Kurzfassung:
Discusses the views of peace activists Peter Rubeau and Wolfgang Westermann who attributed NATO rearmament policy to the thirst for revenge of the American Jewish lobby; Franz Alt, who warns that those who do not free themselves from the vengeful Old Testament God in favor of the God of love threaten a nuclear Holocaust; and feminists Hanna Wolff and Christa Mulack. The latter interprets the killing of Christ as destruction of the femininity of God, and persecution of Jews and the Holocaust as a punishment. These ideas are derived from Jung, whose hostility to the material and physical also influenced the ecological movement, some of whose leaders express typical antisemitic fears of modern technology and urbanization. Some leftists have rediscovered German nationalism and blame the Jews for the cosmopolitanism of the German Left. Links these ideas, which blame the Jews for their own destruction, with left-wing anti-Zionism and suggests possible psychological and theological forces behind them.
