The castle above the clouds
Did Gestapo take the name for Euthanasia program 14f13 (1) from the year of death of Jacques de Molay (1265-1314)(2)? There are many stories and legends about castles, and the people, who lived in them. Do you know that the grandmaster of Normandy Templars Jacques de Molay went to a bonfire in the year 1314, and the horrifying detail in history is that Nazi governments "Euthanasia" or killing operation Action14f13 has got the same numbers, what are the years of the death of Jacques de Molay? Is this thing coincidence or made in purpose remains a mystery.
This page is an interesting image of the castle above the clouds, and I think that it would be interesting to think about people, who might live in that castle all their live. In this case, we would handle the thing, what is called as "grown in the bottle". That means that if the person is closed in that castle for all their life, they would think that the entire world is this castle. And in this perspective, the other people are like aliens to them.
And that is the reason, why castles were built. Their mission was to isolate the noblemen from ordinary people. And this isolation meant that those people were able to serve their superiorities, bu that isolation also made easy to control the military officials by using fear. If the person, who was in charge of the castle would not do what the higher rank official want, that thing caused that the rebellious person would be arrested.
But the thing that we are calling as isolation made also easy to control those people, who ruled the force. They needed money and food for a living, and this is the reason, why those castles are so effective tools for isolation and control. When we are thinking about the people, who lived in those castles, they might think that ordinary people were some kind of barbarians.
The thing is that those people knew, that they were acting wrong, but that thing turns to hate and fear. The thing is that the taxes, what the king was collected through those castles, and that hide the role of the king. And sometimes the people, who lived in the castles were prosecuted and convicted about stealing money from the king. But the reality was that this kind of case was meant for offering the sacrificed gift for people.
And one of those cases is claimed to be the case of Elizabeth Báthory. The thing, in this case, was that this woman was not rougher than any other noble person in that kingdom. And also people claim that the prince of Hungary had debt from that family, which means that people sometimes compare that case with the case of Templars.
They were arrested because they were officially revolt against the King of France. But the real reason could be that many noblemen in Europe were lent money from that organization. But who gave that money to Templars? Were those soldier-monks representatives of the Hansa, and that money belonged to that powerful organization of tradesmen.
Templars could be suitable middlemen between Hansa and the customers of that bank, and that means that there could be people, who will not want to pay back those lendings. And maybe Templars didn't tell the origin of that money to the king, who thought that he must not pay that money back. So the prosecutions were the usury, and of course blasphemy. That thing caused, that three Templars sent to a bonfire in 1314.
Sometimes have been claimed that Nazis took the name for their Euthanasia or killing program 14f13 from this case. But that thing can be pure coincidence.
