Note: It is interesting to note that it was Von Ribbentrop, who, along with other leaders <strong>of</strong> the<br />
German nation, were hanged for waging aggressive war!<br />
"Just imagine going to war over Danzig - such a world catastrophe, just to prevent Germany from<br />
getting a piece <strong>of</strong> territory that belonged to her; because Britain was afraid <strong>of</strong> Germany getting too<br />
strong. Joachim von Ribbentrop<br />
THE FIRST SHOTS OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR<br />
"Late at night on Thursday, August, 31st, 1939, the editor was listening to Gleiwitz, a radio station on<br />
the German-Polish frontier but just inside Germany. Suddenly, after midnight, the musical<br />
programme stopped and excited German voices announced that the town <strong>of</strong> Gleiwitz had been<br />
invaded by Polish irregular formations marching towards the emitting station. <strong>The</strong>n the station 'went<br />
dead'. When received again about 2.00am (Friday) Polish was being spoken.<br />
Cologne Radio gave out that German Police were repelling the attackers at Gleiwitz. At 6.00am<br />
(Friday) 1st, September, the German Army invaded Poland."<br />

THE FIRST SOLDIER OF THE REICH<br />
"... just as there have occurred, recently, twenty-one border incidents in a single night, there were<br />
fourteen this night, among which three were very serious...<br />
"Since dawn today we are shooting back. I desire nothing other than to be the first soldier <strong>of</strong> the<br />
German Reich. I have again put on that old coat which was the most sacred and dear to me <strong>of</strong> all. I<br />
will not take it <strong>of</strong>f until victory is ours or - I shall not live to see the end. <strong>The</strong>re is one word that I<br />
have never learned: capitulation." - Adolf Hitler, Reichstag speech 1st September1939<br />
"SOLDIERS OF THE WESTERN FRONT<br />
<strong>The</strong> hour <strong>of</strong> the decisive battle for the future <strong>of</strong> the German nation has arrived.<br />
For three hundred years it has been the aim <strong>of</strong> the British and French rulers to obstruct every real<br />
consolidation <strong>of</strong> Europe and, above all, to hold Germany in weakness and impotency.<br />
For this purpose France alone has declared war on Germany thirty-one times in the course <strong>of</strong> two<br />
centuries.<br />
But for decades past it has also been the aim <strong>of</strong> British world rulers at all costs to keep Germany from<br />
unity, to deny the Reich those vital possessions necessary for the preservation <strong>of</strong> a nation <strong>of</strong> 80<br />
million people.<br />
Britain and France have carried out this policy <strong>of</strong> theirs without worrying about the regime that<br />
happened to rule Germany at the time.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir object was always to strike at the German people.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir responsible men admit this quite frankly.<br />
<strong>The</strong> object is to smash Germany and to resolve it into a number <strong>of</strong> small states. With that the Reich<br />
would lose its political power and with it the possibility <strong>of</strong> securing for the German people their vital<br />
rights on this earth.<br />
For this reason all my attempts at peace were rejected and war declared on us on September, 3rd last<br />
year.<br />
<strong>The</strong> German people had no hatred and no enmity for either the British or French peoples.<br />
But today we are confronted by the question whether we are to exist or perish.<br />
