast territory according to pre-established plans.

DISAPPOINTED HOPES, DESTROYED HAPPINESS.

The decisive reoccupation operations of the Balkans and the defensive works of the coastal territories have deprived the Anglo-Americans of any hope of being able to extend the war, thanks to the betrayal of the Badoglio generals, even to south-eastern Europe. Italians, do not forget all the unspeakable harm that has been done to you and all the domestic happiness that has been destroyed because of them.

do not listen to those who sold themselves to the architects of your misfortune, to England and the United States.

In other cities the number is already much larger. The Negus requested 200,000 ITALIANS as slaves for work in the colony and received them on the orders of the Anglo-Americans. How many will still have to share their fate? CAN THE ANGLO-AMERICANS DENY ALL THIS? Of course they have to do this to hide their regime of tyranny and terror. ITALIANS!

Marshal Graziani, Minister of National Defense, and Gen. Gambara, Chief of Staff, have called together those officers, non-commissioned officers and soldiers who, volunteers, want to raise the honor of the homeland and continue in the fight for the defense of the Republic Social and achieve Victory alongside the Germanic allies.

-On the other hand, a Government of reactionaries and defectors headed by the king and Badoglio who, having betrayed the honor of the soldier and the Italian people, act in the service of the enemy in a vain attempt to save the crown and personal property.
