Blackletter or Gothic script, was used
throughout Western Europe from approximately 1150 to well into the 17th
century. It continued to be used for the
German language until the 20th century. On 1/3, 1941, a decree was given to switch to
European standard script. The Allies
further enforced this.
David Davies, 1st Baron Davies (5/11, 1880
– 6/16, 1944), was a politician and public benefactor, the
grandson of the industrialist, David Davies "Llandinam". From 1906 to 1929, he was in Parliament and
an active supporter of the League of Nations. In 1932 he established the New Commonwealth
Society for ‘the promotion of international law and order’, writing several
books on the right use of force, notably The Problem of the Twentieth Century
(1930), which was translated into German and other languages. His ideas had an impact on the writing of the
UN Charter, especially with regards to sanctions and the transition of national
armies to an international police. In
1941 Lord Davies wrote “Foundations of Victory” (London, Collins), in which he
tells the story of the concentration
camps in England.
Wunderwaffen
("wonder-weapons") Most
remained prototypes, or were developed too late. Axis engineers developed a sonic cannon that
could literally shake a person apart from the inside, but rifle, bazooka and
mortar rounds easily deformed the parabolic reflectors, rendering the wave
amplification ineffective. The Third
Reich further developed sonic weaponry, using parabolic reflectors to project
sound waves of destructive force.
Microwave Weapons were investigated together with the Japanese. Other weapons were two 33,550 and a 56,500
ton aircraft carriers; two H-44, a 140,000 ton battleships with eight 20 inch
guns; a ballistic missile U-boat; an air-independent propelled Type XVIII,
XXII, XXIV, XXVI U-boat; completely submerged Type XXI, XXIII, XXV U-boat
(Electric boat); Type XI U-boat designed to carry a floatplane; a
self-propelled anti-aircraft gun; an experimental tank destroyer; Super-heavy
tanks; Gliders; Piston engine aircraft; Jets and rocket-propelled aircraft;
Helicopters; Bombs and explosives (German nuclear energy project); Artillery

designed to focus sunlight onto specific locations on the Earth's surface;
Rifles; Directed-Energy weapons: Rheotron/Betatrons(electron accelerator to
pre-ionize ignition in Aircraft engines and bring planes down into the reach of
the FLAK. This was captured by the
Americans in Burggrub on April 14, 1945.
****The
Big Lie is a propaganda technique. The expression was coined by Adolf Hitler,
when he dictated his 1925 book Mein Kampf, for a lie so "colossal"
that no one would believe that someone "could have the impudence to
distort the truth so infamously." Hitler believed the technique was used by
Jews to unfairly blame Germany's loss in World War I on German Army officer
Erich Ludendorff.
“But it remained for the Jews, with their unqualified
capacity for falsehood, and their fighting comrades, the Marxists, to impute
responsibility for the downfall precisely to the man who alone had shown a
superhuman will and energy in his effort to prevent the catastrophe which he
had foreseen and to save the nation from that hour of complete overthrow and
shame. By placing responsibility for the loss of the world war on the shoulders
of Ludendorff they took away the weapon of moral right from the only adversary
dangerous enough to be likely to succeed in bringing the betrayers of the
Fatherland to Justice.
“All this was inspired by the principle--which is quite true
within itself--that in the big lie there is always a certain force of
credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily
corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or
voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more
readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves
often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale
falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal
untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to
distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be
so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and
will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the
grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been
nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all
who conspire together in the art of lying. -—Adolf Hitler , Mein Kampf, vol. I,
ch. X In that same chapter, Hitler
accused "the Jews" of their use of the Big Lie.
Later, Joseph Goebbels put forth
a slightly different theory which has come to be more commonly associated with
the expression "big lie." Goebbels wrote the following paragraph in
an article dated 12 January 1941, 16 years after Hitler's first use of the
phrase "big lie," titled "Aus Churchills Lügenfabrik" and
translated "From Churchill's Lie Factory." It was published in Die Zeit ohne
Beispiel. “The essential English
leadership secret does not depend on particular intelligence. Rather, it
depends on a remarkably stupid thick-headedness. The English follow the principle
that when one lies, one should lie big, and stick to it. They keep up their
lies, even at the risk of looking ridiculous.
In 1941, (Internet says) Hitler banned the Jewish community
in Poland from the observance of Purim. They were forbidden to read the Scroll
of Esther and the synagogues were closed on that day. (How did he do this in their neighborhoods?)
1941 At the 150th anniversary of Mozart’s death, Germany led
the Continent with festivals and events in nearly every city. Mozart was celebrated as a German-European.
What Makes Sammy Run? (1941) is a novel by Jew (&
communist) Budd Schulberg. Schulberg’s
father was a Hollywood mogul. It is a
rags to riches story chronicling the rise and fall of Sammy Glick, a Jewish boy
born in New York's Lower East Side who very early in his life makes up his mind
to escape the ghetto and climb the ladder of success. It was later made into a long-running
Broadway musical.
Adolf Wagner (10/1, 1890 -4/12, 1944) was
a German soldier and high-ranking Nazi Party official. Wagner angered Adolf Hitler in 1941 when he
insisted on removing crucifixes from Bavarian classrooms, which outraged the
Roman Catholic Church and the general public.
The opposition to this move was so strong Wagner was forced to rescind
the order, one of the circumstances of successful
public opposition in Nazi Germany.
Despite this faux pas, Hitler apparently remained on good terms with
Wagner. When Wagner died in April 1944,
Hitler made a rare public appearance to attend his lavish funeral, and
posthumously awarded him the German Order, the Nazi Party's highest decoration.

Jacob Thorkelson
(9/24, 1876 – 11/20, 1945) was a U.S. congressman Republican representative from
Montana from 3/3, 1939 until 3/1, 1941, Naval officer and medical doctor. Thorkelson was labeled as "rabidly
pro-fascist and anti-semitic" for his use of the Congressional Record to
reprint anti-British and anti-Jewish propaganda and his support for retired General
George Van Horn Moseley. Commentator
Walter Winchell called Thorkelson "the mouthpiece of the Nazi movement in
congress". Thorkelson later sued
Winchell for $1.8 million after being included by Winchell as one of a list of
"Americans We Can Do Without".
(Who won?)
Jeannette Pickering Rankin (6/11, 1880 – 5/18, 1973) was the first
woman in the US Congress. A Republican,
she was elected statewide in Montana in 1916 and again in 1940. A lifelong pacifist, she was one of the 50
members of Congress who voted against the entry of the US into World War I in
1917 and the only member of Congress who voted against declaring war after the
Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.

Germany was forced to invade
Greece because of the fiasco of the attempted Italian invasion through Albania,
of Greece. The British also had invaded
Greece. Germany had not wanted to enter
Greece. The Epistassia, the
four-member executive committee appointed annually by the Holy Community, asked
Hitler to place Mount Athos under his personal protection, and he agreed. It was known to all Greeks that the Germans
were not allowed to destroy Greece's archaeological and ecclesiastical
monuments.
Germans chased the British out of Greece in April 1941. The reality is that in the midst of the
worldwide conflict, despite a partisan war and a maritime blockade enforced by
the British, Germany sent Greece large quantities of gold in order to quell a
catastrophic inflation and to stabilize the Greek currency, efforts that were
not without success. She also sent
foodstuffs to Greece so as to stave off a threatening famine, as well as German
export goods – and this despite the shortages the German people were beginning
to suffer. Through the intermediary of
Sweden, a neutral country, she entered into contact with the British
authorities, whom she in the end got to lift the blockade of Greek waters in
favor of a Swedish ship loaded with German provisions, which was thus able,
each month, to sail from Trieste or Venice and reach Piraeus, the port of
Athens, without running the risk of being torpedoed.

April 24 –Bulgaria declares war on Greece and Yugoslavia.
In May 1941, the Dutch Jewish Weekly announced that it was
mandatory to sew a yellow Star of David onto three layers of clothing;
overcoat, jacket and blouse. The Dutch
Jewish leaders had not wanted the Jewish illegals in their country either. Instructions specified the exact
location. If you didn’t and were found
out, you were immediately deported.
Individuals paid for their own stars.
Some non-Jews pinned one on to show solidarity, but they were arrested.
May 10, 1941 - Deputy
Führer Rudolph Hess flies to Scotland on Peace mission. Rudolf
Walter Richard Hess (written Heß in
Germany) (April 26, 1894 – August 17, 1987) was a prominent figure in Nazi
Germany, acting as Adolf Hitler's Deputy in the Nazi Party. On the eve of war with the Soviet Union, he
flew solo to Scotland in an attempt to negotiate peace with the United Kingdom,
but instead was arrested. It has been
declared that he flew without Hitler’s knowledge. (5/30/11 Hitler Knew of Hess' British Flight
Plans-Hess’ adjutant Karlheinz Pintsch, Hitler's valet Heinz Linge, Ernst
Wilhelm Bohle, the head of the Nazi Party's foreign organization, and Göring's
adjutant Karl Heinrich Bodenschatz, all believed Hitler knew.) He was tried at Nuremberg and sentenced to
life in prison at Spandau Prison, Berlin, where he died in 1987, possibly
murdered, staged as a suicide.
Rudolf Hess flew to Great Britain with Hitler's knowledge
and with a 7 Point peace plan from Hitler in his pocket. The German Leader's
Peace Plan included: a) The withdrawal of all German Troops from Poland,
Belgium, France & Holland. b) Reimbursement for war damage to those
countries c) Total German disarmament d) The destruction of all German war
weaponry. This offer threw the British Government into turmoil. Churchill's hastily improvised government had
by then reached the point of no return.
They were already hell bent on destroying a system superior to their own
and which presented itself as a major competitor for Britain's markets. 1942 June 26 Rudolf Hess is transported to a
British County Mental Hospital. Hess
abruptly quits complaining of being poisoned and drugged; begins sleeping
proper hours, eats without complaint, and exercises frequently. Hess' disposition becomes sunny and cheerful,
and a car is provided for chauffer-driven rides in the countryside literally
whenever he pleases. (Missing Years) 1944
5/7 1944 Rudolf Hess voluntarily agrees to be injected with Evipan, a
proprietary brand of the so-called "truth drug," Pentothal (sodium
Thiopental). Hess convinces the doctors,
including Dr. Dicks, that he is suffering from profound amnesia. (Missing
Years)
May 10/11 - Germans bomb London, the British bomb Hamburg
civilians.
May 15 - Operation Brevity begins (the British
counter-attack in Egypt).
May 24 - Sinking of the British
ship Hood by the Bismarck. May 27 - Bismarck is not sunk by the British
Navy, but is scuttled by her own officers, so that British could not discover
its unsinkable structure. The propaganda
is that a air-borne torpedo sunk it in increment weather. Some say this was a turning point in the
Battle of the Atlantic and hence of the whole war in Europe.
The Allied victory in the
Atlantic came with the introduction of a small number of long-range aircraft to
cover the notorious Atlantic Gap. The
bombing offensive, almost brought to a halt in the winter of 1943-4, was saved
by the addition of long-range fuel tanks to escort-fighters, a tiny expense in
the overall cost of the bombing campaign.
****In June,
Roosevelt advisor Kaufman plans for the annihilation of the German people “Germany Must Perish”. From this point Germans know Allied plans and
fight accordingly. Theodore N. Kaufman,
the author of Germany Must Perish, was a Manhattan-born Jewish businessman who
was also chairman of a group that called itself the "American Federation
for Peace." The first edition of this
slim volume was published in 1940 or early 1941. A second, 96-page edition, which sold for 25
cents, was published in 1941 by Argyle Press of Newark, New Jersey. Both editions were issued when the United
States was still officially neutral, that is, before the Pearl Harbor attack of
December 7, 1941, that brought the U.S. openly into the War. Kaufman's fervent proposal for the systematic
sterilization of the entire German population was given respectful attention in
the American press, including reviews in a number of newspapers. A review in the weekly Time magazine, March
24, 1941, called Kaufman's plan a "sensational idea."
Theodore Newman Kaufman (sometimes wrongly given as "Theodore Nathan
Kaufmann" (2/22, 1910 – 4/1, 1986) was an American Jew businessman and
writer. In 1939 he published pamphlets
as chairman of the American Federation of Peace that argued that America should
not fight in foreign wars. (vs) In 1941
he wrote and published Germany Must Perish! which called for the sterilization
of the German people and the redistribution of the German lands.
Germany's propaganda chief, Joseph Goebbels, seized with
delight on the book. "This Jew
[Kaufman] has done a disservice to the enemy," Goebbels privately commented. "If he had composed the book at my
behest he couldn't have done a better job." At his direction the German press played up
Kaufman's call for genocide. A front
page article about the book in the Berlin daily Der Angriff, July 23, 1941,
appeared under headlines that called it a "Diabolical Plan for the
Extermination of the German People" and a work of "Old Testament
Hatred." Extracts also appeared,
for example, in the nationally-circulated weekly paper Das Reich, August 3,
1941.
“Germany Must Die!” Poster exploiting “Germany Must Perish”, which advocated,
among other things, the sterilization of the entire German population and the
dismemberment of Germany as a nation.
A plan similar to Kaufman's was
issued during the war years by a prominent American anthropologist. In an article headlined "Breed War
Strain Out of Germans" in the New York daily newspaper P.M., January 4,
1943, Ernest Hooton laid out an "outbreeding" plan that would "destroy
German nationalism and aggressive ideology while retaining and perpetuating
desirable German biological and sociological capacities." (See also:
Benjamin Colby, ‘Twas a Famous Victory, 1974, p. 131) The Harvard University
professor's proposal called for genetically transforming the German nation by encouraging
mating of German women with non-German men, who would be brought into the
country in large numbers, and of German men, forcibly held outside of Germany,
with non-German women. Ten to twelve
million German men would be assigned to forced labor under Allied supervision
in countries outside of Germany to rebuild their economies. "The objects of this measure,"
wrote Dr. Hooton, "include reduction of the birthrate of 'pure' Germans,
neutralization of German aggressiveness by outbreeding and denationalization of
indoctrinated individuals." This
plan, Hooton estimated, would require at least 20 years to be implemented. "During this period," he went on,
"encourage also the immigration and settlement in the German states of
non-German nationals, especially males."
In the decades since the end of World War II, something of the spirit of
the genocidal Kaufman and Hooton plans seems manifest in Germany's population
and immigration policies. Since the
nation's defeat in 1945, the German birth rate has fallen to below the
replacement level, millions of racially and culturally alien migrants have been
welcomed as settlers in Germany, the number of children of mixed ethnicity has
sharply increased, and the ethnic-cultural character of much of the country has
been drastically altered, especially in the larger cities.
Sir Pelham Grenville (PG)Wodehouse, (10/15 1881 – 2/14 1975)
was an English
humorist, whose body of work includes novels, short stories, plays,
poems, song lyrics, and numerous pieces of journalism. He enjoyed enormous popular success during a
career that lasted more than seventy years.
When World War II broke out in 1939 he remained at his seaside home in
France. The German military authorities
in occupied France interned him from May 1940-June 1941. He then moved to Berlin and made 5 radio
broadcasts aimed at America. They were
all light-hearted accounts of his time during internment. Documents declassified in the 1980s revealed
that while living in Paris, his living expenses were paid by the Nazis, but the
money was, in fact, Wodehouse's legitimate earnings, which had to be channeled
via the German Central Bank. Later,
talking about Hollywood: “The trouble is, you see, all these Jews out here have
been having a gorgeous time for years,
fooling about with the shareholders’ money and giving all their relations fat
jobs…”
June 4, 1941 - Pro-Allied
puppet government installed in Iraq by British.
Wilhelm Friedrich
Euler (5/19, 1908 -2/14, 1995) was a German archivist, genealogist and founder of
Foundation. In 1941, Friedrich Wilhelm
Euler, Germany's leading expert on Jewish genealogy, published a lengthy
article entitled "The Penetration
of Jewish Blood into the English Upper Class." Euler asked how modern Britain became the
"protecting power of Jewry" despite the relatively small size of the
Jewish community there. He claimed too
much emphasis had been placed on Jewish economic and intellectual influence,
and not enough on the penetration of the English aristocracy by Jewish
blood. Well before British Jews were
emancipated in the 19th Century, Euler argued, baptized members of commercially
and financially successful Jewish families had married into the English
nobility. Virtually all of his 148-page
article consisted of a catalog of Jewish conversions and subsequent marriages
with non-Jews, starting in the fourteenth century. The evidence proved that the English
aristocracy had literally sealed a "marriage with Jewry" in terms of
its "blood substance."
June 8, 1941 - Allies
invade Syria and Lebanon, which were British and French mandates
after the fall of the Ottoman Empire.
6/13, 1941 Moldova
Remembers Soviet-Era Deportations (AP) - On 6/13, 1941, the Soviet Union,
which had occupied the former Romanian province a year earlier, loaded 22,600 Moldovans
on cargo trains bound for Siberia, where the deportees were used for forced
labor. "Loaded in cattle cars, in inhumane conditions, most of the
deportees were sent to the cold lands of Siberia and never returned home,"
said Valentina Sturza, a former deportee who heads the Association of Former
Political Prisoners. Participants held a
traditional Orthodox religious service and lit candles for the victims of the
deportations. Two other waves of deportations were carried out in 1949 and
1951, with another 40,000 Moldovans sent to Siberia and what is now Kazakhstan.
June 14, 1941 - United States freezes German and Italian
assets in America. This included Axis
Jewish money which is confiscated after five years.
“And at the outset of the war, as we all know, Jews were
among the first evacuated from the western regions threatened by the Hitlerite
invaders, and shipped to safety east of the Urals.” Louis
Levine - quoted in Robert H. Williams' “The Anti-Defamation League”
“Stalin's War” by Ernst Topitsch (3/20, 1919 -1/26,
2003) was an Austrian philosopher and
sociologist. Hitler's war was
in reality Stalin's war, "Moscow's bid for world domination". Stalin had let the German troops penetrate only
as a trick before Moscow attacked. Stalin,
not Hitler, planned WWII, with an eye towards invading western Europe after the
defeat of Germany. Only the strong
presence of American troops in. Germany at war's end kept this nightmare
scenario from unfolding.
****Russia Soviet Union Russia Soviet Union
**** Soviet
Union Prepares to Attack Germany****
Germany begins Pre-Emptive War on
Soviet Union
Hitler and his generals agreed that war on two fronts would
be suicidal, but they had to invade Russia to pre-empt Stalin's massive thrust
to cut off Germany from Romanian oil.
Details from Russian archives suggest that this was due to start in July
1941.
Operation Barbarossa,
launched on June 22 1941, was the biggest military campaign in history. Each army numbered more than three million
soldiers – but the Russians had far heavier fire power with 20,000 tanks to
3,300.
June 22 – Germany and Italy declare war on the Soviet
Union. Rumania and Finland join against
Soviet Union. Germany attacks Soviet
Union as Operation Barbarossa begins.
Russia had been posed to attack Germany.
Hitler is Savior of Europe for stopping the Red butchers. Soviet army is composed of 25% Ukrainians,
whom have lived through their manufactured famine and many nations including
the nations of the East. Later when
Soviets take Berlin, many of their soldiers are Mongolians. Soviet Jewish Commissars would execute any
soldier that ran or surrendered, or freed after capture. A large army of White Russians after capture
by Germans then fought against their previous Red Masters.
The earlier division of Poland gave the Soviet Union 200
more kilometers towards Germany. In
Hitler's invasion of Russia, the strategic goal of occupation of Moscow, was
short by only 40 kms. Had the German
Armies' starting point been 200 kms. closer to Moscow they might have been able
to overrun Moscow before winter set in and thus achieve victory over the Soviet
Union. Hitler could have usurped the
whole of Poland - ignoring the Soviet pact - with small risk of Russian hostilities. Hitler wanted to respect the now-smaller
Poland. Germany knew well the exact
condition of Stalin's desperate rearmament program, for they were themselves
the suppliers of the industrial technology and even of much of the combat air
force. Hitler was already delayed by the
second front involving the invasion of the Low Countries and France, the failed
campaign against the British Isles and, last but not least, by their
last-minute invasion of the Balkan.
The second invasion front date was delayed by 6 weeks due to
an incursion to pacify the Balkans after American diplomatic agitation in
Romania made Hitler's flank and oil supplies insecure. This proved crucial for the Red Army, causing
Hitler's forces to lose momentum before the Russian winter began. The Balkan diversion was carefully engineered
by Churchill and Roosevelt, who knew exactly of Hitler's plan to invade Russia
due to secret British possession of the German cypher machine, Enigma, the
codes of which were regularly broken. Stalin had refused to believe their
warnings, taking them as a mere attempt to destroy the Russo-German pact, which
was a continuation of existing broad military and industrial co-operation for
many years prior to the pact (the facts of which first came to light as late as
the mid-1990s).

On 6/22, 1941, the Council
of the Supreme Soviet imposed martial law over Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, the
Ukraine, White Russia, Karelia, Bessarabia, as well as over the territories of
Archangel, Murmansk, Vologda, Leningrad, Kalinin, Ivanovo, Yaroslav,
Ryazan-Smolensk, Tula, Kursk, Moscow, Voronezh, Orel, the Crimea, and
Krasnodar. General mobilization was
ordered in 15 military districts.
The Christian populations under the Jewish
Soviets support the Germans and call them Liberators.
Rumania, Finland and
Hungary and Albania join Germany against Soviet Union.
****A scorched earth policy
is a military strategy or operational method which involves destroying anything
that might be useful to the enemy while advancing through or withdrawing from
an area. Although initially referring to
the practice of burning crops to deny the enemy food sources, in its modern
usage the term includes the destruction of infrastructure such as shelter,
transportation, communications and industrial resources. The practice may be
carried out by an army in enemy territory, or its own home territory. It may overlap with, but is not the same as,
punitive destruction of an enemy's resources, which is done for purely
strategic/political reasons rather than strategic/operational reasons. It was most famously used against Napoleon's
and Hitler's armies invading Russia.
Hitler refuses to use poison
gases or assassination of foreign opponents.
While Soviet tanks flew the Nazi swastika as a ruse, Hitler forbade his
tanks to violate flag rules.
June 22 Sept 1941 Einsatzgruppen ("task forces") were SS paramilitary
squads that were responsible for policing operations in the vast newly
conquered territories. They were only
needed for a short time to arrest Communist Partisans and kill if
necessary. 110,000 uniformed soldiers
patrolling 850,000 sq miles of occupied Soviet territory with 70 million
inhabitants. Soviet and Soviet partisans would torture and then execute their
captives. A very large percentage
of the Germans are support staff, such as interpreters and drivers. Interesting
Sidelight: As Court Historians lower Gas

June 22 U.S. Senator Harry Truman
announces that, "If we see that Germany is going to win, we will help
Soviet Russia, but if it is the other way around, we will have to help
Germany. Let's leave them alone so that
they will weaken each other as much as possible." (Marschalko) (After Roosevelt's death in 1945, many
Germans believed the U.S. would soon join them in the fight against Communism)
June 26 Finland declares war on the Soviet Union.
June 28 - Germans liberate Minsk.
6/22-7/3, 1941 The Battle of Białystok–Minsk was a German strategic operation. Its goal, the encirclement of the Red Army
forces around Minsk, was accomplished. On
conclusion, 290,000 Soviet soldiers were
captured.
8/23-9/26, 1941 The Battle of Kiev was
the German name for the operation that resulted in a very large encirclement of
Soviet troops in the vicinity of Kiev. It is considered the largest encirclement of
troops in history. Nearly the entire
Southwestern Front of the Red Army was encircled with the Germans claiming 665,000 captured.
German Camps for
Russian POW’s: The orthodox Jewish story is that some 3.3 million Soviet
POWs died in Nazi custody, out of 5.7 million.
Yet - In the first months of the Russian campaign the Germans took 3
million Soviet soldiers POW. In the
early months of the campaign, hundreds of thousands (some say 1 million) died
by malnutrition, exhausting, illness and wounds. Moreover, Stalin bombarded POW camps in the Baltic states, because he didn't
recognize the Geneva Treaties and designated all Soviet POW's as
"traitors". Stalin’s son may
have committed suicide in a German camp, knowing his father would consider him
a traitor. The Germans contacted the
Russian authorities to come to support of their "comrades", but they
refused vehemently. Only after 3 months,
October '41, the Germans were able to feed the prisoners properly, but the
death numbers stayed high. On December
2nd, the Germans managed to raise food rations to a level higher than
Soviet-citizens got from their Government.
Having no other choice than stay in abominable camps on Russian soil, or
escape and be shot as 'traitors' by their 'comrades', 2 million Russian POW's choose to go into German service. Russian POW's who entered the German Army, did
so at their own free will. Those who didn’t
were treated as well as the Germans were able to do so as POW’s. More than a million POW's also, especially
ethnic groups who opposed communism and/or wanted autonomy for their States of
origin (Georgians, Turkmenistans, Caucasians, Cossacks, Estonians, Latvians,
Lithuanians, Vlassov Division soldiers, etc.) entered German military forces
and were incorporated or sometimes transformed to security units, units against
partisans, etc. Also, more than a
million Russian POW's were transported to German concentration camps; nearly
all German men were in military service, as the German industry desperately
needed labor force. Quite another story than usually told: "the Germans killed 3.3-5
million Russian POW's".
Dugouts served as living quarters for prisoners in Stalag 319—a
Nazi-built camp for Soviet prisoners of war near Chelm, Poland, between 1941
and 1944. The Germans did their best in
helping their POW’s, lending shovels wood, canvas, rope, etc. In dramatic opposite, the Allies with their
tremendous resources left the German POW’s in a field with nothing and
deliberately starved over a million to death..
11/14, 1944 (official
start) Russian
Liberation Army was a group of predominantly Russian forces
subordinated to the Nazi German high command.
The ROA was organized by former Red Army General Andrey Vlasov, who
tried to unite anti-communist Russians opposed to the communist regime. Amidst the volunteers were Soviet prisoners of
war, and White Russian émigrés. On 1/28,
1945, it was officially declared that the Russian divisions no longer formed
part of the German Army.
Russian Camps for
German POW’s: Between 374,000 and 1 million German prisoners of war (out of
estimated 2.4 to 3.3 million) died in Soviet labor camps.(Wikipedia) Approximately three
million German prisoners of war were captured by the Soviet Union during World
War II, most of them during the great advances of the Red Army in the last year
of the war. The POW were employed as
forced labor in the Soviet wartime economy and post war reconstruction. By 1950 almost all had been released, in 1956
the last surviving German POW returned home from the USSR. According to Soviet records 381,067 German Wehrmacht
POW died in NKVD camps (356,700 German nationals and 24,367 from other
nations). German estimates put the
actual death toll of German POW in the USSR at about 1.0 million; they maintain
that among those reported as missing were men who actually died as POW. Needless
to say, the truth is many more!

July 3, 1941 - Stalin calls for a scorched earth policy
against his own people. He would rather
they starve, then to be saved by the Germans.
On 3 July 1941, Stalin, in his well-known radio speech:
“Comrades! Citizens! Brothers and Sisters! Fighters of our Army and Navy!”,
which was broadcast everywhere over and over again in the following days,
ordered the population to deprive the German invader of everything that might
be of use: “Not single locomotive, not one single railroad car, not one
kilogram of grain, not one liter of fuel must be left behind for the German
enemy”. Anything that could not be taken
away was to be destroyed: “In enemy-occupied areas, partisan divisional units,
on both foot and horseback, must be created to fight the units of the enemy army,
to set partisan warfare ablaze everywhere, to blow up bridges and streets, to
destroy telephone and telegraph connections, to burn down forests, warehouses
and wreck trains. Intolerable conditions must be created in the occupied
territories; the enemy is to be pursued and destroyed at all time, and all
enemy measures must be thwarted.”

The Simon Wiesenthal
Center said that Stepan Bandera and his followers were linked to the deaths of
thousands of Jews. President Viktor Yushchenko bestowed the Hero of Ukraine
award to Bandera for his role in fighting for an independent Ukraine. Stepan
Andriyovych Bandera (1/1, 1909 – 10/15, 1959) was the leader of the
Ukrainian nationalist movement. Soviet
authorities authorized the KGB to assassinate him which took place in Munich,
West Germany, on 10/15, 1959. On 7/6,
1941 Bandera was imprisoned by the Nazis; in Sept 1944 he was released. The intermittently close relationship between
Bandera, the OUN and Nazi Germany has been described as "ambivalent",
tactical and opportunistic. In September
1944 Bandera was released in the hope
that he would rouse the native populace to fight the advancing Soviet Army. The predominance of the Russians, rather than
the Jewish minority, as the principal perceived enemy of Ukrainian nationalists
was highlighted at the OUN-B's Conference in Krakow in 1941 when it declared
that "The Jews in the USSR constitute the most faithful support of the
ruling Bolshevik regime, and the vanguard of Muscovite imperialism in Ukraine.
The Muscovite-Bolshevik government exploits the anti-Jewish sentiments of the
Ukrainian masses to divert their attention from the true cause of their
misfortune and to channel them in a time of frustration into pogroms on Jews.
The OUN combats the Jews as the prop of the Muscovite-Bolshevik regime and
simultaneously it renders the masses conscious of the fact that the principal
foe is Moscow."
July 10 - Germans cross the River Dnieper in the Ukraine.

****(General Plan East)
Generalplan Ost (GPO) was a German plan for Eastern Europe. Drang nach Osten (Drive towards the East)was
the supposed ideology of German expansion to the east, but both the plan and
the ideology was more economic and hegemonic than the propaganda of the court
historians. According to the coerced,
suspect Nuremberg testimony of SS-Standartenführer Dr. Hans Ehlich, the final
version of the plan was drafted in 1940. The Propaganda says it called for vast
genocide. The Allies say that nearly all
the wartime documentation on Generalplan Ost was deliberately destroyed shortly
before Germany's defeat in May 1945, which is impossible. The ‘proofs’ are memorandum musings and
coerced, suspect testimony. The actual
General Plan East primarily called for the relocation of the Talmudic, Zionist
and Soviet Jews. The Soviets had created
the Jewish homeland of Birobidzhan in 1937, the Germans had been cooperating
with the Zionists, and other locations were still being discussed. It called
for the dissolution of Communism and imprisonment of radicals and lawbreakers. It called for Germanization of all regions
which had at earlier centuries had been Germanic. Certain Peoples were much more spread out in
territory than the tightly populated Germans and their regions could be
reduced. It called for co-operation with
all nationalities.

Ost.
LEGEND: Dark grey – Germany. Dotted black line – the extension of a
detailed plan of the "second phase of settlement". Light grey – planned territorial scope of the
Reichskommissariat administrative units; their names in blue are Ostland
(1941-1945), Ukraine (1941-1944), Moskowien (never realized), and Kaukasien
(never realized).
7/17, 1941 Ostland - Reichskommissariat Ostland (RKO) - After the German pre-emptive
invasion of the Soviet Union, Germany instituted the civilian occupation government
in the Baltic states (Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania), the north-eastern part
of Poland, and west part of Belarusian SSR. It was also known as ("Baltic Land")
initially. These lands had a
fundamentally "European" character, resulting from 700 years of
history under Swedish, Danish, and German rule.
The Talmudic and Zionist Jews would be relocated and a stronger
Germanization would begin. Throughout
1943 and 1944, the Red Army gradually recaptured most of the territory. (Ostland should not be confused with Ober
Ost, which had a similar role as an occupation authority for Baltic territories
by the German Empire in World War I.) The government planned to encourage the
post-war settlement of Germans to the region, seeing it as a region
traditionally inhabited by Germans (see the Teutonic Order and the Northern
Crusades) that had been overrun by Slavs. During the war itself in Pskov province ethnic
Germans were resettled from Romania with some Dutch. The settlement of Dutch settlers was
encouraged by the (Netherland’s East Company), a Dutch-German
organization. Historical German and
Germanic-sounding place-names were also retained (or introduced) for many
Baltic cities. The four "General
Regions" were Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and White Ruthenia (Belarus).
7/17, 1941 Ukraine - Reichskommissariat Ukraine (abbreviated as RKU), was
the civilian occupation government. Hitler
appointed the Erich Koch as Reichskommissar on August 20, 1941. Originally subject to Alfred Rosenberg's Reich
Ministry for the Occupied Eastern Territories, it became a separate German
civil entity. The first transfer of
Ukrainian territory from military to civil administration took place on
September 1, 1941. There were further
transfers on October 20 and November 1, 1941, and a final transfer on September
1, 1942, which brought the boundaries of the province to beyond the Dnieper River. Germany was considered the Liberator of
Ukraine from the Communists, especially the supremacist, antichristian Jews. On December 14, 1941, Rosenberg discussed
with Hitler various issues regarding Ukraine. These included a dispute over Koch's status
and access to Hitler, manpower shortages over gathering the harvest, Hitler's
insistence that the Crimea and much of Southern Ukraine was to have the
Talmudic, Zionist and Soviet Jews relocated and directly attached to the Reich
as a district called Gotenland ("Land of the Goths"). The Reichskommissariat Ukraine excluded
several parts of present-day Ukraine, and included some territories outside of
its modern borders. Eastern Galicia became
part. Some former Soviet territory
between the Southern Bug and Dniester rivers was given to Romania.
The Wehrmacht introduced reforms in Ukraine allowing
religious liberty. The supremacist,
antichristian Jews had destroyed hundreds of churches and murdered
priests. The government was planning to
encourage the settlement of German and other "Germanic" farmers in
the region after the war; the Soviets had killed most of the prosperous and
industrious Germanic Kulak farmers. Ukraine
had been the residence of ancient Germanic Gothic tribes. Again, Dutch settlers were sent in to farm. The surviving German Kulaks had the return of
their land and property which had been taken at the Soviet Revolution. Heinrich Himmler considered Kiev to be
"an ancient German city" because of the Magdeburg city rights that it
had acquired centuries prior, and often referred to it as "Kiroffo".
Moskowien - Reichskommissariat
Moskowien (Moskau, RKM) was the civilian occupation government that Germany
intended to create in central and northern European Russia. “This
occupation will indeed have a completely different character to that in the
Baltic Sea provinces, in the Ukraine and in the Caucasus. It will be geared towards the oppression of
any Russian or Bolshevist resistance and requires an absolutely ruthless
(strong) personality, not only on the part of the military representation but
also the potential political leadership. The resulting tasks need not be recorded. (in
this short musing of a memo)” - Alfred Rosenberg, memo only dated April 7,
1941
Wikipedia - Rosenberg viewed that the political goal of
Operation Barbarossa was not merely the destruction of the Bolshevik regime,
but the "reversing of Russian dynamism" towards the east (Siberia)
and the freeing of the Reich of the "eastern nightmare (Communism) for
centuries to come" by down-siizing the Russian state, regardless of its
political ideology. The continued
existence of Russia as a potential instigator of Pan-Slavism and its suggestive
power over other Slavic peoples in the fight between "Germandom" and
"Slavism" was seen as a major threat. This was to be solved by exploiting ethnic
centrifugal forces and limiting the influence of "Greater Russiandom"
by promoting segmentation. (Germany,
before WWI, during 1939, and currently has considered Russia as a potential
ally. Slavs were considered as Aryans,
but more Asiatic and backwards.)
In a memorandum musing sent to Rosenberg in March 1942, German
anthropologist Otto Reche argues for the disappearance of 'Russia' both as an
ethnic and political concept, and the promotion of a new plethora of
ethnicities based on medieval Slavic tribes such as the Vyatichs and Severians.
Even White Ruthenia, and in particular
the Ukraine ("in its present extent") he deemed to be dangerously
large. Heinrich Himmler in a memorandum
expressed that the Germans had to acknowledge and cultivate as many ethnic
splinter groups in German-occupied Poland as possible, including Ukrainians,
"White Russians" (Belarusians), Gorals, Lemkos, and Kashubians. The Eastern Ministry responded that Reche's
emphasis on the plurality of ethnic groups in the Soviet Union was correct
"in itself", but was skeptical about his proposal to resurrect obscure
and extinct nationalities. Reche
defended his proposal by arguing that “in the area of ethnicity much has
already been successfully brought back to life!"
A series of "semantic guidelines" published by the
Reich Interior Ministry in 1942 declare that it is permissible to use the word
'Russia' only in a reference to the "Petersburg empire" of Peter the
Great and its follow-ups until the revolution of 1917. The period from 1300 to Peter the Great (the
Grand Duchy of Moscow and the Tsardom of Russia) was to be called the
"Muscovite state", while post-1917 Russia was not to be referred to
as an empire or a state at all; the preferred terms for this period were
"bolshevik chaos" or "communist elements". Furthermore, historic expressions such as
Little Russia (Ukraine), White Russia (Belarus/White Ruthenia), Russian Sea
(for the Black Sea), and Russian Asia (for Siberia and Central Asia) were to be
absolutely avoided as terminology of the "Muscovite imperialism". "Tatars" was described as a
pejorative Russian term for the Volga, Crimean, and Azerbaijan Turks which was
preferably to be avoided, and respectively replaced with the concepts
"Idel (Volga)-Uralian", "Crimean Turks", and Azerbaijanis.
Kaukasus -
The Reichskommissariat Kaukasus, was the planned civilian occupation government
of the Caucasus. The Caucasus
experiments were to be conducted for various forms of autonomy for
"indigenous groups". Azerbaijan,
Georgia and Armenia should each be called a Land and be given statuses of
"state entities" under German protection. These three proto-governments, and those of
the North Caucasus were ordered to settle their territorial differences during
the German advance into the Caucasus.
Hitler's strategic thinking delegated Turkey a role of an ally
protecting Germany's southern flank against the remnants of the defeated
USSR. There was also a contingency in
case Turkey joined the Allies.
Herbert Backe (5/1, 1896 – 4/6, 1947) was
a German
Nazi politician and Obergruppenführer in the SS. He performed a variety of duties in the Third
Reich, the most notable of which was succeeding Richard Walther Darré as
Minister of Food in May 1942 and as Minister of Agriculture in April 1944, and,
during the war, was proposed by Alfred Rosenberg as administrator of
Ukraine. Backe was one of the planners
of the Hunger Plan. He continued to hold
his Ministerial positions in the government led by Karl Dönitz in the last days
of World War II, from late April to May 1945, as according to Hitler's
political will. After the war officially
ended, he was captured by the Allies together with the rest of the government,
and was to face the Ministries Trial.
However, he hanged himself in his cell on 6 April 1947.
****The Hunger Plan
(Germany’s term?) was economic management that was put in place to ensure that
Germans had food supplies. The
fundamental premise behind the Hunger Plan was that Germany was not
self-sufficient in food supplies during the war, and to sustain the war it
needed to obtain the food from conquered lands.
(Every nation has numerous contingency plans for the variables of War.)
The Hunger Plan may have been made almost as soon as Hitler
announced his intention to invade the Soviet Union in December 1940. Certainly by May 2, 1941, it was in advanced
stages of planning. The lack of capacity
of Russian railways, the inadequacy of road transport and the shortages of
fuel, meant that the German Army would have to feed itself by taking food from
the farms in Soviet Russia and Ukraine.
The plan concluded that the War could only be continued if the entire
Wehrmacht would be fed from Russia in the third year of the war. After WWI, the Allies blockaded defeated
Germany and millions starved. As the WWII
wore on, Germans decreased their caloric intake and many ersatz foods were
introduced. The perceived grain riches
of Ukraine were important to the vision of a self-sufficient Germany. The Peoples of the conquered Soviet Union
were to be forced to survive on less calories.
(Even Wikipedia admits): Nonetheless
the Hunger Plan was never fully implemented. However, the Germans were able to
significantly supplement their grain stocks, particularly from the granaries in
fertile Ukraine, and cut off the Soviets from them. In late 1943 the Plan also bore another
success for the Germans: German food supplies were stabilized. In autumn 1943, for the first time since the
war began, the food rations for German citizens — which had been cut several
times before — were increased.
Göring remarked that the troops must significantly reduce
their consuming of conserves. (This is
in contrast to the American soldiers who ate like royalty after the War, while
German POW’s and civilians starved.) To
the Wehrmacht he addressed the reproach that in the area around Minsk there are
still huge herds of cattle running around in the woods which cannot be
collected due to the Soviet partisans.
The deployment of troops was absolutely necessary.
Contrary to the court
historians, Leningrad citizens starved because it was under siege, not because
of a Hunger Plan. Their Soviet overlords
could have surrendered. Russian POW’s
starved because of the huge numbers which had surrendered and Germany was not prepared
to feed them. Many though, died of
disease from previous Soviet contagion and insufficient diet.

Aug 8, 1941 Massacre at Balta, Ukraine - Russians according to military statute
dressed in German uniforms. This

Aug 14 - Roosevelt and Churchill announce the Atlantic
Charter before the war.
The Atlantic Charter
was drafted by Britain and the US, and later agreed to by all the Allies. The Charter stated the ideal goals of the war:
no territorial aggrandizement; no territorial changes made against the wishes
of the people; restoration of self-government to those deprived of it; free
access to raw materials; reduction of trade restrictions; global cooperation to
secure better economic and social conditions for all; freedom from fear and
want; freedom of the seas; and abandonment of the use of force, as well as
disarmament of aggressor nations. At the subsequent meeting of the Inter-Allied
Council in St. James' Palace in London on 9/24, 1941, the governments of
Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Greece, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland,
the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, and representatives of General Charles de Gaulle,
leader of the Free French Forces, unanimously adopted adherence to the common
principles of policy set forth in the Atlantic Charter. In the "Declaration by United
Nations" of 1/1, 1942, the Allies pledged adherence to the charter's
principles. The Charter set goals rather
than a blueprint for the postwar world. It inspired many of the international
agreements that shaped the world. The
General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), the post-war independence of
European colonies, and much more are derived from the Atlantic Charter.
The Axis powers
interpreted these diplomatic agreements as a potential alliance against them.
In Tokyo the Atlantic Charter rallied
support for the militarists in the Japanese government, who pushed for a more
aggressive approach against the US and Britain.
The British dropped millions of flysheets over Germany to allay fears of
a punitive peace that would destroy the German state. The text cited the Charter as the
authoritative statement of the joint commitment of Great Britain and the U.S.
"not to admit any economical discrimination of those defeated" and
promised that "Germany and the other states can again achieve enduring
peace and prosperity."
The problems came not from Germany and Japan, but from those
of the allies that had empires and
which resisted self-determination—especially Britain, the Soviet Union and the
Netherlands. Initially it appears that
Roosevelt and Churchill had agree that the third point of Charter was not going
to apply to Africa and Asia. However
Roosevelt's speechwriter Robert Sherwood noted that "it was not long
before the people of India, Burma, Malaya, and Indonesia were beginning to ask
if the Atlantic Charter extended also to the Pacific and to Asia in
general." With a war that could
only be won with these allies, Roosevelt's solution was to put some pressure on
Britain but to postpone until after the war the issue of self-determination of
the colonies.
Churchill rejected its universal applicability when it came
to the self-determination of subject nations such as British India. Mohandas
Karamchand Gandhi in 1942 wrote to President Roosevelt: "I venture to
think that the Allied declaration that the Allies are fighting to make the
world safe for the freedom of the individual and for democracy sounds hollow so
long as India and for that matter Africa are exploited by Great
Britain..." Roosevelt repeatedly
brought the need for Indian independence to Churchill's attention, but was
repeatedly rebuffed. India eventually ended up contributing
significantly to the war effort, sending over 2.5 million men (the largest
volunteer force in the world at the time) to fight for the Allies, mostly in
West Asia and North Africa.
Poland - Churchill
was unhappy with the inclusion of references to peoples' right to
"self-determination" and stated that he considered the Charter an
"interim and partial statement of war aims designed to reassure all
countries of our righteous purpose and not the complete structure which we should
build after the victory." An office
of the Polish Government in Exile wrote to warn Władysław Sikorski that if the
Charter was implemented with regards to national self-determination, it would
make the desired Polish annexation of
Danzig, East Prussia and parts of German Silesia impossible, which led the
Poles to approach Britain asking for a flexible interpretation of the Charter.
Baltic States - During the war Churchill argued for an
interpretation of the charter in order to allow Russia to continue to control
the Baltic states, an interpretation rejected by the U.S. until March 1944.
Aug 20 - German siege of Leningrad begins.
Sept 1 - Nazis order Jews to wear yellow stars as was common
during much of the Middle Ages. Others
throughout West have worn one out of identity.
Max Baer the Jewish American boxer wears one on his trunks.
(see 1941) Almost
everywhere under Nazi rule Jews were forced to purchase and wear a six-pointed
star of David whenever they appeared in public. This
did not prevent their nearly normal economic activity. This was to point out to Germans, the
possible enemy aliens in their midst. The
yellow or light blue star was worn on an armband or pinned on a shirt or coat. This practice didn’t start until 1939 in
certain regions and not codified until 9/1, 1941.
The Jewish badge began as local laws after WWII began in
Sept 1939. For instance, on November 16,
1939, the order for a Jewish badge was announced in Lodz.: “We are returning to
the Middle Ages. The yellow patch once
again becomes a part of Jewish dress. Today
an order was announced that all Jews, no matter what age or sex, have to wear a
band of "Jewish-yellow," 10 centimeters wide, on their right arm,
just below the armpit.” On 11/23, 1939,
Hans Frank, the chief officer of the Government General, declared that all Jews
above ten years of age were to wear a white
badge with a Star of David on their right arm. It wasn't until nearly two years later that a
decree, issued on 9/1, 1941, issued badges to Jews within Germany as well as
occupied and incorporated Poland. This badge was the yellow Star of David with
the word "Jude" ("Jew") and worn on the left side of one's
chest.
The badge made a distinction. One day there were just people
on the street, and the next day, there were Jews and non-Jews. A common
reaction was as Gertrud Scholtz-Klink's stated in her answer to the question,
"What did you think when one day in 1941 you saw so many of your fellow
Berliners appear with yellow stars on their coats?" Her answer, "I
don't know how to say it. There were so
many. I felt that my aesthetic sensibility was wounded." All of a sudden, stars were everywhere, just
like Hitler had said they were.
At first, many Jews felt humiliated at having to wear the
badge. As in Warsaw: “For many weeks the
Jewish intelligentsia retired to voluntary house arrest. Nobody dared to go out into the street with
the stigma on his arm, and if compelled to do so, tried to sneak through
without being noticed, in shame and in pain, with his eyes fixed to the
ground.” Posters often could be found at
the exit doors of apartments that warned Jews by stating: "Remember the
Badge!" Have you already put on the Badge?" "The Badge!"
"Attention, the Badge!" "Before leaving the building, put on the
Badge!" Many Jews attempted to hide
the badge. When the badge was a white
armband with a Star of David, men and women would wear white shirts or blouses.
When the badge was yellow and worn on
the chest, Jews would carry objects and hold them in such a way as to cover
their badge. To make sure that Jews
could be easily noticed, some local authorities added additional stars to be
worn on the back and even on one knee.
Living life as usual,
but with a badge: Weddings in the Netherlands, just like in Germany:
______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Rezā Shāh, (Pahlavi) (March 15, 1878 – July 26, 1944), was the Shah of Iran
from December 15, 1925, until he was forced to abdicate by the Anglo-Soviet
invasion of Iran on September 16, 1941 in favor of his son. Tired of the opportunistic policies of both
Britain and the Soviet Union, the Shah circumscribed contacts with foreign
embassies. To counterbalance British and
Soviet influence, Reza Shah encouraged German commercial enterprise. On the eve of World War II, Germany was
Iran's largest trading partner. With the
accession of Adolf Hitler as state leader of Germany, Reza Shah starts building
close economic and political ties to the country. This aimed at reducing the British dominance
in Iran. Germany would become the most
important trade partner of Iran. Another
hardworking area was the kind of solid alliance that Reza Shah’s cabinet tried
to create with all of Iran’s neighbors, in particular Turkey and a
confederation of Middle Eastern countries. Unfortunately, with the death of
Kemal Atatürk and the start of the Second World War these projected were left
to the post-war regeneration of the total life of that region. Reza Shah also purchased ships from Italy and
hired Italians to teach his troops the intricacies of naval warfare. He also imported hundreds of German
technicians and advisors for various projects.
His foreign policy, which had consisted essentially of playing the
Soviet Union off against Great Britain, failed when those two powers joined in
1941 to fight the Germans.
His Legacy included the Iranian Railway, Iranian
treasury. Creation of the first
university in Iran. Eradication of
malaria. Eradication of corruption in
civil servants, paying wages in time so people didn't have to rely on bribes.
Creation of schoolbooks; before Reza Shah the Islamic madreseh was the only
form of schooling and the Koran the only widely available book. Creation of
birth certificates for all Iranians.
His son was then controlled by the West and funded and aided
by the CIA.
Mohammad Rezā Shāh Pahlavi, (10/26 1919 – 7/27 1980), ruled Iran
from 9/16 1941 until his overthrow by the Iranian Revolution on 2/11 1979. During his reign, the Iranian oil industry
was nationalized under Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh, and Iran marked the
anniversary of 2,500 years of continuous monarchy since the founding of the
Persian Empire by Cyrus the Great. The
Shah's White Revolution, a series of economic and social reforms intended to
transform Iran into a global power, succeeded in modernizing the nation,
nationalizing many natural resources, and extending suffrage to women. The White Revolution was a far-reaching
series of reforms launched in 1963.
Mohammad Reza Shah’s reform program was built especially to strengthen
those classes that supported the traditional system. Part of the reason for launching the White
Revolution was that the Shah hoped to get rid of the landlords' influence and
create a new base of support among the peasants and working class. In 1941–46
The British troops cause a famine and the consequent deaths of about nine
million Iranians when supply routes from the Persian Gulf to Russia were
cut. British troops took seeds and food
stocks from the people of Iran in order to support the Russians against the Germans.
The Second Quebec Conference
(codenamed "OCTAGON") was a high-level military conference held by
the British, Canadian and American governments.
The conference was held 9/12, 1944 – 9/16, 1944. The chief representatives were Winston
Churchill, William Lyon Mackenzie King and Franklin D. Roosevelt. Agreements were reached on the following
topics: Allied occupation zones in defeated Germany, the Morgenthau Plan,
continued U.S. economic aid to the United Kingdom, and UK naval participation
in the conflict against Japan. It helped the Allied powers devise a plan to win
the war. At the summit Morgenthau was
asked to explain his plan to the British. Churchill was horrified and called the plan
"cruel and un-Christian." But Morgenthau hammered on the idea that
the destruction of the Ruhr would
create new markets for Britain after the war. He also promised Churchill an American loan of
$6.5 billion! Churchill "changed
his mind" the next morning.

Sept 29, 1941 - Babi Yar, Kiev: some
exterminationist historians say 250,000 Jews killed. The
fable has it that then the Germans dug them up and then burned the bodies
as the Russians surrounded them. There
are no bodies or evidence of this mass of bodies. In
reality, Axis Ukrainians execute about 3,000 Communists (Jews) without German
authority. Many other bodies blamed on Germany or allies are the result of years
of Ukrainians being executed by Jewish Commissars. In August of 1946, there were 100,000 Jews
living in Kiev. This was before the rush
of Jewish emigration from Soviet areas.

Erich Koch
(6/19, 1896 – 11/12, 1986) was a Gauleiter of the Nazi Party (NSDAP) in East
Prussia from 1928 until 1945. Between
1941 and 1945 he was the Reichskommissar in Ukraine from 1941 until 1943. Koch was a professing Christian. "I held the view that the Nazi idea had
to develop from a basic Prussian-Protestant attitude and from Luther's
unfinished Protestant Reformation".
Koch may have been ineffective coordinator as initial Ukrainian
celebration of liberation devolved into dissatisfaction.
Hans Michael Frank
(5/23, 1900 – 10/16, 1946) was a German lawyer who worked for the Nazi
party. From October 26, 1939, Frank was the
Governor-General of the Polish General Government not directly incorporated
into Germany (roughly half of what Germany had gained).
Following the invasion of the USSR, Alfred Rosenberg (see 1930) was appointed head of the Reich
Ministry for the Occupied Eastern Territories.
Rosenberg had presented Hitler with his plan for the organization of the
conquered Eastern territories, suggesting the establishment of new
administrative districts, to replace the previously Soviet-controlled
territories with new Reichskommissariats.
These would be: Ostland (Baltic
countries and Belarus), Ukraine (Ukraine and nearest territories), Kaukasus
(Caucasia area), Moskau (Moscow metropolitan area and the rest of nearest
Russian European areas)
Such suggestions were intended
to encourage non-Russian nationalism and to promote German interests for the
benefit of future Aryan generations, in accord with geopolitical
"Lebensraum im Osten" plans.
They would provide a buffer against Soviet expansion in preparation for
the total eradication of Communism and Bolshevism by decisive pre-emptive
military action. Rosenberg was appalled
at the deterioration of occupation. As
Nazi Germany's chief racial theorist, Rosenberg considered Slavs, though ‘lesser’(backwards)
than Germans, to be Aryan. Rosenberg
often complained to Hitler and Himmler about the treatment of non-Jewish
occupied peoples. Rosenberg
"envisioned a system of Slavic satellite states under German
suzerainty."
Anyone today can enjoy a good
walk in the forest near the central Ukrainian town of Vinnitsa. The peaceful woods were once the site of a
top-secret and highly-guarded Nazi command center — the Werewolf bunker.” It was a huge complex, which had everything
Germany’s command could need. There was
an officer’s club, a sauna, a gym, a swimming pool and barracks. Some sources claim it went seven floors
underground. Above the ground there were
several wooden houses including a casino,” explained Svyatoslav Greben,
director of the Museum of Glory in Vinnitsa.
Adolf Hitler ordered the construction of the bunker to control the Nazi
war-effort on the Eastern Front. It is
believed the Nazi leader himself visited the bunker three times, with his
personal swimming pool thought to be about the only thing to remain intact at
the site. The rest of the huge complex
was destroyed in March 1944.
Roosevelt on 10/27, 1941, said he had come by a secret German map revealing a Nazi design
to conquer South America. Moreover, he
had another Nazi document disclosing Hitler's intention "to abolish all
existing religious." These
documents have never been produced, Roosevelt lied.
Oct 31, 1941 Through
the Transfer Agreement, 537,000 Jews
have emigrated from Germany, Austria and Bohemia since January 30, 1933. Another 100,000 Jews immigrated illegally to
Palestine between 1938 and 1948.
A group of Gypsy prisoners, awaiting
instructions from their German captors, sit in an open area near the fence in
the Belzec. (November 1941 to December 1942)
When German General von Manstein’s army left the Krimea and
the Ukraine, he left Jewish communities unmolested. Propaganda reads that 10,000 Jews were killed
in Simferopol, but reality was 300 mostly non-Jews. Many Einsatzgruppen reports were exaggerated
for officers’ glory. They were killed as
Red partisans, spies or as reprisals in consequence for terror activities. US troops often did reprisals in Vietnam.
Propaganda: November Heydrich reports to the Foreign Ministry that
a thirty-point program for a so-called neo-pagan "National Reich
Church," circulated as a leaflet in Germany and attributed by Allied
propaganda to Rosenberg, was actually written in 1937 by an eccentric from
Stettin (G). Heydrich attributes its
reappearance to Catholic elements out to discredit the regime. (Lewy) (Note:
William Shirer in The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, accepted this leaflet
as a genuine work by Rosenberg.)
Nov 13 - British aircraft carrier Ark Royal is sunk off
Gibraltar by a U-boat.
November 17, 1941, Stalin
issued Order no. 428 “All
settlements occupied by German troops are to be set on fire, to a depth of 40
to 60 km behind the main front line and 20 to 30 km on both sides of the roads.
Air Force, Artillery and Partisan
divisions groups equipped with bottles of fuel” were assigned to this task. The order is even said to have contained the
following sentence: “The search and
destroy commandos shall carry on the destruction actions in the uniform of the
German army and Waffen-SS. Such
actions incite hatred against the fascist occupiers and facilitate the
recruitment of partisans in the backcountry. At the same time, care should be taken to
leave survivors to report on ‘German atrocities’". 20 to 30 “courageous fighters” were to be selected
for these underground guerrilla groups, to be created in each regiment. “In
particular, those who destroy settlements behind the German lines in German
uniforms are to be nominated for the receipt of medals”, the order says. The last sentence says: “The population must
be told that the Germans burnt the villages and localities to punish the
partisans”
German officers were not always able to prevent their
soldiers from taking revenge. The
bitterness was too great. What happens
in a soldier who finds his comrades lying mutilated at the edge of a forest? The pay book of every member of the Wehrmacht
and Waffen-SS contained a document entitled “The 10 Commandments of the German
Soldier”, which was learned by every recruit. The third commandment stated: “No enemy who
surrenders is to be killed, except for partisans or spies. The latter are to receive a just punishment
from the courts”. These humane
statements, which were entirely in conformity with international law and had
been implemented in the campaigns until that time, were soon proven inadequate
for the actual situation.

“The Japanese peace overtures were remarkable, almost urgent. Japan twice offered to get out of the
Rome-Berlin-Tokyo Axis in return for peaceful arrangements with the United
States. In January, 1941, the Japanese
suggested willingness to retire from their drive into China and southeast Asia
as the price of peace with the United States. In March, the Japanese ambassador in
Washington began some forty fruitless conferences with Hull to
secure a peaceful settlement with the United States. In August, Prince Konoye, the Japanese prime
minister, made the astonishing concession of agreeing to meet Roosevelt at any
designated place to work out some method of preserving peace between the two
countries. He agreed to accept in
advance, as the basis for negotiations, the four fundamental principles laid
down by Hull in April, 1941, as an adequate basis for the settlement of
Japanese-American relations. Even after
this amazing proposal was curtly turned down, the Japanese made remarkable
overtures for peace in November, 1941, and sent Saburo Kurusu, well known as a
friend of the United States and an expert on Japanese-American relations, to
Washington to assist the Japanese ambassador in the negotiations. Even when the Japanese fleet started for Pearl
Harbor it had orders to turn back if the United States indicated any evidence
of willingness substantially to modify Hull's ultimatum. While Hull denounced the Japanese reply to
his ultimatum on December 7th in very explosive and colorful language, it was
actually a very moderate and reasonably accurate summary of Japanese-American
relations, considering the source and the conditions of the moment.”
****Japan Japan Japan Japan
****The origins of the War with Japan, South African politician and
noted banker, Stephen Goodson, explains the background as follows: “During the
1930s Japan rapidly expanded her industrial production, while the rest of the
world, with the exception of National Socialist Germany, stagnated. By 1941
Japan had become the leading economic power in East Asia. Her exports were steadily replacing those of America
and England. … Japan has very few
natural resources, so what was the secret of her success? In order to answer this question, it is
necessary to return to the year 1929, when one of the twentieth century’s
foremost monetary reformers, Major Clifford Hugh Douglas, went on a lecture
tour of Japan. …Douglas’s economic theory advocated the transfer of the money
creation process from private banks, which create money out of nothing as an
interest-bearing debt, to the state.
This government created money he termed social credit. He also favored the payment of a basic income
or national dividend to each citizen.
This dividend would provide consumers with the additional buying power
necessary to absorb all the current production of goods in a non-inflationary
manner…..Much of the reorganization was implemented in 1932. The reform of the central bank was completed
in February 1942 when the Bank of Japan Law was remodeled on the Reichsbank Act
of Germany of 1939.
In contrast to Japan, America had a private, mostly foreign
owned central bank, the US Federal Reserve Bank. Honorable Louis T. McFadden, Chairman of the
House Committee on Banking and Currency (1920-31) on June 10, 1932. “This evil institution has impoverished and
ruined the people of the United States; has bankrupted itself, and has
practically bankrupted our Government.
It has done this through the defects of the law under which it operates,
through the maladministration of that law by the Federal Reserve Board, and
through the corrupt practices of the moneyed vultures who control it.” According to McFadden, these 12 private
credit monopolies were “deceitfully and disloyally” foisted on an unsuspecting
public by foreign bankers, who in 1904 bankrolled Japan in her war with
Russia. In 1917, these international
bankers “fomented and instigated the Russian Revolution”, which resulted in the
“destruction of the Russian Empire”. (In
1914 Russia was the most prosperous nation in the world. She had a small and
declining foreign debt and no central bank.)
Both the Bank of Japan and the German Reichsbank with their
systems of state creation of the money supply at zero interest – and the
inevitability that those systems of finance would be replicated by other
countries– posed such a serious threat to the private investors of the US
Federal Reserve Bank, that a world war was deemed to be the only means of
countering it. In July 1941 all Japanese
assets in England, Holland and America were frozen after Japan had peacefully
occupied Indochina, with the permission of Vichy France, in order to block off
China’s southern supply routes. At the
same time an oil embargo was enforced.
Without oil Japan could not survive.
General Hideki Tojo, Prime Minister (October 1941 –
July 1944) explains in his diary how the United States continually thwarted
Japanese efforts at maintaining the peace.
Japan’s peaceful commercial relations were being persistently undermined
by the USA and posed a grave threat to her future existence. By means of the economic blockade a noose was
being placed around Japan’s neck. After
numerous diplomatic initiatives including the offer of a summit on August 8,
1941 had failed, Japan was forced into attacking America in order to maintain
her prosperity and secure her existence as a sovereign state. (see 1948)
One of the first acts of the
United States occupation forces in Japan in September 1945 was to restructure
the Japanese banking system, so as to make it compliant with the norms of the
international bankers i.e. usury.
Dec 7, 1941 - Japanese
bomb Pearl Harbor; Roosevelt has foreknowledge. Modern aircraft carriers were at sea, older
battleships were left in port and fighter planes were cabled together under
pretense of storm. Japanese attack after
US blockades much needed oil shipments. The
US had frozen Japanese bank accounts. Japanese only plan to attack military
installations, a couple of stray missiles hit civilians. Japan
also attacks the Philippines, Wake Island, Guam, Malaya, Thailand, Shanghai and
Midway, Singapore, the Dutch East Indies, and Burma.
US Military Conscription was passed back on Sept 16
1940. Thus even though a high 90% of
Americans had been against joining this European War, all of this ‘Greatest
Generation’ rushed to join the military
before being drafted so they could choose military branch and
occupation. Drafted soldiers have no
option and usually become infantry “cannon fodder”.
Oliver Lyttelton, 1st Viscount Chandos KG, PC, DSO, MC (3/15, 1893 – 1/21,
1972) was a British businessman who was brought into government during the
Second World War, holding a number of ministerial posts. He entered Winston Churchill's war coalition
as President of the Board of Trade in 1940, a post he held until 1941, and then
served as Minister of State in the Middle East from 1941 to 1942 and as
Minister of Production from 1942 to 1945. June 20, 1944 to US Chamber of
Commerce “Japan was provoked into attacking the US at Pearl Harbor.”
George Morgenstern, 1906-1988 wrote “Pearl Harbor: The Story of the Secret War”
1947. He spent his career at McCormick's
Chicago Tribune between 1941-1971. Pearl Harbor, was warmly received across the
ideological spectrum, from socialist Norman Thomas, to anti-war liberals such
as Profs. Beard and Barnes. It was
received favorably in the religious press from the Catholic World to the
Protestant Christian Century and also the enthusiastic reception of Pearl
Harbor by Admiral Harry E. Yarnell (1875-1959) who was active in the U.S. Navy
service for many years, Commander of the U.S. Asiatic Fleet (1936-1939) and
perhaps the inspiration for the Japanese attack of Dec. 7, 1941 on Oahu. In the Hawaii war games in 1932 Adm. Yarnell
took on the role of chief of the attacking forces.
Media purports that Hitler is behind Pearl Harbor. Most (90%) US population was isolationist
before this attack.
Hitler issues the Night
and Fog decree. Suspected
underground agents, Communist agitators and other possible terrorists would now
vanish without a trace into the night and fog of the death penalty or by taking
measures which will leave the family and the population uncertain as to the
fate of the offender. Field Marshall
Keitel issued a letter stating: "Efficient and enduring intimidation can
only be achieved either by capital punishment or by measures by which the
relatives of the criminals do not know the fate of the criminal. The prisoners are, in future, to be
transported to Germany secretly, and further treatment of the offenders will
take place here; these measures will have a deterrent effect because - A. The prisoners will vanish without a
trace. B. No information may be given as
to their whereabouts or their fate."
The prisoners were mostly from France, Belgium and Holland. They were usually arrested in the middle of
the night and quickly taken to prisons hundreds of miles away for questioning
and torture, eventually arriving at the concentration camps of Natzweiler or
Gross-Rosen. (Unlike America’s current
war on terror, this was a real detention of radical Jewish Communist
Extremists.) Until 30 April 1944, at
least 6,639 persons were captured under the Nacht und Nebel orders. Some 340 of them may have been executed. After initial humane interrogation, they were
kept humanely in typical detention camps.
The Germans knew that 9/10’s of tortured confessions were lies. They survived in normal ratios as other
prisoners after Allied food blockades, typhus disease from allied blockades,
and aerial bombings.

Germany allied with Japan as the "Aryans of the
East". The original inhabitants of
their islands were Caucasians who invented mankind’s earliest pottery around
ten thousand years ago. Known to
archaeologists as the Jomon, they still exist today as the Ainu, a mixed
Neolithic people residing mostly in Hokkaido.
Some twenty-two centuries ago, Chinese intellectuals fled en masse from
a civil upheaval during the so-called "Period of Warring States",
eventually settling in Japan, where they inter-bred with the Caucasoid Jomon
natives. Today’s Japanese are the
offspring of ancient China’s cultural elite and indigenous Whites. Hitler not only admired the Japanese for
their inherent greatness, but recognized that they alone stood against the
Communist take-over of Asia. Here, too,
he was more than correct: In destroying the Japanese Empire the US ensured the
future Korean and Vietnamese Wars.
Fleet Admiral Chester

1941 The American Council of Christian Churches
(ACCC) was founded in 1941 under the leadership of Carl McIntire. McIntire and others created a fundamentalist
organization set up in opposition to the Federal Council of Churches (now
National Council of Churches). The ACCC
motto is Jude 3: "Earnestly contending for the Faith". Membership is by admittance by a 3/4 majority
vote. Agreement with the purposes and
doctrinal statement are required and membership is specifically denied to those
who have affiliations with: the World Council of Churches (WCC) or any of its
affiliates, such as the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the
U.S.A. (NCC), the World Evangelical Fellowship (WEF) or any of its affiliates,
such as the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE), the modern Charismatic Movement,
or the Ecumenical Movement... Offices
are in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The ACCC
is the national equivalent of the International Council of Christian Churches. In July 2007, the leadership of the ACCC
issued a statement criticizing a recent declaration by the Congregation for the
Doctrine of the Faith on the meaning of the phrase subsistit in which
re-emphasized the role of the Catholic Church as the subsisting Church of
Christ.

The United Service Organizations
Inc. (USO) is a nonprofit organization that provides programs, services and
live entertainment to US troops and their families. Since 1941, it has worked in partnership with
the Department of Defense (DOD), relying heavily on private contributions and
on funds, goods, and services from various corporate and individual donors. Although congressionally chartered, it is not
a government agency. The USO operates
160 centers worldwide. After it was
disbanded in 1947, it was revived in 1950 for the Korean War, after which it
also provided peacetime services. During
the Vietnam War, USOs were sometimes located in combat zones. The organization became particularly famous
for its live performances called Camp Shows, through which the entertainment
industry helped boost the morale of its servicemen and women. Hollywood in
general was eager to show its patriotism, and many famous celebrities joined
the ranks of USO entertainers. They
entertained in military bases at home and overseas, sometimes placing their own
lives in danger, by traveling or performing under hazardous conditions. Today the USO has over 160 locations around
the world in 14 countries (including the U.S.) and 27 states. In 2011, USO
centers served 8 million visitors.
The USO was founded in 1941 in response to a request from
President Franklin D. Roosevelt to provide morale and recreation services to
U.S. uniformed military personnel. Roosevelt
was elected as its honorary chairman. This
request brought together six civilian organizations: the Salvation Army, Young
Men’s Christian Association (YMCA), Young Women’s Christian Association (YWCA),
National Catholic Community Service, National Travelers Aid Association and the
National Jewish Welfare Board. They were
brought together under one umbrella to support U.S. troops. Roosevelt said he
wanted "these private organizations to handle the on-leave recreation of
the men in the armed forces." According to historian Emily Yellin, "The
government was to build the buildings and the USO was to raise private funds to
carry out its main mission: boosting the morale of the military." The sixty-six USO (United Services
Organizations) shows in the theater on V-E Day played to three-quarters of a
million men a month. Jeep Shows and
Soldier Shows, using Army personnel, provided additional live entertainment. An estimated eight out of every ten soldiers
saw at least three movies a week. To
provide active and passive diversions, USFET Special Services stocked 21,000
basketballs, 100,000 dozen table tennis balls, and nearly 350,000 decks of
cards and issued, by November 1945, 1443 libraries (each containing 1,000
cloth-bound books), close to 15 million paperback books, and over 44 million
magazines. The most popular spectator
sport was football.
The Germans had started their
version in 1935.
The Klatt (Jewish)
Network, was the name of an Abwehr-run German network established in Sofia
to receive intelligence reports about Soviet troop dispositions on the Eastern
front and British dispositions in the Middle East. The existence of this network was revealed to
the British in the winter of 1941-1942 by ISOS reports of intercepted Abwehr
communications, but the source of the intelligence that the Klatt network was
receiving was unclear. Intercepted British
and Russian radio communications were ruled out as the source after an
investigation, and it seemed that the Max reports of Russian intelligence might
be sourced from a large clandestine network of German spies behind Russian
lines. There were no clues as to the
source of Moritz reports on British movements.
Two theories have developed as to the source of these
reports. One, supported by these files,
holds that the intelligence supplied to the Klatt network was disinformation
run by the Soviets through penetration of White Russian circles which supplied
information to the Klatt network. An
alternative view, drawing on the value that the Germans placed on the sources
and the cost in human terms to the Soviets of the information gathered by the
Abwehr through the Klatt network, asserts that Kauder and his associates in the
Klatt network concocted the intelligence for financial gain.
Richard Kauder was the leader. Kauder's main sources were Ira Longin and
General Turkul. While some commentators
believe Kauder fabricated his intelligence for financial gain, the view
expressed in these files is that Longin and Turkul were under Soviet control
and were used to feed disinformation to the Abwehr. General Anton Turkul was the leader of a
group of White Russians. Other figures
involved either on the German or the Russian side with the network were Joseph
and Greta Hirsch, Pedro Prat y Soutzo, Hugo Kittel, Vladimir Velkotny, George
Romanoff and Nikolaus Kowaleski.
“Stalin's Secret War:
Soviet Counterintelligence Against the Nazis, 1941-1945” by Robert S.
Stephan (10/1, 2011) The Soviet-German
War of 1941-1945 was the most extensive intelligence/counterintelligence war in
modern history, involving the capture, torture, deportation, execution, and
"doubling" of tens of thousands of agents--most of them Soviet
citizens. While Russian armies fought
furiously to defeat the Wehrmacht, Stalin's security services waged an equally
ruthless secret war against Hitler's spies, as well as against the Soviet
population. Employing as many as 150,000
trained agents across a 2,400-mile front, the Soviets neutralized the majority
of the more than 40,000 German agents deployed against them. Their combination of Soviet military deception
operations and State Security's defeat of the Abwehr's human intelligence
effort had devastating consequences for the German Army in every major battle
against the Red army, including Moscow, Stalingrad, Kursk, the Belorussian
offensive, and the Vistula-Oder operation.
Simultaneously, Soviet State Security continued to penetrate the world's
major intelligence services including those of its allies, terrorize its own
citizens to prevent spying, desertion, and real or perceived opposition to the
regime, and run millions of informants, making the USSR a vast prison covering
one sixth of the world's surface. Stephan
discusses all facets of the Soviet counterintelligence effort, including the
major Soviet "radio games" used to mislead the Germans--operations
Monastery, Berezino, and those that defeated Himmler's Operation Zeppelin. He also gives the most comprehensive account
to date of the Abwehr's infamous agent "Max," whose organization
allegedly ran an entire network of agents inside the USSR, and reveals the
reasons for Germany's catastrophic under-estimation of Soviet forces by more
than one million men during their 1944 summer offensive in Belorussia.
Carl McIntire (5/17, 1906 – 3/19, 2002) was a founder and minister
in the Bible Presbyterian Church, founder and long president of the
International Council of Christian Churches and the American Council of Christian Churches,
and a popular religious radio broadcaster, who proudly identified himself as a
fundamentalist. In 1933, he was called
to the Presbyterian Church of Collingswood, New Jersey and in 1937 formed the
Bible Presbyterian Church, which emphasized Fundamentalist distinctives in
contrast to continental Reformed traditions, supporting political involvement,
the Scofield Reference Bible, a premillennialist view of eschatology, and
abstinence from the use of tobacco and alcohol.
In February 1936, McIntire launched a weekly newspaper, The Christian
Beacon. In March 1955, McIntire initiated a daily thirty-minute radio program, "The
Twentieth Century Reformation Hour," which featured McIntire's commentary
on religious and political affairs. In
1941, he helped create the American Council of Christian Churches (ACCC) as a
conservative alternative to the liberal Federal (later, National) Council of
Churches (NCC). In 1948, he likewise
helped to found the International Council of Christian Churches (ICCC) to
challenge the World Council of Churches (WCC).
McIntire was elected first President of the ICCC and was reelected at
each World Congress until he died.
Before and during World War II, McIntire opposed Nazi totalitarianism
and anti-semitism, and afterwards he became a champion of anti-Communism.
Robert Gilbert Vansittart, 1st Baron
Vansittart GCB, GCMG, PC, MVO (6/25, 1881 – 2/14, 1957) was a senior British
diplomat in the prior and during WWII. He is best remembered for his opposition to
Appeasement and his hardline stance towards Germany. Vansittart was also a published poet,
novelist, and playwright. Vansittart was
suspicious of Hitler from the start; anything Hitler said, he claimed, was
"for foreign consumption". He
thought Hitler would start another European war as soon as he "felt strong
enough". Vansittart supported
revising the Versailles Treaty in Germany's favor but not while Hitler was in
power. In Vansittart's view, Britain
should be firm with Germany, and an alliance between France and the Soviet
Union against Germany was essential. Vansittart also urgently advocated rearmament.
Yet, Vansittart favored facilitating
German expansion in Africa. He thought
that Hitler was exploiting fears of a "Bolshevist menace" as a cover
for "expansion in Central and South-Eastern Europe".
Like Sir Maurice Hankey, Vansittart thought in power
politics terms. He thought Hitler could not decide whether to follow Goebbels
and Tirpitz in viewing Britain as "the ultimate enemy" or on the
other hand adopting the Ribbentrop policy of appeasing Britain in order to
engage in military expansion in the East. Vansittart thought that in either case time
should be "bought for rearmament" by an economic agreement with
Germany and by appeasing "genuine grievance[s]" about colonies. Vansittart wanted to detach Mussolini from
Hitler. He thought that the British
Empire was an "Incubus" and that the Continent was the central
British national interest, but he doubted whether agreement could be had there.
This doubt rested on his fear that
German attention, if turned eastwards, would result in a military empire
between the Baltic, the Adriatic Sea and the Black Sea.
In 1940, Vansittart sued the
American historian Harry Elmer Barnes
for libel for an article Barnes had written in 1939 accusing Vansittart of
plotting aggression against Germany in 1939. During the war, Vansittart became a prominent
advocate of an extremely hard line with Germany. His earlier worries about Germany were
reformulated into an argument that Germany was intrinsically militaristic and
aggressive. In Black Record: Germans Past and Present (1941), Vansittart portrayed
German history from the time of ancient Rome as a continuous record of
aggression. Nazism was just the latest
manifestation. Therefore, after Germany was defeated, it must be stripped of all
military capacity, including its heavy industries. The German people
enthusiastically supported Hitler's wars of aggression, just as they supported
the Franco-Prussian War in 1870 and the First World War in 1914. So they must be thoroughly re-educated under
strict Allied supervision for at least a generation. De-Nazification was not enough. The German military elite was the real cause
of war, especially the "Prussianist" officer corps and the General
Staff: both must be destroyed. In 1943
he wrote: “In the opinion of the author, it is an illusion to differentiate
between the German right, center, or left, or the German Catholics or
Protestants, or the German workers or capitalists. They are all alike, and the only hope for a
peaceful Europe is a crushing and violent military defeat followed by a couple
of generations of re-education controlled by the United Nations.” Also: “We didn't go to war in 1939 to save
Germany from Hitler...or the continent from fascism. Like in 1914 we went to war for the not lesser
noble cause that we couldn't accept a German hegemony over Europe.”

William Montgomery McGovern (9/28, 1897 – 12/12, 1964) was an American
adventurer, Northwestern University professor, anthropologist and
journalist. He was possibly an inspiration for the character of Indiana
Jones. McGovern's life may be more
incredible than the fictional character he spawned. By age 30, he had already explored the Amazon
and braved uncharted regions of the Himalayas, survived revolution in Mexico,
studied at Oxford and the Sorbonne and become a Buddhist priest in a Japanese
monastery. He became a beloved lecturer,
war correspondent and military strategist.
McGovern joined the US Naval Reserve, serving from 1941 to 1945. At Guadalcanal, he operated behind enemy
lines, using his knowledge of Japanese to taunt enemy soldiers and interrogate
captives. In the closing days of the war
he served in the European Theatre, crossing the Rhine with General Patton. His most important job was not martial in
nature however. Throughout the war he would rise at 5:30 AM to prepare a
top-secret newspaper on enemy capabilities and intentions. This paper was
considered required breakfast reading for President Roosevelt and the Joint
Chiefs. “From Luther to Hitler: The History of Fascist-Nazi Political
Philosophy” (1941)
