With the MSM screaming all the way.

[Ptarmigan]

I don't want to think about how MSM would reporting during and after World War II. I am not surprised that thousands of Americans were killed after the war ended. Many Nazis refused to surrender. Also, many Nazis fled Europe to either Middle East or South America. In Iraq, we have caught most of the Baathist leaders.

A little known story.
I like the thinking behind the solution.

[ml1954]

This will never, ever make it into the MSM. But thanks for the great post. Missed North on Hannity. I've been wondering about this for awhile.

In the liberal fantasy world, wars, revolutions and the like are failures if not resolved one way or the other in about 24 hours.

Non-revisionist history bump

[Alouette]

The "occupation" and "de-nazification" of postwar Germany and Japan took over 30 years to complete.

What's more, the "embedded" media of WW2 were patriots (like Ernie Pyle and Bill Mauldin) not the treasonous scumbags of today.

[MikeA]

And so far we've suffered fewer combat deaths than these 1000+ killed in post war Germany. Fewer than 900 of the 1100 the MSM likes to harp on are combat casualties. The rest are accidents and illness. Leave it to the deceit-drenched media to lump them all together to come up with the rabble rousing 1000 killed benchmark so as to turn passions against the war.

Of of the many WWII pictures I saw, some of them had a jeep with a pole mounted on the front bumper. I at first thought it was a towbar, but was told it was because the Germans strung piano wire across the road to try and decapitate our soldiers, after the war was over. I can't find any numbers on how well this worked for the Germans, but estimates were at least two dozen KIA. Most of the modified jeeps appear in 1945 and after.

Thank God for W! In 60 years our kids will be able to read about a courageous American President that saved the world.

It is time to get real ugly. It is time to be brutal and make our actions deadly and clear. There is not one corner of this planet that is not media savvy anymore so playing games will not do any good.

Our traitor msm emboldens thse animals. Surprise, we did not send the msm to fight the war. Let them play the tape of the Marine on the Arab press. I bet the people who want peace are relieved to see we mean business. They too have suffered from these animals.

I was so proud of our soldiers when they got on there knees in repect to that mosque in the beginning of the war. I also support the Marine for his actions. Keep up the pressure, dogs!

Semper Fi Red in a blue state!

This little tidbit ran in our local paper over the weekend... German POWs in the USA

[Dont_Tread_On_Me_888]

"It wasn't pretty," said North. "There were no trials - nobody was brought before tribunals or anything like that. The German army just went out and took care of it. And the killing stopped."

I may add the following:

We firebombed Japan and the fighting eventually stopped.

We nuked Japan and the fighting stopped a lot quicker.

We firebombed Dresden and the fighting eventually stopped.

In Japan and Germany, we did not give a damn about the enemy "fighting from religious bunkers". Our tropps blasted the bunkers--be they religious or not.

We fought war during World War II like a war. We did not send young soldiers into urban areas to do street-to-street fighting until we LEVELED the whole city with massed artillery and carpet bombing.

We fight today like we are playing a G rated video game, while the enemy plays with R rated graphic violence.

Only when the horrors of war are brought to the enemy does the enemy break. Political correct "warfare" (or gamesmanship like it is today) will NEVER end the fighting. The only way to end the fighting is to make war so horrific for the enemy that they never want to wage war again, like Japan and Germany feel today 50 years later.

I'm gonna get flamed for this but most of this is bogus. There were nazi terrorists in post war Germany. They killed nowhere near 1,000 GIs. Their targets were mostly infrastructure and locals whose deaths could be used to frighten the population from cooperating. Adenauer was running nothin in 46 or 47. The decision on reconstituting Germany had not been finalized. The idea that we armed the Wehrmacht and SS is preposterous. The Russians would have gone nuts, the Brits too. In fact for even making the suggestion Patton was stripped of Third Army command

How was the insurgency quelled? Summary executions, property confiscations, and arbitrary imprisonments by Allied forces. The History Channel did a two hour on this, with film of the executions, about six months ago. There's a thread on the board about the show. Ollie and Limbacher need a fact checker. Flame Away!

[PAR35]

I think Col. North forgot to tell the truth on this one.

The Bi-zone wasn't even established until 1947, the Federal Republic was constituted in 1949, and the Wehrmacht wasn't formed until 1950. So there was no German government or Wehrmacht to turn to in 1945-46.

As for Konrad Adenauer, in 1945 the British sacked him as mayor of Colonge. In 1946 he served in the state legislature of NordRhein then NordRhein - Westfalia after those entities were constituted (British, not American zone, by the way).

Well with the new media, we are killing the MSM too. Their age has passed. May a new day dawn.

[ApesForEvolution]

So, how did the U.S. eventually quell the violence?

"General Eisenhower went to [interim German leader] Konrad Adenauer, the guy we hand-picked to run the new government," said North. "And he told him, 'You either stop this or we'll get a new guy to run this country.'"

Adenauer prompty contacted the Wermacht and told them to take care of the problem at all costs, using former SS troops if necessary.


"It wasn't pretty," said North. "There were no trials - nobody was brought before tribunals or anything like that. The German army just went out and took care of it. And the killing stopped."

Added North, "I think that's probably what's going to happen in Iraq."

If Olly runs for President, I'd have to take a hard look at his political values...I sure like the guy.

[XJarhead]

As others have pointed out, North's story is just bogus. Sounds to me like Ollie got an e-mail from someone, and swallowed it whole without checking the facts. There weren't 1000 U.S. soldiers and dependants killed by "German terrorists" in the year following the war, nor was there a German army that could have suppressed them.
