A fantastic book. Hubertus Hoffmann knows how to describe the genius of a man, who has influenced the thinking and planning of the Pentagon for several decades, probably more than anyone before him. Only history will tell what the consequences of his ominous presence have been.

Fritz Kraemer Fritz Kraemer is more up-to-date than ever. This book is a monument to a man for whom values - a moral-ethical system of coordinates and convictions - comprised the hallmark of his life, values that Fritz Kraemer would never surrender under any circumstances. People of his calibre are the exception in all ages, but today among our superficial, value-free, "me" generation they ought to be a protected species. I think it is high time to remember Fritz Kraemer and to take this book to heart.

I am deeply impressed with your commitment to remember and honour several former Jewish lawyers from Koblenz. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the initiator Joachim Henning, judge at the Higher Administrative Court in Koblenz, Germany, for his outstanding and praiseworthy commitment. This is soothing ointment for the open wounds of the Nazi time.
I would also like to thank Dr Lars Brocker, President of the Constitutional Court and Higher Administrative Court of the Federal State of Rhineland-Palatinate in Germany, Erich Jung, Chief Public Prosecutor, as well as First Prosecutor, Harald Kruse, for this important event entitled "Dr Georg Kraemer (1872 – 1942) and other Jewish Lawyers"....read more

After 74 years the spirit of legendary Pentagon geostrategist Dr. Fritz Kraemer (see www.worldsecuritynetwork.com/fritzkraemer) is back in the city he loved most: Rome. "In Italy my more stiff Prussian spirit was mellowed by the Italian way of living, thinking, emotions. When I came with my young Swedish wife Britta to the city at the Tiber river, we appreciated the friendly simple Italian people, who taught her cooking and supported us.", he told me. Visiting the cinema together with his blond wife, Italian men were whistling after the beauty who looked like Ingrid Bergmann....read more

Each time Pentagon strategist Dr. Fritz Kraemer spoke about the strained strategic relations between France and the US in NATO, he ended with the remark to French officers, "If our deterrence and defense strategies against the USSR go wrong, we will all hang next to each other." Times have changed however, and France is not only back in NATO, but also has evolved as an active and reliable partner in the Alliance, taking responsibility for global security, justice and human rights in places such as Libya first and now Mali......read more

At the U.S. Military Academy (USMA) at West Point, north of New York City, there are values instilled in cadets that revolve around "Duty, Honor, Country." Dr. Fritz Kraemer, a WWII Army officer and later one of the greatest Pentagon strategists, adopted that motto as his own. Armed with it as his moral code, he mentored Dr. Henry Kissinger and General Alexander Haig, each of whom went on to become U.S. Secretary of State, and he profoundly influenced Dr. Hubertus Hoffmann — founder of World Security Network. Such a moral code remains timeless, and at a recent gathering at West Point, Dr. Hoffmann shared with cadets and members of the faculty how it can influence "fresh and better" foreign and defense policy. Noted Hoffmann, "The current foreign policy is predominantly passive, dominated by talking and not doing. We adapt to negative reality in little slices instead of actively shaping it in a pre-emptive positive way. Thus, we lose influence and do not support the forces of freedom with deeds but just empty words, as in the "Arabellion.".....read more

Given their response, this was a "not to miss" event based upon the unique life of a man of honor, duty and values...read more
