King Leonidas of Sparta and the Epic Battle of the 300 at Thermopylae

Zack Snyder’s 2007 fantasy historical film, 300, has probably made the Battle of Thermopylae one of the most famous battles of the ancient world. However, the film has more fantasy than history in it. Most people are aware that the leader of the Greeks during the battle was Leonidas of Sparta. Yet, how much do we actually know about King Leonidas, and what happened with ‘the 300’ during the Battle of Thermopylae ?

Who was King Leonidas?

According to ancient Greek historian Herodotus, Leonidas was the son of King Alexandridas and his first wife, an unnamed woman who was also the king’s niece. Leonidas, however, was not the first child, as his father’s second wife bore a son, Cleomenes. Soon after this, Alexandridas’ first wife bore a son as well, Dorieus, who was Leonidas’ elder brother.

After Dorieus was born, the king’s first wife was pregnant with Leonidas, and he was followed by Cleombrotus; although Herodotus suggests that there was an account stating that Leonidas and Cleombrotus were twins.

Leonidas’ ascension to the throne of Sparta in 489 BC was, as described by Herodotus, ‘a result of an unforeseeable situation’. As the third son of Alexandridas, Leonidas’ chances of obtaining the throne were rather slim, and he had no designs on the kingship. Upon the death of Alexandridas, the Spartan throne went to Cleomenes.

The new king, however, died without a male heir. Additionally, Dorieus lost his life on an expedition in Sicily. This meant that Leonidas was the eldest surviving son of Alexandridas, and he was the best person to succeed his bother. Moreover, Leonidas had married Cleomenes’ daughter, Gorgo.

The Spartan King Faces Persian Invasions

The new king Leonidas did not have an easy task ahead of him. Several years earlier, the Persians under King Darius I had invaded Greece, primarily in order to punish the city-states of Athens and Eretria, who had supported the cities of Ionia during their revolt against Persian rule. The invasion ended with the decisive Athenian victory at the Battle of Marathon in 490 BC, but it was not long before Darius began raising a huge new army with which he intended to return with full force. The threat of another Persian invasion threw the Greek states into alliance though many were still technically at war with each other.

Darius was unable to launch an offensive in Greece immediately because of rebellions in other sectors of his empire, and in 486 BC, while he was quelling these, he was killed in battle. His son, Xerxes, ascended to the throne. Determined to avenge his father’s defeat, Xerxes began to muster forces to once again invade Greece.

By 480 BC, Xerxes had built up an enormous army of some 150,000 men and a navy of 600 ships. He was now ready. In late August or early September of 480 BC, Xerxes launched his offensive upon Greece in what is now known as the Battle of Thermopylae .

The Battle of Thermopylae is the most famous battle of the Second Persian Invasion of Greece and one of the most famous battles in European ancient history. Unlike other battles, however, it was not a victory for the Greeks, but a defeat. Its fame is derived from being one of the most courageous last stands by the vastly outnumbered defending army of Greek city states, led by King Leonidas of Sparta, against the invading Persians under King Xerxes .

Zack Snyder’s 2007 fantasy historical film, 300, has probably made the Battle of Thermopylae one of the most famous battles of the ancient world. However, the film has more fantasy than history in it. Most people are aware that the leader of the Greeks during the battle was Leonidas of Sparta.

A Vision from the Oracle

Herodotus reports that before going into battle at Thermopylae, Leonidas consulted with the famous Oracle of Delphi , who issued a grim prophecy:

For you, inhabitants of wide-wayed Sparta,
Either your great and glorious city must be wasted by Persian men,
Or if not that, then the bound of Lacedaemon must mourn a dead king, from Heracles’’line.
The might of bulls or lions will not restrain him with opposing strength; for he has the might of Zeus.
I declare that he will not be restrained until he utterly tears apart one of these
‘Herodotus’. English translation by A. D. Godley. Cambridge. Harvard University Press. 1920

The Oracle’s prophecy convinced Leonidas that he would not survive the battle against the Persians. Keeping this in mind, he selected only men with living sons for his Spartan contingent, so that should they fall in battle, their sons could carry forward their family lines. En-route to the battlefield, the Spartans recruited several forces from other Greek states.

The Epic Battle of Thermopylae

The Battle of Thermopylae took place over three days. For the first two days, the Greeks were able to hold the front line, preventing the Persians from breaking through the narrow pass. Their longer thrusting spears and their heavy shields and body armor gave them a distinct advantage over the Persians, who were equipped with shorter javelin-type spears , wicker shields, and armor made only of woven linen.

The Greeks employed a phalanx formation, a rectangular mass military formation composed entirely of heavy infantry armed with spears, which was able to block the narrow pass with ease. The Spartans also used a clever strategy in which they pretended to retreat so that the Persians pursued them. They would then turn suddenly to attack. In the confusion they killed many of the enemy, who were caught off-guard. The ‘Immortals,’ the elite troops of the Persian army, had not yet broken the Greek defense.

Betrayal

The tide turned when during the battle, a Malian (member of a Greek tribe) named Ephialtes, revealed a path that led the Persians around the mountain towards the back of the defending force. As darkness fell, Xerxes sent his best soldiers to take the path and come around behind the Greek army guarding the pass below.

When word reached Leonidas that their position had been compromised, he made a decision that continues to be the subject of immense analysis and debate – rather than abandon their position and withdraw to the south before the Persians arrived, Leonidas relieved the majority of his army, while ordering the 300 Spartans, 700 Thespians, and 400 Thebans to remain and fight.

It is unclear why he chose to stay, along with his small contingent of Spartans, Thespians, and Thebans. Herodotus represents it as an act of deliberate courage and self-sacrifice carried out in accordance with the oracle’s prophecy. Other historians maintain that he remained in order to give the allied contingents, whom he dismissed (apart from the Thebans and Thespians), time to escape. In any case, there could only be one outcome – their slaughter.

Fall of the 300 Spartans and Their Companions

On the third and final day of the battle, the Persians had moved behind the Greek position and surrounded them in both directions. King Leonidas, as well as every last soldier that stood with him, were killed.

When Xerxes came to Leonidas’ corpse at the end of the battle, it is reported that he had his men cut off the head and stick it on a pole, something not customarily done by the Persians, who normally treated a valiant opponent with honor. This was taken by Herodotus as a sign that Leonidas was a huge thorn in Xerxes’ side.

The Battle’s Aftermath

The Battle of Thermophylae was undoubtedly a defeat for the Greeks, which allowed the Persians to continue their march into Greece. They eventually reached and sacked Athens. Nevertheless, the defeat at Thermopylae had turned Leonidas and the men under his command into martyrs. This boosted the morale of the surviving Greek soldiers, who went on to defeat the Persians in the Battles of Salamis and Plataea, which effectively ended the Second Persian Invasion.

Moreover, the battle left a legacy that lasted for millennia, demonstrating the courage of a small number of warriors, who in the face of a much larger enemy, stood their ground until the bitter end.

Remembering the 300 and the Battle of Thermopylae

Next year will be the 2,500th anniversary of the Battle of Thermopylae and Sparta mayor Petros Doukas said that some international events have been planned in commemoration. There is an international committee, consisting of historians, politicians, and royals, who are “organizing events truly worthy of Sparta, Leonidas and the 300,” according to Doukas.

Greek Reporter writes that “The Thermopylae commemoration will include scores of events which highlight the achievements of ancient Spartan civilization , including politics, geopolitics, poetry, philosophy, gymnastics, dance, martial arts, Spartan cuisine, and many others.”

1939 – 1941 WORLD WAR II (From Poland to the Eve of Pearl Harbor)

AUGUST 25, 1939

BRITAIN & POLAND AGREE TO A MILITARY ALLIANCE
The Polish-British Common Defense Pact contains promises of British military
assistance in the event that Poland is attacked by another European country. This
builds upon a previous agreement (March 1939) between the two countries, and also
with France, by specifically committing to military action in the event of an attack.
With this agreement, Zionist-Globalist forces in the UK have trapped the
reluctant Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, as well as France. All that is left to do

now is for Polish-Jewish border thugs, under the protection of Marshal Edward Rydz-
Smigly, to deliberately provoke Germany into action and get the war started. On the

nights of August 25 to August 31 inclusive, there occur many violent attacks on
German civilians as well as German officials and property.

QUOTE TO REMEMBER:

“Chamberlain (speaking off the record to Ambassador Kennedy while golfing)
stated that the America and the world Jews had forced England into the war”.

AUGUST 28, 1939

HITLER ISSUES AN OPEN PEACE LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT OF FRANCE

Now emboldened by Britain, France and, from ‘behind the scenes’, Roosevelt, Poland’s
relentless and murderous abuse of its captive German population reaches the breaking
point. Hitler is prepared for war with Poland but is still attempting to preserve peace,
especially with France and Britain. In an open letter to French President Daladier, Hitler
makes yet another impassioned plea for peace.

Some pertinent excerpts:

“My dear Minister President:
I understand the misgiving to which you give expression. I, too, have never
overlooked the grave responsibilities which are imposed upon those who are in
charge of the fate of nations. As an old front line fighter, I, like you, know the horrors
of war. Guided by this attitude and experience, I have tried to remove all matters that
might cause conflict between our two peoples.
As you could judge for yourself during your last visit here, the German people, in the
knowledge of its own behavior held and holds no ill feelings, much less hatred, for its
one-time brave opponent. On the contrary, the pacification of our western frontier led
to an increasing sympathy.
I am deeply convinced that if, especially, England at that time had, instead of starting
a wild campaign against Germany in the press and instead of launching rumors of a
German mobilization, somehow talked the Poles into being reasonable, Europe today
and for twenty-five years could enjoy a condition of deepest peace. As things were, Polish public opinion was excited by a lie about German aggression.The Polish government declined the proposals. Polish public opinion, convinced that England and France would now fight for Poland, began to make demands one might possibly stigmatize as laughable insanity were they not so tremendously dangerous.
At that point an unbearable terror, a physical and economic persecution of the
Germans although they numbered more than a million and a half began in the
regions ceded by the Reich.
May I now take the liberty of putting a question to you, Herr Daladier: How would
you act as a Frenchman if, through some unhappy issue of a brave struggle, one of
your provinces severed by a corridor occupied by a foreign power? And if a big city –
let us say Marseilles – were hindered from belonging to France and if Frenchmen
living in this area were persecuted, beaten and maltreated, yes, murdered, in a
bestial manner?
I see no way of persuading Poland, which feels herself as unassailable, now that she
enjoys the protection of her guarantees, to accept a peaceful solution. If our two
countries on that account should be destined to meet again on the field of battle,
there would nevertheless be a difference in the motives. I, Herr Daladier, shall be
leading my people in a fight to rectify a wrong, whereas the others would be
fighting to preserve that wrong.”

QUOTE TO REMEMBER

“German men and women were hunted like wild beasts through the streets of
Bromberg. When they were caught, they were mutilated and torn to pieces by the
Polish mob. . . . Every day the butchery increased. . . . Thousands of Germans fled
from their homes in Poland with nothing more than the clothes that they wore..
On the nights of August 25 to August 31 inclusive, there occurred, besides
innumerable attacks on civilians of German blood, 44 perfectly authenticated acts
of armed violence against German official persons and property.”

William Joyce, Irish defector to Germany

AUGUST 31, 1939

‘THE GLEIWITZ’ (& other) BORDER ATTACKS / JEWISH-POLISH GUERILLAS ATTACK GERMAN RADIO STATION

Overestimating their strength, underestimating German strength, and believing that
France and the UK would now back him, Marshal Smigly allows Polish-Jewish
partisan terrorists to cross the border and attack a German radio station in Germany.
It is actually the latest in a string of deliberate border instigations against
Germany.
The “Poles” then broadcast a message (in Polish) urging others to take up arms and
start killing Germans. German police quickly arrive and retake the station, killing one
of the Red terrorists. Jewish Red terrorists, their Polish government protectors,
and their Globalist-Zionist masters have picked a fight with Germany!
Modern fake historians claim that the Gleiwitz incident was staged by Germans
dressed as Polish terrorists. But as is the case with the Reichstag Fire conspiracy

theory, they offer no evidence to support this oft-repeated lie, (beyond a forced
“confession” obtained after the war) to support this theory – a theory that ignores the
outrageous and repeated pattern of provocations directed at Hitler’s Germany ever
since 1933, the numerous border incidents, the murders of Germans and also Hitler’s
sincere attempts to negotiate a resolution to the Corridor and Danzig controversies.

QUOTE TO REMEMBER
“I lived in Germany during the 1980’s when many people who lived during the war
were still alive. I sought out anyone who lived near Poland in 1939 and was lucky
enough to meet several people. One was a customs official who said it was so bad on
the border they were armed and also had grenades in their office ready for attacks.
Another told me his farm animals were often stolen by Polish (Jewish?) terrorists.
Another told of his niece being raped by a Pole (Jew?) who crossed the border. He
told me in 1940 they caught the man and showed me a copy of the death order signed
by Heydrich, in which he ordered the man be put to death.
This is just one of many stories told to me by German civilians who witnessed these
border incursions just like had happened in 1919-1928. One thing many people fail to
see is that Poland openly attacked Germany right after World War I, which led to
many border battles. Once Germany started pressing Poland to work out a solution
to the corridor, the attacks started again. .And one thing that is clear to me is that
Germany did not make up for these attacks.”

–George H. Ohio, USA

Hitler has had about all he could take from Poland.

QUOTE TO REMEMBER

“This (Declaration of War) is the fault of the anti-appeasers and the fucking Jews.”

British Duke Arthur Wellesley (5th Duke of Wellington) was the great grandson of the famous Duke of Wellington who defeated Napoleon.

SEPTEMBER 7-16, 1939

THE SAAR OFFENSIVE / FRANCE INVADES GERMANY
The Saar Offensive is a French ground invasion into Saarland, Germany. The large
scale assault is to be carried out by 40 divisions and 40 tank battalions. According to
the Franco-Polish military convention, the French Army was to gain control over
the area between the French border and the Siegfried Line of German defense. Much
to the dismay of the fools in Poland, the full 40-division all-out assault never materializes. The empty promises of empire were just an Allied trick just to get stupid Marshal Smigly to start the fight with Germany.
But a limited invasion and occupation of Germany’s Saar region does indeed occur.
On October 16 & 17, the German army, now reinforced with troops returning from
the Polish campaign, conducts a counter-offensive which retakes the lost territory
from the invading French. In liberating what the French had invaded, the Germans
lose 196 soldiers, plus 114 missing and 356 wounded. Hitler continues to plea for peace.
So you see, dear reader, the Anglo-French Allies not only instigated the war, and
not only were the first to declare war, they also drew first blood upon Germany.

SEPTEMBER 17, 1939

SOVIET UNION INVADES POLAND FROM THE EAST / ALLIES SAY NOTHING

With the Polish army being routed by the advancing Germans in the west, Stalin
cleverly decides to break the Soviet-Polish Non Aggression Pact of 1932. Poland is
stabbed in the back as Soviet forces pour in from the east. The advancing Reds carry
out massacres, the most infamous being the Katyn Forest Massacre in which 10,000
Polish Army officers are shot in the head.
Other than the pre-Versailles German areas which Germany reclaims, the Soviets will
eventually take all of Poland. In a shocking double-standard, the anti-German,
FDR, France & the UK remain oddly silent about this brutal Soviet aggression.
Poland appeals to Britain and France for help, citing the Poland-British
Defense Pact just signed a few weeks ago. The Polish ambassador in London
contacts the British Foreign Office pointing out that clause 1(b) of the agreement,
which concerned an “aggression by a European power” on Poland, should apply to
the Soviet invasion. The UK Foreign Secretary responds with hostility, stating that it
was Britain’s decision whether to declare war on the Soviet Union.
The truth is, the Allies don’t give a rat’s ass about Poland. They only used its stupid
ultra-nationalist leader (who by now has shamelessly abandoned his troops and fled
to Romania), to instigate Hitler so that they could have their war. The horror that
Poland will suffer under Soviet occupation is now Poland’s problem, not the Allies’.

SEPTEMBER 17, 1939

GERMANY DEFEATS POLAND / DANZIG AND ALL OF PRUSSIA REUNITED WITH THE REST OF GERMANY

Within a few weeks, the German-Polish War is already over. Hitler receives a hero’s
welcome upon his arrival in liberated Danzig. Hitler addresses the Danzig crowd:
“No power on earth would have borne this condition as long as Germany. I do not
know what England would have said about a similar peace solution (Versailles) at its
expense or how America or France would have accepted it.
I attempted to find a tolerable solution – even for this problem. I submitted this
attempt to the Polish rulers in the form of verbal proposals. .You know these
proposals. They were more than moderate. I do not know what mental condition the
Polish Government was in when it refused these proposals. …….As an answer,
Poland gave the order for the first mobilization. Thereupon wild terror was initiated,
and my request to the Polish Foreign Minister to visit me in Berlin once more to
discuss these questions was refused. Instead of going to Berlin, he went to
London.”
Hitler rightfully mocks Smigly as a coward:
“The Polish Marshal, who miserably deserted his armies, said that he would hack the
German Army to pieces.”

OCTOBER, 1939 – MAY, 1940

HITLER PLEADS FOR PEACE WITH BRITAIN & FRANCE
The German-Polish War has ended quickly. The Allies never had any intention of
helping Poland. The French actually invade Germany on September 7th,
advancing 8 km before stopping. The quiet period between the end of the Polish
war until May 1940, is dubbed by a U.S. Senator as “The Phony War.”
During this time, Hitler pleads for the Allies to withdraw their war declarations.
Towards France he declares:.“I have always expressed to France my desire to bury
forever our ancient enmity and bring together these two nations, both of which
have such glorious pasts.” To the British, Hitler says: “I have devoted no less effort to the achievement of Anglo-German friendship. At no time and in no place have I ever acted contrary to British interests….Why should this war in the West be fought?”
Hitler’s pleas for peace are ignored as the allies begin to mobilize more than
2,000,000 troops in Northern France. Plans are openly discussed to advance
eastward upon Germany, via “neutral” Belgium and Holland, as well as establishing
operations in “neutral” Norway and Denmark, with or without their consent.

NOVEMBER 4, 1939

FDR REPEALS THE NEUTRALITY ACTS

The Neutrality Acts prohibited the United States from selling arms to warring
nations. The purpose of these acts was to prevent the U.S. from again becoming
involved in Europe’s wars.
Throughout the 1930’s, FDR and his Zionist advisor Bernard Baruch (who had also
been an advisor to Woodrow Wilson), anticipating a new war against Germany, had
unsuccessfully tried to amend the previous Neutrality Acts. Soon after Germany
and Poland began fighting, FDR again urges Congress to repeal the Neutrality Acts.
In November of ’39, a new Neutrality Act is passed. The sale of arms to the UK is
now legal. The scheming FDR has taken a big step towards involving America in a
war that his Zio-Globo handlers have long been agitating for.

APRIL 9, 1940

GERMANY IS FORCED INTO PRE-EMPTIVE, LIMITED OCCUPATIONS OF NORWAY & DENMARK

The Allied plan of attack is to disrupt Germany’s iron ore imports from Sweden by
illegally mining Norwegian waters, and then occupying the important Norwegian port
of Narvik. Plans are also made for imposing a base of operations in Denmark,
Germany’s neutral neighbor to its north.
A Norwegian politician named Vidkun Quisling confirms the existence of these Allied plots.

(Operation Wilfred and Plan R 4). Sympathetic to Germany, and not wanting his country to become a battlefield, Quisling informs Hitler of the Anglo-French plot to wage war from the two Scandinavian countries.

Germany moves quickly to secure the Norwegian port of Narvik just before the
British can place their mines, and also to occupy Denmark. German diplomats assure
the leaders of both Scandinavian nations that Germany seeks neither conquest nor
interference in internal affairs. Life under limited German occupation goes on
quietly for the Scandinavians during the war. Quisling’s name is now a dictionary
word in the English language, synonymous with “traitor” – a totally unfair characterization.

MAY 10, 1940

GREAT BRITAIN INVADES NEUTRAL ICELAND

The British invasion of tiny, neutral Iceland is code named “Operation Fork.” It
begins on May 10, 1940 (the same day that Churchill comes to power) with British
troops disembarking in the Capital City of Reykjavik.

The British quickly move inland, disabling communications networks and securing landing locations.

The government of Iceland protests the violation of their neutrality, but to no avail.
This force is then subsequently augmented, to a final strength of 25,000.

The recently thwarted British occupations of neutral Denmark and Norway, and the successful
occupation of neutral Iceland, show that Rothschild Britain is the true aggressor of the coming war in Western Europe. Although FDR, up until December 1941, promises that America will remain non-belligerent, 30,000 US troops will relieve the British and occupy Iceland in spring of 1941.

MAY 10, 1940

WINSTON CHURCHILL BECOMES UK’s PRIME MINISTER
With the preparations for war in place, the reluctant warrior Neville Chamberlain is
finally pushed aside as the lunatic, drunken, cigar chomping Winston Churchill takes
his place. Churchill’s record of treason already includes the World War I sinking of
the Lusitania (when he was Lord of the Admiralty).
Churchill, and his wealthy London (and New York) Zionist backers, have been
advocating for war with Germany for the past 6 years. His warmongering had made
him an outcast in British politics. But now, with the Zionist press of Britain
misrepresenting the facts surrounding the German-Polish War, Churchill is portrayed
as some sort of wise prophet.
Hitler knows very well who Churchill is, and who he works for. He had even referred
to Churchill in past speeches as part of Britain’s “government of tomorrow”. With
Chamberlain gone and Churchill now in power, Hitler now knows for certain that
“the Phony War” is about to become very real.

QUOTE TO REMEMBER:

“I emphasized that the defeat of Germany and Japan and their elimination from
world trade would give Britain a tremendous opportunity to swell her foreign
commerce in both volume and profit.”

– Bernard M. Baruch

MAY 10, 1940

GERMANY LAUNCHES PRE-EMPTIVE INVASION OF ‘LOW COUNTRIES’

Hitler’s pleas for peace have been repeatedly ignored as 400,000 British and at least
2,000,000 French troops have massed in northern France. The massive invasion
of Germany’s industrial Ruhr region is to come through the ostensibly “neutral”
League of Nations member states of Belgium and The Netherlands (Holland), whose
governments are under intense Allied pressure to allow safe passage for the planned
Allied attack on the bordering Ruhr region of Germany.
Again, Hitler’s hand is forced. On the same day that Churchill comes to power, and
that the UK invades Iceland, as an act of national self-defense, Germany takes the
fight to the Allies before they can bring it to German soil and reinstitute a 2nd
Versailles Treaty. In a stunning advance westward, the German Blitzkrieg quickly
overtakes the smaller nations (known as the Low Countries because of their
geography) and pushes the Allied armies into a full retreat towards the beaches of
northern France.
The Globo-Zionist press, as well as today’s history books, portrays the Blitz as “the
Nazi conquest of Holland, Belgium, and France.” But the menacing presence of
the massive Allied force on Germany’s industrial frontier is conveniently
ignored, as is the undeniable and extensive collaboration between the “neutral”
Low Countries and the Allies.

MAY 10, 1940

ALLIES BOMB GERMAN TOWN OF FRIEBURG / 20 CHILDREN KILLED IN A PLAYGROUND

The medieval and non-strategic German town of Freiburg is located just 20 miles
from the French border. In the opening hours of the war in the west, new Prime
Minister Churchill and his French allies waste no time in murdering civilians. About
60 bombs are dropped on or near Freiburg; killing 50 civilians including 20 children
who were playing outside. This was the first bombing of civilians in World War II.
In order to whitewash this horrific deed from the pages of history; and to maintain the
historical myth that it was Germany that initiated the bombings of civilians; court
historians have long promoted the ridiculous lie that the Germans accidentally
bombed their own town and then blamed the event on the Allies in order to cover up
the mistake. Subsequent terror bombings of German civilians will dispel any doubt
that Churchill was indeed capable of deliberately exterminating civilians.

MAY, 1940

HITLER TRIES FOR PEACE THROUGH A SWEDISH CHANNEL
After having just defeated the French and British invaders, Hitler, via a Swedish third
party, proposes generous peace terms to Britain. The Germans contact the British
ambassador in Sweden, Victor Mallet, through Sweden ́s Supreme Court Judge
Ekeberg, who is known to Hitler ́s legal advisor, Ludwig Weissauer. Hitler ́s peace proposal demands nothing of Great Britain and implies that the states currently occupied by Germany would be de-occupied; as Germany ́s occupation was only due to the present war situation. But Winston Churchill is not interested in peace. The offer goes nowhere.

MAY 25-28, 1940

“THE WAR CABINET CRISIS” / CHURCHILL AND LORD HALIFAX DIVIDED OVER ITALIAN PEACE MEDIATION

Giuseppe Bastianini, the Italian ambassador in London, requests a meeting with
British Foreign Secretary Lord Halifax to discuss Italy’s neutrality. Halifax meets
Bastianini later that afternoon. The discussion soon moves to that of Italian mediation
between the Allies and Germany.
Bastianini reveals that the goal of Italian leader Benito Mussolini (Hitler’s close ally)
is to negotiate a settlement “that would not merely be an armistice, but would
protect European peace for the century.” Halifax responds very favorably to
the idea and takes it to the British War Cabinet.
The following morning Halifax reports to the War Cabinet, summarizing his meeting
with Bastianini and urging his colleagues to consider Italian mediation. Again,
Churchill would have none of it!
For several days, Halifax continues to press for the Mussolini mediation. In an
apparent attempt to placate Halifax, Churchill states that he doubts whether anything
would come of an approach to Italy, but that the matter was one which the War

Cabinet should consider. But Churchill is lying to Halifax. Never once did
Churchill even consider Mussolini’s offer to mediate peace between Britain and

Germany. The matter eventually dies after Churchill outmaneuvers the peace-
seeking Halifax. The conflict is known as ‘The War Cabinet Crisis’.

MAY 27 – JUNE 4, 1940

AS A SIGN OF FRIENDSHIP, HITLER ALLOWS THE ALLIED ARMIES TO ESCAPE AT DUNKIRK

After Germany’s stunning advance, the Allies are trapped on the beaches of Dunkirk,
France. The entire force can be easily captured, but Hitler issues a halt order.
As a show of good faith towards his western tormentors, Hitler believes that the
British will be more likely to make peace if they can escape with their dignity intact.
A massive boat lift involving British fishermen ferries the troops across the English
Channel back to England. The Globalist Press maliciously spins Hitler’s gracious act
as a “miraculous escape right under Hitler’s nose.”
The cigar-chomping, Zionist-owned, alcoholic Winston Churchill vows to keep
fighting as he frightens the British people with tales of imminent German invasion.

QUOTE TO REMEMBER:

“He (Hitler) then astonished us by speaking with admiration of the British Empire,
of the necessity for its existence, and of the civilization that Britain had brought
into the world. ….He compared the British Empire with the Catholic Church
saying they were both essential elements of stability in the world. He said that all he
wanted from Britain was that she should acknowledge Germany’s position on the
Continent. The return of Germany’s colonies would be desirable but not essential,
and he would even offer to support Britain with troops if she should be involved in
difficulties anywhere.”

German General von Blumentritt

SOVIET UNION INVADES 4 COUNTRIES AT THE SAME TIME! / LATVIA, LITHUANIA, ESTONIA, & EASTERN ROMANIA

With the eyes of the world focused on events in Western Europe, Stalin continues
to expand his Evil Empire. The Reds annex the tiny defenseless Baltic states of
Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia. Stalin also annexes parts of eastern Romania.
The Soviet Union has now invaded 6 countries in just 9 months! Yet, the western
Globalists only remain obsessed with attacking Germany, whose leader, just like the
Kaiser had two decades earlier, continues to plead for peace.

JUNE, 1940

AFTER GERMANY’S DEFEAT OF THE ALLIES, MUSSOLINI’s ITALY JOINS THE WAR

Upon seeing Germany’s stunning victory in 1940, Benito Mussolini, the
opportunistic, ego-driven Leader of Italy, ends Italy’s neutrality and allies himself
with Germany. He declares war upon France (which was already beaten and
occupied) and also upon the UK, (which is already being chased out of Europe at
Dunkirk).
Unlike Hitler’s defensive war, Mussolini dreams of conquest, hoping to restore a new
Roman Empire in North Africa. But his reckless adventures will prove to be very costly to Hitler. In August of ’40, Italy occupies British Somaliland in East Africa. In
September, Italy invades Egypt, which has been occupied by the British since a 1936
Treaty to protect the Suez Canal.
In picking a fight with Britain, Mussolini bites off far more than the unimpressive
Italian military can chew. The superior British land and naval forces dominate their
Italian adversaries, giving Churchill a potential continental opening to invade a now
non-neutral Italy from North Africa.

JUNE 22, 1940

NEW GOVERNMENT OF FRANCE MAKES PEACE WITH HITLER
As the fleeing French government collapses, the Germans enter undefended Paris on
June 14 ‘ 40. The new government is headed by the World War I hero Marshal
Philippe Petain, who agrees to make peace with Germany.
Unlike the brutality of the Versailles Treaty, the terms of this Armistice are very
light, requiring only that Germany continues to occupy northern France as a
defensive measure against a British invasion of the continent. The new French
government has its administrative offices in the southern city of Vichy. Other than
the strategic occupation in the north, France remains a sovereign nation. Life in
occupied France goes on quietly. German soldiers establish an excellent reputation
for good behavior, and charm with the French ladies.
Meanwhile in the UK, Churchill and French General Charles De Gaulle fume over
Marshal Petain’s refusal to continue fighting. Hitler wants Petain to ally his country with Germany, but Mussolini’s war declaration upon France leaves such a bad taste
in the mouths of Frenchmen that they cannot possibly join a German-Italian alliance.

WORLD JEWISH CONGRESS CLAIMS THAT 6 MILLION JEWS ARE DOOMED IF GERMANY WINS THE WAR

Sing it Four Tops! – “It’s the same, old song, with a different …..

Not a single Jew has even been interned and Hitler is still pleading for peace; yet
the “Holocaust” and the “6 million” have already been established!

CHURCHILL LAUNCHES AERIAL BOMBARDMENT CAMPAIGN AGAINST GERMAN CIVILIANS

With British ground troops having been chased off of the European mainland,
Churchill and his London/New York Banking Bosses can only continue the fight over
air (and sea). The British Royal Air Force is ordered to bomb civilian areas.
Churchill hopes to provoke a similar response from Hitler so that he and FDR can
point to “German bombing of civilians.”
In a July memo to the Minister of UK Air Craft production, Churchill writes:
“When I look around to see how we can win the war I see that there is only one sure
path. We have no Continental army which can defeat the German military power..
…there is one thing that will bring him (Hitler) down, and that is an absolutely
devastating, exterminating attack by very heavy bombers from this country upon
the Nazi homeland. We must be able to overwhelm them by this means, without
which I do not see a way through.”

The notorious drunk will bomb German civilian areas seven times. But Hitler refuses to do the same. German bombers are under strict orders to limit their attacks to military/industrial targets only…Finally, in September; Hitler is forced to declare that any more British bombings of civilian areas will be met with a similar response.
When the German Air Force drops its first bombs on British civilian areas, the world
press declares “Germany Bombs Civilians.”
As he had done with the orchestrated sinking of the Lusitania in 1915, Winston
Churchill has again deliberately brought on the deaths of innocent men, women, and
children in order to achieve political goals.

JULY 20, 1940

HITLER DROPS ‘PEACE LEAFLETS’ OVER LONDON!
With Germany in total control of the continent and the war situation, Hitler responds
to Churchill’s bombs by dropping mass quantities of leaflets over London. The 4-
page broadsheet contains an English language summary of Hitler’s recent speech
before the Reichstag. The speech is entitled, “A Last Appeal to Reason”, in which
he closes with a final appeal for peace:
“In this hour I feel it to be my duty before my own conscience to appeal once more
to reason and common sense in Great Britain as much as elsewhere. I consider
myself in a position to make this appeal, since I am not the vanquished, begging
favors, but the victor speaking in the name of reason. I can see no reason why this
war must go on. I am grieved to think of the sacrifices it will claim.
Possibly Mr. Churchill again will brush aside this statement of mine by saying that
it is merely born of fear and of doubt in our final victory. In that case I shall have
relieved my conscience in regard to the things to come.”
The British respond to Hitler’s sincere plea with mockery, threats, and more bombs.

‘AXIS’ NATIONS OF GERMANY, ITALY, & JAPAN SIGN ‘TRI-PARTITE PACT / HOPE TO KEEP THE U.S. OUT OF THE WAR

Germany and Japan are suspicious of FDR’s true intentions. To discourage American
military involvement in either Germany’s war with Britain, or Japan’s unrelated war
with China, the two nations and Italy sign the “Tripartite Pact”.

Japan, Germany, and Italy agree to assist one another with all political, economic and
military means if one of the contracting nations is attacked by a nation at present not
involved in the European War or in the Japanese-Chinese conflict. The hope is that
this pact will keep America out of the war. Ironically, the defense pact will end up
actually facilitating FDR’s scheme to draw America in.

OCTOBER, 1940

UK PROMISES ‘NEW WORLD ORDER’ TO JEWS AFTER WAR
Germany is in total control of the European war situation. As they had during their
losing days of World War I, British politicians reach out to international Jewry for
help. During World War I, Britain’s ‘Balfour Declaration’ promised Palestine to the
Jews in exchange for bringing about U.S. entry. Now, Lord Arthur Greenwood’s
Declaration’ offers them a “New World Order”. Greenwood makes an amazingly
prophetic statement, ‘When we have achieved victory, and we assuredly shall…”
But there is no chance of British victory unless the U.S. can be dragged into the
conflict. Therefore, Greenwood must already suspect that the U.S. will enter the war
(which it does 14 months later). The promise of a ‘New World Order’ is clearly
intended to further encourage American Jewish support for entering the war.
Greenwood promises: “In the rebuilding of civilized society after the war, there
should and will be a real opportunity for Jews everywhere to make a distinctive and
constructive contribution.”
In other words, Lord Greenwood is saying: “Get America in and we’ll give you a say
in Europe’s affairs after the war!” Greenwood’s imperialist ‘dance with the Devil’
will prove fatal. After the war, Britain ends up broke and loses her Empire.

“….Arthur Greenwood member without portfolio in the British War Cabinet
assured the Jews of the United States that when victory was achieved an effort would be made to found a New World Order”

OCTOBER 28, 1940
ITALY INVADES GREECE

Italy had occupied tiny Albania in the spring of 1939. Mussolini now turns his
ambitions towards Greece. Greece has good relations with Germany, but Mussolini
wants to claim the Ionian Islands. Italy’s invasion of Greece is completely unrelated
to Germany’s war and creates unexpected problems for Hitler.
The Greeks repel the invasion. The British then offer to send troops to assist Greece.
Churchill now has an opening on the European mainland from which he can
move north towards Germany and eastward towards Romania and the crucial
oil fields which supply Germany.

AFTER LYING ABOUT HIS INTENTIONS, FDR WINS RE-ELECTION OVER GLOBALIST STRAW-MAN WENDELL WILKIE

Throughout the Election year of 1940, nationalist Republicans warn that FDR is
plotting to bring the US into war. Because the public is strongly opposed to entry in
another war, FDR reassures voters that the “isolationists” are misrepresenting his
intentions. During the campaign, FDR gives his famous “Again and again” speech:
“I say to you mothers and fathers and I shall say it again and again and again.
Your boys will not be sent into any foreign wars.”

The Globalist wing of the GOP (Republican Party) hijacks the nominating process
and puts up an unknown patsy, an “ex-Democrat” named Wendell Willkie to run
against FDR. Many Republicans are shocked when the GOP (supported by the
media’s hype of Willkie) anoints a New York lawyer who has never held any office.
Willkie runs a half-baked campaign and loses badly. FDR is elected to an
unprecedented 3rd (and later a 4th) term. Afterwards, FDR gives Willkie a job as an
Ambassador. In 1943, Willkie publishes a book entitled: One World.

NOVEMBER, 1940

THE VATICAN PRESENTS HITLER’S PEACE PROPOSALS TO BRITISH OFFICIALS

As far back May of 1939, as revealed by the front page of the New York Times, the
Vatican had been trying to mediate between Britain and Germany. Hitler was ready
and willing to talk peace at all times. It was the British who said “no”.
The peace-seeking Vatican and peace-seeking Germany remained in contact as the
war raged. The following excerpt from Martin Allen’s ‘Himmler’s Secret War’
describes a meeting held in Spain between the Papal Nuncio and British officials
Hoare and Hilgarth; and the latest peace offer from Hitler:
“The nature of the concessions that the German Fuhrer was prepared to make in
order to obtain peace with Britain must have astounded the men at the head of SO1.

This was not even a deal worked out through a process of hard negotiation. It was
Hitler’s opening gambit….an offer so generous and pragmatic that it would be very
tempting to anyone who genuinely wanted peace.
His (Hitler’s) offer of such remarkable concessions was an extremely threatening
development. Should the terms become public, it had the potential to render British
resolve to stand firm against German aggression to a shuttering halt.”

FEBRUARY, 1941

GERMANS ARRIVE IN AFRICA TO BAIL OUT THE ITALIANS
The first units of the German ‘AfrikaKorps’ arrive to rescue the collapsing Italian
war effort in February of 1941. General Erwin Rommel, known as the Desert Fox,
commands the German force in North Africa. Rommel will eventually establish the
upper hand in Africa, but this diversion of manpower and resources to Africa proves
to be a costly hindrance for Germany.

MARCH, 1941

U.S. ZIONIST THEODORE KAUFMAN PUBLISHES ‘GERMANY MUST PERISH!’ / CALLS FOR EXTINCTION OF GERMAN RACE!

‘’Germany Must Perish!’ is a 104 page booklet published by an American Zionist
businessman named Theodore Kaufman. Kaufman calls for the complete
extermination of the German people through forced sterilization and total

dismemberment and reapportionment of German territory. The murderous hate-
fest starts out in the very opening lines of Germany Must Perish as follows:

“This dynamic volume outlines a comprehensive plan for the extinction of the
German nation and the total eradication from the earth, of all her people. Also
contained herein is a map illustrating the possible territorial dissection of Germany
and the apportionment of her lands.”
Incredibly, at a time when America is supposedly “neutral”, the hateful book is
actually reviewed by The New York Times, Time Magazine and the Washington Post.
Though not widely distributed in America, Germany Must Perish is read throughout
Germany. Propaganda Minister Dr. Josef Goebbels states: “Thanks to the Jew
Kaufmann, we Germans know only too well what to expect in case of defeat.”
‘Germany Must Perish!’ will inspire the frightened German people to fight harder.
Kaufman’s work, along with the deadly Jewish Partisan guerilla warfare against
German troops, will contribute to Hitler’s decision to intern the Jews of occupied
Europe into wartime work camps later in 1941.

FDR SIGNS ‘LEND – LEASE’ INTO LAW / UK TO BE SUPPLIED WITH U.S. MANUFACTURED ARMS

Britain is running short of arms and supplies as Germany continues to offer peace on
terms favorable to Britain. Churchill will not listen to reason because, behind the
scenes, FDR is reassuring him that the U.S. will support the UK at all costs. With
his successful re-election campaign of 1940 out of the way, FDR now becomes even
bolder in confronting the anti-war “isolationists”.
The Lend-Lease program places the awesome industrial might of the US at the
disposal of the UK, China, and later on, the USSR. America is to be “the Arsenal of
Democracy” says FDR. Britain will eventually receive $31 Billion worth of war
supplies (about $500 Billion at 2012 prices!)

APRIL 6, 1941

GERMANY BLOCKS BRITISH & SOVIET SCHEMES IN SOUTHERN EUROPE BY INVADING GREECE & YUGOSLAVIA
Though unrelated to Germany’s war, Mussolini’s foolish adventure in Greece has
already created a big problem for Hitler. As Italian forces meet stiff Greek resistance,
Churchill uses the conflict as an opportunity to again establish armies on Europe’s
mainland, in Europe’s “soft underbelly”. British troops begin arriving in Greece to help the Greeks in their fight against the Italians. Hitler offers to mediate peace between Italy and Greece, but the Greeks (egged on by the British) won’t come to the table as more British troops keep arriving.
In March, 1941, Yugoslavia joins Hitler’s defensive Tripartite Pact. In response,
British intelligence immediately triggers an orchestrated coup. The new
Yugoslavian regime is now a British puppet state, which immediately signs a “Treaty
of Friendship” with the USSR. Stalin’s Yugoslavian Communists take to the streets in
support of the new government.
Again, Hitler’s hand is forced. If he does not act now, the “soft underbelly” of Europe
will be flooded with British troops destined for southern Germany, as well as the
Romanian oil fields upon which Germany depends. On April 6, ’41, the Germans
invade both Greece and Yugoslavia. The still small numbers of British troops are
forced to evacuate, spoiling Churchill’s scheme to inflame southern Europe and invite
the Soviets in to help. Naturally, the Globalist media simplistically portrays these
events as: “Germans Invade Yugoslavia & Greece”.

MAY 10, 1941

RUDOLF HESS PARACHUTES INTO SCOTLAND WITH YET ANOTHER OFFER OF PEACE!

Rudolf Hess is Germany’s Number 2 in command and a close friend of Hitler. Recall
that it was Hess who typed out the dictation for Hitler’s Mein Kampf. In May of 1941,
Hess (who is fluent in English) flies a solo mission over Scotland and parachutes in,
carrying an offer of peace. He is hoping to link up with the Duke of Hamilton, who he had befriended at the 1936 Berlin Olympics, and convince his British acquaintance
of Germany’s sincere desire for peace. But he is arrested instead.
On Churchill’s orders, Hess is held in solitary confinement for the duration of
the war. After the war, Hess is “tried” at Nuremberg and then sentenced to life in
East Berlin’s Spandau prison. With the liberalization of the USSR in the 1980’s, there
is talk of finally releasing him. But he is said to have committed suicide in his cell in 1987.

His family believes that the 93-year-old Hess was murdered so that the details
of his peace mission would remain buried forever.

MAY – JULY, 1941

FDR ESCALATES HIS PROVOKATION OF GERMANY & JAPAN
Long before the German-Polish conflict, FDR had waged a silent war against
Germany. With Germany now in control of the European situation, FDR is even more
desperate to drag America into Britain’s war. He relentlessly baits Hitler.
To that end, the U.S. impounds German ships, sinks German subs, freezes German,
Italian, and Japanese financial assets, assists the British Navy in spotting and sinking
The Bismarck (killing 2200 German sailors), and ships large amounts of arms to
Britain. Hitler bears the humiliating provocations quietly; knowing that US entry
into the war would be disastrous for Germany.
Realizing that Hitler will not take his bait, FDR further instigates the Japanese. Recall
that the Axis Powers, (Germany, Japan, and Italy) are parties to a mutual defense
pact (Tripartite Pact). An attack on one means war with all. FDR will turn the
Tripartite Pact to his advantage.

JUNE 22, 1941

‘OPERATION BARBAROSSA’ / HITLER THWARTS STALIN’S PLAN TO CONQUER ALL OF EUROPE

As Germany and Britain exhaust each other in the air, at sea, and now North Africa,
Stalin quietly gathers his massive Red Army along Germany’s eastern frontier, near
the Romanian oil fields that supply Germany. Hitler knows that Stalin cannot be
trusted. He recalls how Stalin broke a non-aggression pact and pounced on Poland
while the Poles were pre-occupied with Germany. Another non-aggression pact was
broken when Stalin attacked Finland. Soviet invasions of the Baltic States and eastern
Romania, along with a recent Communist-backed coup in Yugoslavia all combine to
offer still more proof that Stalin is up to something.
Now, with Germany and Britain distracted, Stalin threatens all of Europe. Hitler had
hoped to remove the Soviet threat in April, but invasion plans were delayed by
Mussolini’s misadventures in Africa and Greece. When “Operation Barbarossa” is
launched, the Red Army is caught flat-footed and bunched up in offensive positions.
Millions of Soviet troops are taken prisoner, and the devastating loss of weaponry and
equipment leaves the Red Army neutralized.
Up to 65% of all Soviet tanks, field guns, .machine guns, and anti-tank guns are
either destroyed or captured. The Germans rout the Reds all the way back to the gates
of Moscow, liberating many cheering Ukrainian, Baltic, and even Russian people
along the way. It is only the onset of the brutal Russian winter that forces the
Germans to pause their stunning offensive. The 2 month delay due to Mussolini’s
folly in Greece may have saved Stalin’s regime from a total collapse in 1941.

“Already in 1940 it became increasingly clear from month to month that the plans of the men in the Kremlin were aimed at the domination, and thus the destruction, of all of Europe. I have
already told the nation of the build-up of Soviet military power in the East during a period when Germany had only a few divisions in the provinces bordering Soviet Russia. Only a blind person
could fail to see that a military build-up of world-historical dimensions was being carried out. And this was not in order to protect something that was being threatened, but rather to attack that which seemed incapable of defense….. I may say this today: .If the wave of more than 20,000 tanks, hundreds of divisions, tens of thousands of artillery pieces, along with more than
10,000 airplanes, had not been kept from being set into motion against the Reich, all of Europe would have been lost.”

– Adolf Hitler, 12-11-1941

JUNE, 1941

FDR RESCUES STALIN / EXTENDS MASSIVE MILITARY AID
With Stalin’s Evil Empire facing extinction at the hands of German forces, FDR
moves quickly to rescue the murderous regime. He unfreezes Soviet assets that had
been frozen after Stalin’s attack on Finland in 1939, enabling the Soviets to
immediately purchase 59 Fighter aircraft. The “Arsenal of Democracy” is now, “The
Arsenal of Communism.”
By 1945, the staggering amount of Lend-Lease deliveries to Stalin include 11,000
aircraft, 4,000 bombers, 400,000 trucks, 12,000 tanks and combat vehicles, 32,000
motorcycles, 13,000 locomotives and railway cars, 8,000 anti-aircraft cannons,
135.000 sub-machine guns, 300,000 tons of explosives, 40,000 field radios, 400 radar
systems, 400,000 metal cutting machine tools, several million tons of food, steel,
other metals, oil and gasoline, chemicals etc. Without this ENORMOUS
INFUSION of American aid, the Germans would probably have finished off
Stalin after the spring thaw of 1942.

JUNE 29, 1941

STALIN ORDERS ‘PARTISAN’ GUERRILLA WAR UPON GERMAN WEHRMARCHT (ARMY) / JEWISH PARTISANS ALSO FORM

Stalin calls upon Party, Soviet, & Trade Union organizations to form “partisan
divisions and diversion groups to pursue and destroy the invaders in a merciless struggle”.

In violation of commonly accepted rules of warfare, many Partisans neither wear uniforms, nor recognize international law. To grow the ranks of the Red Partisans, and prevent the Germans from winning over the civilian population, Soviet commandoes dress up in German uniforms and carry out “false-flag” atrocities against their own people, inciting hatred against the Germans.
Communist and Jewish Partisans, aided by the OSS (forerunner to CIA), also form in other nations, using the same false-flag tactics, and menacing the safety of German
troops unable to tell enemy from civilian.
Massive Jewish support for and participation in non- uniformed Partisan
groups, including women & children, is the main reason for Hitler’s decision to
intern Europe’s Jews in work camps as a wartime security precaution.

THE SAD FATE OF THE VOLGA GERMANS

The Volga Germans are ethnic Germans living along the River Volga in
southeastern Russia. Recruited as immigrants to Russia in the 18th century, they had
always been allowed to maintain their German culture, language, and traditions.

After the German invasion in 1941, the Soviets consider the Volga Germans as
potential collaborators. On August 28, 1941, Stalin dissolves the Volga-German
Republic and orders the immediate relocation of ethnic Germans. About 400,000
Volga Germans are stripped of their land and houses; and transported eastward to
Soviet Central Asia, and Siberia. By 1942, nearly all the able-bodied German
population will have been conscripted to the NKVD slave-labor columns. At least
one-third will not survive the camps.

THE GERMAN SOLDIER’s 10 COMMANDMENTS

The German soldier is the best behaved and honorable soldier of Europe. Every
soldier receives a copy of ‘The German Soldier’s 10 Commandments and is expected
to follow them to the letter or face serious punishment.

While fighting for victory the German soldier will observe the rules of
chivalrous warfare. Cruelties and senseless destruction are below his standard.
Combatants will be in uniform or will wear specially introduced and clearly
distinguishable badges. Fighting in plain clothes or without such badges is
prohibited.
No enemy who has surrendered will be killed, including partisans and spies.
They will be duly punished by courts.
P.O.W. will not be ill-treated or insulted. While arms, maps, and records are to
be taken away from them, their personal belongings will not be touched.
Dum-Dum bullets are prohibited; also no other bullets may be transformed into
Dum-Dum.
Red Cross Institutions are sacrosanct. Injured enemies are to be treated in a
humane way. Medical personnel and army chaplains may not be hindered in
the execution of their medical or clerical activities.

The civilian population is sacrosanct. Neither looting nor wanton destruction
is permitted to the soldier. Landmarks of historical value or buildings serving
religious purposes, art, science, or charity are to be especially respected.
Neutral territory will never be entered nor passed over by planes, nor shot at; it
will not be the object of warlike activities of any kind.
If a German soldier is made a prisoner of war he will tell his name and rank if
asked for it. Under no circumstances will he reveal to which unit he belongs,
nor will he give any information about German military, political, and
economic conditions.
Offenses of duty will be punished. Enemy offenses against the principles
under 1 to 8 are to be reported. Reprisals are only permissible on order of
higher commands.
The only exception to these rules of conduct was in dealing with the murderous

Communist Partisans who refuse to recognize rules of warfare. For this reason, non-
uniformed Partisan prisoners who refused to surrender were sometimes hanged or

shot as war criminals, not as legitimate POW’s.

LIFE IN THE GERMAN INTERNMENT CAMPS

Contrary to the popular belief that life in the SS-run internment camps was a brutal
existence of slave labor followed by extermination, the German went to great lengths
to keep the Jewish inmates well-fed, well-housed and even entertained. Officials from
the International Red Cross visited the camps regularly and right up until the end of
the war.

There were orchestras, soccer leagues and activities for children. There were
weddings, Bar Mitzvahs, and even maternity wards for pregnant women. The
Auschwitz camp even had a swimming pool and a general store!
It was only during the final year of the war that conditions began to deteriorate as
typhus epidemics spread and supplies diminished. Because of the contagious nature
of typhus, the corpses were cremated, not buried near groundwater. The destruction
of so much of Germany’s critical infrastructure contributed to the deaths.
Nonetheless, as the camps were liberated, many healthy and seemingly well-fed
‘Holocaust survivors”, as well as some not so healthy, were seen and photographed.

1941

THE WAFFEN SS: VOLUNTEERS FROM ACROSS EUROPE JOIN INTERNATIONAL FORCE UNDER GERMAN COMMAND
Brave men from every nation in Europe (and some from Asia) volunteer to fight the
Soviets. They are welcomed into Germany’s “Waffen SS” – an elite fighting force.
The anti-Communist Waffen SS are motivated by a vision of a greater European
family. For the European SS, the Europe of jealousies, border disputes, and economic
rivalries is petty. They fight for ‘Europa’ itself.
The Waffen SS is a true international army of the European peoples. One million men
fight in the SS, of which, 600,000 are non-German. Officers of the Waffen serve in
the front lines alongside their men. By war’s end, half of the SS commanders will
have been killed in action. During and after the brutal winter of 41-42, it is the
Waffen SS who will stand their ground and delay the massive Soviet counter offensive.

By the end of the war, 40% of the Waffen SS will have been killed or gone
missing. Were it not for the tenacity and sacrifice of the heroic Waffen
volunteers, all of Europe would have been lost to the Soviet hordes. It is not
surprising that to this day, the “SS” is still vilified in the Globalist press.

HITLER’S JEWISH SOLDIERS AND HIS FAVORITE JEWISH DOCTOR

Hitler was not fanatically anti-Jewish as much as he was anti-Marxist, although there
was large overlap between the two groups. As hard as it may be to believe, it is
absolutely true that about 60,000 half-Jewish, and 90,000 quarter-Jewish soldiers

fought for Hitler’s Germany.Among these were decorated soldiers, officers, and
even Generals and Admirals.
As Fuehrer, Hitler personally intervened to assist Dr. Eduard Bloch, the noble Jewish
doctor who had treated his cancer stricken mother. Hitler had never forgotten Dr.
Bloch’s kindness, and inquired about him when he returned to liberated Austria in 1938.

On Hitler’s orders, Bloch was given “special protection”. When interviewed by
the OSS (CIA) towards the end of the war, Bloch spoke very well of the young Hitler
that he had known.

JAPAN APPEALS TO U.S. FOR PEACE TALKS TO END THE WAR WITH CHINA

FDR could easily have mediated an end to the war in Asia; but chose to continue arming the
Chinese.

SEPTEMBER 11, 1941

CHARLES LINDBERGH JR. ACCUSES FDR AND JEWS OF PLOTTING TO DRAG THE U.S. INTO THE WAR

American patriots such as famed aviator Charles Lindbergh Jr. clearly see that FDR is
plotting to involve America in the war. Lindbergh is a leading figure in the “America
First” movement, or what Globalist propaganda cleverly refers to as “isolationism.”
Lindbergh’s speech in Iowa accurately describes what is happening behind the scenes.

He warns:
“The leaders of the British and the Jewish races, for reasons which are as
understandable from their viewpoint as they are inadvisable from ours, for reasons
which are not American, wish to involve us in this war.”
Joseph Kennedy, the US Ambassador to England and Patriarch of the Kennedy
Family Dynasty, also expressed this opinion, though not publicly.

OCTOBER – NOVEMBER, 1941

FDR REPEATEDLY AND DELIBERATELY BAITS JAPAN
In the closing months of 1941, FDR’s provocations of Japan escalate to the level of
“acts of war”. FDR imposes devastating oil and trade embargoes on Japan, denies her
ships access to the neutral Panama Canal, and orders U.S. battleships to undertake
“pop up” cruises through Japanese territorial waters.

Finally, on November 26th of ’41, FDR sends an impossible ultimatum to Japan,
implying a military threat, and demanding that Japan withdraw all of its troops from
China and Indochina as a pre-condition for lifting the oil embargo.
The day before the hostile letter was sent, Secretary of War Henry Stimson recorded,
in his personal diary, the topic of a meeting with FDR as follows: “The question was
how we should maneuver them (Japan) into the position of firing the first shot.”

Mussolini’s Secret: Did “Il Duce” Betray Hitler?

When assessing Italy’s role in World War II, fake historians and real historians both agree on one thing: the adventures of Benito Mussolini cost Germany dearly. We’ll review the blunders and how they weighed on Germany shortly; but first, a piece of data which we just recently discovered at establishmentarian ForeignPolicy.com. The item, dated October 14, 2009, was titled Benito Mussolini: British Secret Agent. An excerpt:

“It is fall 1917 in Italy. World War I rages; in late October the German army gasses the Italians to defeat in the Battle of Caporetto. Hyperinflation and food shortages cripple the economy, and suddenly a large number of Italians don’t see the point of fighting anymore. At the same time, Lenin and the Bolsheviks seize St. Petersburg and the allies see that soon they will lose a key partner in the war. …. no more Russian-British alliance. And now Britain is looking at losing another ally, Italy.

Enter Sir Samuel Hoare, the man in Rome for British counter-intelligence. He is charged with keeping the Italian front fighting, and he quickly finds an ambitious newspaper editor to help him with the task, Benito Mussolini. This is the story Cambridge historian Peter Martland tells after uncovering documents proving the relationship.

Yes, MI5 paid Il Duce *£100 a week to keep the fighting spirit alive and well in Italy.

*Editor’s Note: Mamma Mia! That’s $8,000 weekly in today’s US Dollars, and that’s based on phony inflation numbers. So it’s probably about $20,000 weekly!

He did this through his newspaper as well as through his gang of armed thugs who bludgeoned peace protesters into staying home. …. Mussolini, 34 at the time, received the exorbitant salary for at least a year, according to Martland.

“I suspect that Mussolini, who was a noted womanizer, also spent a good deal of the money on his mistresses,” Martland said.

After Mussolini’s brief stint as a British agent, he rose to power and became the dictator of Italy. He met Hoare again when the two signed the Hoare-Laval pact that gave Italy control of present-day Ethiopia and Eritrea.” (emphasis added)

* Editor’s Note: The British government soon withdrew the plan, and Hoare resigned. In early 1936 Italy began a new, larger advance into Ethiopia, using poison gas. In his memoirs, Hoare noted the killing of the Hoare–Laval Pact, pushed Italy closer to Germany.

So then, the post-World War I rise and rise of the young, ambitious Mussolini from womanizing 34-year-old newspaper editor working for British war aims, to appointed Prime Minister at age 39, to supreme dictator dubbed “Il Duce” (1925) at just 42, was “made in London.” Interesting, and frankly, borderline treasonous because it means that he worked to keep Italy in the war for Britain’s interests, even if he himself somehow believed he was acting in Italy’s. And what’s really astonishing is that this bit of data was not unearthed until 2009, only 3 years before your favorite historian here (who knew nothing about this until now!) had penned the first draft manuscript of The Bad War, in which Mussolini’s costly misadventures in WW 2 were reviewed.

Now, let’s fast forward to World War II and review how Mussolini’s blunders severely hindered Hitler’s war efforts and may have cost Germany an opportunity to win the war in 1941 or 1942, before the Soviets (with massive US weapons aid) could regroup and rebuild, and before the Americans could arrive and deploy to save the day for the ALL LIES.

TIMELINE OF KEY EVENTS

May 1940: Neutral Italy, via its Ambassador to the UK, offers to broker a peace deal between Germany and the UK. Some in the British War Cabinet are interested in hearing a proposal. But Churchill, who surely must know that Mussolini had been made by British Intel, will have none of it.

June 5 – June 8, 1940: The Germans have already completed the heavy lifting of winning the land-based war in the West. The retreating British are high-tailing it out of Europe from Dunkirk. And France, much to Churchill’s consternation, is poised to negotiate a surrender as Marshal Phillipe Petain prepares to take power in France.

June 10, 1940: After having remained neutral, and just weeks after cordially dealing with the British, Mussolini — acting on his own initiative and independent of the German campaign — declares war on France and Great Britain. This stab-in-the-back invasion at the Alps (which pissed away the lives of 1,000 Italian soldiers just to conquer 13 small villages!) causes tremendous resentment among the already-defeated French. North Africa now opens up as a theater of war as Italy and Britain both have a presence there (as does defeated France).

July 3, 1940: The British attack the French naval base at Mers El Kébir — killing 1,300 French sailors and damaging / destroying 3 battleships and 2 destroyers. Churchill then claims that the pretext for this dastardly deed was to stop the victorious Germans from seizing the vessels of French navy.

Summer, 1940: The Italians struggle against the superior British in North Africa. Mussolini appeals to Hitler for help and that’s how Germany’s costly involvement with the Africa Korps under the leadership of Erwin Rommel began in 1941.

* Editor’s Note: In the alternative news & history community, Hitler is often criticized for having graciously allowed 300,000 British troops to safely evacuate from the shores of Dunkirk. The Germans would later have to fight these very same men in North Africa. In Hitler’s defense, he had no way of knowing that Mussolini, just one week after the end of the Dunkirk boat-lift, would suddenly and dishonorably abandon his neutrality and declare war against the already defeatedAllies — and then proceed to make such a mess in North Africa.

October, 1940: Against Hitler’s wishes, Mussolini, having already inflamed Africa and now occupying Albania, invades Greece in what will bog down into an even more disastrous military campaign. Mussolini’s war will cost the Italians 14,000 killed and 25,000 missing. In his private diary, one of his own generals recorded his disgust with Il Duce’s recklessness (here). Churchill uses this event as a pretext to offer military assistance to the Greeks — which would entail a renewed British presence on the European mainland via “the soft underbelly of Europe.”

* Editor’s Note: Mussolini had been wrongly informed that bribes paid to key Greek politicians and generals to not resist the Italian invasion would be enough to assure an easy conquest. Was British Intel feeding him the same “cakewalk” lie fled to aggressor Poland in 1939?

April, 1941: To block the British from setting up military action in Europe, Hitler — who had earlier sought to mediate a peace between Italy and Greece — has no choice but to bailout his Italian “ally” (again) and thus thwart the British advance by subduing Greece. As is the ongoing case in North Africa, valuable manpower and resources are thus diverted and valuable time is lost because Hitler’s preemptive invasion of the Soviet Union has to be postponed by two months. The lost months could have been enough to finish off the Soviet Union in 1941, before the winter pause arrived.

* Editor’s Note: The Germans were also forced to invade Yugoslavia at this time because British Intel had engineered a coup which installed an anti-German government.

June 22, 1941: Having lost two months and being spread thin in North Africa and southern Europe, Hitler launches the necessary invasion of the Soviet Union just in the nick of time. Operation Barbarossa is a stunning success for the Germans, but the lost time and resources enabled Stalin to barely hang on until the brutal winter of 1941 set in and stalled the advance. That allowed the Soviets to regroup and, with US help, rearm in 1942. Oh what have been had the Germans not lost all that time and all that firepower in 1941!

November, 1942: The Joint American & British Operation Torch launches in November 1942. Stalin now has the “Second Front” that he had been openly pleading for to relieve pressure on the Red Army by diverting German forces to North Africa. After a slow start by the allies, General George Patton is brought in to win North Africa. Now the Germans really have problems! Half the German transport planes that were needed to supply the encircled Axis forces at Stalingrad will eventually be tied up supplying the German and Italian armies in North Africa. And it was all because Mussolini picked a fight he couldn’t win against Britain in Africa.

Summer, 1943: After winning Africa, it was a short hop to Sicily and then onto the Italian mainland for the ALL LIES. It was through Italy, not Normandy (1944), that the Allies will establish their first true presence on the European mainland — through which they began tightening the noose on Germany from the South (and later, the West) — all while diverting German power away from the Russian front. Again, none of this happens if Mussolini had not declared war on France & Britain AFTER Germany had already secured Western Europe.

**************
No doubt about it, Italian debacles in Africa and Greece came at a heavy cost for Germany to fix. In addition to the damage caused to the German war effort overtly, certain events that might have happened didn’t happen because of Mussolini. By abandoning Italy’s neutrality and attaching himself to Hitler’s hip the way he did, it made it politically impossible for Petain’s France (which was really done dirty by Mussolini) to join Germany in protecting Northern Europe from Allied invasion. Whatever French resentment the anti-communist French had toward Britain for its treacherous attack at Mers El Kébir, was offset by Italy’s stab-in-the-back just one month earlier. Hitler’s idea of rallying the North Africans and Arabs against the British colonialists could have worked as well, but not with poison gas man of Ethiopia attached to him. Oh what might have been if not for blundering Benito!

The disillusioning (for me) 2009 discovery of Mussolini having served as a paid agent of the British during World War I not only tells us A LOT about his ambition and his flawed character; but it leads us to this very logical and rational question: With this bit of dirt hanging over his head — this old skeleton hiding in his closet — might British Intelligence — partly with a carrot and partly with a stick — have reactivated the ambitious egoist which they made into “Il Duce?” Following is a plausible THEORY — for which there is no hard evidence (at this time) but for which proof may surface from the bowels of some dusty archive one day — just like the amazing find of 2009.

**********************
Hitler controls the continent and the British are worried that Germany may invade their island if they refuse to make peace. Mussolini, through his ambassador to the UK, conveys a peace offer from Hitler, which Churchill will kill. The British then reactivate their old asset.

The Island of Britain needs a land presence somewhere in order to confront the Germans directly, and, more importantly, secure a staging ground for the inevitable entry of the United States into the war, and an invasion into the southern “soft underbelly of Europe.” To that end, the ego-maniac Mussolini (who was always jealous of Hitler and talked behind his back) is once again bought — not with money this time — but with the promise an expanded African Empire (paired with a disclosure of the bribes he accepted during World War I!).

This is very similar to how Tsarist Russia was induced into the pre-WWI British-French Alliance in 1907 — with the secretive empty promise of Constantinople (Istanbul) being returned to eastern Christendom’s control….or, more recently, how the mad Marshal Edvard Rydz Smigly of expansionist-minded Poland was manipulated into picking a fight with Germany in 1939. Standard British foreign policy for centuries!

The British know that a stab-in-the-back of France by Mussolini will make a French-German alliance impossible. His opening of hostilities against Britain in Africa is a fake war with real casualties on both sides; but what would the lives of enlisted men ever mean to men like Churchill and Mussolini anyway? They die for the cause of Italian Empire. The trap works and the Germans are drawn into the quicksand of Africa.

An Italian invasion of Greece is also needed to provide a pretext for diverting more German resources and manpower there; and to finally give the British a Europe-based land opening. “Benny, our dear old friend. Thanks for your help in Africa. As a show of our appreciation, we’ll let you take Greece and control the Mediterranean Sea. Our sources us tell us that the pathetic Greeks won’t even put up a fight, as long as you bribe them. You’ll be the second coming of Julius Caeser!” Mussolini — who is expecting a “cakewalk” in Greece (as Rydz Smigly had been led to believe with respect to attacking Germany in 1939) takes the bait and reaps the whirlwind.

And what about the subsequent British crippling of the Italian fleet at Taranto, later that same year; and the savage Allied bombardment and invasion of Italy; and the eventual toppling (July 1943); and brutal “dead-men-tell-no-tales” killing (1945) of Mussolini and his mistress by Allied-controlled “partisans?” Well, that’s the same type of “double cross” that the Brits did to the Tsar after they reneged on taking Constantinople; and the same “double cross” that they did to Rydz Smigly when they refused to help after he was tricked into starting the war in 1939, and then invaded by Germany from the West and the Soviet Union from the east. Standard British foreign policy — and there wasn’t a darn thing the already compromised fool could ever have done about it. British Intel had their ambitious ex-Italian newspaper man by “i cuglione” (the balls) all along.

**********************
Far fetched? Before learning that newspaper man Mussolini accepted BIG MONEY from British Intel to propagandize his war weary countrymen into remaining immersed in the WW1 bloodbath (1.1 million dead Italians, military & civilian), I would probably not have entertained this idea. But in light of this new data, anything is possible. Legendary historian Edward Gibbon taught us: “History is indeed little more than the register of the crimes, follies and misfortunes of mankind.” — And indeed it is. In any event, both for his acceptance of British bribes and his stupendous “blundering” in World War II — we can no longer honor Il Duce, in spite of his anti-communism and other laudable domestic achievements.

Oh if only I could get unlimited access to the secret archives of British Intel!

To what lengths would “Caesar” Mussolini have gone to restore “the glory of the Roman Empire?” Could he have betrayed the honorable (to a fault) Hitler — who he was privately jealous of? Men of such ego and ambition can be easy pickings for the British and their Jewish senior partners.

Fake ‘Global Warming’ Agenda: Multiple Fires In Greece Linked To Arson, A Dozen Suspects Arrested

The fires that are currently raging in Greece, just like the ones in Australia from last year, have been set by arsonists, on a large scale. In Australia, at least 200 people have been arrested for deliberately starting the bushfires. In Greece, around a dozen suspected arsonists have been apprehended so far. But the media has conveniently ignored the truth, and instead pushed a fake narrative that advances the Green Agenda. multiple fires in greece linked to arson, a dozen suspects arrested

Last year’s fires in Oregon have also been set by arsonists.

In California, there is solid evidence from weather radars, of non-conventional weapons being used to start the fires. Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) has also pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter for sparking the state’s deadliest wildfire.

The media is largely ignoring all of the above, and is instead focusing on the lie that the fires are caused by manmade Global Warming, which has been disproved time and again by actual climate scientists.

The reason for pushing the lie of manmade Global Warming on this scale, is to prepare the world for the post-COVID Lockdowns, which will be linked to the Climate Agenda (of depopulation).

Multiple Fires In Greece Linked To Arson, Suspects Arrested

by Thomas Kissel

Multiple people have been linked to arson across Greece, as fires rage through nearly every region of the country. Two people were arrested in Agios Stefanos, where fires are still currently spreading. The suspects were apprehended by the bridge of Agios Stefanos on Athinaias Street with a can of gasoline.

The suspects were unable to offer an explanation for why they had the gasoline and were escorted to the State Security. One suspected attempted to convince the authorities he was a volunteer firefighter.

Before this incident a man was arrested in Kalamata for intentional and continuous arson. His case will be brought to the prosecutor on Saturday.

A 60-year-old man has been arrested in Fokida on similar charges.

Authorities have also detained a suspect in Ilia who is currently undergoing interrogation from the fire brigade.

Arson Is Taking Place Across Greece

A woman attempted arson in the Pedion tou Areos neighborhood of Athens twice this afternoon. The woman was arrested and is currently being interrogated by the Kypseli Police Department.

Giorgios Patoulis, the current prefect of the Attica region, addressed the arson attempts in Athens, saying that:

“It is particularly worrying that an attempt was made to set fire to the heart of Athens, in our park. We must all be vigilant and report any suspicious activity. I warmly thank the executives of the fire brigade and the Attica Region who intervened immediately. The fire was brought under control before it spread.”

The attempted arson was witnessed by Elias Marosoulis, the owner of the Alsos theater located in Pedion tou Areos. Marosoulis, speaking to protothema.gr, said that the arsonist threw a towel soaked in gasoline into the entrance of the Aliki theater. Maosoulis acted fast with other witnesses to subdue the fire before firefighters arrived, who then completely extinguished the fire.

One Twitter user posted an image of the suspect from Pedion tou Areos as she was apprehended on August 7:

In Theologos, where five attempts of arson have been made in the past few days, mayor Thanassis Zekentes said in a statement that:

“It will last for days because [Theologos] is a place with a dense pine forest and unfortunately there are not enough Fire Brigade forces since they are scattered in so many other areas.”

Deputy Regional Governor of Ilia Vassilis Giannopoulos believes that various fire fronts in the region are the product of a deliberate arson plan.

Social media users across the country have been documenting the arson attempts, and posting about being watchful of certain people acting strangely in their areas. Some users claim to have witnessed the arson attempts after noticing suspicious activity with fires immediately following.

Short throwback to the fires of 2018, when Yahoo! News reported:

Greek authorities say they have “serious indications” a wildfire near Athens that killed at least 82 people was set deliberately.

Public Order Minister Nikos Toskas said satellite image analysis and ground inspections suggest the fire that broke out in multiple places in a short time frame Monday likely resulted from arson.

Greek Prosecutor Calls For Investigation Into Organized Arson Plot

by Patricia Claus

Yesterday [August, 9], the prosecutor of Greece’s Supreme Court, Vassilios I. Pliotas, called for an investigation into a possible organized arson plot on the part of a criminal organization after fires ravaged the country for the past week.

The Supreme Court prosecutor referred to “deliberate organized criminal activity” that may have been behind the fires which torched several regions of Greece in the past days.

Pliotas, stated there were “reasonable suspicions of deliberate organized criminal activity and not only of a simple, accidental phenomenon of coincidence of incidents of negligent behavior.”

He went on to state that “the criminal procedural arsenal (removal of telephone secrecy, conduct of investigations, special investigative acts, etc.) must be activated in all its scope in order to control and utilize any useful relevant information” as part of the investigation.

The order of the prosecutor of the Supreme Court reads as follows:

“The excessive number of fires, of unusual intensity and extent, that have occurred in recent days, resulting in incalculable damage to the natural environment (especially the forest resources of the country), buildings, facilities, agricultural land and crops and tourist Infrastructures, even endangering the lives of a large number of our fellow human beings, as well as the “synchronization” in their manifestation, create reasonable suspicions of deliberate organized criminal activity and not only of a simple, accidental phenomenon of incidents of negligent behavior.

“Following this, we ask, in the context of the ex-officio preliminary investigation according to article 245 par. Directorate for the Prevention of Arson Crimes of the Police, to gather all the critical data that provide indications for the existence of an organized plan and central planning for a single action of arson-members of a criminal organization, i.e., for committing the crime of article 187 par. 1 and 2 of the Penal Code: inclusion and management of a criminal organization that seeks to commit crimes of arson in forests and common crimes of arson (articles 264 par. 1 and 265 par. 1 item b, c of the Penal Code).

“It goes without saying that the criminal procedural arsenal (removal of telephone secrecy, conduct, investigations, special investigative acts, etc.) must be activated in its entirety in order to control and utilize all relevant relevant information. For the progress of the preliminary investigation during the formation of the relevant criminal case, the Supervising Prosecutor of Appeals will inform the competent Deputy Prosecutor of the Supreme Court Mr. Lambros Sofoulakis.

“The Prosecutor of the Supreme Court, Vassilios I. Pliotas.”

The police needs to focus on discovering the link between all these arsonists, and the people or organisations that finance them to start the fires.
