Op 5 mei ontving ik een artikel van Information Clearing House (ICH) over de rol van de VS en GB tijdens WOII en dan m.n. de wetenschap bij de geallieerden over de doodskampen van nazi-Duitsland……
Na decennialange weigering, heeft de VN eindelijk het archief vrijgegeven van een oorlogsmisdaden commissie die de Europese archieven over de holocaust door de nazi’s tijdens WOII onderzocht. Londen en Washington hebben het vrijgeven van dit archief jarenlang proberen tegen te houden.
Niet zo vreemd als je bedenkt dat uit de vrijgegeven documenten blijkt dat er een geheime band bestond tussen de regeringen van de VS en Groot-Brittannië met de leiders van nazi-Duitsland……..
Uit de documenten blijkt verder dat de geallieerden al ver voor het eind van WOII op de hoogte waren van de nazi-vernietigingskampen, iets dat men na die oorlog altijd ontkende……
Voorts werpen de documenten meer licht op de weigering van de geallieerden een front in het westen te openen, zodat de Russen enigszins konden worden ontzet. Niet zo vreemd, daar men de ‘communisten’ weliswaar zag als partner in de strijd tegen de nazi’s, maar men een bijna even grondige afkeer had van de zogenaamd communistische Sovjet Unie…….
Ook nog eens aandacht voor de goede banden van VS multinationals met nazi-Duitsland, waar deze bedrijven fiks hadden geïnvesteerd in o.a. IG Farben, de fabrikant van Zyklon B, het gas waarmee de joden werden vermoord. Firma’s als Ford, IBM (niet genoemd in het artikel), ITT (speelde later een rol in de smerige CIA staatsgreep tegen het Chileense bewind van Allende op 11 september 1973), GM en Du Pont investeerden zwaar in Duitse bedrijven als het hiervoor genoemde IG Farben (waar ook nazi-prins Bernhard, voor werkte, Bernhard, de zelf gedroomde Nederlandse stadhouder van Hitler…), Krupp Stahl en Daimler……..
Verder kan u lezen over de inspanningen van de geallieerden na WOII, om nazi’s Duitsland uit te smokkelen.
De schrijver ziet terecht een overeenkomst met de huidige tijd, waarin Rusland wordt gedemoniseerd, terwijl de NAVO agressief aan haar grens staat…..

The
Deep History of US, Britain’s Never-Ending Cold War On Russia
By
Finian Cunningham
May
04, 2017 “Information
Clearing House” – After decades of delaying, the United
Nations finally released archives from the Second World War-era war
crimes commission investigating the Nazi Holocaust. The source of
those archives on Nazi war crimes were Western governments, including
those in exile at the time of the war, such as the Belgian, Polish
and Czechoslovakian. The time period covered is 1943-1949. Washington
and London had long sought to halt the release. Why?
Notably,
the landmark publication of the files last month was given scant
Western media coverage. Surprisingly, perhaps, because the story that
can be gleaned from the documents tells of a hidden history of the
Second World War, namely the systematic collusion between the
American and British governments and the Nazi Third Reich.
As
a report in Deutsche
Welle remarked
on the released archives: «The files make clear that [Western]
Allied forces knew more about the Nazi concentration camp system
before the end of the war than has generally been thought».
This
revelation points to more than just «knowledge» among the Western
allies of Nazi-era crimes; it points more damningly to state
collusion. This would also explain why Washington and London have
been reluctant to make the UN war crimes files publicly available.
There
has long been a controversial
debate among
Western nations about why the US and Britain in particular did not do
more to bomb the Nazi infrastructure of death camps and railroads.
Washington and London have often made the claim that they did know
the full extent of the horror being perpetrated by the Nazis until
the very end of the war when extermination centers such as at
Auschwitz and Treblinka were liberated – by the Soviet Red Army, it
should be noted too.
However,
what the latest release of UN Holocaust files shows is that
Washington and London were indeed well aware of the Nazi Final
Solution in which millions of European Jews and Slavic people were
being systematically worked to death or exterminated in gas chambers.
So the question again is: why did the US and Britain not direct more
of their aerial bombing campaign to destroy the Nazi infrastructure?
One
possible answer is that these Western allies had a callous disregard
for the Nazi victims. Washington and London establishments were
themselves accused of harboring antisemitic prejudices, as can be
seen from the scandals when both these governments spurned thousands
of European Jewish refugees during the Second World War, in effect
sending many of them to their deaths under the Nazi regime.
Not
excluding the above factor of Western racist insouciance, there is a
second more disturbing factor. That the Western governments, or at
least powerful sections, were loath to hamper the Nazi war effort
against the Soviet Union. Notwithstanding that the Soviet Union was a
nominal «ally» of the West for the defeat of Nazi Germany.
This
perspective harks to a radically different conception of the Second
World War in contrast to that narrated in official Western versions.
In this alternative historical account, the rise of the Nazi Third
Reich was deliberately fomented by American and British rulers as a
bulwark in Europe against the spread of communism. Adolf Hitler’s
rabid anti-Semitism was matched only by his detest of Marxism and the
Slavic people of the Soviet Union. In the Nazi ideology, they were
all «Untermenschen» (subhumans) to be exterminated in a «Final
Solution».
So,
when Nazi Germany was attacking the Soviet Union and carrying out its
Final Solution from June 1941 until late 1944, little wonder then
that the US and Britain showed a curious reluctance to commit their
military forces fully to open up a Western Front. The Western allies
were evidently content to see the Nazi war machine doing what it was
originally intended to do: to destroy the primary enemy to Western
capitalism as represented by the Soviet Union. This is not to say
that all American and British political leaders shared or were even
aware of this tacit strategic vision. Leaders like President Franklin
Roosevelt and Prime Minister Winston Churchill appeared to be
genuinely committed to defeating Nazi Germany. Nevertheless, their
individual views must be set against a background of systematic
collusion between powerful Western corporate interests and Nazi
Germany.
As
American author David Talbot documented in
his book, The Devil’s Chessboard: Allen Dulles, the CIA and the
Rise of America’s Secret Government (2015), there were massive
financial links between Wall Street and the Third Reich, going back
several years before the outbreak of the Second World War.
Allen
Dulles, who worked for the Wall Street law firm Sullivan and Cromwell
and who later headed up the American Central Intelligence Agency, was
a key player in the linkage between US capital and German industry.
American industrial giants, such as Ford, GM, ITT and Du Pont were
invested heavily in German industrial counterparts like IG Farben
(manufacturer of Zyklon B, the poisonous gas used in the Holocaust),
Krupp Steel and Daimler. American capital, as well as British, was
thus integrated into the Nazi war machine and the latter’s
dependence on the system of slave labor as provided by the Final
Solution.
This
would explain why the Western allies did so little to disrupt the
Nazi infrastructure with their undoubted formidable aerial bombing
capacity. Far more damning than mere inertia or indifference owing to
racist prejudice towards the Nazi victims, what emerges is that the
Americans and British capitalist elite were invested in the Third
Reich. Mainly for the purpose of eliminating the Soviet Union and any
kind of genuinely socialist global movement. Bombing Nazi
infrastructure would have been tantamount to deleting Western assets.
To
this end, as the war was drawing to a close and the Soviet Union
looked poised to roll up the Third Reich singlehandedly, the
Americans and British belatedly stepped up their war efforts from
western and southern Europe. The goal was one of salvaging Western
assets remaining in the Nazi regime. Allen Dulles, the director of
the-soon-to-be-formed American Central Intelligence Agency,
extricated top Nazis and their gold looted from Europe in secret
surrender deals known as Operation Sunrise. Britain’s military
intelligence MI6 was also involved in the clandestine American effort
to salvage Nazi assets via ratlines. The bad faith on display to the
Soviet «allies» heralded the chill of the ensuing Cold War that
immediately followed the Second World War.
Significant
and damning testimony of what was going down was given recently in a
BBC interview by
Ben Ferencz, the most senior surviving US prosecutor from the
Nuremberg trials. At age 98, Ferencz was still able to lucidly recall
how scores of Nazi war criminals were let off the hook by the
American and British authorities. Ferencz cited US General George
Patton who remarked just before the final surrender of the Third
Reich in early May 1945, as saying: «We’re fighting the wrong
enemy». Patton’s candid expression of deeper animosity towards the
Soviet Union than towards Nazi Germany was consistent with how the US
and British ruling class had been colluding with Hitler’s Third
Reich in a geo-strategic war against the Soviet Union and worker-led
socialist movements arising across Europe and America.
In
other words, the Cold War which the US and Britain embarked on after
1945 was but a continuation of hostile policy towards Moscow that was
already underway well before the Second World War erupted in 1939 in
the form of a build up of Nazi Germany. For various reasons, it
became expedient for the Western powers to liquidate the Nazi war
machine, along with the Soviet Union. But as can be seen, the Western
assets residing in the Nazi machine were recycled into American and
British Cold War posture against the Soviet Union. It is a truly
damning legacy that American and British military intelligence
agencies were consolidated and financed by Nazi crimes.
The
recent release of UN Holocaust files – in spite of American and
British prevarication over many years – add more evidence to the
historical analysis that these Western powers were deeply complicit
in the monumental crimes of the Nazi Third Reich. They knew about
these crimes because they had helped facilitate them. And the
complicity stemmed from Western hostility towards Russia as a
perceived geopolitical rival.
This
is not a mere historical academic exercise. Western complicity with
Nazi Germany also finds a corollary in the present-day ongoing
hostility from Washington, Britain and their NATO allies towards
Moscow. The relentless build up of NATO offensive forces around
Russia’s borders, the endless Russophobia in Western propagandistic
news media, the economic blockade in the form of sanctions based on
tenuous claims, are all deeply rooted in history.
The
West’s Cold War towards Moscow preceded the Second World War,
continued after the defeat of Nazi Germany and persists to this day
regardless of the fact that the Soviet Union no longer exists. Why?
Because Russia is a perceived rival to Anglo-American capitalist
hegemony, as is China or any other emerging power that undermines
that desired unipolar hegemony.
American-British
collusion with Nazi Germany finds its modern-day manifestation in
NATO collusion with the neo-Nazi regime in Ukraine and jihadist
terror groups dispatched in proxy wars against Russian interests in
Syria and elsewhere. The players may change over time, but the root
pathology is American-British capitalism and its hegemonic addiction.
The
never-ending Cold War will only end when Anglo-American capitalism is
finally defeated and replaced by a genuinely more democratic system.
