If Todays Press covered the “Battle of the bulge”

This just in, We have just received film footage from our contacts with Belgian insurgents fighting against the United States occupation. The footage is of reprisals taken against US troops in the town of ‘Malmedy”. US Officials insist that what they are calling the “Massacre” of US troops is a result of war crimes committed by German Troops under the command of SS-Standartenführer Joachim Peiper.

Our correspondents in Belgium recently caught up with Standartenführer Joachim Peiper at his field encampment in Belgium and he had this to say in response to charges by the US Government:

“You should recognize that after the battles of Normandy my unit was composed mainly of young, fanatical soldiers. A good deal of them had lost their parents, their sisters and brothers during the bombing. They had seen for themselves in Köln thousands of mangled corpses after a terror raid had passed. Their hatred for the enemy was such; I swear it and I could not always keep it under control."

The Standartenführer is saying what has become a theme in public opinion across the continent since what many are now calling the unecessarily Bloody Normandy campaign, that US excesses in the war are the source of the anger against the US Occupation in much of Europe.

While the Official US Government line continues to say that its winning the battle in Europe, it would seem that the recent upswing in American losses since its initial easy win in Normandy during the summer, have resulted in a military and political quagmire that will be very difficult to extract itself from. Polls taken recently indicate that many in the US say that we are in fact, losing the war in Europe and wish to see a change in strategy from the distant and disconnected three term president. As Secretary of War Stimson continues to push for more troops to deal with the Belgian rebellion, very little seems to stem the tide of anger against the Americans as they cross the Belgium countryside. Nearly every town is supporting the insurgents with snipers and on occasion, tanks provided from their cultural and traditional neighbors in Germany.

Opposition party leaders in this country say that our continued presence in Europe will only create more leaders like SS-Standartenführer Joachim Peiper. While they deplore the methods of the SS, Opposition leaders point out that the SS often gains the support of the local populace by public works, such as day care centers, improved public works and factory jobs to improve the lot of the Germanic people. "We may not agree with their choice in leadership, but Herr Hitler is more popular in many parts ofthe world than our own President. That is something our President needs to understand if he is to get the support of the people in this country or in Europe. It goes without saying that there are many people who are willing to support Herr Hitler to the death, and I doubt very much that you can find that sort of support for the President anywhere in the world" said the Leader of the House opposition party.

The founder of this network had this to say recently about the war in Europe:

“Germany didn’t attack us. I don’t know why the hell we are fighting all the way over there when the real fight is in Hawaii! They say Hitler is an evil man who treats people badly, but we had him bottled up in Europe. I was in Europe before The President made us so hated over there by destroying most of it, I was over there for the Olympics. I didn’t see anyone mistreated, I didn’t see any skinny people in camps, from what I saw, things looked like they ran pretty good, I might even say that they ran a damn sight better than things are now. You know when this thing got started, the President didn’t waste any time on going to Congress and ramming through a declaration of war on the emotions of the moment. It was a damn silly thing to do, on December 8th I still hadn’t made up my mind yet just what side I was on. I wanted time to think about it with a clear head, not take a knee jerk reaction to the whole thing”.

We'll be right back after this commercial break with an interview with US General MacArthur who has recently had very unkind things to say about the US Military Strategy of "Europe First".
