In the Fangs of the Beast

In this story I have disclosed some of the dark machinations in the Fuhrer's mind when he unleashed the dogs of war in bloody cruelties without conscience. I have tried to reveal uniquely German predispositions or mindsets, if you will, that caused Germans to accept Hitler's leadership. For it was they, the German people, the Volkish Bevolkerung who believed, and it was true, that the Versailles Treaty imposed merciless reparations upon the German people that affected them in complex ways-to annihilate their nationhood, their sovereign compacity forever to make wat. Yet while it virtually destroyed the Kaiserreich of Post WWI and, tructh to tell, said many times, set the stage for Hitler's popularity. The rise of national Socialism, the Nazi Party and WWII the Treaty shoes how mistaken and despotic revenge can be. Christian Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Col. Von Stauffenberg did not want to destroy the German people. They schemed to kill the diabolical fiend Adolph Hitler.
