@@chaddy2409 He did actually. What the Britbongs fail to realize is that in mid-late 1943 (between battles of Stalingrad and Kursk) the German leadership realized the war in Europe could not be won. Thus from that moment on the strategy was formulated to hold on as long as possible while the Reich relocated personnel and materials to new locations in South America and Antarctica. The Wehrmacht also functionally ran out of fuel and could only support about 1/2 of its former capacity. So the Blitzkrieg tactics changed to classic defensive positions. Of course none of this is something the Britbongs would understand. They just sat on their island cheering on the communists as they swept Europe and lobbed bombs at civilians. They operate on a very low level of vibration as subjects to the cabal they are not meant to think, but blindly serve. Indeed when you tell them what is common knowledge that Hitler did not kill himself and all those UFOs you see swooshing about belong to the Nazis, they get really mad. As useful drones they are conditioned to love the lies they have been fed. I wouldn't be surprised if they were indeed ignorant enough to think assassinating Hitler was a bad strategy and thus called it off.

I don’t think he killed himself. And no one wanted to be caught by the Russians. So knowing the high tech programs he worked on,I wouldn’t doubt that he had a fake identity(s) ready to go when the time came. And slipped away into obscurity somewhere. Although the “bell” crash incident that happens in kecksberg Pennsylvania in late 40’s or early 50’s. I can’t remember. Was supposedly the German project “de-Glock” that he was in charge of. Witnesses saw it in Germany they found the facility and test area that housed it but it was gone. Just like him. They are not sure it the “bell” was a time traveling device or what. It was never found then something identical crashed out the sky in Pennsylvania before it crashed it made a few turns or maneuvers that a meteorite or space debris doesn’t do. Also the military was on scene almost within the hour, considering the remoteness of this part of Pennsylvania that’s not just a coincidence, it’s odd. All the witness descriptions of the bell in Pennsylvania resemble the project he was working on at wars endTheirs a museum in kecksburg Pennsylvania wheee it happened.

Bang on! Great stuff, Mark. Kammler is like a submarine. Not a sieg heiling public figure, but a big shot mover and shaker. His sweeping under the rug is pretty damning. I expect he lived long and comfortably to perish at a ripe old age. Bearded in Bariloche, maybe. Curious the Jews never caught up with him. Eichmann was a bureaucrat. Kammler was a foundation stone. There was the guy with the saucer tech. As the war reached it's climax, Kammler confessed to Speer that he was headed underground. There may have been an invite to come along. He should taken the opportunity. He did 20 years in Spandau.

This caught my attention as well. In some respects, I think it does make sense. After the tide was turning in favour of the Allies, his erratic behaviour arguably meant that he was more destructive to the Nazi war machine than some of the potentially more capable "lieutenants" waiting in the wings to take over. Also by this stage, I would suspect that years of Allied intelligence effort had been spent understanding Hitler's behaviour. For example he was arguably a very poor strategist. Perhaps it is always better to know your enemy and especially his weaknesses? I suspect that if there was an overwhelming concensus between Allied military advisors to assassinate Hitler, they probably would have. Maybe better to target his top Nazi generals instead? However, this was not straightforward. This was attempted. I believe the only operation, backed by the British and exiled Czech government, to kill a top Nazi was Anthropoid. Although it resulted in the assassination of Heydrich, this arguably backfired as hundreds of Czech's were executed in reprisal. As Mark mentioned in this video, the later Operation Foxley to assassinate Hitler was cancelled. If he had been assassinated, not only could a more capable strategist have taken control but the German people would have no doubt viewed Hitler as a martyr and it may have strengthened their resolve fight plus triggered goodness knows what atrocious retribution?

Sounds like a good idea , But Think of the Propaganda Coup that would have happened if they had killed Hitler . The effects on Germany would have been enormous . And with this massive allied war machine already knocking on Germany's door , I think who ever took over would most likely want to come to terms . Just another "what if " in the annals of history.

The one question that always bugs me is: How suspicious if at all were the Germans of the breaking of code of their Enigma machines? I would have thought that the hasty build-up of defensive positions at Kursk might have at least alerted them.
@nathankeel43084 жыл бұрын
Is was broken many times. They would change the cryptography of the letters and numbers then. Whenever they suspected it was compromised. For example a U-boat was captured, the Germans didn't know, so the allies could listen in on some U-boat and Kriegsmarine communications. Enigma messages were compartmentalized on a need to know basis. So nazi 1 wouldn't understand nazi 2's Enigma communication unless nazi 1 had a need to know. For example, they are both on the same missions or cooperation between army and luftwaffe, etc
@loading91103 жыл бұрын
A bit late too the party. But reports would suggest if they were they didn't do a lot about it. In North Africa in the arse end of no where over looking nothing but sand and sky the Germans had an outpost that reported in every morning. They would say the same thing using an enigma machine "Nothing to report". It was that Outpost that allowed the allied forces to know what the Enigma codes were that day because they knew what that message said everyday.

After the war a German general said: whenever we attacked, it was an allied strong point, whenever we were attacked, it was at our weak point. The allies always said that they had a spy in the OKW. They likely did, but Enigma ('Ultra') was the real treasure box of intel. The French underground before Overlord, for example, were told to destroy telephone lines, to force German military comms onto radio which could be intercepted.
