WAS WORLD WAR TWO A LIE?
An appeal for further investigation of
The War That Won’t Go Away

Seventy-five years after its conclusion, World War Two, which may be The Biggest Event In World History, continues to exert an extreme, and possibly dangerous, influence on the United States of America – The Greatest Country In The World.
All of the War’s reported events happened. But this new, breakthrough book speculates that a secret worldwide pattern, or “covert global script,” may have run underneath the entire “good war,” affecting all combatants – even enemies at war.

After a 25-year study, author Roger Thiel discounts what he considers to be the old hostile myth of a “secret circle of international bankers” and suggests far more numerous culprits. Among his many speculations is that German Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler -- in an incredible role reversal -- may have been receiving instructions for much of his command.
Rather than a book of professional history, this compact text is written in a unique and engaging style that avoids a lecturing tone. You are there for the investigation, which does not claim anything to be “the truth” -- but instead speculates, considers, and suggests. This book continuously asks questions: what might be, what could have happened, and what seems to be just too convenient? -- as it makes a unique appeal for further investigation by other researchers.

Thiel suggests that World War Two “won’t go away” because the overwhelming changes it brought to the United States 75 years ago are now among the most dangerous issues facing America today, including military aggression, foreign interventions, overseas wars, and corporate greed.

“EXPLOSIVELY CONTROVERSIAL”

Prologue and Summary

Now, as the 75th anniversary of World War Two concludes, gatherings honoring the “good war” are filled with glowing, rosy images of sterling virtue and mile-high patriotism. A band may play. A trio of female singers in 1940s attire may perform songs of the War years. Speeches and tributes celebrate the War’s veterans with warm and well-deserved words for their achievements and high characters. But although my admiration for the well-named “Greatest Generation” remains unlimited, I now appreciate these men and women even more because I have come to suspect that the “good war” they fought so valiantly may not have been so good after all.

The widely accepted histories of World War Two are true. The campaigns and battles took place. The Holocaust happened. But after twenty-five years of research, I now speculate that there may have been a secret worldwide pattern, or “covert global script,” which ran underneath the entire conflict, affecting all countries – allies and adversaries, friends and foes.

My circumstantial conclusions tend to invalidate the old destructive myth of a “secret circle of conspiring international bankers.” The culprits I suspect are far more numerous, far more dangerous -- and far closer to home.

World War Two, arguably The Biggest Event In World History, won’t go away. I believe it made an imprint on the United States that still adversely lingers into current day. Seventy-five years after the War ended, I contend the changes it brought to America were not entirely for the better. The War created a military dominance that has endured through all subsequent decades. The conflict brought such technical complexity, staggering economics, and new, horrific weapons that it changed the very nature of how Americans thought. The general public allowed this new “military-centric” system to adversely endure. I believe this is why the extreme issues presented in this book have not been questioned or exposed before.

As an American “baby boomer,” my interest in World War Two came very early. By age nine I knew the War’s major battles, its major machines, and its major personalities. As my postwar generation grew up, the War was felt everywhere in popular culture. It was present in parades. It was present in movies. The War especially lingered for me in military surplus stores, stocked with items that just reeked of authenticity.

As I grew up, World War Two was the “last big one” in the talk of our fathers and mothers. Events of previous decades were referred to as having happened “before” or “after” the War, and nobody had to ask which war this meant. The War shone out as a justifiable and noble earlier time when everyone “pulled together” in a legendary effort to defeat evil, fascist Axis powers, led by megalomaniac dictators -- and did it. For the entire 20th Century, the War remains the immense shoulder on which everything else rests.

In 1998, the personnel who participated in World War Two would be aptly named “The Greatest Generation,“ but I had felt this sort of loyalty all along. The men and women who had undergone the conflict reflected a quiet dignity that contained an enormous feeling of unstated experience.

In the 1960s, as a teenager, when I spoke with veterans of the War, I would volunteer what I knew about battle campaigns, troop and fleet movements, and military leaders. My level of interest was usually appreciated, but an occasional veteran would surprisingly comment, “But what were we even doing over there?” Decades after the conflict had ended, a few men continued to express their frustration with World War Two. I was startled by these replies and pressed them into the back of my mind. But the seeds were planted of what would, thirty years later, become my revisionist interest in the War.

In 1977, as a young man, I studied a lesser-known “nugget” of America’s World War Two homefront, the history of private citizens who flew armed civilian lightplanes against invading German U-boats on the Atlantic coast. Some veterans of this small force – which contained no intrigue or secret behavior at all -- held annual reunions. I traveled to hear their stories, and over the next thirty years I would give over 200 historical presentments about their unique civilian war patrols.

Then, in 1990, my life was changed by a new book that exposed a major American military blunder on its World War Two homefront. I then recalled the sense of futility expressed by some veterans decades earlier and embarked on what would become four years of research. During 1991-1994, the long chain of circumstantial conclusions I reached grew to become extreme revisionist history. I came to believe, and still believe, that the War was affected by a concealed, or “covert global network.” The sheer amount of my suspicions was intimidating and I was wary of revealing them to others. But now, after 25 years, these speculations have lingered with me. They will not go away.

Rather than formal professional history, this book does not declare anything to be “the truth.” Instead, it continuously asks questions as it presents speculations, suspicions, and circumstantial suggestions. It offers theories and possible scenarios while presenting revisionist history. It suggests what could have happened, other issues that may have been, factors that might be, issues that seem to be, and other factors that could have been just too convenient.

I regard myself as an amateur student of history and present my speculations here as objectively as possible. I have tried to avoid an angry or authoritative tone while striving for legitimate investigation and research.

One of my most extreme speculations is that, although Adolf Hitler, the dictator of Nazi Germany, remains a monster of history, I theorize that for portions of his command – and in an incredible role reversal – he may have been receiving orders.

“Was World War Two A Lie?” covers only a tiny fraction of the War. I believe that revisionist review could be applied to much more of the War. The Biggest Event In World History could receive unlimited further review. I therefore invite other researchers to publicize their own further theories, speculations and suggestions, and to distribute them on social media, or more.

I believe the military-centric presence that followed World War Two “won’t go away,” and that it continues to produce the greatest dangers facing America today. These issues include military aggression, foreign interventions, overseas wars, and corporate exploitation.

However, despite the extremity of my speculations, suspicions, and suggestions, I still believe the United States of America is The Greatest Country In The World.
