In spite of everything which has been written about
Eisenhower which makes him out to be a hero, there seems little question
that Dwight Eisenhower meets all the qualifications of a certified war
criminal, even if Bacque's figures are off a bit. (If Germany had been the
winner, there is little doubt he would have been tried and found guilty of
the most heinous crimes against mankind.)
Many veterans will get upset with this appraisal of a man they looked on
as a "bona fide" American hero. But the proof for these accusations can be
found in what happened to those Germans who were fortunate enough to
surrender to the British and the Canadians some two million of them. The
evidence shows that "almost all continued in fair health and many were
quickly released and sent home or transferred to the French, to help in
the post-war work of reconstruction.
Bacque specifically commends General Patton for behavior towards his POWs
in a civilized manner. His Third Army freed vast numbers of German
captives during May 1945, to the dismay, no doubt, of the Zionists who
controlled Washington.
Both General Omar Bradley and J. C. H. Lee, Communications Zone (ComZ)
Europe, ordered the release of prisoners within a week of the war's end.
This SHAEF order was countermanded by Eisenhower on May 15, 1945.
While German soldiers from the British and Canadian zones were quickly
regaining strength and were helping rebuild Europe, Germans taken by the
Americans were dying by the hundreds of thousands - emaciated figures in
diarrhea smeared clothing, huddling pitifully in watery holes with perhaps
a scrap of cardboard over their heads and a rotten potato for supper. At
times many of them were reduced to drinking urine and eating grass.
Did all this happen because of one supremely unprincipled and influential
man named Eisenhower? Or was Ike in turn influenced by a small circle
around him or by his superiors in Washington? Historians will be probing
this question for decades to come.
Here are the principle dates by which this infamy will live:
1944: Eisenhower told the British ambassador to Washington that the 3,500
officers of the German General staff should be ''exterminated.'' He also
favored the liquidation of perhaps 100,000 prominent Germans. Soon after,
he wrote to his wife, Mamie: "God, I hate Germans! Why? Because the German
is a beast!" Eisenhower said he was ashamed to bear a German name.
August 1944: The North American wheat surplus was greater than at any time
in history, nearly one billion bushels. The U.S. corn surplus and potato
crop also reached a new high.
March 10, 1944: A message sent from Eisenhower to the Combined Chiefs of
Staff (CCS) of Britain and the U.S. recommended the creation of an
entirely new class of prisoners, Disarmed Enemy Forces or DEFs. At a press
conference in Paris, this same day, Ike said: "If the Germans were
reasoning like normal beings, they would realize the whole history of the
United States and Great Britain is to be generous towards a defeated
enemy. We observe all the laws of the Geneva Convention.''
March 19, 1945: Eisenhower's special assistant, General Everett Hughes,
visited the American supply depots at Naples and Marseille. In both
places, he writes, there are ''more stocks than we can ever use. (They)
stretch as far as eye can see.''
Spring 1945: The International Red Cross had over 100,000 tons of food
stockpiled in Switzerland. At one point, it sent two trainloads into the
American Zone of Germany, but the food was sent back. The Morgenthau Plan
for a ''Carthaginian Peace'' in Germany, to use the words of Military
Governor Lucius Clay, is implemented through the directive JCS (Joint
Chiefs of Staff) 1067, which specifies to Eisenhower the policy he must
adopt towards every institution in Germany. The directive is largely the
work of three of Henry Morgenthau's underlings in the Treasury Department
Harry Dexter White, Frank Coe, and Harry Glasser. White and Glasser were
both Jews and all three were Communist ''fellow travelers.''
April 11, 1945: On the eve of his death, FDR told Morgenthau in Warm
Springs, GA: "Henry, I am with you l00%" When Truman took over, he
continued Morgenthau's "Carthaginian Policy" towards conquered Germany.
April 17, 1945: The Americans opened their enormous Rheinberg Camp, six
miles in circumference, with no food or shelter whatsoever. As in the
other big "Rhine meadow" camps, opened in mid-April, there was initially
no latrines and no water. In some camps, the men were so crowded they
could not lie down. Meanwhile, at Camp Kripp, near Remagen, the
half-American Charles von Luttichau determines that his German comrades
are receiving about 5% as much food as their captors." Complaining to the
camp commander, HE SAID: ''Forget the Geneva Convention. You don't have
any rights."
Late April 1945: Heinz Janssen, a survivor of the Rheinberg camp,
described conditions as they were at the time. "Amputees slithered like
amphibians through the mud , soaking and freezing. Naked to the skies day
after day and night after flight, they lay desperate in the sand of
Rheinberg or sleep exhaustedly into eternity in their collapsing holes.''
April 26, 1945: The Combined Chiefs of Staff sent a message to Eisenhower,
urging him not to take any more German prisoners after VE Day. He ignored
it. The CCS approved of Ike's proposed DEF status, but only for certain
types of German prisoners. The British refused to go against the Geneva
Convention. The CCS orders the illegal DEF status to be kept strictly
secret. By this date, Eisenhower's Quartermaster General of ASHAEF, Gen.
Robert Littlejohn, has already twice reduced the rations to German
prisoners. A message to Gen. George C. Marshall, signed by Ike, mandated:
''No shelter'' for German prisoners, despite an unusually cold and wet
March and April.
May 4, 1945: The first German POWs were transferred to DEF status. Mail to
and from all German prisoners was banned for more than a year.
May 8, 1945: Germany surrendered unconditionally. The U.S. State
Department wasted no time dismissing Switzerland as the official
Protecting Power for German prisoners, contravening the Geneva Convention.
State also informed the International Red Cross that, with no Protecting
Power to report to, there is no point in sending delegates to the camps.
From this day forward, prisoners held by the U.S. Army had no access to
any impartial observer. The British and Canadians also removed the Swiss
protectors, but continued treating their POWs decently.
May, 1945: The American Red Cross reported that more than 98% of Americans
captured by the Germans will be coming home safely, thanks in part to the
food parcels sent to them during the war, which were promptly delivered by
the Germans.
May 15, 1945: Eisenhower and Churchill talked about further reducing the
rations for the German POWs. Churchill was informed that the POWs have
been getting 2,000 calories per day (compared to 4,000 for American
troops) and that 2,150 was regarded as an absolute minimum required for
sedentary adults living under shelter. Eisenhower failed to tell Churchill
that the U.S. Army was not even feeding many DEFs, and that they were
feeding others, much less than 2,000 calories per day.
Mid-May 1945: The Bingen camp, near Bad Kreuznach in the Rhineland, was
now holding between 200,000 and 400,000 German POWs, with no shelter,
food, water, or medicine. The death rate for prisoners in these U.S. camps
were now about 30% per year, according to a U.S. medical survey.
June 2, 1945: The European Theater Provost Marshal issued two reports.
One, the last in a series of daily reports, logged 2,870,400 POWs on hand.
The other, the first report in a weekly series, dated the same day, logged
only 1,836,000. At one point in mid-June, the prisoner strength on the
ration list is given as 1,421,559, despite the evidence of Gen. J.C.H. Lee
and others that there were about 4 million. This bizarre bookkeeping
persisted throughout 1945 in all branches of the occupying army. The
apparent purpose was to obscure the death toll by means of an
indecipherable mass of conflicting Statistics. (One of Bacque's greatest
coups has been to decipher them.)
Mid - June, 1945: British "Tommies" took over the huge Rheinberg camp from
the Americans, saving many thousands of German lives. The final act of the
''Yanks" before the British took charge, was to bulldoze one section flat
while the men were still living in their holes in the ground. Meanwhile, a
team of doctors from the U.S. Army Medical Corps completed a survey of
some of the smaller Rhineland camps, holding some 80,000 POWs (not DEFs).
They found a death rate 80 times higher than anything they have known in
their professional career.
July, 1945: Eisenhower becomes military governor of the U.S. Zone in
Germany. He continued to turn back all relief teams from Switzerland, the
U.S. and elsewhere.
July 10, 1945: A French Army unit under Gen. Rousseau, took over the
Dietersheim camp (near Mainz) from the Americans. He found 32,000 men and
women of all ages in a moribund (dying) State. Another French officer Capt
.Julien, was taking command 17 days later and found a vast mire ''peopled
with living skeletons, male and female, huddling under scraps of wet card
board ." Horrified, Julien wrote: 'This is just like the photographs of
Buchenwald and Dachau.
July 20, 1945: Gen. Littlejohn received a memo stating, "These men, German
POWs are authorized a maximum of 1,150 calories for the non-workers and
1,850 for workers.'' (Remember, it takes 2,000 calories of keep a
sedentary adult alive.
July 26, 1945: The International Red Cross proposed restoring mail service
to German POWs. Fearing that the reality of the death camps might come to
light, the U. S. War Department rejected the idea.
August 4, 1945: Eisenhower ordered that all remaining German POWs be
stripped of their rights, thus reducing them to DEF status.
August 27, 1945: In a long memorandum, Gen. Littlejohn informed Eisenhower
that 1,550,000 Germans who supposedly were getting U.S. ARMY RATIONS, WERE
RECEIVING NOTHING. Ike turned a deaf ear to his report and the death rate
continued to climb.
August 30, 1945: Max Huber, head of the International Red Cross, wrote a
stinging letter to the U.S. State Department about American interference
in efforts to save starving Germans. Some months later, an evasive
response, signed ''Eisenhower,'' arrived in Washington, falsely claiming
that giving Red Cross food to enemy personnel was forbidden. Thousands of
train cars loaded with decaying food were sent back to Geneva arid to
sources in Paris and Brussels. Huber apologized for tying up the French
rail system because of the food which was being returned by the Americans.
By this time, more than 2-million German men had been discharged into
American custody, including thousands of priests, ministers, doctors, and
professors. Not one single camp commander or guard was questioned by the
Allied press corps and the controlled media of the U.S. concerning
conditions in these hell holes.
It might be well, to stop right here and ask this question: ''Is anyone
who reads this horrifying account, so naive as to believe that the
American people would have put up with these barbaric actions by its chief
military men if they had known about it? Do you think that the politicians
who were in the forefront of those who kept these facts from Americans
would have lasted very long in office, if the truth had been known? Do you
think that millions of Americans would show such concern for the Holocaust
of the Jews, if they knew that it was Jewish hatred for their fellow
kinsmen, that were killing over a million Germans? I sincerely doubt it!
That's why these facts have been kept from the American people for almost
fifty years.
Late Summer, 1945: Jean-Pierre Pradervand, head of the International Red
Cross delegations in France, told Henry W. Dunning, an American Red Cross
official, that conditions in the French camps are worse, in many
instances, than anything seen in the former Nazi camps. Pradervand showed
Dunning pictures of the living skeletons. Dunning explained all this to
the American Red Cross in Washington, which informed key government
officials. Nevertheless, the cover-up continued. Pradervand also informed
Charles De Gaulle that one-third of the prisoners handed over to France by
the Americans will die soon without a radical change in treatment. De
Gaulle showed no interest and the prisoners continued to die.
September 27, 1945: Pradervand's pictures of German living skeletons were
shown to Eisenhower in his office.
September 30, 1945 - October 1: The French newspaper, Le Monde, ran a
story which began: "As one speaks today of Dachau, in ten years people
throughout the world will speak about camps such as Saint Paul d'Egiaux.''
October 11,13, 14, 15, 20: The New York Times ran a cover-up report of the
death camps by star newsman Drew Middleton. Interviewed by Bacque in 1988,
Middleton admitted that he never actually visited any of the 50 U.S. camps
located within 40 miles of his Frankfurt desk, but was only 'driven by,'
as he was being debriefed by the military."
December 1945: Eisenhower returned to the States and the U.S. Army allowed
the first relief shipment to enter the American sector.
1947 - 1950's: Nearly all the surviving records of the Rhineland death
camps were destroyed. The West German government concluded that
1.7-million German soldiers were alive at the wars' end, and who were
known to have been in fair health, and disappeared. The Western Allies
pinned virtually all the blame on the Soviets.
1950: The first German edition of ALLHERERTE KRIEGSVERBRECHEN is
published. Never translated into English, the book gives eye-witness
descriptions of the conditions which prevailed in the American camps.
1960s - 1972: The West German Foreign Office, under Willy Brandt
subsidized books denying the atrocities in American POW camps and the high
death rate.
1980: The International Committee of the Red Cross refuses to open its
archives to James Bacque and other investigators into Allied atrocities.
To this day, the ICRC has remained silent on the subject, despite the
visits of Pradervand and other Red Cross delegates to many death camps.
September 1989: James Bacque's book on the American death camps, "Other
Losses," published by Stoddard, a Canadian Publishing House, was
released, after being refused by more than 30 American publishers.
Saturday night, one of Canada's most respected magazines. simultaneously
published a summary of this book as its lead story and within days Canada
was buzzing about Gen. Eisenhower's war crimes. Why is it that we have
heard little or nothing of this in the United States?
As American citizens, many of us who served in the American Armed Forces
during World War II, and a great many of us who are of German heritage,
should demand of our leaders in Washington, D.C. that the truth about this
War be made known.
With accurate information of what really happened, instead of Zionist
propaganda, just possibly we might be able to avert World War III, which
is now being planned by these same One Worlders.
It is interesting to note, that it has been proven in recent years, that
many of the pictures taken in Germany during WW II, purporting to be
Jewish victims of ''racial extermination,'' were actually pictures of
German civilians who had died under American war criminals.

The world gets crazier and crazier everyday, doesn't it? The world that many
of us thought was there, isn't. The bottom has dropped out of everything. The
illusions have been revealed, we have found out who has been pulling the strings
behind the scenes. Millions have lost their jobs, have mortgage
problems, and
foreclosure. What can be done? Amazingly, we have been mislead. We have been
taught that we can control government by voting. The founder of the Rothschild
dynasty, Mayer Amschel Bauer, told the secret of controlling the government
of a nation over 200 years ago. He said, "Permit
me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its
laws." Get
the picture? Your freedom hinges first on the nation's banks and money system.
It's all about 'commerce'. Freedom is connected with Debt Elimination for
each individual. Not only does this end
personal debt, it places the people first in line
as creditors to the National Debt ahead of the banks. They don't wish for
you to know this. It has to do with recognizing WHO you really are in A
New Beginning: A Practical Course in Miracles, an informational study. Is
your credit rating bad for reasons that seem out of your control? There are
ways of credit repair,
