Well, we had Saint FDR (peace be upon him, heavenly chorus in background, white shining light...) who just HAD to save his Buddy Uncle Joe Stalin, after all.
Birds of a feather...
Patton had their number. Thats why he was killed.
100% he was assassinated. He knew exactly what was what.
My question is: How involved was Eisenhower in the plot?
“...How involved was Eisenhower in the plot?...”
Interesting... I’d never thought of it from that perspective. I’d LOVE to believe he wasn’t involved at all (and my gut instinct says he wasn’t), but the realities of politics and what people will do to stay in power are disgusting.
I’d be inclined to say it was less Eisenhower and MORE of the leftover communist a-holes from the Roosevelt administration that Truman inherited.
But again, anything is possible. Sadly.
