A real pity that the upcoming film on the July ’44 plot has the Scientology cultist Tom Cruise playing the role of Stauffenberg. There has been, understandably, much disgust and outrage about this in Germany. Scientology is not, justifiably, recognized as a “religion” in Germany. Germany had a previous terrible experience with another religious cult called Nazism, which you may have heard of . . .

Parabenizo e saúdo os familiares e amigos do coronel Stauffenberg por todos os atos de bravura e coragem que ele teve em favor da Alemanha e de toda a humanidade.
Ele foi um verdadeiro herói e nunca será esquecido. Seu exemplo na luta contra a tirania deveria ser seguido por todos os militares do mundo. Abraços do Brasil!!
