To view the pornographic comic book, “I Was Colonel Schultz’s Private Bitch,” researchers must request special permission at the National Library of Israel in Jerusalem.
After Israeli media deemed the 1962 pocketbook worthy of “extermination,” the government issued orders to confiscate and destroy every copy of the prisoner-of-war-camp rag. So inflammatory was “Colonel Schultz” that newspaper Yediot Ahronot accused the Nazi-inspired “Stalag” genre from which it came of spawning “immorality” among the young generation.
In dozens of Stalag plots, POW camps run by dominatrix-like SS women are overrun by tormented male inmates, usually British or American soldiers. The men proceed to torture, rape and murder their former captors, some of whom were based on actual Nazis including “the Beast of Belsen,” Irma Grese, and Hitler’s acclaimed “Triumph of the Will” director, Leni Riefenstahl.
“A true and brutally honest story of the lives of male captives bound by sadistic girls,” read the description of some Stalags. “Their entire essence is based on the brimming lust for the blood of others, for deriving sadistic pleasure from their pain, and for exploiting the manhood of the captive at their mercy,” read the teaser.
The Stalags’ popularity cannot be overstated. The most popular title, Stalag 13, sold 25,000 copies to a population the size of today’s Tel Aviv, which is a whopping market penetration. Also, Stalags were the top reading material for 18-year old Israeli boys in 1963, according to a Hebrew University survey.
