ADOLF HITLER—THE GREAT CONSPIRACY

ADOLF HITLER—“The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was to convince the world that he didn’t… exist survive!”

Circa 1947— a Nazi submarine code name Gruppe Sea Wolf surfaces off the eastern coast of Argentina, a region called Patagonia, once thought to be barren and desolate, but in truth, a green and lush landscape, very much resembling the Alps of Austria. 

In a hidden bay guarded by towers and bunkers, the Nazi submarine slowly glides into a makeshift port and docs. Nazi soldiers greet the incoming guests with Heil Hitler salutes as one by one the visitors step off the sub’s deck. One soldier immediately recognizes the individual for whom much attention is being paid. He had actually met the man in Germany years before his transfer to Argentina. The easily recognizable signature mustache was missing, but the same piercing blue eyes and hardened features left no doubt in his mind, the man he is greeting was… Adolf Hitler.

Since the fateful day of April 30, 1945 when the world’s newspapers reported that “Adolf Hitler and his wife, Ava Braun, had committed suicide, a mysterious dark cloud has hung over the reported events of that day. 

Considered one of the most outlandish conspiracy theories of all time, there are many who still believe that Hitler and his wife actually survived? The initial report of their deaths as Russian forces descended on Berlin was that both were found dead by suicide. Ava, with a single cyanid pill, and Hitler a cyanid pill followed by a self-inflicted gun shot to the head. But what if it wasn’t true? 

Unlike most conspiracy theories, the question of Hitler’s possible escape is unique in that there “is” tenable proof that he and his wife actually survived. Per the book by Simon Dunstan and Gerrard Williams-“Grey Wolf-The  Escape of Adolf Hitler”—Eisenhower (then general of Allied forces) was reported to say that, “There is more reason to believe that Hitler has survived than there is proof that he is dead.” When asked at the Potsdam Conference in July 1945 how Hitler had died, Stalin said he was either living "in Spain or Argentina.”-*Wikipedia.

Even our own government and the CIA have records of numerous sightings of Hitler through-out the two decades following World War Two. Reports of both Adolf and Ava’s presence in Spain and then Argentina. But even reports of sightings must be tempered with the understanding that “sighting” accounts alone can be misleading— consider the thousands of sightings of Elvis since his death. 

But there are real “facts” surrounding the supposed deaths that point to the very real possibility that Hitler not only survived, but lived a long life. And if Hitler did not die, you also have to ask the question how and why? Was there, and is there, something more nefarious at play? And the greater question (in regards to how)—who stood to gain by perpetuating the lie? 

The answer to these questions is not as simple as you might think. At the end of World War Two, many of the world’s leaders (including America) were mesmerized by the wealth and technology that the Nazis had amassed. So much so that even governments committed to democracy and fairness turned a blind eye to what immediately happened in the final days of the Third Reich. 

More than 1600 scientist, engineers, and technicians ended up in the US alone, scientists like Werner Von Braun (who created the V-2 rockets that terrorized Britain during the war) suddenly becoming the head of America’s Space program after the war. The other benefactor of Nazi technology and migration of scientists was the Soviet Union, accounting for their sudden jump in space technology.  

But technology was only a one piece of a much larger pie. The Nazis stole billions of dollars of gold and precious jewels, as well as a vast amount of the world’s art. So much so that the corruptible eyes of many foreign governments around the world, seeing an opportunity for personal gain, were more than willing to look the other way.

DISCLAIMER:

I will note at this point that I am not a historian, nor am I someone who typically believes in conspiracy theories. But I believe the broader reach of truth in history will be a much different narrative about Hitler than what we are now led to believe; one that will likely strike at the very fiber of our sense of balance in the universe, and our own humanity. 

HITLER’S ESCAPE--FACT OR FICTION?

The alternate story of Hitler and his escape begins years before Germany’s fall. It is a documented fact that as early as 1943, the Nazis, guided by the master mind Martin Borman, Reichsleter to Hitler (essentially his right hand man) began preparing an “exit plan” should the tide turn and Germany loose the war. Boreman began coordinating with Nazi sympathizers in Spain, Italy, Great Britain, the Vatican, and yes, even America— to devise an elaborate plan of escape for the elite members of the Nazi party. Escape routes called “ratlines” stretched thorough out Europe and the world.

At the center of the plan, nine “secret” super submarines, were designed and built by the Nazis specifically to transport fleeing high ranking Third Reich officials out of Germany, as well as the billions in gold and art that they plundered from across Europe. There has never been a true accounting of the total amount that was stolen, but it is estimated the Nazis plundered more that one fifth of all the art in Europe and acquired perhaps billions upon billions more in gold and precious jewels—by todays standards it might well be in the trillions. And as fantastic as these facts sound, they have never been disputed by anyone.

Most of the world’s art had been harvested specifically for Hitler’s museum, but as the tide of war began to change, much of it disappeared. Even today, there are rumors that a train filled with stolen gold and art remains hidden in an underground tunnel, under a mountain, somewhere in the Alps. 

*And a fair amount of the missing art, once considered to be a myth, was discovered by the Monument Men (a task force specifically formed to recover stolen Nazi art) at Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria, (the castle that inspired Sleeping Beauty’s castle at Disney World). Yet despite the noble efforts of such groups as the “Monument Men”, as much as 30,000 pieces are still missing, even at this writing (see notes below).

THE GREAT EXODUS

Using the “ratlines” escape routes nearly eight thousand Nazis alone fled Germany assisted by the Vatican in Rome and Pope Pius XII (a self proclaimed anti-semitic). Other countries including Italy, Britain and America also had factions that assisted in the Nazi escape. At the end of the ratlines Hitler’s secret fleet of submarines waited to transport them and their untold fortunes to countries around the world. 

THE OVERLOOKED UNDENIABLE PROOF OF HITLER’S ESCAPE.

When I began to question Hitler’s supposed death, I was not even aware that there was a “conspiracy theory” and that it has existed since 1945. What caught my attention, and to me, the one undeniable argument to be made supporting Hitler’s escape; if the Nazis had gone to such elaborate lengths to create highly complex escape routes in oder to get their leaders and their spoils out of Germany, is it really plausible that they would leave their most valuable political asset behind…to commit suicide? 

THE BUNKER SUICIDE: A SCENE OF ORCHESTRATED LIES?

The lens of history will never fully reflect, or comprehend, the level of deception the Russians encountered the day they breached Hitler’s lair, the “Führerbunker” in Munich. Many, like me, never knew that the Allied forces were not first on the scene, in fact, they did not arrive until days later. What we know about what was found on that first day is relegated to the second-hand accounts of Russian foot soldiers—not historians or professionals equipped to recognize a carefully staged fabrication. And undoubtedly there were Russians, when they did see what the soldiers had found, realized the opportunity that had fallen in their laps. 

In some cases it would be years before Allied historians and forensic scientists would see even some of the surviving artifacts, and some would never be seen. So the question is; did the Russian soldiers really find a dead Adolf Hitler and wife, or did they find people that looked like Hitler and his wife? Even to a trained expert it would have been hard to know, the body doubles of both Adolf and Ava were intentionally burned so far beyond recognition that verification in that day and time would be almost impossible which is what the Nazis wanted. And can we really trust the pre-scripted accounts of those inside the bunker who, may or may not, have known that the bodies of both the Fuhrer and his wife, were actually body doubles.  

So in al likelyhood, the record we have of that day in April 1945, is what the Nazis wanted the world to find. Still, countless conspiracy debunkers point to two artifacts that they claim definitively authenticate Hitler’s death: the remains of a jawbone with identifiable dental work matching Hitler’s personal dentist’s records, and the fragment of a burned skull with a bullet whole in it. 

But realizing that the Nazis were masters of illusion, is it not entirely possible, that the Nazis could have planted dental records/x-rays of one of Hitler’s body doubles (which he was known to have several) in the records of his personal dentist? A place where they knew the “powers that be” would turn to identify a dead Hitler? 

And what about the skull fragment with a bullet hole in it? Years later it would be identified as that of a women (not Ava’s) and more importantly, not Hitler’s. Which, if it had been found in the ashes where Hitler and his wife had been cremated, would it not be logical to assume that it had been put there intentionally. And even had the skull fragment had been Hitler’s, why would it have a bullet hole in it, if he had ingested a cyanid pill? Even the lie on a lie doesn’t make sense.

To further mask the events, there were no witnesses to the actual suicides. Ava and Hitler’s bodies were found on a couch in the main living quarters. The report goes on to say that the bodies were then moved to a bomb shell crater just outside the bunker and set on fire, making future identification impossible.  

*Debunkers also claim that blood found on the couch was tested and found to be the same blood type as that of Hitler, but even if they had had the DNA testing of today, which could easily and accurately identify Hitler’s blood as well as the blood type, was it not also possible that the health records used to identify Hitler’s blood, could be those of his “body double”, just were his dental records?

It is clearly evident that history and it’s writers, could have vastly underestimated both the Nazis creativity and their unlimited ability to create an illusion. And in a landscape of political agendas, both then and now; given the vast amount of wealth and technology at stake, can we really trust the historians, the politicians, and global leaders-who all likely had their own agendas for hiding the truth? 

HITLER’S REAL DEATH 

According to the book by Dunstan and William’s book-GREY WOLF-The Escape of Adolf Hitler, on February 13th 1960 at 3 pm, Adolf Hitler, hidden in his private compound deep in the wilds of Patagonia, (Argentina) slipped into a coma and was pronounced dead by his personal physician Dr. Otto Lehmann, who would later disappear in the months following, thus closing the last loose end forever.  

Regardless of whether Hitler died in a Bunker in Berlin on April 29th, 1945, or in Argentina 17 years later, the true demon that he released on the world remains with us and is even more dangerous today. 

Hitler created, ‘The Art of the Lie”. 

A quote often attributed to Hitler, he once told (Reich Minister of Propaganda) Joseph Goebbels, “Tell a lie. Make it big. Make it simple. And say it over and over again, and people will believe it.” 

Hitler convinced an entire country of impoverished and desperate people, as was Germany in the late 1920s & 1930s, that all of their troubles were caused by a certain ethnic group-the Jews. He perpetuated the first white supremacy lie, seeking to divide and conquer the people of Germany, pitting each against the other—and then the world,

In the name “sedition” he did away with the press and the media, and anything that would, or could, stand in his way. He weaponized his SS troops to annihilate his enemies, burn books, imprison academics, and in time, he even turned on those who put him in power (the omen of a true despot). And by the time they realized what they had done…it was already too late.

CAN IT HAPPEN AGAIN?

Is truth so fragile that it is possible for an entire country like Germany to be so mislead as to render it incapable of distinguishing truth from a lie? And if it could happen to Germany, could it not happen elsewhere in the world, to another unsuspecting people, to another unsuspecting country? To us? 

And are not the risks even greater, in this day and time, when collectively we live in a world so profoundly influenced by nefarious media sources and misinformation traveling at the speed of light, that a public, fortified with such forgeries of truth, might be, even now, more willing to drink the Kool-Aid without questioning those who gave it to us?

Americans live under the misconception that our way of life is more stayed  than what it really is, and few realize of all the forms of government in the world, “democracy” is the most vulnerable—the most fragile. Within the very core of our individual freedoms lies dormant the agendas of those who would purposefully blur the lines, corrupt our existence, and steal it from us, one small step at a time, so slowly that we would not even realize that they had taken it, until it was too late.

If Hitler did escape, and even if he didn’t, we must all accept the fact that there is no eternal balancing of the scales between right and wrong. No natural retribution or Judgement day. The evil that Hitler created, even in the shadow of his death, still lingers in that dark place hidden deep in humanity, preying on the weak minded, embracing its unreal alternate realities, and blinding even it’s most devoted followers…until they too are consumed by it.   

The Irish philosopher and statesman Edmund Burke is attributed with the quote, “The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.”

Hitler once said, “The victor will never be asked if he told the truth.” 

The world waits to see if they are both right.
