Why Did Hitler Invade Greece & Yugoslavia?

By Mike King

Germany controls Northern Europe, but is still vulnerable from the South and East.

THE SETTING

In 1940, the British had been chased out of Europe at Dunkirk (allowed to escape by Hitler) and France made peace with Germany. For defensive purposes, Germany continues to occupy Northern France, Holland and Belgium. Bases have also been established in Norway and Denmark (in response to British maneuvers aimed at establishing bases in those nations).

Germany has a peace offer on the table -- an offer to end the war and withdraw its troops from occupied territories. Churchill will hear none of it! Britain continues to bomb Germany while urging the Soviet Union to get involved. Stalin pretends to want peace, while his Red Army masses in the East. Churchill's grand plan is to establish a presence on the continent, in what he calls "the soft underbelly." He hopes to move against Germany from the South, while the Soviets attack from the East. Greece & Yugoslavia are the "soft underbelly."

SEPTEMBER 1940:
Germany, Japan & Italy Sign the Peaceful Tripartite Pact.

Text: "The Governments of Japan, Germany, and Italy consider it as the condition precedent of any lasting peace that all nations in the world be given each its own proper place, have decided to stand by and co-operate with one another in their efforts in Greater East Asia and the regions of Europe respectively wherein it is their prime purpose to establish and maintain a new order of things, calculated to promote the mutual prosperity and welfare of the peoples concerned. It is, furthermore, the desire of the three Governments to extend cooperation to nations in other spheres of the world that are inclined to direct their efforts along lines similar to their own for the purpose of realizing their ultimate object, world peace."

The lying Western Press spins The Tripartite Pact as "Anti-U.S." The pact only mentions self defense - AND ONLY IF ONE OF THE PARTIES IS ATTACKED - and says NOTHING about targeting America.

MARCH 25, 1941
Yugoslavia Joins the Tripartite Pact (as had Romania, Slovakia, Bulgaria & Hungary).

Eastern Europe Unites Against the Soviet Threat
1. Hitler with Yugoslavia's Prince Paul // 2. With Prince Miklos Horthy of Hungary

MARCH 27, 1941
British Intelligence and "Pro Western" Officers Orchestrate a Coup.
Yugoslavia's foreign policy instantly turns away from Germany and towards Britain and the Soviet Union.

1. From Churchill's post-war Memoirs: ..."(The Yugoslavian Coup) was a tangible result of our desperate efforts to form an allied front in the Balkans." //  2. SOE and British Involvement in the Belgrade Coup of March 1941, by David A. T. Stafford, Slavic Review / Vol. 36, No. 3 (Sep., 1977), pp. 399-419,  Published by: Association for Slavic, East European, and Eurasian Studies // 3. Pro Stalin / Pro UK Coup leader Dusan Simovic

MARCH 27 - APRIL 5, 1940
Reds Back the Coup
Communist Party of Yugoslavia (KPJ) organizes mass street demonstrations, in Belgrade and other major cities, in favor of the recent coup. "A Treaty of Friendship" (a war alliance against Germany) with Stalin's evil regime is then signed.

Like all Communist Parties, Yugoslavia's KPJ takes its marching orders from Stalin.

OCTOBER 1940 - APRIL 1941
Italy Invades Greece
Though unrelated to Germany’s war, Mussolini’s foolish war with Greece creates a big problem for Hitler. As Italian forces meet stiff Greek resistance, Churchill uses the conflict as an opportunity to  establish armies in Europe’s “soft underbelly.” British troops begin arriving to help the Greeks in their fight against the Italians.

1. Italy's adventure bogs down in Greece  /  2. British troops (Australian) based in Egypt embark for Greece in April of 1941. // 3. "British Army Landed in Greece"

APRIL 6, 1941
Germany Invades
Forced to postpone his surprise preemptive invasion of the Soviet Union, Hitler orders the invasion of Greece and Yugoslavia -- through their allied anti-communist neighbors. A pro German regime is restored in Yugoslavia and the still small number of British troops in Greece are forced to evacuate.
 
Churchill’s (and Stalin's) scheme to inflame Southern Europe has been thwarted.

1 & 2. Mussolini's imperialist ego creates problems for his German ally. // 2. British & Soviet intrigue were thwarted by swift German action.

APRIL 6, 1941
Hitler Addresses His Soldiers (excerpts)

SOLDIERS OF THE SOUTHEAST FRONT:

Since early this morning the German people are at war with the Belgrade government of intrigue. We shall only lay down arms when this band of ruffians has been definitely and most emphatically eliminated, and the last Briton has left this part of the European Continent, and that these misled people realize that they must thank Britain for this situation, they must thank England, the greatest warmonger of all time. The German people can enter into this new struggle with the inner satisfaction that its leaders have done everything to bring about a peaceful settlement.
We pray to God that He may lead our soldiers on the path and bless them as hitherto.

In accordance with the policy of letting others fight for her, as she did in the case of Poland, Britain again tried to involve Germany in the struggle in which Britain hoped that she would finish off the German people once and for all, to win the war, and if possible to destroy the entire German Army.

The new aim of the British warmongers now consists of the realization of a plan that they had already hatched at the outbreak of the war and only postponed because of the gigantic victories of the German Army. The memory of the landing of British troops at Salonika in the course of the first World War also caught little Greece in the spider web of British intrigue.

I have repeatedly warned of the attempt by the British to land troops in Southeastern Europe, and I have said that this constitutes a threat to the German Reich. Unfortunately this warning went unheeded by the Yugoslav nation. I have further tried, always with the same patience, to convince Yugoslav statesmen of the absolute necessity for their cooperation with the German Reich for restoration of lasting peace and order within Yugoslavia.

After long effort we finally succeeded in securing the cooperation of Yugoslavia by its adherence to the Tripartite Pact without having demanded anything whatsoever of the Yugoslav.

At this point the criminal usurpers of the new Belgrade government took the power of the State unto themselves, which is a result of being in the pay of Churchill and Britain.

Members and officers of the German Embassy, employees of our consulates in Yugoslavia, were daily being subjected to the most humiliating attacks. The German schools, exactly as in Poland, were laid in ruins by bandits. Innumerable German nationals were kidnapped and attacked by Yugoslavs and some even were killed.

In addition, Yugoslavia for weeks has planned a general mobilization of its army in great secrecy. This is the answer to my eight-year-long effort to bring about closer cooperation and friendship with the Yugoslav people, a task that I have pursued most fastidiously.

When British divisions were landed in Greece, just as in World War days, the Serbs thought the time was ripe for taking advantage of the situation for new assassinations against Germany and her allies.

Soldiers of the Southeast Front: Now your zero hour has arrived.

The fight on Greek soil is not a battle against the Greek people, but against that archenemy, England, which is again trying to extend the war far into the Southeast Balkans, the same as he tried far in the north last year. For this reason, on this very spot in the Balkans, we shall fight shoulder to shoulder with our ally until the last Briton has found his Dunkerque in Greece.

ADOLF HITLER

A man of peace -- forced to fight on many fronts by his ruthless enemies.
