The New York Times in 1946 advocated pulling U.S. troops out of occupied Germany because of casualties caused by ex-Nazi guerrillas.

That's the first I heard about that. Do you have any references?

I've seen a copy of this editorial, and Pres. Bush read excerpts from it at the 2004 Republican convention. It really exists, though I can't find a link to the text right now.

While you weren't addressing your question to me, I got intrigued enough to find the answers. The article is here.

As you'd expect, there are various interpretations of what it says. For some background on the controversy when Pres. Bush quoted from this article, click here and here. (Use caution -- that last link takes you to a Mo Do column.)
