As of today, something is also some changing for us.

We open our journal to anyone who wants to publish guest articles. We have set up a separate section for this. The guest articles run alongside normal operations.

At the same time, the book blog will be activated for all authors as of today. We will explain this in a separate following post.

Here are the rules of the game:

Those who know us know that we publish radical ideas, neither right-wing slogans nor left-wing radical ideas. We do not publish such propaganda or contents from the right-wing. We do not publish conspiracy theories. We reserve the right to shorten the articles.

The editors reserve the right to reject articles.

The articles should be sent in an acceptable form to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. We reserve the right for changes. Currently only in German, English and French. A verifiable e-mail address and the name of the author must be clearly stated below the article. The tags must be specified, as well as a short summary of the article.

The authors cede us the exclusive copyright for publication if they send the text to us. If this text is published in another medium, we take the article from "the management".

Each article should be accompanied by a photo of its own, for which the author holds the copyright. The responsibility for this lies with the author. Possible legal disputes are the responsibility of the authors, not the publisher.

The texts, we're checking, should not be plagiarisms. In case of doubt, the article will not be published.

Links are welcome.

There is neither the right to remuneration nor to reimbursement of expenses, the publisher publishes the texts free of charge. We reserve the right to place advertisements in the articles.

Otherwise, the GDPR and the GSR apply

Good luck and we look forward to numerous articles!

South Africa - the world in one country, was once the slogan of SAL Suid-Afrikaanse Lugdiens, now SAA. That was understated, shameless.

South Africa is the natural paradise on this earth.

Africa as a whole.

There is not much land behind Cape Town. But a lot to see, here are a few impressions of the way to Stellenbosch. Where they have the excellent wine and the university.

Everyone should have seen South Africa.

Not much has changed in the poverty of the former township. Time seems to have stopped.

Now it's supposed to be over, or maybe not. At least the FBI explained that the case has now been moved to the archives since the perpetrator probably can't be caught anymore.

Can you believe it?

U.S. Federal Government - U.S. Federal Government FBI wanted poster for D. B. Cooper

America's most mysterious hijacking continues.

On the contrary: A whole series of "self-accusers" and a crude mixture of agent stories (If it was nobody, it was the CIA) accompany the still unsolved hijacking case of a 1971 North West Airlines plane from Portland, Oregon.

Remember, a man who called himself D Cooper, who later became DB Cooper for investigative reasons, hijacked an airliner on the eve of Thanksgiving 1971 from Portland to Seattle.

As if that weren't enough, he demanded from his comfortable seat, over gin without ice, showing the horrified stewardess a series of cables and red poles in a standard briefcase, US$200,000 and, believe it or not, four parachutes.

The US authorities, shaken by numerous Cuba hijackings in the days, supplied the US$200,000 demanded by Cooper and the parachutes, the plane was refuelled, and Cooper pretended to want to flee to Mexico. The hostages were released, no one was hurt, and the aircraft turned back around.

The Boing 727, which had a rear stairway, then offered the man, who jumped from about 3000 meters into the forests above the Columbia River, the perfect environment to escape the long arm of justice finally. He disappeared in his tailor-made suit through the "back door" of Boing 727, which had this staircase as a feature.

Years later, in 1980, a boy playing on the said Columbia River found US$5,800 from the naturally registered ransom in the sand of the dam. None of the remaining money turned up.
Now a young woman claims that the mysterious DB Cooper was her uncle, an award-winning paratrooper in the Korean War, who was commissioned by the CIA to arrange the kidnapping.
A certain similarity with the FBI wanted poster and the recordings of the uncle from those days cannot be denied.
However, why would the CIA have commissioned such a grotesque aircraft hijacking? Besides, why would the CIA still have parts of the ransom money buried at the site of the Columbia River?
DB Cooper, who is still wanted by the FBI, mutates more and more in the countless stories into a phantom, who after more than 40 years finally vanishes in the jungle of assumptions and rumours.
History is amusing in any case.

Today the Soviet Union is forgotten, a terrible construct from history. From this time originate the photographs, which are certainly a rarity and are otherwise only usually preserved in the form of postcards. These recordings have been post-processed and were preserved as slides on Orwo negatives.

In these days there was the supposedly so happy Soviet man, who strolled along the magnificent boulevards of the capital of the revolution of 1917. Nobody was really happy in the Communism experiment, but the culture was abundantly provided for.

Leningrad was a city rich in history. To each era. Leningrad has always been a place of culture and international understanding, whether during the time of the tsar or the communists.

And a city with countless problems. The pollution of the environment reached extraordinary levels. There was more and more resistance against the all-powerful Communistic Party.

Much of the cultural heritage had been destroyed during the siege of the German Wehrmacht in 1941.

Now, 30 years after the war, when these pictures were taken, the shock of what had happened in the more than 1000-day blockade of Leningrad was still deep. The generation of those who had experienced the days of famine kept the memory of the Great Patriotic War alive.

The all-determining personality cult around Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, called Lenin, took on grotesque characteristics.

Like a fetish, the places of activity that had led to the Russian Revolution were presented.

As in every dictatorship, the heroic deeds of the Russian Revolution were fed by rumours and

Legends that had undoubtedly led to another totalitarian state, the Soviet Union. Lenin was certainly not the saviour who freed the people of Saint Petersburg from bondage, as it was called at the time of the Tsar. On the contrary.

The ordinary Soviet man lived in fear and in long queues due to the supply shortages in the country. The then ruling Leonid Ilyich Brezhnev, who ruled with a form of concrete-head communism, was never able to get food shortages under control. Only the Politburo and the functionaries were living in havoc.
