I believe this is the anniversary of the day that Hitler invaded the Soviet Union in 1941. By a strange coincidence, it is also the anniversary of the day that the entire political left in America switched from demanding American neutrality to demanding that America get into World War II.
Within a few days of Hitler’s attack on the USSR, the United States broke off diplomatic relations with Germany.
KGB files that were opened when the USSR collapsed showed that Communist infiltration into the Roosevelt State Department went deeper than even Senator McCarthy suspected. But, as Joe Sobran pointed out, even the parts of the Roosevelt State Department who were not Communists never made single statement that Stalin would not have approved of.
One of the unsung heroes of the American left was the daughter of the American ambassador to Berlin in the early 1930s. She was a fanatical Stalinist and her letters on the subject are a matter of record.
In the early 1930s, the only major power that Hitler threatened was the USSR. It was a major accomplishment to change the situation so that the West destroyed Hitler and gave a third of the world to Stalin and Mao.
The daughter of the American ambassador had a role in that process. She gave sex to German officers for information and planted information where needed.
When you are worshipping The Greatest Generation for this wonderful achievement, don’t forget this woman, who had more to do with ‘Saving the World’ than any hundred Medal of Honor winners in World War II.
