On January 10, 1941, Franklin Roosevelt introduces the lend-lease program to Congress. The plan was intended to help Britain beat back Hitler’s advance while keeping America only indirectly involved in World War II.
As Roosevelt addressed Congress, the Battle of Britain was in its full destructive swing and Hitler seemed on the verge of invading Great Britain. The cash-strapped Brits desperately needed airplanes, tanks and ships to fight Hitler’s imminent invasion. For months, Britain’s prime minister, Winston Churchill, had begged Roosevelt for help, but the president was committed to abiding by Americans’ wishes to stay out of another bloody world war.
The lend-lease program provided for military aid to any country whose defense was vital to the security of the United States. The plan thus gave Roosevelt the power to lend arms to Britain with the understanding that, after the war, America would be paid back in kind. Congress overwhelmingly accepted the plan, which only staunch isolationists opposed. Roosevelt’s program enabled the U.S. military to prepare for the growing threat of Japan on its Pacific flank while helping Britain to contain Hitler across the Atlantic, as it permitted aid to Europe without committing American troops that might be needed in a Pacific war. Even though Roosevelt’s plan did not require immediate repayment, the United States commandeered what was left of Britain’s gold reserves and overseas investments to help pay for the increased defense production.
With the bombing of Pearl Harbor in December 1941, Japan forced the entry of the United States into the war. Roosevelt then recognized the strategic advantage of also supplying the Soviet Union with arms under lend-lease in order to draw Hitler’s resources away from Western Europe. This gave the United States a better chance at fighting a war on two fronts while planning for an invasion to liberate Europe. Roosevelt, mindful of the inherent conflict between American democracy and Soviet communism, counted on using U.S. military aid to the Soviet Union as a bargaining chip in post-war diplomatic relations.
By the end of the war the United States had given more than $50 billion in armaments and financial support to Britain, the U.S.S.R. and 37 other countries. The lend-lease program laid a foundation for the post-war Marshall Plan, which provided aid to European nations to help rebuild their economies after two devastating world wars.

That time Russia played the part now played by Ukranus.
Ukraine is going to rape and conquer half a continent?
Hey admin?
The Jewish tunnel story in Brooklyn is hilarious.
Apparently, a bunch of horny young Jews , tunneled from the chabad over to the womens section..
….”the synagogue’s leaders closed the women’s section of the synagogue, where the tunnel connected to the building,”….
..where they found piles of semen stained paper towels near a bunch of peep holes into the womans restrooms and showers.
Pretty sure it’s propaganda, they already have a full wiki page establishing the narrative
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_synagogue_tunnels_incident
Funny how a wikipedia page was created on the 9th just hours after the alleged incident.
Seems they do not want this one to get away from them.
Which suggests something far more sinister occured and is being covered up with this bullshit story.
More likely?
They dug the chamber to remove the remains of sacrificed animals so as to not bring blood guilt upon those “people” who sacrificed the little lambs.
Britain got a pittance, while the Bolshevik asset FDR took the very food from American families tables, along with entire factories , billions in military equipment/arms, luxury items including expensive chocolates and womens clothes ,and forced manufactures to turn over secret tech, while the Department of Treasury provided Stalin with US Federal Reserve plates so he could print his own American fiat money, not to mention providing the communists with the uranium needed to build their own nuclear bomb.
If the US government hadn’t shoveled most of American productivity into the Soviet Union during their war with Germany, communism would have been DOA., not to mention the Bolshevik controlled cockroaches in the Roosevelt administration , including Eisenhower, created communist China , too, by stabbing ally Gen. Chiang Kai-shek in the back and funding, supplying and training Mao Zedongs forces to defeat Chinese nationalism.
Uncle Shlomo gave the world Communism, then Shlomos puppetmasters made trillions in the fake war to defeat it…those damn dominoes…reeeee
If the greatest generation were not great, but instead the stupidest generation, then Roosevelt and his entire administrations, including joint chief of staff would have been hung for treason.
Two of the most disturbing history books on WWII concerning the role of the US government, you’ll ever read.
From Major Jordans Diaries
by George Racey Jordan
My reason for writing this book is very simple: I would like to keep the record straight. I want to put in permanent form. the full story of my experiences as a Lend-Lease expediter and liaison officer with the Russians during the war, when I served for two crucial years, from May 1942 to Lune 1944, both at Newark Airport and at the big air base at Great Falls, Montana.
I went into the Army as a businessman in my forties and a veteran of World War I. From the first, as my story shows, I worked wholeheartedly on behalf of the Russians because, like everyone else, I considered it my duty to do so. That they were satisfied with my efforts is indicated by the fact that it was Colonel Kotikov, head of the Russian mission at Great Falls, who requested my promotion to Major.
But the tremendous volume of Lend-Lease material going through under “diplomatic immunity,” the infiltration of SOviet agents through the Pipeline, the shipments of non- supplies and even military secrets, were more than I could stomach. I finally protested through proper channels, first in Great Falls, and then in Washington; nothing happened. This was in 1944, while I was still in the Army.

Stalin’s War: A New History of World War II
Sean McMeekin
prize-winning historian reveals how Stalin—not Hitler—was the animating force of World War II in this major new history.
World War II endures in the popular imagination as a heroic struggle between good and evil, with villainous Hitler driving its events. But Hitler was not in power when the conflict erupted in Asia—and he was certainly dead before it ended. His armies did not fight in multiple theaters, his empire did not span the Eurasian continent, and he did not inherit any of the spoils of war. That central role belonged to Joseph Stalin. The Second World War was not Hitler’s war; it was Stalin’s war.
Drawing on ambitious new research in Soviet, European, and US archives, Stalin’s War revolutionizes our understanding of this global conflict by moving its epicenter to the east. Hitler’s genocidal ambition may have helped unleash Armageddon, but as McMeekin shows, the war which emerged in Europe in September 1939 was the one Stalin wanted, not Hitler. So, too, did the Pacific war of 1941–1945 fulfill Stalin’s goal of unleashing a devastating war of attrition between Japan and the “Anglo-Saxon” capitalist powers he viewed as his ultimate adversary.
McMeekin also reveals the extent to which Soviet Communism was rescued by the US and Britain’s self-defeating strategic moves, beginning with Lend-Lease aid, as American and British supply boards agreed almost blindly to every Soviet demand. Stalin’s war machine, McMeekin shows, was substantially reliant on American materiél from warplanes, tanks, trucks, jeeps, motorcycles, fuel, ammunition, and explosives, to industrial inputs and technology transfer, to the foodstuffs which fed the Red Army.
This unreciprocated American generosity gave Stalin’s armies the mobile striking power to conquer most of Eurasia, from Berlin to Beijing, for Communism.
A groundbreaking reassessment of the Second World War, Stalin’s War is essential reading for anyone looking to understand the current world order.

^ this. i was gonne mention it but ya beat me to it.
Flash, you sound like McCarthy and Robert Welch. BTW they were right except that they really didn’t understand how really big the Communist Conspiracy was.
Because neither understood or wouldn’t admit that it wasn’t a ideological issue, but one of tribal power through chaos created control, which was also designed to generate mega wealth for those pulling the war for profit strings and this required the ” ideological ” opposition they so craftily created….but muh capitalism….reeeee
When Senator McCarthy began his campaign against traitors and enemy agents in American armed forces and government, the colonel [in the CIA] took it upon himself to warn the Senator that he drastically underestimated the power of our domestic enemies and would be ruined, if he persisted in annoying them . McCarthy, who may have doubted the estimate of the forces covertly arrayed against him, replied, “No the America people will never let me down.”

“I do not believe that this primal difference between gentile and Jew is reconcilable. There will be irritation between us as long as we are in intimate contact. For nature and constitution and vision divide us from all of you forever . . . I have no doubt that when Germany and England and America will long have lost their present identity or name or purpose, we shall still be strong in ours . . . We have joined your capitalistic world in deliberate emulation and rivalry: yet Jewish socialism and Jewish socialists are the banner bearers of the world’s “armies of liberation.” . . . But you feel our disruptive difference most keenly, most resentfully, in our deliberate efforts to change your social system. Seen in the dazzling lights of your desires and needs our ideal is repellently morose . . . Because your chief institution is the social structure itself, it is in this that we are most manifestly destroyers. We Jews, we, the destroyers, will remain the destroyers for ever. Nothing that you will do will meet our needs and demands.”

“The drive of the Rockefellers and their allies is to create a one-world government combining supercapitalism and Communism under the same tent, all under their control. … Do I mean conspiracy? Yes I do. I am convinced there is such a plot, international in scope, generations old in planning, and incredibly evil in intent.”

“The Nazis came to power in Germany on 1933, at time when its economy was in total collapse, with ruinous war-reparation obligations and zero prospects for foreign investment or credit. Yet through an independent monetary policy of sovereign credit and a full-employment works program, the Third Reich was able to turn a bankrupt Germany, stripped of overseas colonies it could exploit, into the strongest economy in Europe within four years, even before armament spending began. “

“ World War II ended the “depression.” The same Bankers who in the early 30’s had no loans for peacetime houses,food and clothing, suddenly had unlimited billions to lend for Army barracks, K-rations and uniforms! A nation that in 1934 couldn’t produce food for sale, suddenly could produce bombs to send free to Germany and Japan!… Germany issued debt-free and interest-free money from 1935 and on, accounting for its startling rise from the depression to a world power in 5 years. Germany financed its entire government and war operation from 1935 to 1945 without gold and without debt, and it took the whole Capitalist and Communist world to destroy the
German power over Europe and bring Europe back under the heel of the Bankers. Such history of money does not even appear in the textbooks of public (government) schools today. ”

Why shooting Germans was US Treasury business was not
obvious. Nonetheless, that this was considered Treasury business
by summer 1944 is clear in the historical record. Somehow, in the
aftermath of the Allied landings at Normandy, which brought the
prospect of Germany’s final defeat in sight, a long-running policy
discussion in the Treasury on how to administer the German
economy after the war morphed into an open-ended revenge
fantasy. During the same meeting at which he and White spoke of
death quotas for captured Germans, Morgenthau also proposed “the
complete shut-down of the Ruhr [industrial area]” in terms clearly
designed to inflict maximum human suffering: “Just strip it. I don’t
care what happens to the population.… I would take every mine,
every mill and factory and wreck it… steel, coal, everything. Just
close it down. I am for destroying it first and we will worry about the
population second.… Why should I worry about what happens to [the
German] people?”3

The genius of the bankman is to live off people; not off land, nor off the production of commodities from raw material, but off people. Let other people till the soil; the bankman , if he can, will live off the tiller. Let other people toil at trades and manufacture; the bankman will exploit the fruits of their work. That is his peculiar genius. If this genius be described as parasitic, the term would seem to be justified by a certain fitness.

Even the Communist Roosevelt pretended it was a loan…Brandon isn’t smart enough to grasp the concept, he just went full retard and gave it all to the Uke’s and Kikes for free…or was it blackmail.
Yeah, Dec. 7 was completely unexpected. LOL
