Matt Crypto on Edward Bellamy & Francis Bellamy

I work for the "Stop the Pledge" Foundation (STP), a non-profit group. They help to free Americans from the Pledge of Allegiance and its daily robotic chanting in unison on command in government schools (socialist schools). The pledge was the origin of Nazi salutes & Nazi behavior. Adolf Hitler & German national socialists borrowed the stiff-armed salute from the USA via Ernst Hanfstaengl, a Harvard grad.

Edward Bellamy (cousin of Francis Bellamy) was a socialist in the Nationalism movement. Francis Bellamy assisted Edward and authored the Pledge of Allegiance (1892), the origin of the stiff-armed salute adopted much later by the National Socialist German Workers Party. See the work of the symbologist Dr. Rex Curry.

The early pledge began with a military salute that was then extended out toward the flag. It was known as the Bellamy salute. In practice, the second gesture was performed palm-down with a stiff-arm when the military salute was merely pointed out at the flag. Thus, the military salute led to the Nazi salute in the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of the United States.

It was not an ancient Roman salute. That is a myth debunked by Dr. Curry, who showed that the myth came from the Pledge.

American national socialists (including Edward Bellamy), in cooperation with Madame Blavatsky and the Theosophical Society, popularized the use of the Swastika (an ancient symbol) as a modern symbol for socialism long before the symbol was adopted by the National Socialist German Workers Party (Nazis). http://rexcurry.net/book1a1contents-swastika.html

The Bellamys influenced the National Socialist German Workers Party and its dogma, rituals and symbols (including the modern use of the swastika as crossed S-letters for "Socialism" under German National Socialism). Similar alphabetical symbolism was used under the NSDAP for the "SS" division, the "SA," the "NSV," et cetera and similar symbolism is visible today as the Volkswagen VW logo.

The Bellamys wanted the government to take over all food, clothing, shelter, goods and services and create an "industrial army" to impose their "military socialism." See the video documentary at

It is the same dogma that led to the socialist Wholecaust (of which the Holocaust was a part): ~60 million killed under the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics; ~50 million under the Peoples' Republic of China; ~20 million under the National Socialist German Workers' Party. http://rexcurry.net/socialists.html

Today, the flag symbolizes authoritarianism in the USA. The historical facts above explain the enormous size and scope of government today, and the USA's police state, and why it is growing so rapidly.  They are reasons for minarchy: massive reductions in government, taxation, spending and socialism.

Rex Curry shows Pledge of Allegiance was origin of Nazi salute and Nazi behavior

Rex Curry showed that the Pledge of Allegiance was the origin of the Nazi salute and Nazi behavior

The Pledge of Allegiance was the origin of the Nazi salute and Nazi behavior (as shown in the discoveries of the historian Dr. Rex Curry).  http://youtu.be/mvDwL553pVM  The original pledge started with the speakers hand in the MILITARY SALUTE (not at his side), and during the pledge, when the speaker says "to my flag," the hand was SUPPOSED to be extended PALM UP toward the flag, but in practice students simply extended the military salute outward toward the flag, which was with the PALM DOWN. Yet, the palm-down way became the standard practice, and sometimes the military salute was dropped entirely, resulting in nothing but the stiff-armed salute that was exactly the Nazi salute (adopted later in Germany). The socialist Francis Bellamy wrote the pledge as part of a campaign for government to take over education, to take over all schools. And the whole thing did not become moot when Hitler came into power (1930-1933) and that is not when the gesture changed. The US's Nazi gesture for the pledge continued to be used for over a decade more and even beyond (even after Congress waded into the mess (1942). Roosevelt did not have anything to do with it other than being in office at the time. Everyone in the US did not immediately drop their beloved stiff-armed gesture because many protested "That is our gesture. We did it first." Of course the robotic chanting on command daily in government schools (socialist schools) outlasted German socialism, even after the gesture was changed to hide the pledge's putrid past.
