Bible Believers' Newsletter 1304
"We focus on the present Truth – what Jesus is doing now. . ."
ISSN 1442-8660
Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we are pleased you could join us in fellowship around God's unchanging Word which is unfolding His foreknowledge and disclosing Satan's hidden secrets in real time since "the mystery of God is finished" (Revelation 10:7).
We are trying to open a very important revelation, please pay attention to the Message which we will further unfold in the next Newsletter. We live in different lands under different circumstances; none of us is created equal but Subscribers and Readers truly baptized into Christ as new-born lambs yet sovereign individuals possess equal eternal Life of One Spirit in the unity of the faith. Jesus said, "I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. If you had known Me you should have known My Father also, for I and My Father are One. By this revelation we are at one, not strangers to the present Truth of the Logos" (John 14:6-7; 10:30; II Peter 1:12). This is "the common faith" of Christ's Wife: His end-time Bride. While we may each hold a different measure of revelation, faith grows by fellowship. "Friendly discussion stimulates faith as the sparks fly upwards when Iron strikes iron" (Proverbs 27:17).
Faith is revelation, a clear understanding of the mind of God which is His unchanging Word. His promises unfold in their declared season and time and His Spirit alerts us to the significance of current news and history past, exposing hidden agendas for "God set enmity between the lineage of Cain and the First and last Adam" (Genesis 3:15; 4:9-16; Matthew 23:29-36; John 8:37-44). Therefore our Subscribers and Readers must seriously study the natural and Spiritual import in our Newsletters, proving all things including the spoken Words of Brother Branham and the preceding prophets by two or three witnesses in written Scripture to ensure we understand what they meant rather than what they said "for the letter without the Spirit brings death whereas the Spirit brings Life and Peace" (II Corinthians 3:6-11).
We have seen how the Jew Adolf Eichmann's Ha'avara Agreement enabled approximately 20% of non-Semitic Khazar Jews to emigrate to Palestine, Russia, Poland, the UK, USA and elsewhere during World War II—safe from non-existent gas chambers. Betrayed by his friends he was kidnapped from Argentina and transported to Israel for propaganda purposes by the Mossad whose motto is "By way of Deception Thou shalt Do War." There his thankless compatriots saw him hanged to support their World War II lies against Germany while they settled in the USA, Russia or Palestine (where they have no history). Proper judicial standards were ignored and the appalling search for truth was impeded rather than advanced by the court. Few are aware that in such show trials eyewitnesses are not allowed to be cross-examined by the defense, nor are they subject to enforcement of the perjury oath (left, Bergen Belsen crematorium in April, 1945).
The Holocaust (so-called) was not announced until the Eichmann Trial in 1961. Non-Semitic Khazar Jews claimed that Germany terminated six million Jews in make-believe gas chambers during World War II. According to statistics published by The World Almanac, Jewish and other authorities, from 1933 until 1949, each single volume of the yearly edition invariably estimates 15,000,000 to 18,600,000 Jewish persons worldwide. In 1950 four million disappeared but reappeared in 1951 and disappeared again in 1955. The figures include all Jews whether members of a synagogue or not. Jewry claimed their Jew-ruled Soviet Union killed six million Jews when they murdered their Tsar, his family and sixty million nominal Christians. Their claim that Germany operated mobile gas chambers in World War I to terminate six million Jews is also untrue.
From 1890 Jewry promised an extermination of six million Jews. This has not occurred, however Jewish hatred saw perhaps as many as fifteen million German and Russian DP's (displaced persons) killed under German-hating General Eisenhower after World War II.
Following the fall of the Soviet Union, President Mikhail Gorbachev gave US Senator Elizabeth Dole the official German Auschwitz death records. They show that during the five year period 74,000 people died of which 30,000 were Jews. This camp was actually a large industrial city which in war time does not make such a figure unusually high! The Germans are meticulous record keepers. They carefully listed the causes of death of each inmate. A few were executed for camp crimes but most died of disease or simply old age! Others perished from starvation, lack of water, typhus, tuberculosis, typhoid fever and dysentery owing to Anglo-American bombing of supply lines. Regardless, the overall figure of 6 million gassed Jews still stands to this day.
Our Main Articles are "The Day of the Lord's Vengeance, and the Year of Recompenses for the Controversy of Zion" and "The Politician" exposing the evils of President Eisenhower. We aim to encourage you not to take the words of men, even vindicated prophets literally but to test the facts and prove their their Message by the mouth of two or three witnesses. The instant the Seventh Trumpet, Sixth Seal and Seventh Vial manifest grace will be over and sinner or saint, we will enter "the end of days." Please read our current news.
This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.Your brother-in-Christ

UK has Criminalized Dissent: Transition of Britain & West into Tyranny
September 19, 2024 — The UK has criminalized dissent. A new Public Order Act makes it illegal to hold a rally or demonstration if it 'inconveniences' anyone. This gives the state unlimited power to clamp down on any demonstration. A new National Security Act makes it illegal to accept funding if it comes from a hostile state (undefined). A new Public Safety Act makes it a criminal offense to publish misinformation (undefined).
Zionist lobbies have great influence on official narratives across the West . . . Anti-terrorism powers are being used to prevent any criticism of Israel. Craig Murray, a former British Ambassador, was arrested at the airport under the 'Terrorism Act' for attending a pro-Palestine demonstration in Iceland . . . if arrested at an airport, you have no right to remain silent, no right to a lawyer, you must turn over all your electronic devices with the passwords.

A Brief History of Booby-Trapping Electronics
September 18, 2024 — Israel's attack that turned pagers belonging to Hezbollah members into explosive devices is not unprecedented. One attack caused pagers to explode across Lebanon and Syria, injuring thousands of people and killing at least 12, including a 9-year-old girl and an 11-year-old boy. A second wave of bombings unfolded on Wednesday, when explosives detonated inside a slew of hand-held radios across the country, leaving nine dead and 300 wounded . . .
Israel, which is widely assumed to be behind both attacks, reportedly booby-trapped pagers used by Hezbollah members, carrying out a similar feat with the hand-held radios. The bombings appear to be supply-chain attacks—meaning the gadgets were tampered with or outright replaced with rigged devices containing explosives and a detonator at some point prior to arriving in the hands of the targets. Hezbollah, which also attributes the exploding electronics to Israel, had reportedly recently switched en masse to using pagers for communications to evade Israeli surveillance . . .

Up to 250,000 Old People will Die of Cold and Hunger in Winter 24/25
September 16, 2024 — Net Zero is a weapon devised to destroy and to enslave. Governments are desperate to kill as many old people as possible and they'll do whatever it takes. Politicians know that when thousands of old people were officially murdered during the fraudulent covid scare, the Government saved billions. Politicians actually boasted about the money that had been saved. Politicians killed old people with the covid fraud, the pointless lockdowns, the murderous midazolam jabs, the stupid, stupid masks and the toxic and entirely useless covid-19 vaccine. They knew all these things were killing old people.
Britain's 13 million pensioners are clearly fair game for a Government which has billions to waste on supplying Ukraine and Israel with arms (including depleted uranium to Ukraine) and which seems to have untold billions to hand out to doctors, civil servants, railway workers and everyone else in the public sector who demands a big wage rise—despite the fact most public servants are still refusing to go to work and sit at home, watch daytime TV and mess around on social media.

US Army Upgrading Israeli Base for New Boeing Jets
September 13 2024 — The construction stems from a nearly $1 billion contract, awarded to defense giant Boeing in 2022, to provide Israel with four KC-46A Pegasus tanker aircraft to be delivered by the end of 2026. The purchase of the KC-46A's was seen to signal Israel's determination to increase its capacity to strike Iran's nuclear facilities . . . (Iran has NO nuclear bases) . . . Last month, the Biden administration approved five major arms sales to Israel, including 50 F-15 fighter aircraft, tank ammunition, tactical vehicles, air-to-air missiles, and 50,000 mortar rounds, among other equipment totaling more than $20 billion.
Since last October, Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip have spawned a humanitarian catastrophe, killed more than 40,000 Palestinians and wounded close to 94,000, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

The Day of the Lord's Vengeance, and the Year of Recompenses for the Controversy of Zion
The Lord has a day of vengeance and a year of retribution for what Edom—foremost among the enemies of Judah—has done to Jerusalem. The negative base of Israel's hope is that his enemies will be destroyed. Isaiah 34 carries us to "the end of days;" he summons the earth and all of its inhabitants to recognize that the final judgment is to return heaven and earth (Heb.) tohu wa-bohu, "without form and void as it was before God prepared the heaven and the earth for habitation" (Genesis 1:1-2, Jeremiah 4:19-31). He represents this as a judgment against Edom, all but 144,000 of global population is Esau/Edom which hates "the people whom the Lord has indignation forever" (Malachi 1:1-5). The negative base of Israel's hope is that its enemies will be destroyed.
Isaiah 34:1-4, "Come near, O nations, to hear; and listen, O peoples! Let the earth and all it contains hear, and the world, and all that springs therefrom. For the indignation of the LORD is upon all nations, and His wrath upon all their armies: He has utterly destroyed them, He has given them over to slaughter. So their slain will be thrown out, and their corpses will give off their stench, and the mountains will be drenched with their blood, and all the host of heaven will rot, and the sky will be rolled up like a scroll: and all their hosts will also wither away, as a leaf withers from the vine, and as a fig falls from the fig tree" (Matthew 24:29; Revelation 6:12-14).
The judgment upon Edom and on all nations is Isaiah's seeing and knowledge in the future. In these first four verses Isaiah was announcing the final global judgment. The other side of the world judgment is the final redemption of Israel. Remember "for fear of the Jews" the ten tribes remain in North Africa—Lebanon, Palestine, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iran and Iraq where they are secure. They will not repatriate the Land of their Covenant until Israel is defeated and we see a mass exodus of non-Semitic Israeli Jews.
Isaiah takes us to the Day of the Lord and the consummation of earth and the heavens. The whole earth is Edom and (Heb.) cherem, an accursed (thing), consecrated, devoted, corban, banned and to be utterly destroyed for the glory of the Lord. It is in process of decomposition, dissolution, rotting, moudering and turning into dust like a festering wound (Psalm 38:6) or rotting flesh, the eyes and tongues rotting in their natural place (Zechariah 14:12). It cannot be redeemed as it is dedicated to destruction for the glory of God. Only 144,000 elect Israelites will be redeemed and martyred (Revelation 14:1 – 15:4).
Isaiah summons all to hear his address, for God's wrath is kindled upon all nations and all that belongs to them and they will all be given up to slaughter, then cast out so that their stench will mount up and mountains will flow with their blood and the host of heaven will be dissolved and the heavens will be rolled together as a scroll, and the heavenly bodies shall fall like dry leaves (Isaiah 13:10-11; 24:19-21; II Peter 3:10-12). Though nature is impersonal nature shares in the judgment and this is only the means to an end of the host of mankind: all is 'cherem' and devoted to slaughter.
Isaiah 34:5-8, "For My sword shall be bathed in heaven: behold, it shall come down upon Edom, and upon the people of My curse, to judgment." Among neighbouring nations Moab, Edom and Ammon were the most detested by Israel; "because the sword of the Word has already become drunken in heaven, it descends to earth. The sword is an instrument of vengeance and the sword drank its blood until it was drunk with fury; the judgment beginning in heaven continues on earth. The Edomites are regarded as a sacrifice, compared to sheep, goats and rams. In consequence of the slaughter earth itself is drunk with blood, and fat with fat. The Lord will thereby satisfy His vengeance, and give Zion justice by righteous recompense." All nations are concerned because Gentile days are over; the world is in the Great Tribulation wherein the Lord is dealing exclusively with one nation of 144,000 elect souls in the Land of their Covenant.
Hebrews 4:7, "Today if you will hear His voice, harden not your hearts".
Isaiah 34:16-17, "Seek from the Book of the Lord, from Genesis to Revelation." But principally the Book of Isaiah's written prophecies (Isaiah 30:8), "and read: because not one of these prophesies will fail, none shall want her mate, for His mouth has commanded THUS SAITH THE LORD" (Isaiah 1:20; 40:5; 58:14), "and His Spirit has gathered them. And He has cast the lot for them" (Isaiah 17:13-14; 13:25). "And His hand has apportioned (the land) for them by line: they shall possess it forever, from generation to generation they shall dwell in it".
Isaiah 35 presents the judgment of the world and the final redemption of Israel in Daniel's Seventieth Week. Deuteronomy 30:3-20 the Lord has promised He "will restore you from captivity, and have compassion on you, and will gather you from all the nations where the Lord your God has scattered you . . . and the Lord your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your seed . . . and put all these curses upon your enemies, and on them which hate you, who persecuted you".
Isaiah 51:11, "Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing unto Zion (Jerusalem); and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away." Isaiah 11:11-16, "And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set His hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people, who remain, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea (Isaiah 42:4, 10, 12; 49:1). And He will lift up an ensign for the nations (Zechariah 14:4; Matthew 24:30-31; Revelation 7:1-8) and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim" . . . (Isaiah 19:23-25; 27:12-13; Jeremiah 3:18; 16:14-21; 23:3; 29:14; 32:37; 46:27; Ezekiel 37:16-17, 22; Hosea 1:11).
The day of the Lord's vengeance (revenge), and the year of recompenses (requital) for the controversy (dispute) of Zion will come upon Esau's kingdom, Edom or Idumea which is predominantly physical Serpent's seed and more numerous that the tribes of Judah and Benjamin. In AD125 Israel's high priest John Hyrcanus I forcibly assimilated with Edom. This was the controversy of Jerusalem: "hereafter Edomites were no other than Jews" (Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews, XIII, 9:1). So the Pharisees who disputed with Jesus in John 8 were Abraham's seed but not Semitic Israelites of Jacob's line because the majority of Judeans were Edomites (Matthew 23:33-36) and Jesus dared not walk openly in Judea "for fear of the Jews" who were not Semitic and their political power saw Israel's Messiah crucified.
According to the 1973 Jewish Encyclopedia and A. N. Poliak, Professor of Medieval Jewish History at Tel Aviv University, the majority of Eastern European Jews are Khazar and (either Serpent's seed or) Japhetic, not Semitic in origin. Immigration statistics indicate approximately 90% of the world's so-called or self-styled 'Jews' living in 42 countries of the world today are immigrants, the children of parents who emigrated from Eastern Europe. (According to The Jewish Encyclopaedia (1905) Vol. XI p 533, 'Probably 95% of persons included in these estimates of Jewish populations are Ashkenazim;' other minorities include Sephardim. The day of salvation for Gentiles in Adam's race is now.
Here is a list of Jewish witnesses that expose the non-Semitic 90%+ Ashkenazim Jews:
Dr. Dan Graur, a world-famous Jewish geneticist who served on the faculty of Tel Aviv University for 22 years and is now at the University of Houston, smiles at the distress of the Zionists. Dr. Elhaik's research is, he said, "very honest." Graur is the recipient of the prestigious Humboldt Award, given to the world's top biological scientist.
In 2001, genetics research by Dr. Ariella Oppenheim of Hebrew University in Tel Aviv produced basically the same results as Dr. Elhaik. Oppenheim's study also found that the Jews' origins are in Khazaria, and that they are of Turkic bloodline. She also reported that some Palestinians have the chromosome in their blood indicating they are Cohanim and Israelite.
In 1867, the great Jewish scholar Abraham Harkavy, in "The Jews and Languages of the Slavs," said the Jewish Yiddish language came from the Khazars, not the Hebrews.
The 1905 Jewish Encyclopedia Vol. XI p 533 stated that 'probably 95% of the persons included in these estimates of Jewish populations are Ashkenazim'.
The Encyclopedia Judaica (1972) records, "Khazars, a national group of general Turkic type, independent and sovereign in Eastern Europe between the seventh and tenth centuries C.E. During part of this time the leading Khazars professed Judaism . . . In spite of the negligible information of an archaeological nature, the presence of Jewish groups and the impact of Jewish ideas in Eastern Europe are considerable during the Middle Ages. Groups have been mentioned as migrating to Central Europe from the East often have been referred to as Khazars, thus making it impossible to overlook the possibility that they originated from with the former Khazar Empire."
In 1976, a prominent Jew named Arthur Koestler published a book called "The Thirteenth Tribe: the Khazar Empire and Its Heritage." He wrote: . . . "Due to persecution in Germany and other countries, they were pressed into migrating to Palestine, which became the modern state of Israel. The large majority of Jews after World War II in the world, were of Eastern origin—and thus perhaps mainly of Khazar origin. If so, this would mean that their ancestors came not from the Jordan, but from the Volga; not from the Canaan but from the Caucusus, once believed to be the cradle of the Aryan race. Genetically, they are more closely related to the Hun, Uigur and Magyar tribes than to the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Should this turn out to be the case, then the term anti-Semitic would be VOID OF MEANING, based on a MISAPPREHENSION shared by both killers and victims. The story of the Khazar Empire, as it slowly emerges from the past, begins to look like the most cruel HOAX which history has ever perpetrated."
Rabbinical Torah Jews protest the Zionist state of Israel and say that is illegitimate in the eyes of God and that it DOES NOT represent Jews or Judaism. They believe that the Ashkenazi Jews have illegitimately seized the name "Israel" and have no right to speak in the name of the Jewish people!
So how can there be millions of people called Jews in a state called Israel? Let's start with the understanding that a person can convert to the religion of Judaism and call themselves a 'Jew,' even though they're not an actual descendent of Abraham. With that in mind, you will be shocked to learn that the newest DNA research science from Dr. Eran Elhaik and associates at the McKusick-Nathans Institute of Genetic Medicine, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, have confirmed that:
97% of the world's 17 million Jews ARE NOT descendants of Abraham. And of the 3% that are no more than 144,000 living in the Land of the Covenant will be elect blood Israelites. Any Jew or Israelite living outside the Promised Land is apostate and WITHOUT the Covenant).
The various groups of Jews in the world today DO NOT share a common genetic origin, and their genome is largely Khazar. Today they are called Ashkenazi Jews, but they are a Jew by religion, not by blood. Most of them have Turkish-Mongol DNA. In fact, DNA research shows that the Palestinians actually have more Israelite blood than do the Khazar 'Jews!'
The Khazar heritage of Ashkenazi Jews is a historical fact, and hence forfeits their Biblical Right to Palestine, which is often cited by Israeli leaders and fundamental Christian supporters. So when the Jewish people was declared a nation (at the UNSCOP Committee at Lake Success on May 6, 1946) Brother Branham said, "America made her last decision" (The Handwriting of the Wall, 58-0309M, par. E-39; Joel 3:2).
SO WHO ARE THE JEWISH KHAZARS? Since the Ashkenazi Jews are not the descendents of Abraham, a homeland should have been created for them in their old land of Khazaria, not in Palestine. Many also fled to the United States. Today, there's an estimated 7 million Ashkenazi Jews in the United States, 6 million in Israel, and 4 million worldwide. (These largely Serpent's seed, supported by the US and NATO are fighting Russia to recover the Ukraine, that is, Khazaria, hence they hope to conquer and rule one world government from Russia.
In 1999, Kevin Brook wrote the book, "The Jews of Khazaria," which provides historical information on the Khazarian culture and their conversion to Judaism.
In 2007, University of Tel Aviv history teacher, Schlomo Sand, verified their Turkic-Mongol heritage in his book called "Invention of the Jewish People" PDF. The "Jews are not a race and have no Israelite connection. DNA research confirms that 97% of "Jews" are NOT descendants of Abraham.
In 2001, Dr. Ariella Oppenheim, a biologist at Hebrew University, published the first extensive study of DNA and the origin of the Jews. Her research found that virtually all the Jews came from Khazar blood. The Y chromosome Pool of Jews as Part of the Genetic Landscape of the Middle East. She also confirmed that the Palestinians—the very people whom the Jews have been persecuting since 1948—had more Israelite blood than did the Jews.
Dr. Eran Elhaik and associates at the McKusick-Nathans Institute of Genetic Medicine, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, proved through DNA science today's Jews are not related to Abraham, but they descended from the Khazars. Entitled, "The Missing Link of Jewish European Ancestry: Contrasting the Rhineland and the Khazarian Hypotheses," and published by the Oxford Journal on behalf of the Society for Molecular Biology and Evolution, the study confirms Oppenheim's research and the many scholarly books.
In Luke 21:24-28 Jesus said, "Jerusalem shall be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh" (Isaiah 34:1-4).
"The times of the Gentiles" commenced with Nebuchadnezzar's conquest of Jerusalem, and will continue well after the Gentile dispensation to the consummation. The Hebrew dispensation ended when Israel crucified his Messiah. The Gentile dispensation will end at the manifestation of the Seventh Trumpet, Sixth Seal, and Seventh Vial which will call the resurrection of the Church Age saints before Christ returns to Israel.
The "Khazarian hypothesis" holds that the Jewry genome is a mosaic of ancestries which rise primarily out of the Khazars but it is an error to conflate Israelites with the unscriptural modern English word "Jew." Israelites are descendants of the blood of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob without admixture. Every Prime Minister of the modern Israel state has been an Ashkenazi imposter who has illegitimately taken control over the Promised Land. These non-Semitic Jews are often physical Serpent's seed of Cain's race and rule most nations through the Money Power.
One of the principles of Yahweh Torah is that they are a people in exile due to Divine decree and are required to be loyal citizens of the host nations, primarily in North Africa—Iraq, Iran, Syria and the African Peninsula—not to rebel or wage war. They stand against Zionism and are unwelcome and endangered in the Holy Land. Zionists such as Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin accomplished their goal of statehood through killing and stealing; in the process depriving the indigenous inhabitants of the land and Palestinians of their rights, which is forbidden by the Torah. Eighteen Encyclopedias show Jews to be Khazars and Not Israelites. Here are more encyclopedias with page and paragraph numbers. Judaism in its Own Words–Who is Human? Who is Not?
From the birth of Cain and Abel to the present day there have been two races on earth and God put "enmity" between the seed of the Serpent which has no inheritance on earth and the seed of Adam who was a son of God (Genesis 4:11-16; Deuteronomy 7:1-4; Ezra 9:12). Cain's father the Serpent was a handsome articulate man-like animal without a soul, but he had a place for a soul which Lucifer incarnate. Cain's mother Eve brought forth after her likeness so Cain had a soul but as he was not in Adam's genealogy he and his offspring are absent the Book of life, accursed of God and LOST.
In Deuteronomy 7:1-4 the Lord commanded Moses and all Israel, "When the Lord brings you into the Promised Land, He will cast out the following seven nations, all greater and mightier than you are: the Hittites, and the Girgashites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites. And when the Lord God delivers them to you; you shall smite and utterly destroy them; you shall make no covenant nor show mercy to them: neither shall you intermarry with them nor let your sons and daughters marry their sons and daughters for they will turn away your sons from following Me, to serve other gods. Then the anger of the Lord will be kindled against you, to destroy you suddenly".
Matthew 1:21-25, "And God set enmity between the Serpent and the woman, and between the seed or offspring of the Serpent and the seed of the Woman" (Israel, Genesis 3:15). "For that which was conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost," which is Israel's Messiah, even our Lord Jesus Christ.
When Joshua and Caleb were allocating tribal Lands, the enemy confronted Israel and "made war by way of deception" as do the non-Semitic, anti-Semitic Israelis today. Without consulting the Lord Israel made a covenant with the Gibeonites who are Amorites, physical Serpent's seed of Cain's race and accursed of God. In the days of our Lord the Judeans were primarily physical Serpent's seed for Jerusalem's high priest John Hyrcanus I had assimilated the more numerous Esau/Edom who were physical Serpent's seed like of the powerful Israeli Jews so-called who crucified Messiah and rule the world "by way of deception".
Their holy book is the leud Babylonian Talmud not the Tanakh; they see themselves as g_d's Chosen People and regard us Gentiles as animals g_d created in human form to serve Jews, and "Even the best of the Goim should be killed," Abhodah Zarah (26b, Tosephoth). Palestinians, you, and I are being slaughtered day and night. However the non-Semitic, anti-Semitic self-styled Jews who impersonate Israelites and slaughter Semitic Palestinians in obedience to Talmudic rabbis will soon abandon Israel following a mass exodus of the impostors. Then Semitic Lebanese, African Peninsula Arabs, Syrians, Iranians, Iraqis and their Israelite guests will return to the Land of their Covenant.
Eisenhower was the primary driver behind the memorialization of the Holocaust; he ordered extraordinary measures to ensure the well-being of Jewish displaced persons during the occupation of Germany. Following David Ben-Gurion's recommendation, he established a "temporary haven" in the American Zone of Occupation for persecuted Jews from Eastern and Central Europe—a policy both the Soviets and the British strongly opposed.
The mere mention of German suffering in World War II is regarded by many as implicit German war crimes denial. This one is not. The treatment of Prisoners of War by Soviet Union and the Third Reich is well known, but the war crimes committed by the Western Allies are hardly spoken of. US Colonel Ernest F. Fisher, 101st Airborne Division, who in 1945 took part in investigations into allegations of misconduct by US troops in Germany and later became a Senior Historian with the United States Army alleges that US General Dwight D. Eisenhower intentionally caused the deaths by starvation or exposure of German POWs held in Western internment camps after World War II. Hundreds of thousands of German POWs were designated as Disarmed Enemy Forces in order to avoid recognition under the third Geneva Convention, for the purpose of carrying out their deaths through disease or slow starvation. The standards set by the Geneva Convention were, in most cases, totally ignored by the Americans and French in relation to their treatment of German POWs.
The camps were simply open fields surrounded by concertina wire. The worst US temporary enclosures were the 19 Rhine Meadow camps founded in April 1945. Those were situated in Allied-occupied western Germany at Bad Kreuznach, Bretzenheim, Büderich, Heidesheim, Remagen-Sinzig, Rheinberg and Wickrathberg. The German POWs were denied enough food and water and had to sleep in holes which they dug with their bare hands. In the Bad Kreuznach cage alone, 557,000 men were interned in an area that could only comfortably hold 45,000 and the camps soon became huge latrines. Prisoners died in their thousands through deliberate starvation, disease and exposure. The task of guarding these prisoners, numbering around 920,000, fell to the men of US 106th Infantry Division.
The former US Prison Guard at the Andernach enclosure Adjunct Professor of Philosophy and Religion Martin Brech wrote: Quickly they grew emaciated. Dysentery raged, and soon they were sleeping in their own excrement, too weak and crowded to reach the slit trenches. Many were begging for food, sickening and dying before our eyes. We had ample food and supplies, but did nothing to help them, including no medical assistance.

The Politician
by Robert Welch all rights reserved"The American government had saved the Soviet regime from financial collapse in 1933, and given its prestige and credit the vital hypodermic injection, by recognition. The American government had saved the Soviet regime from destruction by Hitler's armies, in 1942 and 1943, through intervention with both supplies and military force. The American government had made possible all of the postwar expansion of the Soviet empire, by acquiescence and frequently by collaboration in the Soviet subjugation of other nations. But in the spring of 1953 the American people were no longer in a mood to condone such a partnership. The American people had begun to wake up to the extent of Communist infiltration into our government and into every segment of our public life. They were, at long last, realizing the crime of "containment" and the folly of appeasement. And without the American government to hold over the Kremlin the umbrella of its protection, against storms rising on every side, the Kremlin faced a very precarious future. Not since the siege of Stalingrad had the whole Communist tyranny been in so much danger of being wiped off the face of the earth.
The sad truth is that this tyranny was actually saved, in this period of great vulnerability, by just one thing; by the inauguration, on January 20, 1953, of Dwight David Eisenhower as President of the United States. The circumstances of his election made it politically necessary for him to bring many good men into his government. The rationale of his election, and the temper of the American people, made it imperative for a while that he talk a good brand of anti-Communism. But the Communist influences which completely controlled him kept the reins of that control tight and effective. Subtly, cleverly, always proclaiming otherwise and finding specious excuses for what were really pro-Communist actions; these Communist influences made him put the whole diplomatic power, economic power, and recognized leadership of this country to work, on the side of Russia and the Communists, in connection with every problem and trouble spot in their empire. You only have to look at where we stand today, five years later, at exactly these same spots on the scoreboard reviewed above, to realize the truth of this assertion and the extent of this Communist success. It simply was not possible to lose so much ground, so rapidly, to an enemy so inferior, by chance or by stupidity. The explanation calls for a very sinister and hated word, but one which is by no means new in the history of governments or of nations. The word is treason. It is the province of this treatise to show the part played in these treasonous developments, however unwittingly or unwillingly, by Dwight Eisenhower; and how, as the most completely opportunistic and unprincipled politician America has ever raised to high office, he was so supremely fitted for the part.
The Lieutenant Colonel
The Olympic Hotel in Seattle is a massive stone building, with a huge old-fashioned main dining room that has been a treat to this weary traveler, and to thousands like him, on many occasions over many years. Nevertheless, in 1940 the Olympic Hotel badly needed business. Early that fall the manager hit upon a gesture of hospitality which he thought might serve as bait to bring in more customers. He was after, specifically, more patronage from the younger officers of the rapidly increasing US Army forces at nearby Ft. Lewis. And he believed that if the colonels made the Olympic their social headquarters, the lieutenants surely would follow.
So the hotel manager telephoned a colonel with whom he had recently been on a fishing trip. He invited this gentleman to bring three or four other officers besides himself to dinner, in the manager's four-room apartment in the hotel. The colonel accepted. One of the officers he took along for the evening was a lieutenant colonel, by the name of Dwight D. Eisenhower. The only other guests were John Boettiger and his wife, the former Anna Roosevelt Dall, daughter of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Anna's place in her father's affections, and influence over him were well known at that time. As soon as Lt. Colonel Eisenhower saw Mrs. Boettiger, and realized who she was, he asked to be seated next to her at dinner. Before dinner, during dinner, and after dinner, he monopolized her attention. They conversed together throughout the evening, to the visible exclusion of the others present. But much of their conversation, naturally and necessarily, was overheard. And the burden of Ike's song for hour on hour was the greatness of Franklin D. Roosevelt. In telling the daughter how wonderful her father was the lieutenant colonel managed to cover with fulsome praise practically all the words and works of the President.
Early the next morning Anna was on the telephone to her father in Washington. "I've found the man, she said. And she proceeded to tell the abnormally vain FDR what a hero-worshipper of his, and what a genius, she had discovered in an army uniform. Within a few days although the incident is completely and understandably ignored in Ike's own account of this period, in his ghost-written autobiography, Crusade in Europe Lt. Colonel Eisenhower was ordered to Washington for an interview in the White House.
A few weeks later Eisenhower, back at Ft. Lewis, was made Chief of Staff of the 3rd Infantry Division. Four months later, in March of 1941, he became Colonel Eisenhower, and was made Chief of Staff of the whole Ninth Army Corps. In June he was made Chief of Staff of the United States Third Army, with headquarters at San Antonio. There, in his own language, he "was brought closer to the problems of the Army of the United States as a whole. At the end of September, of that same year of 1941, he became a brigadier general. Five days after Pearl Harbor, or on December 12, 1941, he was called to Washington by telephone, in advance of written orders, by Walter Bedell Smith, who was conveying instructions from General George C. Marshall.
Brigadier General Eisenhower met General Marshall in Washington on December 14, and was immediately brought into war planning at the highest level.
On February 16, 1942 he was made Assistant Chief of Staff of the War Plans Division. On March 9, as the War Plans Division was replaced by the OPD Operations Division of the War Department General Eisenhower became its first head, with the rank of Major General. On June 11 he was given command of our "European Theatre of Operations"; and soon "fell into the habit" of having luncheon with Winston Churchill at 10 Downing Street every Tuesday, and dinner with Churchill at the latter's home every Thursday. In July, 1942 he was given the three stars of a lieutenant general. On February 11, 1943 less than two years from the time when he had still been a lieutenant colonel, Eisenhower became a full general. And ten months later, although he had never been in combat command of even a battalion, and had never seen a battle, General Eisenhower was made Commander in Chief of all the Allied forces in Western Europe.
We do not wish to imply, however, that this meteoric rise was due entirely to the exercise of Eisenhower's flattering charm on Anna Roosevelt Boettiger, nor even to the personal favoritism of her father which he thereby obtained. There were more comprehensive forces at work. The first of these were the overall and continuous brilliance of Dwight D. Eisenhower as a politician. This aptitude (which included some unsavory tricks for self-promotion at the expense of his associates and superiors) had already been well utilized, to give him the nebulous but profitable reputation of being "an outstanding officer." For Eisenhower is not only all politician so far as his ability is concerned. He is the living embodiment of practically all of the skills and attitudes that every ambitious politician would like to possess.
His most obvious asset in political maneuvers is the personal charm to which we have already referred Few men have ever exemplified more conclusively Shakespeare's wise observation that" one may smile, and smile, and be a villain. "Woodrow Wilson, for all the subtlety of his skill as a politician, lacked this characteristic of disarming self- ingratiation, which Franklin Roosevelt found so useful and which Eisenhower has made even more so.
But Eisenhower is more like Wilson, and goes far beyond him, in the second asset of his inventory—which is the successful pretense of not being a politician at all. Here is, in plain and completely provable fact, the "big lie;" the lie so big, and so exactly the opposite of the truth, that it simply does not occur to most people to examine it, as possibly a lie, at all. La Rochefoucauld said: "It is a great cleverness to know how to conceal one's cleverness." With regard to his political cleverness Eisenhower has performed this feat in the style of a master.
The General's contribution towards winning World War II, for instance, was important; but it was entirely that of a political "fixer." Whether working with (or on) Darlan and de Gaulle, or smoothing out frictions and disagreements between the British and American chiefs of staff, his skill was so great that even Alanbrooke said that "we, as allies, were extremely fortunate to have such a charming individual. As Supreme Commander what he may have lacked in military ability he greatly made up for by the charm of his personality." Actually Eisenhower was so poor at strategy, tactics, and the necessary qualifications for military command that even his unceasing sponsor, George Marshall, once cabled him in disgust that he was entirely too weak for the position which he held. He was, in fact, so indifferent a soldier that it became necessary for the top authorities to shunt him aside and upstairs, in such an exalted position that he had only political considerations to which to devote his energy and time, in order that the real soldiers under him could get on with their campaigns and the business of winning the war. And yet he came out of the war, and took a place in the American public mind, as a great soldier; a man who had won the war by his superb military generalship; and a man so completely naive in politics that he didn't even know what was happening, in the gigantic build up of himself for the presidency. So firmly and cleverly was this reputation established that not even after five years of Eisenhower as President, during which time he has continuously engaged in far more dirty, more deceptive, and more ruthless behind-the-scenes political manipulations than even Roosevelt never undertook, have the American people begun to see the politician in the uniform of a soldier or under the silk hat of the statesman.
So, returning to the discussion of Eisenhower's rise in four years from being an unknown lieutenant colonel to becoming the Supreme Commander of the largest military force ever organized, with dozens of the very ablest generals of Europe and America under him, there are those even among his most severe critics who attribute this fantastic ascent entirely to his charm and political genius; to the same consciously employed smoothness that hypnotized Anna Roosevelt and her father, and started Ike on his way. And of course they could be right. But we think these critics are entirely too optimistic, too generous, and too blind to other influences which were sweeping him along.
We believe that some very sinister but powerful forces had already put their mark on Eisenhower as a pliable tool of the future; that they recognized in him a politician who, for personal promotion and prestige and glory, would always be willing to sail before the winds they created and to keep his compass pointed in the direction they desired. And we believe not only that these forces were already helping the advancement of his career, at every turn, but that this conclusion can be convincingly substantiated by a careful enough study of the record.
We agree that the dinner in Seattle was extremely fortunate for Eisenhower and his promoters; and that this opportunity to reveal himself to one of the Roosevelt clan as so kindred a spirit was important. But we also think that if this propitious opening had not occurred, he or his behind-the-scenes manipulators would have invented one which served almost as well. While it is probable that Roosevelt's sheer favoritism, once gained and held by the Eisenhower flattery and charm, might alone have put Eisenhower in a major-general's uniform before the war was over, we think it took those sinister forces, of which Roosevelt himself was a half willing but never quite conscious captive, to parlay the Eisenhower winnings into so grand and useful a final prize. And we think this fact is the key to much of the tragic history of the last fifteen years.
Lucky Ike
For, let's go back to December 12, 1941. It was only the preceding Sunday that General George C. Marshall had woefully failed to use the telephone, or any other prompt means, to give General Short and Admiral Kimmel in Hawaii his own advance information as to the coming Japanese attack. Half of the American fleet had been deliberately decoyed as sitting ducks in Pearl Harbor, with Marshall's full knowledge and connivance, to induce the Japanese to strike. So afraid were he and Roosevelt that the Hawaiian commanders might somehow get some warning of Japanese intentions that they had even denied these commanders the possession of a "Purple" decoding machine, through which Kimmel and Short might themselves have learned at firsthand what was afoot. And while Roosevelt was equally guilty with Marshall of this particular piece of deliberate treason, I believe that the history of the two men and of the period will show a huge difference in motives. Roosevelt, being swept along and used by Communist forces which he thought he was using, avid for the glory and the power of being a wartime president and of tossing around millions of men and billions of dollars with a nod of his head, dreaming of accomplishing what Wilson had tried but failed to do, seeing himself sometime in the future as the world-worshipped hero who had saved it for democracy and perhaps even united it under his own leadership; Roosevelt thus saw the coming loss at Pearl Harbor as a worthwhile gambit for the sake of getting us into the war through a blow struck first by an enemy.
It was criminal. In fact, it was treason. But getting the enemy to strike first, in a war that seems inevitable, is nothing new in the history of nations. Those who would condone it can point to precedents in the past. And there are plenty of intelligent and otherwise patriotic Americans today who, recognizing and admitting everything we have stated above, still claim that Roosevelt was justified in making this calculated sacrifice in order to unite the country at once in wartime effort against enemies who sought to destroy it. We vigorously disagree, but they have at least an understandable argument.
George Marshall's purpose, however, in our opinion, was not to save his country, but to carry forward Communist plans which would ultimately deliver it to Communism. His immediate goal was to get America into the war, at any cost, in order to relieve Stalin from the terrible pressure of the German armies. It was Japan, who attacked us, but Marshall headed the necessary strength and influence which caused us to throw all of our gathering war might against Germany or in the form of supplies and armament directly to the aid of the Russians. It was Marshall who insisted on our launching an immediate landing and second front in France, even in 1942, at whatever cost; and who kept on so insisting, even after the British had shown everybody else enough of the facts of life about crossing the Channel at that time to make the idea obviously absurd. Alanbrooke even charges that Marshall didn't have the slightest plan as to what Allied troops would do, if and after any of them actually landed in France, or even as to which way they should try to go. This may be inaccurate or exaggerated. But it was prompted by Marshall's clamorous demand for a second front at once. The British, and even most of the American generals as soon as they got their bearings, merely thought that Marshall was horribly mistaken in this particular persistent view. But if they had realized that he didn't care what the fiasco and its continued repetition would have cost in American lives, provided it diverted German troops and attention from the Eastern front, they could more easily have reconciled this folly with the reasonable ability Marshall exhibited otherwise in carrying on the war.
For while this is certainly not the place to go into a hundred pages, to show that George Marshall always conducted the American side of the war for the benefit of the Kremlin, to the very best of his ability, or into a thousand pages of other details and circumstances to show all he accomplished for the Kremlin in the years following the war, it is necessary to enter the conclusion to which those pages would lead. I defy anybody, who is not actually a Communist himself, to read all of the known facts about his career and not decide that since at least sometime in the 1930's George Catlett Marshall has been a conscious, deliberate, dedicated agent of the Soviet conspiracy. There is, in my opinion, simply no escape from such overwhelming evidence. But if the reader doubts this conclusion, as he has every right to do, and since I cannot stop to bolster it with the needed facts and arguments here, I ask him to accept it merely as a possibility for the present, and let us go on with our story.
At any rate, Marshall is justly famous for his memory of, and attention to, details. It is true that he later was to testify under oath that he couldn't even remember where he had been or what he had been doing, during those fatal final hours on December 7, 1941, when he already knew that the Japanese bombers were nearing the Hawaiian coast. (It has now been reported, on good authority, that he spent most of the day at the Russian Embassy, conferring with Litvinov who had arrived that morning. So his reluctance to remember is easy to understand.) But this same George Catlett Marshall had the memory and the motive, on December 12, to reach out by telephone for this one officer, Dwight D. Eisenhower, among hundreds of equal rank and superior experience. And the fact that Eisenhower was already known to be a favorite of the President undoubtedly made it seem much easier and more natural for Marshall to mark him as a protégé of his own.
Please remember, too, that in all the countless conferences of the early war years, in Washington and London and everywhere else, it was usually George Marshall, speaking for the military, and Harry Hopkins, speaking for the President, who represented the United States or carried the real weight among our representatives. It was Marshall and Hopkins who had by far the most to say about which generals should be moved or promoted into which commands, in the rapidly coalescing and increasing Allied forces. This was true at the very time that Harry Hopkins was specifically and almost solely responsible for the transmission to Moscow, through Great Falls, Montana, of secrets and documents concerning American power, fifty black suitcases full at that time; and of materials for the construction of an atom bomb, to help the Russians get started, years before we had produced one ourselves and while that production was still supposed to be the greatest secret in our history.
It is to me inconceivable that under all the circumstances which prevailed, and with so many able and experienced generals available, Lt. Colonel Eisenhower could have been shot up all the way to Supreme Commander Eisenhower in so short a time, and with so obviously little military ability, without the Communist push behind him every step of the way. (Lord Alanbrook, watching Ike's ascent to greatness while sadly conscious, from close observation, of his manifest unfitness for such responsibilities, and without any inkling of the real reasons for this ascent, could and did ascribe it only to Eisenhower luck. But that luck, we believe, was provided directly from the Kremlin, with a hammer and sickle woven into every gorgeous piece).
There are other possible explanations of course. "And this one measure of tentative evidence does not prove that his unceasing promotion was due to Communist support. But please note that such support would explain this particular development very neatly and completely. And it is the total of so many developments and events, which the same premise would explain equally well, that makes the mathematical probability in favor of this explanation a practical certainty as I hope to show.
The Supreme Commander
This is not a biography. I shall not try to give any narrative coverage of Eisenhower's life, nor even of any particular period of his life. So I see no need for too strict attention to chronology, in connection with matters which seem relevant to my argument. But the first strong evidence of where Eisenhower's sympathies lay or where he thought it was smart personal politics to have them lie—as he began his wartime career, was his insistence on an immediate second front in France. The plan for an early Anglo-American invasion of Northern France, which George Marshall and Harry Hopkins took to London, in April, 1942, to persuade the British to adopt, had been prepared by Eisenhower as the new head of the Operations Division of our War Department. It contemplated the beginning of the main permanent invasion—Operation Roundup with eighteen British Divisions, in the spring of 1943. American troops were to be pored over, through Britain, as fast as they could be trained and transported, to increase this force rapidly to a million men. But, in order to relieve Russia earlier, a smaller preliminary landing Operation Sledgehammer was to be undertaken that very summer. This was recognized as "probably sacrificial." The cost in British and American lives, however, did not disturb Marshall, Hopkins, and Eisenhower, if they could help out Stalin.
I certainly do not claim to be any military strategist. But the British wartime Chief of Staff has written that "in the light of the existing situation his plans (meaning Marshall's plans, prepared by Eisenhower) for September of 1942 were just fantastic." Many years later Eisenhower himself, with a reputation for military knowledge which now needed protection, wrote that "later developments have convinced me that those who held the Sledgehammer operation to be unwise at the moment were correct in their evaluation of the problem." All of which could mean, of course, only that the utterly inexperienced "American Chief of War Plans, "Eisenhower, had made a bad mistake in judgment. But it should be noted that this mistake in judgment was vigorously in favor of what Stalin wanted. (For instance the so-called Hollywood Democratic Committee, consisting of a hard core of Communists and sympathizers, who had lost none of their enthusiasm through the Stalin-Hitler brotherhood period, was now screaming and kept on screaming for a second front in France and not through the Balkans. So did every other Communist front in America). And it would be very difficult to find any "mistakes in judgment" which Eisenhower made later in the war of which there were plenty not in Stalin's favor. It is not too far-fetched to guess that so green a man had been put in so strategically important a position because the unfailing direction, which his "mistakes in judgment" would take, could be surmised with confidence.
Fantastic or not, the "Sledgehammer" plan was unceasingly urged by Marshall and Eisenhower throughout the fall of 1942. Then, in the spring of 1943, Eisenhower supported Marshall in his efforts to carry out Stalin's desires and get a cross-channel invasion started at once, despite the still utterly inadequate supply of troops, war materiel, and shipping for such a move. Eventually, in 1944, Stalin, George Marshall, and Eisenhower together were able to overrule Churchill and the British, stop the Allied forces which had invaded Italy from crossing the Po Valley into the Balkans, and open up their second front in France. This not only increased the relief for Stalin on the Eastern front, which was being provided by the Allied campaigns anyway, but from Stalin's point of view it accomplished what was now a far more important purpose. It left the Balkans wide open for the Soviet agents and Soviet armies to take them over, in the chaos that accompanied the German collapse.
Eisenhower's part in these decisions was increasingly important. Far more serious and revealing, however, than the lines of strategy which he supported as he moved into the councils of the mighty, were those "mistakes in judgment" which he perpetrated on his authority as Supreme Commander or on his own initiative, without proper authority, towards the close of the war and in the months following its end. Most notorious of these "mistakes" was his stopping of our troops from entering Prague and Berlin, in order to give the Russians time to reach and take those capitals, when both cities were begging to be allowed to surrender to the Americans. The action was on a par with the transfer of troops out of Italy to France for a new front, instead of continuing the successful campaign through Italy. It served the same purpose of helping Stalin's postwar plans. But this decision was entirely, or primarily, Eisenhower's.
Just to complete the argument, however, it should be noted that the only agreement which could have been supposed to tie Eisenhower's hands in this way was the one already made for the postwar division of Germany into occupational zones. The eastward line of the zones allotted to the British and Americans ran about two hundred miles west of Berlin. But Eisenhower himself says: "This future division of Germany did not influence our military plans for the final conquest of the country." He admits, or even boasts, that the troop-halting decision was his own, in this paragraph in Crusade in Europe: "A natural objective beyond the Ruhr was Berlin. It was politically and psychologically important as the symbol of remaining German power. I decided, however, that it was not the logical or the most desirable objective for the forces of the Western Allies". And he then gives several pages of specious reasoning to explain what he obviously realized would appear to have been his inexplicable and high-handed change in the plans to take Berlin which the British thought had already been settled. It should be remembered that his book was written in time for publication in 1948; and that, in view of the true significance which has since been revealed of this and many other "blunders" by Eisenhower, he would undoubtedly attempt to put an entirely different light on this action if "writing" the same book today.
Of course, while Eisenhower was offered immediate peaceful surrender, it took the Russians three weeks of hard fighting, at an utterly unnecessary cost of thousands of lives, to reach Berlin. What took place then will show why the Germans had been so pitifully anxious to surrender the city to American occupying troops. When General Frank Howley entered Berlin on June 17, he found this incident typical: "A former secretary of mine, a girl of seventeen, had to be wheeled in a baby carriage several blocks down her street to a hospital, after seven Russian soldiers had taken turns raping her and her mother in their apartment . . . Two hundred and thirty German girls were treated at the same hospital in a single day. Actually, what the barbarian Russian soldiers did in Berlin, while Eisenhower kept our troops obligingly waiting in the outskirts, has been described, probably without exaggeration, as "the most ghastly and enormous raping and looting orgy which Christian Europe had ever had to suffer." Soon thereafter, however, Eisenhower was in Russia, receiving from these "pals-in-arms" of his every honor and reward they could find to offer him, including an autographed photo of Premier Joseph Stalin, not the least doubt that he fully deserved these marks of great appreciation from Stalin, or that he was going to deserve them even more.
One item in the list of reasons for such gratitude was what Eisenhower had done, in another and entirely different maneuver, to the future of the city of Berlin. By 1944 the US War Department, under George Marshall's domination, had already rejected Cordell Hull's 1943 proposal that the post-war occupation zones in Germany "be so drawn as to bring each into contact with Berlin." It had already been accepted and agreed, among the Western allies, that Berlin would be entirely within the Russian occupation zone. So the question of a corridor into Berlin, from the other zones, became important. In February, 1944, the British suggested that such a post-war corridor be definitely planned by the European Advisory Commission. Again Marshall's War Department objected, saying that this matter of a corridor should be settled at the proper time by military representatives. In May, 1944, the European Advisory Commission closed up shop and turned its affairs over to Supreme Headquarters, Allied Expeditionary Force, of which Eisenhower was the head. From that time on, and through the clever preceding steps of Marshall which have been indicated above, the provision for an inviolable corridor into Berlin was solely the responsibility of Eisenhower as Supreme Commander".
No such corridor was provided. The actual negotiations for the route between Berlin and the West were conducted by General Lucius Clay, under Eisenhower's command. Then Eisenhower, sitting down with his friend, Marshal Zhukov, arrived at an understanding as to how the Russians would graciously permit passage in and out of Berlin along this route. But Zhukov was such a grand fellow and good friend that naturally no written agreement was needed; and this verbal "agreement" between Eisenhower and Zhukov is all the Western Allies, the Germans, and especially the people of Berlin, have had to depend on for their corridor to civilization. Of course Eisenhower "believed" that you could trust the Russians. It is a delusion under which he repeatedly claims to be laboring today.
The incredibly expensive Berlin airlift was just one of the costs of this "blunder." The other economic costs and the psychological and political costs, to the anti-Communist cause, have been beyond appraisal. Nor was the lack of a corridor the only pro-Russian monstrosity which Eisenhower arranged and allowed for Berlin. Just for one illustration of many less-noticed concessions, Hitler's old radio station, and the office building containing it, were turned over to the Russians, despite the fact that the building was in the British zone. One minor but sad consequence of this peculiar favor to the Communists was that, for years after the war, many anti-Communist refugees escaping from East Germany, and coming to this building first after crossing the line, would enter it for information. Nobody ever saw or heard of them again. Not only was it of great value for the Russians to have the use of this powerful radio station, but the building served as a beautiful trap for their most determined enemies.
Let's look next at another tremendous boost given the Russian Communist plans by Eisenhower, for which he justifiably took some of the credit in 1948, but which he undoubtedly would prefer to disclaim today. This was the instigation and early implementation of the so-called Morgenthau Plan for the conversion of Germany into a goat pasture so that it could never stand as a bulwark against the eventual Russian march across Europe. But for the foresight, patriotism and determination of just one man, James Forrestal (whom the Communists later, either directly or indirectly, murdered), Eisenhower and his Communist pushers would have succeeded in carrying out the complete and final devastation which they planned.
The egg of the Morgenthau Plan was laid during a discussion of Germany's future, which took place at Eisenhower's English headquarters, in August, 1944. In Crusade in Europe Eisenhower (or his Communist ghost writer, Joseph Barnes) says that the discussion arose because of the visit of Secretary Morgenthau. But even in 1948 Mr. Barnes was careful not to have Eisenhower mention that (Jew) Harry Dexter White and John G. Winant (US Ambassador to Britain) were also present at the meeting. As to primary responsibility for the plan, however, we can save a lot of rambling to assemble evidence by simply quoting Fred Smith, former Assistant to Secretary of Treasury, Henry Morgenthau, who has stated categorically in print: "On August 7, 1944, in a tent in southern England, the Morgenthau Plan was born. Actually it was General Dwight D. Eisenhower who launched the project." The same on-the-spot authority has also said of the plan that Eisenhower sparked it, Morgenthau organized it, and Harry Dexter White "built it." What the Morgenthau Plan set out to do was so barbarous, and its execution, if not arrested half way by the common sense which Forrestal was able to make prevail, would have been so disastrous to our own clear interests and to everybody except the Russian Communists, that no further emphasis on the significance of this plan, and of its origin, is needed here.
Instead we should move on to another pro-Communist policy—crime, in which Eisenhower played a considerable part and of which, strangely enough, the egg seems also to have been laid at this same meeting on August 7, 1944. This was the egg which hatched into the Nuremberg trials. Eisenhower quotes himself as having said on that inglorious occasion: "Prominent Nazis, along with certain industrialists, must be tried and punished. Membership in the Gestapo and in the SS should be taken as prima facie evidence of guilt. The General Staff must be broken up, all its archives confiscated, and members suspected of complicity in starting the war or in any war crimes should be tried, Considering the complicity of Franklin D. Roosevelt and George Marshall in starting the war with Japan, of which Eisenhower was certainly aware by 1944, the sanctimonious savagery of that part of the statement reached a new high in hypocrisy. And we can well imagine the burst of applause from Harry Dexter White. The intentional violation of some of the best established principles of international law, in order to promote the effectiveness of Russian terror, prestige, and control in Central Europe, was already clearly evident in this statement, without any regard to the facts involved or the utterly unfair way in which these new principles of ex post facto law were to be applied. But many of the circumstances which were really to make the Nuremberg trials such a heinous crime were still largely in the future. Not only did the raping and looting by Russian soldiers, in all of Germany which they occupied, exceed in barbarity anything of which their enemies were even accused at Nuremberg; but Eisenhower himself, as overall commander of the Western Allies, was just as responsible for the Stuttgart atrocity as were any of the German generals, tried at Nuremberg, for the actions of soldiers under their command. In that affair, long since fully proved despite everything the Eisenhower headquarters could do to keep it out of print, French Negro soldiers from Senegal (wearing American Lend-Lease uniforms) rounded up approximately four thousand German women of all ages in the Stuttgart subway and engaged in a raping orgy for three days.
Senator Robert A. Taft said on October 5, 1946, that "the hanging of the eleven men convicted at Nuremberg will be a blot on the American record which we shall long regret." But Randolph Churchill stated the case even more emphatically, and accurately. "Cold-blooded murder," was what he called the executions. The Germans were not hanged, he said, "for starting the war, but for losing it. If we tried the starters, why not put Stalin in the dock?" As a matter of fact, the worst single atrocity of the whole war, the Katyn Forest Massacre, committed by Stalin's orders, did almost become a subject of the trials. The Russians were actually going to have the Germans tried for this crime. When the Polish Government-in-Exile presented to Supreme Commander Eisenhower incontrovertible proof that it was the Russians who had so brutally murdered these thousands of Polish officers, the accusation against the Germans was dropped. But Eisenhower then helped to suppress the evidence, to avoid any trouble it might cause the Russians. Back in this country the Pentagon made sure that Major General Clayton Bissell stamped top secret on the report of Lt. Col. John H. Van Vliet, Jr., clearly showing the Russian guilt for this mass murder, and buried it until long after the Nuremberg trials were over.
Eisenhower was neither an official prosecutor nor judge at the Nuremberg trials. But he had helped actively to inspire them, in the planning that brought them about, and in the gathering of the completely one-sided evidence on which they were based. He fully approved of them, and the way they were conducted. He thereby helped, as much as any one man, to convince the Europeans of the horrible fate that would be in store for generals or statesmen who opposed the Russians, and that the Russian idea of justice would now prevail instead of the kind which Western Europe had hitherto accepted, at least in principle, since the days of the Romans.
You can, of course, find specious and perhaps plausible reasons, other than a plain desire to help the Russian Communists, for Eisenhower's actions in this connection, as elsewhere. But to do so requires considerable seeking and a lot of sophistry. While the explanation, as plain as day before the face of anybody who does not willingly close his eyes to it, that Eisenhower was making himself the trusted darling of the Extreme Left, leaves no loose ends around whatsoever. Also, this explanation is supported by an entirely different body of actions more or less simultaneous; by a course of action, for which Eisenhower was directly and almost solely responsible, so infamous, so extensive, and so innately pro-Communist in every aspect, that it should be given a separate chapter.
Operation Keelhaul
On November 23, 1954, Lt. General Edward M. Almond of the US Army was testifying before a Congressional committee in Washington. He was asked if he had been familiar, during World War II, with a man named Tinio. This was his reply:
"Yes, Sir. Tinio was a nomad from a Turkistanian area. I could not even locate it myself, if I tried. He had a partisan band and to look at them you would immediately decide they were cutthroat pirates. This band was a band of his own. He was a nomad. He came to Italy and joined with one of my regiments. He became a very reliable patrol leader. He many times and on more than one occasion occupied a sector of the front in the Apennines, virtually unoccupied by regular military personnel, between my right flank and the left flank of the Brazilian Division which was just beyond me or east of me, in the winter of 1945. He did such good work that he was known throughout my division. I think we gave him a certificate of accomplishment or something, just to be grateful about it.
"But one day soon after the war ended in Italy, in 1945, I was queried from General McNarney's headquarters, which he very properly did, because he had the request from a Soviet mission that had come to Italy." Apparently, they heard about this Tinio. The specific enquiry to me was: "Was there a Turkistanian by the name of Tinio with a band or a group operating in my sector?" I said: "Yes, there was one, but where he is now, I don't know. They said "Is he in your area now?"
"On investigation, I found he was still over there with the 370th Infantry, his friends. I got in touch with the colonel of that regiment. He said that he would and did talk to Tinio. He immediately discovered that he, Tinio, was very much alarmed, that the Soviets had queried about him. What he had done in his own country, I didn't inquire of him. I have no knowledge. He was a good fighter and on our side. But he was disturbed that the Russians wanted to know where he and his men were."
"I also attribute it to the fact that he was not a convert of the Communists or Soviets and that they were after him. I was ordered eventually to turn Tinio over to the Russians for transportation back to Russia, I did that with the complete conviction, based on the things I had gotten from Tinio and from those with whom he associated, that it meant his certain destruction, and that of his band . . . The italics above are ours. This valiant refugee from Communism must have been very proud when he thought he had not only found but had earned sure political asylum for himself and his band, among friends among the great freedom-loving Americans whom he had aided. His mistake was tragic, and fatal. And the source of the orders referred to will be clear in due course.
At the end of the war the Russian army pushed into Hungary, plundering, torturing, and raping as they went. Several thousand patriotic Hungarians put up a last ditch fight against this advance. When they could hold out no longer, they retreated far enough to surrender to American troops. The Russians set up a red regime, and this provisional government demanded the return of these prisoners by the Americans. There were no Hungarians on the compiled list of war criminals, so the American legal department in Germany refused to allow the extradition.
But a Mrs. Laszlo Endre, wife of one of these prisoners, had an uncomfortable premonition. On August 15, 1945 she managed to see Cardinal Rohracher, and asked him to intervene, to prevent these prisoners being delivered to the Communist government in Budapest. The Cardinal told her he had already spoken to General Mark Clark about this matter, and that General Clark was quite sure the prisoners would not be handed over to the Reds. But Mrs. Endre's well founded premonition was still working. Unsatisfied even by the Cardinal's confidence, she hunted up Countess Lili Alberti, an old school friend who was now working for the Allies. Mrs. Endre explained that she was seeking information as to the future safety of her husband and his colleagues. And there she got the true information, of which obviously neither the Cardinal nor even General Clark had been aware. The Countess told Mrs. Endre there was no hope. She said that all of these Hungarians, as well as all members of anti-Communist governments everywhere, would be delivered to the ountries of their origin which meant for these Hungarians, of course to the red so-called government now in their native Budapest. When Mrs. Endre then protested that General Clark had said this would not happen, the Countess simply answered: "I have seen the order. It is signed by Dwight Eisenhower. The Countess' information and prediction were quite correct. All of these Hungarian patriots were extradited, even though the US Legal Department in Germany never did sanction the extraditions, and many of them were publicly executed.
Nor is any of this a matter of either guessing or interpretation. The clear proofs of responsibility are all in the records, if anybody wishes to dig deep enough to find them and work hard enough to put them together. The best defense that Eisenhower and his inner circle of supporters have had, against accusations concerning this whole monstrous crime, was for a long time simply a conspiracy of silence. This typically Communist treatment of opposing truth was so successful that the comprehensive brief of indictment against Eisenhower, prepared by Dr. Bela Hubbard prior to the 1952 elections, did not even mention forced repatriation. But as parts of the record were gradually brought out here and there by anti-Communist researchers and historians, until the horrible truth began reaching the floor of Congress the Bosch Resolution of February 8, 1955 "—the Eisenhower apologists have tried to brush off any personal guilt on his part by blaming an agreement at Yalta for both the policy and its execution.
This is deliberate distortion and falsification, of the worst order. It's true that there was an agreement at Yalta, signed on behalf of the United States by General John R. Deane on February 11, 1945, which provided for the exchange of prisoners of war and "liberated" civilians, regardless of their desires. They were to be returned to their "countries of origin." Apparently under the influence of Alger Hiss, Secretary of State Stettinius and our delegation entered into this agreement despite everything Ambassador Joseph Grew, then Acting Secretary of State in Washington, could do to prevent it. Grew pointed out to Stettinius the agreement's illegality, its inhumanity, and its violation of the long established American principle of offering ready asylum to those persecuted for political views. Grew had already correctly stated our position with regard to Soviet nationals taken prisoner in German uniforms, in an official State Department note of February 1, 1945, to Nikolai V. Novikov, Soviet representative in Washington. He said that we could never forcibly repatriate Soviet nationals taken prisoner in German uniform, for the simple reason that international law required that they be treated as German prisoners of war.
He quoted the Geneva Convention, which does not permit the retaining state "to look behind the uniform." This was an excellent doctrine, long shared by civilized nations. Grew sent Stettinius a copy of this note, along with many telegrams, to Yalta. But it was all to no avail. Stalin was determined to have his vengeance, and Messrs. Stettinius, Hiss, et al., had Deane sign on the dotted line.
(Of course Grew was forced out of the State Department shortly thereafter by Dean Acheson, who took his place. And a decade later this particular note was considered so damaging to the Roosevelt—Stettinius reputations and to the pro-Communist arguments about Yalta, that the cover-up boys who managed and "released" the Yalta papers omitted it altogether. A copy of the note was made available to Julius Epstein by John Foster Dulles, on Mr. Epstein's discovering and presenting clear proof that the note did exist).
It was on the strength of the Dean agreement at Yalta, therefore, that Dwight Eisenhower could claim to have signed the order, which Countess Alberti saw, for the return of the Hungarian patriots to "the country of their origin." The fact that this was no longer actually their country, but had been taken over by the Communists, the very people against whom they had been fighting, was a mere trifle which Eisenhower chose to ignore.
But his part in the whole brutal program is far more important and ignominious than this mere resort to sophistry to have a few thousand Hungarian anti-Communists surrendered to their torturers. Among the Yalta papers there is a letter from Anthony Eden to the US Secretary of State, informing him of repatriations of Soviet nationals, from both England and Mediterranean areas, which had already been made, before Yalta; and stating that Allied Supreme Commander, Dwight D. Eisenhower, had already decided to extradite Russians as quickly as possible. And it was not just Russian nationals concerning whom he had made this decision. Those readers with good enough memories will recall the wave of suicides of Polish officers, who had served gallantly as volunteers with our troops in Italy, when these men found that they were being forcibly returned by our army to their certain death in a Poland which was now ruled by Stalin's Lublin Gang. For some brief mention of this affair did get into the American newspapers. But we were all too busy celebrating the universal and eternal peace, which had now been achieved, to pay any attention. And these Polish officers, who could not by any stretch of the imagination be considered prisoners of war, were not covered by the Yalta agreement at all. The responsibility for the merciless cruelty to these allies rests squarely on the shoulders of the Supreme Commander, Dwight D. Eisenhower.
The most important single implementation of the foul "Dean Agreement" was the destruction of General Vlasov's army. A Soviet Army Commander, Andrei A. Vlasov, who was at heart a bitter anti-Communist but an equally dedicated Russian patriot, surrendered to the Germans in 1942. His intention was to get their help in organizing a Russian army to free Russia from the Bolshevik tyranny. But he made it all too clear that he and his troops, even in German uniform, would never fight against the Western allies; that he didn't think the Germans themselves, or anybody but Russians, could ever conquer Russia; and that he was not at all interested in a German victory, but only in freeing Russia from the Soviet tyranny. Even though this, if successful, would have established peace on the Eastern front, the Germans at that time were riding high, and were so sure of being able to conquer and rule Russia, that they wouldn't listen to Vlasov's plans. Himmler tried only, and unsuccessfully, to use him for propaganda purposes. It was General Vlasov—or one of his subordinate generals who gave the journalist, Erich Kern, the remarkable definition of Bolshevism as "that terrible synthesis of madness and crime, which holds my poor, unhappy people in its grip." But he would have no part in helping to replace a Bolshevik tyranny with a Nazi tyranny, and so for a long time the Germans would have no part of him.
By 1944, however, the whole picture had changed. The Germans were desperately looking for help from any source. So it was Himmler himself who, at the very end of 1944, supported Vlasov in the organization and equipment of three divisions of Russians—refugees and prisoners of war—in German uniforms and as a part of the overall German army, to act as a "Russian Army of Liberation." (They became known as the ROA, from the Russian initials for these words). The divisions were formed, and were in action, by early in 1945. But of course it was too late. Their major effect was to anger Stalin by the number of his troops, at some points on the Eastern front, who immediately surrendered to ROA forces as soon as they learned the identity of these people in German uniforms against whom they were fighting.
As the coming German collapse became obvious, General Vlasov ordered all of his units to march to a prearranged spot in southern Austria. He and they were prepared, if necessary, to fight to the last man rather than be returned to Soviet Russia. But, quite properly, he did not believe this would be necessary The situation of his forces might best be understood by considering that of the Japanese on Hawaii at this same time. Many of these Japanese, feeling that it would be far better for Japan and the world in the long run, to be rid of the imperialistic military clique which controlled that country, had fought willingly and ably, however sad their hearts, in American uniform as American soldiers against the Japanese armies. But for Japan to have treated any of these Japanese, who were captured in American uniform, as anything but regular prisoners of war, would have been unthinkable under international law. For us to have entered into some agreement with Japan when the war was over to turn over to that country, for torture and death, any of these Japanese who had served in our uniform in our armies, would have been incredible. So Vlasov certainly had reason to hope and believe that he and his men would be accorded the civilized treatment of uniformed prisoners of war; especially since everything that had happened at Yalta was then still as secret as the grave.
On the way to the redoubt in Austria the First ROA Division, under General Bunichenko, side-stepped enough to march to Prague. At that time Patton's forces, which had reached Pilsen, fifty miles away, had been pulled back about fifty miles by Eisenhower's orders (on the excuse later given that he couldn't spare the gasoline for them to march fifty miles forward), in order to allow the Russians under Marshall Koniev to take the city. The inhabitants had revolted against the Germans, the departing Nazis had set fire to the city, and sheer horror prevailed. Bunichenko's division arrived, restored order on May 6, 7, and 8, and slipped away as Koniev's troops came in. Having learned in Prague that Eisenhower intended to let Russian troops occupy all of Czechoslovakia, General Bunichenko marched his ROA First Division westward until they reached the nearest American forces, and surrendered his twenty-five thousand men to the United States 3rd Army on May 10, 1945. The division was then forcibly disarmed, and compelled by United States tanks to march into the hands of the Red Army which was waiting for them. And the mass suicides which took place had no effect on these orders or arrangements.
In the meantime General Vlasov himself had been received as a guest at United States 3rd Army Headquarters. Not knowing exactly what was happening to his men, but deeply disturbed, he wrote letters to Eisenhower as Supreme Commander, and to the various Western governments, pleading that his forces. Not be returned to the Soviets, and asking that he and his leading officers be allowed to stand trial before an International Tribunal. But the last thing Stalin wanted was to give Vlasov any chance to justify and explain his course. Vlasov's men, of all units, were already being turned over by force to the Russians. But even the Supreme Commander did not quite dare use force, or have the 3rd Army use force, to surrender General Vlasov himself to the Soviets—especially since General Patton had tried to intercede on behalf of both Vlasov and his men. So, on May 12, 1945, Vlasov and his small staff were told that they had to go to the US 4th Army Headquarters for a conference. The convoy, "protected" by four tanks, set off for the conference site. A few miles out it was intercepted by Red soldiers, who arrested Vlasov, and all of his staff, and took them away, while their "protective" escort calmly looked on. And the Red Army car, which had blocked the road and which contained the Red officers who carried out this "arrest," was one that had waited patiently at 3rd Army Headquarters all that morning, until the convoy got under way. What finally happened to Vlasov and all of his men we do not know, and we certainly hate to think.
The key to that last episode, however, which is also the key to Eisenhower's guilt in the whole repatriation crime, is the question that was already revolving around the use of force in these repatriations. It must be remembered that the examples we have given are merely that; simply illustrations of what was happening everywhere, over half of Europe, not only to volunteers with our armies, and prisoners of war in German uniforms, but to vast numbers of civilians, including women and children, hundreds of thousands of whom had been settled in their new lives in new countries for years. And the herding and forcing of these people at bayonet point into box cars to be shipped back to Russia, by our soldiers under Eisenhower's overall command, was so brutal and heartrending that even the Pentagon officially designated the program as "Operation Keelhaul" keelhaul being the most cruel form of punishment known to the older navies. It was also brutal enough that our own officers and men got so they couldn't take it, but that is a point we are coming to presently. Now some apologists for Eisenhower say that he was merely carrying out orders, however infamous, as determined over his head at Yalta. One answer to this is that the War Trials at Nuremberg were conducted, right while much of this program was going on, under the aegis and influence of Supreme Commander Eisenhower; and that German generals were there being condemned to death for nothing more than carrying out orders, involving brutality, handed them by their superiors. Eisenhower not only carried out the same kind of orders, but never once even voiced a protest.
But that answer is really not necessary. The truth is that Eisenhower tremendously exceeded any official authority he had for the brutality of this program, even the authority of the Dean Agreement. For in that agreement not one word was said about using force to bring about these repatriations, and even that weak-kneed bunch of Stalin-worshippers who perpetrated the Dean Agreement would not have dared put themselves on record so far, in violation of recognized international law, as to have agreed to the use of force to implement Stalin's proposal ( The Politician, p. 4-38).
