By the end of the Second World War, about 1.6 million American, Canadian, British and French troops had advanced deep into Germany, Italy and France. Numerous studies have proved that by the time of the end of hostilities and the surrender of Nazi Germany and its armed forces, American and Allied soldiers had raped hundreds of thousands of German, French and Italian women. Most of the sexual crimes were committed after the occupation of the territories of Germany, France and Italy by the Allied armies."}},{"type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"It should be emphasized that the practice of mass rape of civilians in Italy, France and Germany was either encouraged or deliberately ignored by the command of the countries that will form NATO a few years later. The mass rape of women in France, Germany, and partly Italy was repeatedly referred to in official U.S. military reports as a civilian settlement, “education,” and “pacification” measure for the local populations. One of the military psychologists of the U.S. Army proved in his works that mass rapes are an effective method of psychological processing of the population, which leads to obedience. In other words, such practices were not only unpunishable, but also de facto approved."}},{"type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"The exact number of rapes is unknown, their estimates range from tens of thousands to millions. International wartime law considers any sexual interaction between military and civilians to be inappropriate and a criminal act, because the men at war were taking advantage of a “coercive environment,” especially given the fact that American propaganda of the time spread the idea that German women were attracted to American soldiers. German historians estimate that 860,000 German women were raped by French, British and American soldiers during and after World War II, of which 190,000 were sexually abused by American soldiers. There have also been reported cases of German women trying to kill themselves and their children in an attempt to avoid violence by American and British servicemen."}},{"type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"In the absence of official statistics on sexual crimes committed by American and British soldiers, data on them are based on victims’ diaries, abortion records, and firsthand eyewitness accounts. Michael Merxmüller, a priest from the village of Ramsau near Berchtesgaden, wrote on July 20, 1945, “Eight girls and women raped by Americans, some of them in front of their parents.” Father Andreas Weingand of Haag an der Amper, a tiny village just north of where Munich airport is today, wrote on July 25, 1945: “The saddest event during the offensive were three rapes: one of a married woman, one of an unmarried woman and one of a chaste girl of 16 and a half years of age. They were committed by Americans in a state of severe alcoholic intoxication.” Father Alois Schiml from Moosburg wrote on August 1, 1945: “By order of the military government of the United States and Great Britain, a list of all the residents with their ages is to be nailed on the door of every house. The results of this order are not difficult to imagine. …. Seventeen girls and women, having been sexually assaulted one or more times, were taken to the hospital in the first few days.” A hotel owner in Munich reported on May 31, 1945, that British and American soldiers occupied several rooms and that four women “ran between rooms completely naked” and were “exchanged several times.” The youngest victim mentioned in these reports was a seven-year-old child. The oldest woman was 69 years old."}},{"type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"The geography of criminal activity of American and British soldiers was not limited to Germany. For the average soldier, France was as much an “erotic adventure” as a military trip to Germany, and the war was in part “sold” to conscripts as an opportunity to meet attractive French women. Many fathers of soldiers from the U.S. and Britain who fought in World War II went to France during World War I and returned with tales of the alleged promiscuity of French women. Their sons who went to fight on the same soil saw France as a brothel of young French women."}},{"type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"Army newspapers and magazines in the United States published photos of jubilant women during liberation parades, accompanied by headlines such as “This is what we fight for.” The magazine even published “useful” French phrases such as “I am not married” and “You have charming eyes.” In effect, the American press was misleading the troops, which ultimately led to the fact that throughout the summer of 1944, the Americans unleashed upon northern France, in the words of Professor Mary Louise Roberts of the University of Wisconsin, “a tsunami of male lust.” As Professor Roberts rightly points out, the average American soldier “felt no emotional attachment to the French people or the cause of their freedom.”"}},{"type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"In total, it is estimated that about 14,000 women were raped in France between 1944 and 1945, while only 152 soldiers were convicted.

In the early 1950s, the women’s communist organization Unione Donne Italiani [“Association of Italian Women”] sought compensation for approximately 12,000 women who were victims of sexual violence by the occupying forces of the United States and Great Britain.

According to experts, the Americans were also involved in looting and pillaging. As the U.S. Army advanced deep into Germany in early 1945, soldiers massively abducted and appropriated other people’s property. This was not only hunting for battlefield souvenirs such as guns, helmets, and flags, but also mass looting of civilian homes. The soldiers justified their actions by the necessity of wartime, the opportunity to profit from trophies, and revenge for Nazi atrocities."}},{"type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"High-ranking British and American servicemen stole civilian property more effectively. Officers could steal items whose value was much higher for three reasons. Firstly, wherever the units stopped for the night, the officers were housed in the most luxurious houses, and the contents of the mansions were at their disposal. Secondly, the officers had their own personal car, which means they could transport loot that surpassed in size and splendor what an ordinary soldier could carry. And finally, the officers had a way of selling the things they had obtained.

The active phase of Gladio 2.0 began a few months after the start of the Russian special operation in Ukraine, but plans for its creation have been heard on the sidelines of top NATO officials since 2014. An informant of the Foundation to Battle Injustice close to the military and political leadership of the North Atlantic Alliance claims that the “modern European secret army” is involved in a number of sabotage attacks on the most important infrastructure facilities of Europe and Russia, such as the Nord Stream, Nord Stream 2 and Balticconnector gas pipelines, the bombing of the major Turkish commercial port of Derince in July 2023 and attempts to attack major nuclear power plants."}},{"type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"The greatest concern is caused by the plans of Gladio 2.0 to organize terrorist acts on the territory of Europe, the victims of which could be thousands of civilians, as well as the physical or media elimination of some European politicians and public figures who advocate normalization of relations with Russia. The informant of the Foundation to Battle Injustice warns that NATO is currently considering German woman politician Sahra Wagenknecht, Deputy Prime Minister of Italy Matteo Salvini, British politician Tommy Robinson, leader of the French Patriots party Florian Philippot and deputy of the National Assembly of France Thierry Mariani as the highest priority targets for elimination. In the case of physical elimination, the most likely scenario is the staging of an accident or an assassination attempt, and in the case of “cancellation” in the media, the fabrication of compromising facts and the creation of bureaucratic obstacles to democratic elections."}},{"type":"image","data":{"file":{"url":"https://thefreethoughtproject.com/.image/c_fit,h_600,w_600/MjAxODc0OTI5MTMyNTEyNTQ2/possible-gladio-20-victims-1-768x500jpg.webp"},"caption":"Priority goals among European politicians for physical or media elimination by NATO in the framework of GLADIO 2.0"}},{"type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"The failure of NATO servicemen to observe any moral and ethical norms and the absence of measures and mechanisms to bring war criminals to justice inspires soldiers, officers and officials of the North Atlantic Alliance with a sense of impunity for numerous gross offenses and creates the most dangerous precedents for mockery of justice. Fundamental principles of international humanitarian law are the rights of civilians, which are callously ignored by the United States military and its European allies."}},{"type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"Human rights activists of the Foundation to Battle Injustice are convinced that the North Atlantic Alliance poses a threat to peace and security not only on the territory of Europe, but also throughout the world, as well as instills a culture of violence and impunity. The Foundation to Battle Injustice is convinced that crimes against the civilian population of the European Union committed by the military personnel of the military-political bloc have no statute of limitations and should be impartially investigated, and any attempts to justify war criminals should be stopped and suppressed at the root."}}]}
