Nations arrive at certian points in their history because of past events. No matter how much the Dutch try to hide their horrible past, they cannot decry irrefutable evidence which points to thier horrendous crimes in World War 2, and also in colonial South Africa and Indonesia.

To understand the current level of anti-semitism and Islamaphobia, one has to look at the map of Europe. One look will help us understand Mr. Geert Wilders.

Between March and October 1943 the group, led by Wim Henneicke and Willem Briedé, was responsible for tracking down Jews in hiding and arresting them. The group arrested and “delivered” to the Nazi authorities 8,000-9,000 Jews. Most of them were deported to Westerbork concentration camp and later shipped to and murdered in Sobibor and other German extermination camps. The bounty paid to Henneicke Column members for each captured Jew was 7.50 guilders (equivalent to about US$47.50). The group, consisting of 18 core members, ended its work and was disbanded on 1 October 1943. However, the Column’s leaders continued working for the Central Bureau for Jewish Emigration tracking down hidden Jewish property.

Before Germany retreated from the Netherlands (May 1945), Wim Henneicke was assassinated by the Dutch resistance in December 1944 in Amsterdam. Willem Briedé escaped the country and settled in Germany. In 1949 he was tried by a Dutch court in absentia and received the death penalty. The sentence was never carried out; Briedé died of natural causes in Germany in January 1962.The history of the Henneicke Column was researched by Dutch journalist Ad van Liempt, who in 2002 published in the Netherlands A Price on Their Heads, Kopgeld, Dutch bounty hunters in search of Jews, 1943.

Dutch historians are currently revising the popular view of the relationship between the Netherlands and Germany’s Nazis during World War II. Contrary to the popular belief on collaboration, anticommunism in the Netherlands led to close Dutch-German collaboration and prewar arrests of Marxists and Jews. Jan Herman Brinks examines the Dutch myth of resistance and finds collaboration with the Nazis went right to the top.

Either the Dutch do not even know their own history or they are adept at hiding their Nazi past. It is a matter or record that the Dutch collaborated with the Nazis. It is amazing that many Dutch tried to obfuscate the issue of Dutch-Nazi collaboration by  trying to say that the Nazis “occupied” the Netherlands and that the Dutch were helpless.

The Dutch are unable to explain the rounding up, deportation and trasnportation of innocent and patriotic Dutch citizens who happened to be Socialist, Gypie or Jewish. The Dutch 11th. SS Panzergrenadier Division ‘Nordland’ was instrumental in helping the Nazis.

There is an overwhelming amount of evidence that has been accumalated on the Dutch collaboration with the Nazis.

11. SS-Freiwilligen-Panzergrenadier-Division Nordland was formed in 1943 to combine all the Scandinavian and Dutch volunteer formations, but the Dutch did in the end not end up in Nordland, instead it contained a majority of volksdeutsche (ethnic Germans) and a minority of Scandinavians. It was sent to Croatia in September 1943 for training where it was also used to fight partisans. It was sent to the Oranienbaum front near Leningrad in November and December 1943 and suffered heavy losses during the Soviet offensive in January 1944, fighting on the Luga River and at Narva before retreating to the Tannenberg Line July 1944 where it remained until September 1944 when it retreated into Latvia seeing action in the Kurland battles.

It was transferred to Pomerania in February 1945 where it fought until 19 March when it was evacuated and sent to the Oder front. Much of the surviving parts of Nordland were caught up in the battle for Berlin and only a few suvivors managed to break out of the city.

The surviving elemets of the divisions surrendered to the Allies at the Elbe river.

The honor title “Waräger” was suggested for this division, but Adolf Hitler decided against that name in favour of Nordland.

Nobel Laureate Is Accused Of Nazi Collaboration
Dutch university strips the name of Peter J. W. Debye from one of its scientific institutes
William G. Schulz

DebyeDocumentary evidence that chemistry Nobel Laureate Peter J. W. Debye may have been a Nazi collaborator in Berlin in the 1930s has led a university in the Netherlands to remove his name from its Debye Institute of Physics & Chemistry of Nanomaterials & Interfaces. Another university in Maastricht, the Netherlands, has reportedly stopped distributing a Debye scientific award.Utrecht University spokesman Ludo Koks says a book about physics Nobel Laureate Albert Einstein, published in January, led to the university’s decision to “abandon” the Debye name from its physics and chemistry institute. Evidence in the book, he says, includes a letter that Debye signed in 1938 in which he orders, in the name of the German authorities, Jewish coworkers of the German Physical Society in Berlin to leave the organization.“The University Board contacted the Netherlands Institute for War Documentation (NIOD) to verify this,” Koks says. “NIOD found it reliable.”But not everyone at Utrecht University agrees with the decision: “The decision of the Board to abandon the name of Professor Debye is far too premature,” says Gijs van Ginkel, senior managing director of the (former) Debye Institute. “It is not based on sound historical investigations, which also take into account the circumstances in Germany in the period 1938-45. Actually, I consider this decision to be faulty on the basis of our present knowledge, and I am also of the opinion that it damages unnecessarily the reputation of Professor Debye and his family, the interests of the Debye Institute, and those of the scientific community as a whole.”“Debye can hardly be called a Nazi collaborator just because he accepted the directorship of the then-new Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Physics in 1936,” says historian Mark Walker of Union College, Schenectady, N.Y. Walker has written about the German Physical Society under National Socialism. He continues, “If this was the standard, then almost every scientist who remained in Germany was a collaborator. It is also true that Debye in no way resisted or opposed Nazi policies.”Debye, who died in 1966, won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1936 for his contributions to the study of molecular structure, primarily his work on dipole moments and X-ray diffraction. According to several biographies, Debye left Nazi Germany for the U.S. in 1939 after he refused to become a German citizen. In 1940, he became head of the chemistry department at Cornell University, which became a leader in solid-state research largely due to his influence.The book, available only in Dutch, is “Einstein in the Netherlands” by Berlin-based science writer Sybe I. Rispens. Rispens tells C&EN that his archival research on Einstein and his relationship with Debye reveals that “Debye showed himself to be an extreme opportunist during the Nazi period.” As in the letter expelling Jews from the physics institute that Debye directed, Rispens says, Debye, in most of his correspondence, “shows himself as a willing helper of the regime, signing dozens of letters with ‘heil Hitler.’ There are no signs that he acted involuntarily or was threatened by the Nazis.”

The American Chemical Society presents a Peter Debye Award in Physical Chemistry sponsored by DuPont. ACS Grants & Awards Chair C. Gordon McCarty says, “The ACS Board Committee on Grants & Awards is aware of the situation and the developing story and is considering what the impact will be on the ACS national award named for Peter Debye.”

At Cornell University, Paul L. Houston, who is Peter J. W. Debye Professor of Chemistry, says, “I find the allegations to be at odds with what I do know about Debye. There are stories here about his anti-Nazi stance–that it caused him to lose being head of the Berlin Institute and convinced him to stay at Cornell after his time as Baker lecturer here. In addition, unlike some of its Ivy League colleagues during that period, Cornell was ahead of the curve in making Jewish faculty appointments. Many of my older Jewish colleagues were here when Debye decided to stay or were even appointed by Debye when he became chair.”

“The University of Utrecht is fully aware of the eminent scientific work of Peter Debye,” Koks says. “Moreover, historical research is needed to fully understand Debye’s role before and during the Second World War. Still, the University Board thinks, with due observance of recent knowledge, the name of Debye is no longer compatible with the image of one of our leading research institutes.”

NORDLAND REENACTORS: We portray the 11th. SS Panzergrenadier Division ‘Nordland’ which was the first international Waffen-SS Division which included Norwegians, Danes, Dutch, Estonians, Finns, French, Swedish, Swiss, and approximately 6 British volunteers. We are based in Pittsburg, Kansas and the Kansas City area with members in Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma.We do not endorse nor do we tolerate the political, Anti-Semitic or racist philosophy of any past or present fascist organizations.A member must join the World War II Historical Reenactment Society. We strive to make as accurate an portray of the period as we can. Members will have to purchase the proper uniforms and field equipment. Other members will assist you in obtaining these items.
NORDLAND: A BRIEF HISTORY
The SS-Standarte Nordland was established within a week of the occupation of Norway and Denmark, so young men from these two counties could train for police duties in their respective Homelands. The Norwegians received training in Austria. In January 1941, recruitment intensified for the Nordland Regiment. These volunteers were mainly devout Anti-Communist who saw the Red Menace as a reality. An ominous threat to their Homeland and way of life. Stalin’s unprovoked attack on Finland had angered the Norwegians, thus they joined the ‘Crusade Against Bolshevism’. In February 1941 Germania, Nordland, Westland Regiments were incorporated to form the 5th SS ‘Wiking’. Nordland as part of Wiking took part in the start of ‘Operation Barbrossa’ the invasion of Russia. In June of 1941 Nordland took part in the fighting in the Uman pocket. July 8,1941 Wiking’s HQ at Toratsch was overrun, Nordland and Germania were engaged in bitter fighting.
On September 6-7, Nordland along with Westland and Germania captured the heights at Kamenka, seizing over 5,000 Soviet prisoners. Then, in February-March of 1943, Nordland was withdrawn from Wiking to form the 11th. SS Freiwilligen Panzergrenadier Division Nordland. Nordland carried the widest range of nationalities to be found in any single Waffen-SS division. After training in Croatia in January of 1944, it was attached to Army Group North on the eastern front in an attempt to prevent the Soviet breakout of the siege of Leningrad. It was then used as a rear guard in the grueling two week retreat of the III Panzer Corps, to the city of Narva, in Estonia. Nordland then took a very active part in the famous “Battle of the European SS” in and around Narva. During this fighting, Nordland suffered heavy casualties from taking part in several hand-to-hand actions. Nordland lost all of their tanks and armored fighting vehicles and had to fight on as infantry. In September of 1944, after a four day force march, the division arrived from Narva to Riga where its arrival stopped the encirclement of the German 13th. Army. Nordland then withdrew into the Courland Pocket, and from there, it was evacuated to Germany. Nordland saw heavy fighting around Danzig, Settin, and Stargard. Finally, the division was ordered to the defense of Berlin on April 14, 1945. There, the division fought its last battle, from which few survived.The 11th. SS Nordland was a full strength, well equipped unit which included the 11th. Panzer Abteilung “Hermann von Salza”. It acquired a total of thirty Knights Crosses, awarded to its members.NetherlandsThousands of Dutch volunteers were soldiers of the 11th SS Volunteer Panzergrenadier Division Nordland  (created in February 1943). The division participated in fights against Soviet army and was crushed in the Berlin battle in April-May 1945. SS-Freiwilligen Legion Niederlande, manned by Dutch volunteers, battled against the Soviet army beginning in 1941. In December 1944 it was transformed into the 23rd SS Volunteer Panzergrenadier Division Nederland, and participated in fights in Courland and Pomerania^[1].Concept and Formation
By 1943, the foreign formations of the Waffen-SS had established a record in combat. The 5th SS Panzergrenadier Division Wiking, a volunteer division, had been in action since 1940.However, the Wiking, whose enlisted men were predominantly Nordic volunteers, was officered by Germans. In February 1943, Hitler ordered the creation of an SS Division which would be officered by foreign volunteers. The Wiking’s SS-Panzer-Grenadier-Regiment Nordland, a Scandinavian volunteer regiment, was pulled out of the line to be used as a basis for the new division. The division was originally to receive the name Waräger (Varangians) but the name was rejected by Hitler himself. It was decided that the division was to continue using the already-existing regiment’s name, Nordland.The Nordland’s two Panzergrenadier regiments were also given titles. The regimental titles were a reference to the location where the majority of the regiment’s recruits were from, SS-Panzergrenadier Regiment 23 Norge (Norwegians) and SS-Panzergrenadier Regiment 24 Danmark (Danes).Despite most volunteers hailing from Scandinavia, the Nordland carried the widest range of nationalities found in any single division. By the end of the war, Danish, Hungarian, Dutch, Norwegian, Estonian, Finnish, French, Romanian, Spanish, Swedish, Swiss and British volunteers had either served in the division or been attached to it.After its formation in Germany, the division was attached to SS-Obergruppenführer Felix Steiner’s III (Germanic) SS Panzer Corps and was moved to occupied Croatia for training and to complete its formation. Soon after its arrival, the SS-Freiwilligen-Legion Niederlande was attached to the division and it began combat operations against Josip Tito’s partisans. In late November, the Danmark regiment was involved in heavy fighting with a force of 5,000 partisans near Glina. During this period, the Nordland’s Panzer Abteilung, SS-Panzer Abteilung 11, was given the honour title Hermann von Salza in honour of the fourth Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights (b.1179-d.1239).In January 1944, orders were received to move the division to the Oranienbaum front near Leningrad, under the command of Generalfeldmarschall Walter Model’s Army Group North.
[edit] Leningrad to Narva – Battle of the European SS
Nordland, along with the rest of III (Germanic) SS Panzercorps arrived at the front near Leningrad and was almost immediately put into action against Soviet attacks to break the German encirclement of the city. After the encirclement was broken, the Nordland effected a 60 kilometer fighting withdrawal to Oranienbaum. On the 14th of January, a Soviet assault succeeded in collapsing the German front, and the Nordland again fought its way back to the city of Narva in Estonia, where a new line of defence was being organised. In early February, the Soviets began their attacks towards the city and the Battle of Narva began.The battle has come to be known as the Battle of the European SS because the majority of the defenders were European volunteers. Joining the Nordland were the formations from all over Europe. The Dutchman of the 4th SS Volunteer Panzergrenadier Brigade Nederland, the Walloons of the 5th SS Volunteer Sturmbrigade Wallonien, the Flemings of the 6th SS Volunteer Sturmbrigade Langemarck, the Estonians of the 20th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS (1st Estonian), as well as regular German formations. Altogether, the defenders of the Narva River line amounted to 50,000 men. Against them, the Soviets threw 200,000 men of the Leningrad Front.The original attack was launched on February 13th, with the Soviets attacking right across the line, as well as launching an amphibious assault from the Baltic near Mereküla. The Nordland annihilated the Soviet landing force. Over the next five months, the European SS held against the Soviet attacks, the Nordland seeing very heavy fighting. In March, the Soviets managed to destroy the Narva Bridge, cutting off the troops on the far side of the river. The men of Nordland’s Pioneer Battalion quickly rebuilt the bridge while under heavy fire. The launch of Operation Bagration in June 1944 resulted in Army Group North becoming trapped in the Kurland Pocket. After months of heavy fighting, the Hermannsberg bridge over the Narva was blown and the defenders were moved 25 kilometers west to the Tannenberg Line.
[edit] Tannenberg Line – Courland Pocket
The Tannenberg Line anchored on three strategic hills. Running west to east, these were known as Hill 69.9, Grenadier Hill and Orphanage Hill. From Orphanage Hill, the rear side of the town of Narva could be protected.From 27 July, Nordland fought alongside Sturmbrigade Langemarck and Kampfgruppe Strachwitz from the Grossdeutschland Division to keep control of Orphanage Hill. Despite the death of the Nordland’s commander, SS-Gruppenführer Fritz Scholz, who was killed in the fighting, and the subsequent deaths of the commanders of Norge and Danmark regiments, the division grimly held onto Orphanage hill, destroying 113 tanks on July 29th.On the 4th of August, men from Penal Company 103, a punishment company, were reinstated and absorbed into the Danmark regiment. The III (Germanic) SS Panzer Corps bled itself white defending the Tannenberg Line, until on September 16th it was pulled back into Latvia to defend the capital, Riga. Riga fell on 12 October, and by the end of the month all Waffen SS units had been withdrawn into what was known as the Courland Pocket.

From late October to December 1944, the Nordland fought fierce defensive battles in the pocket, and by early December the divisional strength was down to 9,000 men. In January 1945, the division was ordered to the Baltic port of Libau, where it was shipped out of the pocket to Pomerania. The division disembarked at Stettin, with the Panzer Abt Hermann von Salza being sent on to Gothafen for refitting. In late January, Nordland was assigned to Steiner’s 11th SS Panzer Army, which was now forming in anticipation of the defense of Berlin.
[edit] East Prussia and Pomerania
In early February, the refitted Panzer Abt returned to the division, and a trickle of reinforcements began arriving. Among these units was the platoon-sized British Free Corps, a British Waffen-SS formation.[citation needed]

On February 16th, the division was ordered on the offensive as a part of Operation Sonnenwende, the operation to destroy a Soviet salient and to relieve the troops besieged in the town of Arnswalde. The offensive had been conceived by Generaloberst Heinz Guderian as a massed assault all along the front but had then been reduced by Hitler to the level of a local counterattack. Initially, Nordland’s attack achieved a total tactical surprise and the division soon advanced to the banks of Lake Ihna in all sectors. However, as the Soviets realised what was happening, resistance grew stiffer and the advance began to slow. On the 17th, the division reached Arnswalde and relieved the exhausted garrison. Over the next few days the town was secured and the surviving civilians were evacuated. Soon, however, strong Soviet counterattacks halted the divisions advance, and Steiner called off the attack, pulling the III (Germanic) SS Panzer Corps back to the Stargard and Stettin on the northern Oder River.

By the 21st the conclusion was made that no more useful gains could be made against an increasingly powerful enemy without undue casualties so Steiner ordered a general withdrawal back to the north bank of the Ihna. Between the 23rd and 28th III (Germanische) SS-Panzerkorps made a slow withdrawal to the area around Stargard and Stettin on the northern Oder River.

The Soviet offensive of 1 March pushed Nordland along with the rest of the depleted III (Germanic) SS Panzerkorps before them. In a desperate fighting withdrawal, the Nordland and the rest of III (Germanic) SS Panzerkorps inflicted heavy casualties on the Soviets, but by March 4, the division was falling back to Altdamm, the last defensive position east of the Oder itself. During the next two weeks, Nordland grimly held to the town, inflicting and suffering high casualties. On the 19th, the battered defenders fell back behind the Oder, the Danmark and Norge regiments had fought virtually to extinction. The division was ordered back to the area west of Schwedt-Bad Freinwalde for a refit.

During this time, the 33rd Waffen-Grenadier Division of the SS Charlemagne, a 300 man unit of French SS volunteers and the Spanish Volunteer Company of the SS No.101, a company of Spanish SS men were attached to the division. The division’s strength was replenished with the addition of several vehicles and some personnel from the Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine.
[edit] The Final Battle
On April 16, Nordland was ordered back into the line east of Berlin. Despite recent replenishment, the division was still grossly understrength and, with the exception of the French and Spanish, many of the new recruits had little if any combat experience. From the 17th to the 20th of April the division was involved in constant combat all along its front, and was pushed back into the city itself. By the 22nd, the Nordland had been pushed back to the Tiergarten in the centre of the city. During the next few days, the division ceased to exist as a cohesive unit.

The remains of Norge and Danmark regiments, along with elements of the Pioneer battalion, found themselves defending the bridges across the Spree. After a spirited but futile defence, the remnants of Nordland were pushed back into the Government District.

Meanwhile, the main Soviet assault was towards the Treptow Park area, where the rest of the Pioneer battalion and the few remaining tanks of Panzer abteilung (battalion) Hermann von Salza were defending. SS-Obersturmbannführer Kausch led the few tanks and armoured vehicles in a counterattack and succeeded in halting the enemy advance,[citation needed] at the cost of some of his last vehicles.

By the 26th, the defenders of the government district had been pushed back into the Reichstag itself. For the next few days, the few survivors of the division held out against overwhelming odds. On 30th April, the divisional commander received news of Hitler’s suicide and ordered those who were able to break out to the west. Several small groups managed to reach the Americans at on the Elbe’s west bank, but many more did not, among them the 3rd (Swedish) Company of the Reconnaissance abteilung who fought a desperate and ultimately useless battle to escape the surrounding Soviets, as described by Erik Wallin in the book ‘Twilight of the Gods’. Despite the temptation of a westbound breakout, most SS soldiers in Berlin on the night of the 1st of May 1945 decided to break out to the north, on the orders of Wilhelm Mohnke, who promised to lead the breakout from the front. However, whilst his loyal troops from the 1st SS Panzer Division Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler, and Nordland, were assembling near the Wierdammer bridge, some with wives and children, he had already made a hasty escape with some of the Führer’s closest staff, including Traudl Junge, Hitler’s famous secretary. Lacking any leadership, the breakout down Freidrichstrasse turned into a disorganised mob, which was quickly dispatched by Soviet amoured attacks. The Nordland’s last SdKfz 250 was knocked out by a Soviet soldier with a captured German Panzerfaust, and a picture of this vehicle has become a famous picture with regard to the battle.

On May 2nd, hostilities officially ended, by order of Helmuth Weidling, Kommandant of the Defence Area Berlin, and General of Artillery. All remaining pockets of resistance were mopped up by the Red Army and the 80,000 or so Prisoners of War were marched east. Most SS men, loyal to their oath to Hitler, had already either fought to the death or taken their own lives, a popular option considering the rumours circulating.

Of the few survivors who reached the Western Allies’ lines, most were handed over to their respective countries and tried as traitors, some serving prison time and a few even receiving the death penalty.
