My German Jewish parents, in Berlin, were about as assimilated to
German
society as one could be.  They almost never visited a synagogue.  They
spoke no language other than German.  They thought that Jews who had
immigrated to Germany from Poland were, speaking politely, ungebildet,
uncultured.  And about Zionism, they held a polite but firm distance.
Until about 1934, Christmas was celebrated in our house, to be
replaced by
Hanukah only after Hitler taught them, around 1935, that we were,
after
all, Jewish.
 
But despite these German proclivities, the word Naumannianer (follower
of
Max Naumann) was always a term of derision in our house.  A Jew who
tries
to be a Nazi ?  VerrÃ¼ckt.  Crazy.  And that may well be the most
charitable judgement that history now has for Max Naumann, founder,
protagonist, and leader of the Verband nationaldeutscher Juden (VnJ).
One
of the very few Jewish line officer in the Kaiser's Army, Naumann felt
strongly that he was German, very very German, right-wing German, and
he
felt gravely hurt that the emerging right-wing movement of young
Germans
after WWI considered him, a Jew, to be outside their Volk.
 
Solution:  a movement, VnJ, started in 1921, with the following
theory:
yes, it's true, many Jews are in fact SchweinehÃ¼nde, just as the
anti-
Semites say they are, but those are the Ostjuden, the Jews from Poland
and
parts East, not the truly deutsche Juden (us), who are in fact good
Germans, very good Germans.  So Naumann advocated: a) true Germans
like
himself need to vote for the  Nazis (in 1932); b)  Eastern European
Jews
need to be expelled from German territories; and  c) (once the Nazis
were
in power), the Zionist Organization of Germany needs to be outlawed.
Dr.
Naumann also sent a personal letter to Hitler (retrieved by my late
friend
Klaus Herrmann), which respectfully suggested to the FÃ¼hrer that the
good
German Jews (but not, of course, the Jews of Eastern origins) be
drafted
into the Wehrmacht together with their Aryan Volksgenossen.  Since the
FÃ¼hrer never deigned to reply to communications from members of
inferior
races, Dr. Naumann's letter remained unanswered.  However, the Nazi
government took enough notice of the VnJ to make sure that it was
outlawed
before other Jewish groups.  Dr. Naumann was briefly arrested but was
then
released to die a natural death in 1939.
 
We now live in times of renewed onslaught against the Jewish people,
and
Naumann-like characters have again arisen to to urge the enemies of
the
Jews to proceed more energetically than these enemies are inclined to
do
at the moment.  In the video below, we have a Dr. Norman Finkelstein,
no
less a Doctor than Naumann, urge the Hezbollah to act with greater
military resolve against Israel:  "Israel has to suffer a military
defeat," he opines.
 
Has Doctor Finkelstein heard of Doctor Naumann ?  That is not likely,
given Doctor Finkelstein's reluctance to give much thought to Jewish
history.  But that is neither here nor there.  The two Doctors are
related
by a common commitment to harm their own people.
