The newly unearthed diaries of a colourful assassin for the wartime Office of Strategic Services (OSS), the forerunner of the CIA, reveal that American spy chiefs wanted Patton dead because he was threatening to expose allied collusion with Russians that cost American lives.
'We've got a terrible situation with this great patriot, he's out of control and we must save him from himself'.
The OSS head General did not trust Patton
The death of General Patton in December 1945, is one of the enduring mysteries of the war era. Although he had suffered serious injuries in a car crash in Manheim, he was thought to be recovering and was on the verge of flying home.
But after a decade-long investigation, military historian Robert Wilcox claims that OSS head General "Wild Bill" Donovan ordered a highly decorated marksman called Douglas Bazata to silence Patton, who gloried in the nickname "Old Blood and Guts".
His book, "Target Patton", contains interviews with Mr Bazata, who died in 1999, and extracts from his diaries, detailing how he staged the car crash by getting a troop truck to plough into Patton's Cadillac and then shot the general with a low-velocity projectile, which broke his neck while his fellow passengers escaped without a scratch.
Mr Bazata also suggested that when Patton began to recover from his injuries, US officials turned a blind eye as agents of the NKVD, the forerunner of the KGB, poisoned the general.
Mr Wilcox told The Sunday Telegraph that when he spoke to Mr Bazata: "He was struggling with himself, all these killings he had done. He confessed to me that he had caused the accident, that he was ordered to do so by Wild Bill Donovan.
"Donovan told him: 'We've got a terrible situation with

Truman would have been less sympathetic to the commies than FDR was.
Truman was an interesting character himself. That is another discussion.
Well, it's already been established on this thread that Oliver Stone didn't make it, so odds are, it is.
Cuz I can think of lots of movies that Oliver Stone didn't make that are good.
Hmmmm...there seems to be a pattern here. ;-)
My Great Grandfather was a successful business man and a land and water speculator in Eastern Utah and Western Colorado, Green River Area, didn’t help we are all broke, a lie in some cases.
With the masses kept in the dark . . .
the ‘play’ grinds on towards the worst horrors the world has ever known or ever will know.
That is why we are here isn’t it? You either play or stand drooling like the groundings.
Thanks for your extensive list of NWO references. No surprise...tracking a plot that is centuries old, whose players have no boundaries. But guess what? At least Patton went quail or pheasant hunting the morning of the accident before they said “you gotta go”....
They were of the same school. The Old School.
Thankfully,
THE RETURN OF THE KING
IS THAT MUCH CLOSER.
PRAISE GOD.
INDEED.
WALK CLOSE TO GOD
. . . the only hope . . . the only answer.
Tin foil alert...
From Fossil:
“We have had others, but those were like the Arkincides of recent times.
No, I do not believe that Vince Foster shot himself in Ft. Marcy Park.”
From the article:
“The scenario sounds far fetched but Mr Wilcox has assembled a compelling case that US officials had something to hide. At least five documents relating to the car accident have been removed from US archives.
The driver of the truck was whisked away to London before he could be questioned and no autopsy was performed on Patton’s body.”
Also reminds me of all the shenanigans surrounding Foster and Ron Brown.
Agreed: Eisenhower won the war in spite of pulling in spite of riding the brake and calling troops to back up. Read The Last 100 Days and then we can talk...FDR was dead before the war ended. Actually FDR, Moussolini and Hitler died within a month of eachother.
In about 1975 I read a book checked out for the CU library that spoke of how FDR’d administration knew that Pearl Harbor was to be attacked. There was enough credibilty to make me always question traditional history lessons.
I first heard of the the ideal of Patton being assassinated sometime after being stationed at Ft. Knox in 1977 so it isn’t exactly a new idea.
History is written by the winning survivors so there is always another side that isn’t getting told.
How could this guy Bazata assist the 9/11 Commission if he died two years ago in 1999?
These are exciting times. The only thing that makes sense is Prophecy Fulfilled.
It's in here:
Leftists in the US government at that time hated Patton no doubt.
Truman was probably even angry with him. But Patton died before he would be disciplined even more than Eisenhower did for his honest opinion about things.
Eventually they couldn’t stop the anti-Communist sentiment as the GOP got veto proof power in Congress in 1946 and Churchill made his “Iron Curtain” speech.
Even Truman had to project anti-Communism for political reasons even though his liberal advisors hated to do so.
As for deliberately killing Patton, the Soviet NKVD-KGB would definitely have wanted to do it. Whether they actually did it is pure speculation.
They tried to kill the Pope in 1981, other attacks on opponents were carried out in London and lest we forget Vlad Putin has continued the tradition with his pelonium in recent years.
It does make you wonder??????????
Careful with that last line. That’s the exact argument that Holocaust revisionists use.
The left would leave truth behind as they rewrite history.
It was Stalin who insisted that all Russia refer to the Nazis as fascists. He didn't want anyone to think he was at war with "brother socialists".
Today, the left has convinced many that the Nazis were right wingers in the Western since and not a spinoff of Communism (nationalist rather than worldwide). "Communist" is too harsh. They are "socialists", "progressives", "liberals", "greens".

The "complications" was pneumonia.
