FINAL WARNING: Setting the Stage for World War II
An American General, Albert C. Wedemeyer, was convinced that
Russia was the only winner of World War II. He said: “Stalin was intent
on creating favorable conditions for the realization of Communist aims
throughout the Balkans and Western Europe. He emerged as the only
winner of the War. We insured the emergence of a more hostile,
menacing predatory power than Nazi Germany, one which has
enslaved more people than we liberated.”
Gen. George S. Patton wanted to retire because he planned on being
able to speak his mind about America being “soft on Communism.”
However, before resigning his Commission, he died after an
automobile accident forced him to be hospitalized. In 1979, Douglas
Bazata, a former Secret Service agent for the Office of Strategic
Services (OSS, the predecessor of the CIA) revealed that he was
ordered by the Director ‘Wild Bill’ Donovan to kill Patton in 1944.
Although he didn’t, he knows who did, and said that Patton was killed
with cyanide at the hospital he was taken to after the accident.

from a Detroit hospital, he died of a heart attack.

was appointed Secretary of the Navy in 1944, then the Secretary of
Defense in 1947, till Truman asked him to resign in 1949. After the War,
he became dedicated to destroying Communism, because it seemed
as though the United States was constantly yielding to them. Truman
believed Forrestal was under a lot of mental stress, and had him
admitted to the U.S. Naval Hospital at Bethesda, Maryland.
His personal diaries, consisting of 15 loose-leaf binders, about 3,000
pages, were removed from his office at the Pentagon, and held at the
White House. Forrestal had told a friend that he was being followed,
and that his phone was tapped. He noticed the beginnings of the
Korean War, fifteen months before it actually started.
Once he was in the hospital, he was allowed no visitors. On May 22,
