The Duke of Marlborough
The Duke of Marlborough
Churchill's father, Lord Randolph, was second son of the seventh Duke of Marlborough. His ancestor, the first Duke, had risen to fame and fortune during the reign of Queen Anne. Described by one Victorian historian as notoriously fond of money, he played the decisive role in the overthrow of James II. When William of Orange landed at Torbay on 3rd November 1688, the future Duke of Marlborough, John Churchill, marched against the invader and then coolly turned his army over to him.
His conduct can easily be explained by reference to the Jewish
Encyclopaedia. This work declares that John Churchill, first Duke of
Marlborough, was paid the then enormous sum of £6,000 a year by Solomon
Medina in recognition of his many services. As the Jew's chosen
candidate to replace James II on the throne, the Dutchman William of
Orange was paid in the form of a 'loan' of two million Dutch guilders by
the Jewish merchant, Antonio Lopez Suasso, to take him across the
Channel. Although this has been kept out of the history books, it can be
seen that Jewish money-changers were the real power behind the scenes
controlling events. As pointed out, for valuable services rendered,
William allowed the Jews to establish their misnamed 'Bank of England',
which effectively gave them control over the country's affairs.
Thus was instituted the National Debt and the conversion of the English
into tax and debt slaves.
There is no doubt that John Churchill was a very capable general but he
was also extremely perfidious. For his great victories against the
French at Blenheim, Ramillies and Malplaquet he was voted an enormous
sum of money by Parliament, which enabled him to build the magnificent
Blenheim Palace at Woodstock. He was a mercenary who sold himself to the
highest bidder. After betraying James II he began to write letters to
him declaring that the time would soon come when he could return to
England. Arnold Foster, in his book A History of England, wrote:-
'For it is certain that on a later occasion he actually went so far as
to inform the French of an intended English expedition against Brest,
and the information which he gave helped to bring about the defeat of
the English and caused the loss of hundreds of English lives. When
Marlborough's treachery was discovered, he and his wife were disgraced
and dismissed from Court.'
So John Churchill betrayed his King and country on several occasions for
money when it suited him – even to the extent of causing the deaths of
hundreds of his soldiers, the very men who had brought him fame, fortune
and glory. The Jews did not pay him £6,000 a year for nothing.
On 21 June 1940 R. V. Jones briefed Churchill on Knickebein - a radio
beam guidance system used by the Luftwaffe for bombing through cloud
cover. In the resulting Battle of the Beams the British were able to
'bend the beams', influencing the drop point of German raids so that the
targets were missed completely.
During a raid on Thames Haven, on 24 August, some German aircraft (one
commanded by Rudolf Hallensleben who went on to win the Knights Cross
for other actions) strayed over London and dropped bombs in the east and
northeast parts of the city, Bethnal Green, Hackney, Islington,
Tottenham, and Finchley. It is not known with certainty whether this was
a navigational 'bungle' or a direct result of anti-Knickebein measures.
In any event, the incident prompted the British to mount a retaliatory
raid on Berlin the next night with bombs falling in Kreuzberg and
Wedding, causing 10 deaths.
here is a direct quote from Arthur "Bomber" Harris
"the aim of the Combined Bomber Offensive...should be unambiguously
stated [as] the destruction of German cities, the killing of German
workers, and the disruption of civilised life throughout Germany.It
should be emphasized that the destruction of houses, public utilities,
transport and lives, the creation of a refugee problem on an
unprecedented scale, and the breakdown of morale both at home and at the
battle fronts by fear of extended and intensified bombing, are accepted
and intended aims of our bombing policy. They are not by-products of
attempts to hit factories." Arthur Harris
Harris argued that the main objectives of night-time blanket bombing of
urban areas was to undermine the morale of the civilian population (NOT
TO DESTROY INDUSTRIAL TARGETS) and attacks were launched on Hamburg,
Berlin, Cologne, Dresden and other German cities. This air campaign
killed an estimated 600,000 civilians and destroyed or seriously damaged
some six million homes. It was a highly dangerous strategy and during
the war Bomber Command had 57,143 men killed.
Churchill, being an historian, became concerned about how these
firestorms would be seen during the post-war period. On 28th March,
1945, Churchill wrote to Bomber Harris: “It seems to me that the moment
has come when the question of bombing of German cities simply for the
sake of increasing the terror, should be reviewed. Otherwise we shall
come into control of an utterly ruined land. We shall not, for instance,
be able to get housing material out of Germany for our own needs because
some temporary provision would have to be made for the Germans
themselves. I feel the need for more precise concentration upon military
objectives, such as oil and communications behind the immediate
battle-zone, rather than on mere acts of terror and wanton destruction.”
The following quote by Lieutenant Ernest Fisher, of the 101st Airborne
Division and former Senior Historian of the United States Army is from
the book "Other Losses":
"Starting in April 1945, the United States Army and the French Army
casually annihilated about one million men, most of them in American
camps." Ernst Fisher 101st airborn Div.
The term "Eisenhower's death camps" is obviously not an official title
but the term given by former US guards and german prisoners, it is
estimated that 1.7 million to germans died from mistreatment toward the
end of the war and immediately after it by the revenge seeking victors
of all of the allied nations. It is also estimated that upwards of 7 to
9 million total germans and eastern europeans died at the end of the war
and in the first year after the war due to mistreatment by the allies
and the russians.
On March 10, 1945 as World War II was coming to an end, General
Eisenhower signed an order creating the status of Disarmed Enemy Forces
for the German Prisoners of War who would soon be surrendering to the
Americans. This order was a violation of the Geneva Convention because
it allowed Eisenhower to disregard the rules for the treatment of
Prisoners of War. It allowed him to starve the German POWs, deny them
the right to send and receive letters, and to receive Red Cross packages
and packages from German civilians. All of these rights were enjoyed by
the prisoners in the Nazi POW camps and even in the notorious
concentration camps. Eisenhower signed this order before he had even
seen the horrors of the concentration camps, which so affected him.
On May 7, 1945, the German army surrendered to General Eisenhower, who
refused to shake hands with the German General, as is customary.
The neutral country of Switzerland was removed as the Protecting Power
for German prisoners, which was another violation of the Geneva
Convention. General George S. Patton quickly released the prisoners who
had surrendered to his Third Army, but General Eisenhower held his POWs
until the end of 1946, forcing them to live on starvation rations. Red
Cross packages sent to the German POW camps were returned. The POW camps
had no barracks or tents.The German prisoners were forced to dig holes
in the ground for shelter. Even though the American army had plenty of
tents, the prisoners lived for months in their holes. When it rained,
the holes collapsed and the prisoners died.
there is an article written by a US soldier and guard at one camp that
gives details on the treatment of Germans prisoners under the care of
the US and French Armies
In October, 1944, at age eighteen, I was drafted into the U.S. army.
Largely because of the "Battle of the Bulge," my training was cut short.
In late March or early April, 1945, I was sent to guard a POW camp near
Andernach along the Rhine. The men I guarded had no shelter and no
blankets; many had no coats. They slept in the mud, wet and cold, with
inadequate slit trenches for excrement. It was a cold, wet spring and
their misery from exposure alone was evident.
Even more shocking was to see the prisoners throwing grass and weeds
into a tin can containing a thin soup. They told me they did this to
help ease their hunger pains. 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.
These prisoners, I found out, were mostly farmers and workingmen, as
simple and ignorant as many of our own troops. As time went on, more of
them lapsed into a zombie-like state of listlessness, while others tried
to escape in a demented or suicidal fashion, running through open fields
in broad daylight towards the Rhine to quench their thirst. They were
mowed down.
Hunger made German women more "available," but despite this, rape was
prevalent and often accompanied by additional violence. In particular I
remember an eighteen-year old woman who had the side of her faced
smashed with a rifle butt and was then raped by two G.I.s. Even the
French complained that the rapes, looting and drunken destructiveness on
the part of our troops was excessive.
