FDR 'Covered Up Soviet Atrocity to Appease Stalin'

Newsmax ^ | 10 Sep 2012

American POWS sent secret coded messages to Washington with news of a Soviet atrocity: In 1943 they saw rows of corpses in an advanced state of decay in the Katyn forest, on the western edge of Russia, proof that the killers could not have been the Nazis who had only recently occupied the area.

The testimony about the infamous massacre of Polish officers might have lessened the tragic fate that befell Poland under the Soviets, some scholars believe. Instead, it mysteriously vanished into the heart of American power. The long-held suspicion is that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt didn't want to anger Josef Stalin

FDR - - - Socialist Dimocrat who was in love with Stalin. His butt buddy Uncle Joe. FDR, creator of the socialist welfare state of the People’s Dimocratik Republik of Amerika.

[Navy Patriot]

Surprised?, FDR was effectively a Communist himself.

I really think everyone on FR should see “Katyn”. It was both good history and was also watchable.

Democrat Presidents kowtowing to communist dictators - a Democrat tradition since 1943.

Soviet General Blokhin personally shot 7,000 of the Polish prisoners, one at a time, in the back of the head using a pistol. He worked in a small execution chamber and as each prisoner was led in, Blokhin would step up behind him and shoot him. It took him many weeks to complete the job. He was highly praised by Stalin.

Let me provide you a short excerpt about what were American governments thoughts on atrocities commited by it's Soviet "ally":

Karski met with Polish politicians in exile including the Prime Minister, as well as members of political parties such as the Socialist Party, National Party, Labor Party, People's Party, Jewish Bund and Poalei Zion. He also spoke to the British Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden, giving a detailed statement on what he had seen in Warsaw and Bełżec. In 1943 in London he met the journalist Arthur Koestler (author of Darkness at Noon). He then traveled to the United States and reported to President Franklin D. Roosevelt. In July 1943 Karski again personally reported to Roosevelt about the situation in Poland. Karski met with many other government and civic leaders in the United States, including Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter, Cordell Hull, William Joseph Donovan, and Stephen Wise. Frankfurter, skeptical of Karski's report, said later "I did not say that he was lying, I said that I could not believe him. There is a difference."[7] Karski presented his report to media, bishops of various denominations (including Cardinal Samuel Stritch), members of the Hollywood film industry and artists, but without much result. His warning about the Yalta solution and the plight of stateless peoples became an inspiration for the formation of the Office of High Commissioner for Refugees after the war.[8] In 1944 Karski published Courier from Poland: The Story of a Secret State (with a selection featured in Collier's six weeks before the book's publication),[9][10] in which he related his experiences in wartime Poland. The book was a major success (a film of it was planned but never realized) with more than 400,000 copies sold alone in the United States up to the end of World War II.[citation needed]

Please have a look at the bio of this brave and commited person:
Jan Karski

The Red Cross was informed by the Germans about Katyn.

They examined the bodies etc. and reported that the Germans were correct and that they were executed by the Russians.

The Allies just ignored them.

[Verdelet]

Well, I wouldn’t believe a Nazi as well. ;)

[Blood of Tyrants]

I forgot about him and his “Great Society”.

[dfwgator]

Operation Keelhaul is a great stain on this country’s legacy.

A Must-See Movie

There is also a fantastic series (featuring many of the same actors from ‘Katyn’) called ‘Czas Honoru’ (Time of Honor), about the Polish Underground during and after the war, when they were hunted down by the Soviets.

Was he a communist dupe, a communist sympathizer, or a so-called "progressive" who figured he'd use communists for his own purposes? I can't say, but have a hunch history will.

Your questions and many others are answered in Diana West's well-researched new book, "American Betrayal: The Secret Assault on Our Nation's Character." Roosevelt was definitely a Stalin dupe, and the conclusion West reaches is simply astonishing to anyone who thinks they know the real history of WWII. So many crucial facts have been suppressed or destroyed it boggles my mind.

[Revolting cat!]

Adolph made a mess of an key industrial state. Lenin and his son Stalin made a mess of a backward state. I’m talking pre-WWII. That’s why, I figure, the West allied itself with the mass murderer Stalin before Hitler even became one.

[yarddog]

I wouldn’t believe a Nazi either but this time they were telling the truth.

Don’t know. It’s just a Google image search.
