there are tons, and I only can think of one that I know for sure:

"1... 2... Tot" there's a sample from Apocalypse Now when that one stoned black soldier is a firing rocket launcher from his bunker at night.


"one final moment" i assume is from the Jonestown Tape but it sounds different than what I remember.

I really would like to know where any other samples come from, especially the one used in "Moral Rear."

if you know, would you care to share?

Moral Rear: intro is DeNiro in The Deer Hunter. 

"Mein Fuhrer, I can walk!" is from Dr. Strangelove

the spoken samples on the intro of "Harmony" and "I accuse myself of the following crimes" on the track "deliberate" are from the movie version of 1984 with John Hurt.

I can't think of any others right now...

Hate - Tim Roth's speech in Made in Britain (my favorite sample they've used)

that's right, i knew that one too! Also a great movie, by a great filmmaker.

ARKHE

"We came to wreck everything, and ruin your lives" - where's that from? HUMAN REMAINS used it as well. Maybe it's not GO but ANENZEPHALIA though, too early in the morning to be sure about anything...

Hakaristi

Yeah, GO - God Sent Us. From Romper Stomper.

The intro to "Hail America" is from JFK's inaugural address:

The final spoken sample & the laughing lock groove on The Truth Will Make You Free are from the German movie Stalingrad.

The crowds singing, ululations, clapping, drumming, etc. in "Who Wants To Be King" on Truth are from Lawrence of Arabia (as Lawrence's war party sets out for Aqaba).

The German samples on "Keiner Kommt Zurück" from Leichenlinie are examples of propaganda & psywarfare conducted by the Soviet Red Army & German Communists during the Battle of Stalingrad against the German 6th Army who were trapped in "the cauldron" (der Kessel) towards the end of the battle.  As described in the book Stalingrad: das Drama by Guido Knopp (C. Bertelsmann, Munich, 2002, pp. 273-4), (my poor translation):
"Walter Ulbricht, the later state and party leader of East Germany, worked to help move the German 6th Army to surrender.  They created half-hour entertainment programs--music, poems, songs--all the while interrupted with propaganda slogans.  Added to the colorful mixture were one-sided snippets of information.  The programs were then pressed onto records which could be played on mobile grammaphones.  Large loudspeakers were put on trucks or sleds and planted near the German front lines so that the mobile propaganda units could blast their slogans over the battlefield."

My best translation of the sample heard in the track: "(to the????) Hitler Army...(our fighting force/kampfkraft??)? will never return...our thousands of young soldiers freeze to death...they have no hope...everyday, ten thousand more sink into (???)-graves...yes, Hitler is the (a??) greatest criminal responsible."  This is juxtaposed at the end of the track with samples from a speech by you-know-who, seemingly directed to such propaganda: "they don't belong to our society...whoever pays attention to the words of the enemy is a traitor to our cause..."

edit:
On the new LP, "Denard" is based around a sample from Malcolm X's "the Ballot or the Bullet" speech:

"Prince" is Erik Prince, the founder of Blackwater, probably from the Congressional hearings regarding Blackwater employees massacring unarmed civilians in Baghdad....

This is an older topic, but I recently went searching for the Genocide Organ track which sampled A Disney WWII propaganda cartoon.

After a bit of searching, I identified the track as GOVC from the :REMEMBER: set. Refer to the intro: :REMEMBER: - GOVC

This is the cartoon it was lifted from – refer to timestamp 6:40:



I also previously collated the following list for an article I wrote, so am documenting it below. Some samples have already been identified above.

Leichenlinie (1989), 1...2... Tot. This debut album contains the first of many threads which appear to engender a strong anti-American stance. Here a sample of a taunting Viet Cong soldier is used ("Hey G.I.! Fuck you!") from Apocalypse Now (1979).

Leichenlinie, Face of Horror. A lengthy monologue from Apocalypse Now involving the main protagonist Colonel Kurtz, which highlights his wartime recollections and personal philosophy.

Mind Control (1995), Hail America. A speech sample of President John F Kennedy, in which he forcefully declares the United States' position of regional dominance and the intent to oppose any acts of aggression or subversion.

Remember (1997), Slap in your Face. An audio sample reading a passage from Herman Melville's Moby Dick, where the (out of context) quote references personal spirit and dedication to a singular conquest or ideal.

The Truth Will Make You Free (1999), Harmony. A monologue is sampled from the 1984 film adaptation of George Orwell's classic novel Nineteen Eighty-Four: "This is our land: a land of peace, and of plenty; a land of harmony and hope. This is our land. These are our people: the workers, the strivers, the builders. These are our people: the builders of our world, struggling, fighting, bleeding, dying: on the streets of our cities, and on the far-flung battlefields, fighting against the mutilation of our hopes and dreams. Who are they?" This sample is then juxtaposed with a sample of Peter Sellers in Dr. Strangelove (1964). The shouted sample of "Mein Führer - I can walk!" is repeated throughout. Is black humour the intent, or perhaps the intentional baiting of critics of the group?

The Truth Will Make You Free, Turn you into Gas. Another monologue sampled from the film adaptation of Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four states: "We do destroy the heretic because he resists us. As long as he resists us we will never destroy him. We will make him one of ourselves before we kill him. We will make his brain perfect, before we blow it out. Then when there is nothing left, we shall lift you clean out of history. We shall turn you into gas and pour you into the stratosphere. Nothing will remain. Not a name in a register. Not a memory."

DVD Live in Japan 2003/2007 (2009), A Peculiar Crusade. Includes a sample from a 1945 instructional film for US soldiers, Your Job in Germany, which states: "Every German is a potential source of trouble. Therefore there must be no fraternisation with any of the German people. 'Fraternisation' means making friends. The German people are not our friends". For Genocide Organ's outwardly apparently anti-American stance, this sample functions to clearly demonstrate militaristic propaganda and societal control from an Allied standpoint.

LP Live in Japan 2003/2007 (2009), Industrial Strife and Hail America. A sample is used from a Pentagon ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery on September 12, 2002, where (former) Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld states: "They were dedicated to their cause of freedom. Young and old, their lives and their deaths, gave birth to a new pride and patriotism that has rekindled the flame of freedom across this land. They will be remembered. We will not forget".

-------------

Lastly, someone who I can't remember had worked out that the song 'Its Over' from Under-Kontrakt reuses a Roy Orbison lyric where the line "your baby doesn't love you anymore" is changed to "your country doesn't want you anymore".

There are many more juicy samples to be identified - so add there here if not already included.

On the Death Zones album, the Identity Politics features a samples from a documentary on African pirates: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfanBWX3Fwg you can hear said sample at 13m17s

I still remember this friend knowing absolutely nothing about Power Electronics but being very interested in this kind of themes. As soon as this track started playing, he immediately recognized where the sample was taken from. Great time!
