Hitler Lives By Rosalie Allen
We hear lots of talk todayUp and down life's broad highwayAbout whether Hitler died in old BerlinHere's one thing I'm telling youYou can bet your life it's trueIf we forget our boys then Hitler lives againHitler lives... if we hurt our fellow manHitler lives... if we forgetThose who fought were heroes, diedThat our flag might float on highIf we forget, Hitler lives, Hitler lives
Hitler’s Eagle’s Nest was largely destroyed by fire on the night of October 23, 2026, as roughly 200 firefighters struggled against snow, wind, and intentional remote access. A 33 year old German man with local ties was detained on suspicion of arson and showed signs of mental illness while investigators checked for a political motive.
This fits a wider pattern of Marxist attacks on monuments and heritage destroying the past to control the future. On October 17, masked rioters in Limoges set the 1883 Hôtel de Ville ablaze, collapsing its roof and bell tower. The Roman Coliseum infiltrated by rioters. The Louvre threatened.
The recent surge of criminal gangs disappearing important art of Western Civilization adds to the fire in the dustbin of history. ISIS’s 2015 systematic smashing of Assyrian and Akkadian statues and reliefs in the Mosul Museum and at Nimrud remains a stark example of deliberate iconoclasm. Wars compound the losses, cultural sites damaged or looted in Ukraine, Gaza, Sudan, Lebanon, and Iran erase irreplaceable records. The growing cumulative? Societies lose tangible anchors of Civilizational memory faster than it can be protected or restored.
The authorities are losing the battle. None of it slows the accelerating tempo against small museums, isolated historic buildings, and monuments amid organized crime, civil unrest, and ideological hostility. The Eagle’s Nest fire is only the latest high profile case. It will not be the last.
