MICHAEL WALSH HIDDEN HISTORY

The United States in the 1930s was very different from how Hollywood described it. The so-called Land of Opportunity was a far cry from reality. 

The banking industry collapse was artificially contrived. As a result, the people of the United States of America suffered the most appalling levels of poverty.

For the first time in American history, immigration was reversed. Those fleeing the United States outnumbered the arrivals.

Frying pan fire: many swallowed the Communist hype about the Soviet Union being the workers’ paradise. These unfortunates disappeared into Stalin’s Gulag archipelago, the hundreds of labour camps.

War to the rescue

Japan had finally been goaded into attacking Pearl Harbor by putting the nation in a trade chokehold. The same chokehold is being placed on Russia today and was applied to Venezuela.

Pearl Harbor was the only American base that was not alerted to the threat. Washington desperately needed any excuse to declare Japan an enemy of the U.S.

Although purportedly neutral, Washington had waged a war on German interests since 1933.

America’s contrived war against Japan and Germany brought about a much-needed leap in U.S. employment. 

On the outbreak of war, American manufacturing industries alone added 7 million jobs. This was in addition to the 11 million supplementary jobs created beforehand.

Before the outbreak of war, the American armed forces numbered only 174,000 personnel.

During America’s war on the Reich and Japan, 16 million unemployed were recruited or conscripted into the U.S. armed forces. Industry was working at full capacity. Within months, the U.S. economy was restored, indeed enhanced.

Then, as now, the American economy was war-based. The U.S. is working to the same plan today in scores of countries like Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, Libya, etc

The war against Germany and Japan conveniently helped to kick-start the U.S. economy at the expense of the German and Japanese trade competitors.

Informed people now know that Franklin D Roosevelt and his administration were influenced by America’s powerful Jewish lobby. They were prodded and blackmailed to involve America in the war. The aim was to boost profits in the arms-related industries.

The visible effects of the depression were seen in what was dubbed Hooverville’s. These were shanty towns built on vacant lots. They were made out of cardboard boxes, tents, and small rickety wooden sheds constructed by homeless people.

Residents lived in the shacks and begged for food or went to soup kitchens.

The term was coined by Charles Michelson. He was the publicity chief of the Democratic National Committee. Michelson referred sardonically to President Herbert Hoover. He blamed Hoover’s policies for the depression.

The woman who became known as ‘the migrant mother’. This depressing image was recorded in spring 1936 in Nipomo, California. (See Top Picture).

Dorothea Lange, who took many of the photographs of the period later reflected.

“I saw and approached the hungry and desperate mother, as if drawn by a magnet.  I do not remember how I explained my presence to her. I also do not remember how I explained my camera. However, I do remember she asked me no questions. (See Top Picture).

I made five exposures. I did not ask her name or her history. She told me her age, that she was thirty-two.

She told me that her family had been living on frozen vegetables gathered from the surrounding fields and birds that her children killed.

She had just sold the tyres of her car to buy food.  There she sat in that lean-to tent with her children huddled around her. She seemed to know that my pictures might help her. So she helped me. There was a sort of equality about it.”

LIFE IN THE REICH Mike Walsh: FORBIDDEN HISTORY: The standard of living in Hitler’s Third Reich was unmatched. No developed nation would compare. German workers enjoyed a lifestyle comparable to that of movie stars. Germany led the world in fashion, medicine, cinema, lifestyle, manufacturing, transport infrastructure, public facilities, cutting-edge science, healthcare and education. Amazon removed Life in the Reich. The book dared to show Hitler’s Germany as it was. It did not follow what the propagandists would have us believe.
