I was watching the movie "American History X" the other day (for the 3rd time... since it was TV prime-time), and this time I noticed the lyrics that one of the characters in it, "Seth", sings:

"My eyes have seen the glory of the trampling at the zoo, / We've washed ourselves in niggers blood and all the mongrels too, / We've taken down the zog machine Jew by Jew by Jew, / The white man marches on!"

Now my obvious question is, what the hell is a zog machine?

It seems to me it may have been an abbreviation or a trademark for Zyklon B gas, which was the main agent used by the Nazis in their death camps once they got them really rolling.

But the context was supect, so I did some looking around. ZOG stands for Zionist Occupation Government, stemming from an accusation by or belief oin the part of neo-fascists that there is a Zionist conspiracy to take over if not the whole world at least the government of the United States. And that would make more sense than the abbreviation for Zyklon, which I still think I saw somewhere or other.

Then there was Zog, king of hmmm was it Romania or Albania? One of them -nias. But the ZOG machine would most likely be from Zionist Occupied Government.

Wow, that link is spot-on, tsuwm, thanks. Also made me think I should've perhaps posted a warning: so sorry if the quote/lyrics offended anyone.

Thanks for that etymology bit, teD.

Yes, most of the definitions I got for "Zog" were of him... "president of Albania from 1925 to 1928 and king from 1928 to 1939..."

Bunch of useless dictionaries...

I respectfully disagree:

We're taking down the zog machine . . ..

To me that is more likely to mean we are taking down the Zionist Occupation Government machine by killing the people who are operating it, not taking down the machine spitting out zyklon b. Why would the neo-fascists want to celebrate taking their killing machine down?

well i was pondering about the lyrics also we'v taken down the zog machine jew by jew by jew a zog machine was basicly a gas chamber used to kill the jews so what does it all mean why would they want to F@#$ up their own killing machine and they sure as hell would'nt used jews so maybe on the other hand we've taken down the Zog Machine Jew by Jew by Jew meaning they have revealed it and made it a true killing machine by killing jews who knows!!!

ZOG is the short hand for Zionist Occupation Government. Trust me I am majoring in The History of World War II the after affects with a minors in Race Relations and Racist Propaganda. Skin heads believe that there is a this whole conspericy working against them and it is all from the govenment and they must destroy it before it destroys them and what they stand for "The master Race". The song is by a band called Skrewdriver, they are a skin head band from the south.
