TRANSLATOR’S NOTE
Richard Coudenhove-Kalergi is perhaps one of the
most influential figures in modern European history who
most people have simply never heard of. His ideas
influenced political leaders and thinkers of the 20
th and 21
st
centuries while not being widely known to the general
masses. More often his life and ideas get caught up in a
swirl of intrigue and conspiracy. However well or ill-
intentioned his pan-European policies, it is clear that
Coudenhove-Kalergi’s vision for a united Europe has
captured the imaginations of people all across the
continent, whether or not they know the source. Richard Nikolaus Eijiro, Count of Coudenhove- Kalergi was born in 1894 to Heinrich von Coudenhove- Kalergi, an Austro-Hungarian diplomat, and Mitsuko
Aoyama, the daughter of a Japanese oil merchant, antiques- dealer and major landowner. Richard spent his days with
his siblings among the family estates in Ronsperg, today
known as Poběžovice, in the Czech Republic. Richard
received an education in a wide variety of subjects,
including languages and history. Owing to his ethnically
mixed heritage (his father being an Austro-Hungarian
citizen of Flemish and Greek descent, and his mother being
Japanese), Richard felt particularly cosmopolitan and
identified with a variety of cultures across Europe. Additionally, his experiences among Austro-Hungarian
elite society instilled in him aristocratic ideals. This
perspective on his own identity heavily influenced his ideal
of a unified European community based on cultural
commonalities. As a young man he travelled extensively, all the
while developing his ideas and writing. In 1923 he
established the Paneuropean Union, an organization for
European unification on which he would serve as president for 49 years. He published over thirty works and received
numerous awards and honours. Yet, for all this accolade,
few of Coudenhove-Kalergi’s works have been published
in English. Praktischer Idealismus is a compilation of three of
Coudenhove-Kalergi’s earliest works. It contains Adel
(Nobility, 1920), Apologie der Technik (In Defence of
Technology, 1922), and Pazifismus (Pacifism, 1924), each a
fairly short treatise on distinct aspects of European society
which Coudenhove-Kalergi felt required critical
examination in order to address the problems he believed
faced Europe after the Great War. The three, while separate, work well together in
exploring his vision for Europe, a vision of a prosperous
and peaceful European continent where all European
nations work together economically, politically, and
culturally to ensure mutual success. The book was released in 1925 and while support
for his ideas was slow to grow, grow it did. Coudenhove- Kalergi, through aristocratic connections, was able to
steadily garner support for his ideas. The Second World
War would put a temporary halt to his work, but
Coudenhove-Kalergi continued on in the post-war period. Various attempts at establishing a supranational
committee met with little success, but these initial attempts
lit the spark among supporters, and this inspiration would
ultimately lead to the creation of the European Union. Coudenhove-Kalergi, in writing this treatise, was
clearly influenced by the philosophies of Nietzsche and
Hegel. In Praktischer Idealismus Coudenhove-Kalergi uses
a Hegelian dialectic wherein he makes an argument by
presenting two opposing viewpoints. This makes for an
interesting writing style, but also has the downside of

forcing him to ignore, whether intentionally or not, viewpoints that would break away from the dialectical
framework. Richard von Coudenhove-Kalergi passed away in
1972 at the age of 77, cementing his legacy as a pioneer in
European political integration. Ultimately, this book, along with many of Richard
von Coudenhove-Kalergi’s works, place themselves as
required reading for anyone who wishes to understand the
dynamism of European thought and history. More can be read on Richard von Coudenhove- Kalergi’s life in the comprehensive biography Hitler's
Cosmopolitan Bastard: Count Richard Coudenhove- Kalergi and His Vision of Europe (Bond, 2021). This English translation of Praktischer Idealismus
is the product of several months of dedicated volunteer, non-profit research and translation work to ensure as clear
and complete a translation as possible. The original
German edition is no longer available in stores and, as
such, the document had to be sourced from a digital scan of
the 1925 edition. Poorly translated and truncated excerpts from this
work have been widely circulated across the Internet to
advance the idea of a Kalergi Plan, a theory which purports
a concerted effort by Coudenhove-Kalergi to bring about
the destruction of European cultures and peoples. As the
translator of this work, I remain intentionally neutral on the
matter. Rather, it is my desire to present the book in a
complete and well-translated format, containing footnotes
to expand on the text and to provide useful historical
context.
I expect that many readers will have found this
translation precisely because of their encounters with the
Kalergi Plan narrative. I ask that everyone who reads this
work go into it with a clear and open mind. While many may not agree with the ideas contained herein, it is
important that the words be read in their proper context. Even if the reader has not heard of the Kalergi Plan,
this work will have historical value as an influential treatise
on the concept of European unification and supranational
co-operation. Additionally, students of the inter-war period
of European history may find this literature of interest. Finally, when reading footnotes, where the notes
contain T/n, this denotes a note by the translator. Where an
asterisk is found (*), this denotes a footnote originally
placed by Coudenhove-Kalergi himself. Original
pagination is included within the text, inside square
brackets. Italicised words are italicised in the original. In
translating this important work, I have endeavoured to relay
the text as accurately as possible while maintaining
readability. An effort has been made to retain the German
sentence structure insofar as possible in English. As much
as possible, the same word in German will be rendered
consistently in English unless the context simply does not
allow it. In such cases, a footnote will make note of other
possible meanings. Should the reader find any spelling, grammar or
obvious translation errors, the translator can be contacted
by email.

He has gone suspiciously off radar i wonder is he up to something behind the scenes

About Louis Mountbatten
"His Brother, George, brought up Prince Philip in Germany after Philips Mother was sent into a mental Asylum in Switzerland, and his own father went off with another woman because his wife, Alice, believed She was the bride of Christ, and was diagnosed as a paranoid phscyzphrenic - She's since been entombed in the Mount of Olives.

Louis liked the "company" of young Indian peasant boys, as his wife waited outside their bedroom, when He was the Viceroy of India, then he took to the Kincora boys home in Belfast, and, in 1979, the IRA took him out completely.

His brother George was a "family man", who liked to create photo albums of the young kids and animals (beastiality) in his care. His albums ended up in a locked repository in the British Museum (courtesy of the "Duke of Edinburgh") and labelled as "unfit for public viewing"

So given the backgrounds of those with"influence" over the current KING and the grandfather of the current King's brother, is it any wonder that epstein got his way? And Camarthen Castle + young kids still remain in many old school memories from the early days of the current King, when He was The Prince of Wales? and of course, remember the apple never falls far from the tree. A lot of apples have become trees with new apples. It's long passed time for them all to go!"

Do the Irish people have a right to a homeland

- "as long as they can defend it"

"Ireland belongs to the Irish" said Pádraig Pearse

Ireland is bankrolled by depopulation drugs disguised as weight loss drugs. The scamdemic created addicts. No better way to finish them off than with experimental pharmaceuticals. Why does the once respected newspaper use a pseudonym of Cantillon for some articles? Cantillon was a French Irish economist and banker in the 18th century.

"Meanwhile, here's what an actual Catholic had to say about Zionism:

“We cannot give approval to this movement. We cannot prevent the Jews from going to Jerusalem, but we could never sanction it. The earth of Jerusalem, if it was not always holy, has been made holy by the life of Jesus Christ. I, as head of the church, cannot possibly say otherwise. The Jews have not recognized our Lord; we therefore cannot recognize the Jewish people.” - Pope Pius X "

"Pope Pius X rejected the Zionist movement, stating that while the Church could not prevent Jews from going to Jerusalem, it could not sanction their return to the land, as he believed it was made holy by Jesus Christ. He emphasized that because Jews had not recognized Christ, the Church could not recognize the Jewish people in this context.


Pope Pius X's Stance on Zionism
Meeting with Theodor Herzl

Pope Pius X met with Theodor Herzl, the founder of modern political Zionism, in January 1904. During this meeting, Herzl sought the Pope's support for the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. The Pope's response was clear: he could not support the Zionist movement. He stated, "We cannot prevent the Jews from going to Jerusalem, but we could never sanction it." He emphasized that the land of Jerusalem was sacred due to its association with Jesus Christ.

Theological Opposition
Pope Pius X's opposition to Zionism was rooted in theological beliefs. He expressed that because the Jewish people had not recognized Jesus as the Messiah, the Church could not recognize them as a people. This theological stance laid the groundwork for the Catholic Church's long-standing opposition to Zionism, which was seen as a challenge to the Church's authority and beliefs.

Impact on Catholic-Jewish Relations
The Pope's rejection of Zionism reflected broader Catholic attitudes of the time, which often viewed Jewish nationalism with suspicion. This stance contributed to a complex and often strained relationship between the Catholic Church and Jewish communities, particularly regarding the political aspirations of Jews in Palestine.

Evolution of the Church's Position
While Pope Pius X firmly opposed Zionism, the Catholic Church's position evolved over the decades. By the late 20th century, the Vatican began to recognize the importance of dialogue with Jewish communities and acknowledged the historical and religious significance of the land to both Jews and Christians."

Here's what an actual Catholic Pope had to say about Zionism:

“We cannot give approval to this movement. We cannot prevent the Jews from going to Jerusalem, but we could never sanction it. The earth of Jerusalem, if it was not always holy, has been made holy by the life of Jesus Christ. I, as head of the church, cannot possibly say otherwise. The Jews have not recognized our Lord; we therefore cannot recognize the Jewish people.” - Pope Pius X
