[PAR] [TLE] The Beast Reawakens [SEP] The Beast Reawakens (later prints carried the subtitle Fascism's Resurgence from Hitler's Spymasters to Today's Neo-Nazi Groups and Right-Wing Extremists) is a 1997 book by investigative journalist Martin A. Lee, in which he tells the story of old-guard fascists' strategy for survival and the revival of fascism since 1944.  Special attention is given to ODESSA actions during the Cold War, international fascist networks, and political inroads to the right-wing mainstream.  The book opens with a quotation from T. E. Lawrence's "Seven Pillars of Wisdom" (1922), a favorite of Hitler's favorite commando, SS-Standartenführer Otto Skorzeny. [PAR] [TLE] ODESSA [SEP] The ODESSA is an American codename (from the German: "Organisation der Ehemaligen SS-Angehörigen", meaning: Organization of Former SS Members) coined in 1946 for a hypothetical Nazi underground escape plan at the end of World War II by a group of SS officers with the aim of facilitating secret escape routes.  The routes are also called ratlines.  The supposed goal was to allow the SS members to escape to Argentina, Brazil, or the Middle East under false names.  The American counterespionage unit searched for evidence it might have existed in 1945, but found no evidence for it.
