Blind Eye to Murder

Blind Eye to Murder

by TomBower (Author)

Synopsis

This is an account of the Allied treatment of Nazi war criminals and the failure to de-Nazify Germany. Despite the growing avalanche of evidence after 1939 about Nazi Germany's deliberate extermination policies, the British Foreign Office refused to implement Churchill's orders to organize an effective post-war programme to hunt down and prosecute the perpetrators. That disinterest was matched by the State Department in Washington. Both governments even seemed disinterested when their own POWs were victims. In the early 1960s, the truth was discovered - that, of approximately 150,000 known mass murderers, only about 30,000 had been prosecuted, the vast majority in Eastern Europe. The three Western Allies were to blame. They had deliberately turned a blind eye to murder.
