Adolf Hitler and Feldmarschall Erwin Rommel

[Teutonic]

Curious if anyone knows the facts behind the assassination attempt on Hitler and the subsequent backlash and accusations directed towards Fieldmarshall Erwin Rommel?

I suspect that most of the story is Jewish propaganda, being that Rommel was one of Hitler's most trusted and competent generals, I highly doubt the narrative that Hitler demanded Rommel commit suicide or that his family be put to death- which is what we're told happened after operation Valkyre failed.

Like so much of WWII history, the relationship between Hitler and Rommel depicts Hitler as a paranoid and deranged madman; which leads me to believe there's much more to the tragic loss of one of Germany's greatest military minds than what we're told.

Bill did a whole series of excellent podcasts on Operation Valkyrie. Or, of course, there's always the Tom Cruise version of history...

On one hand Erwin Rommel was, according to Wikipedia, " regarded as having been a humane and professional officer. Orders to kill Jewish soldiers, civilians and captured commandos were ignored", and on the other hand they say that "Rommel was a national hero". So if a "national hero" was one who ignored orders "to kill Jewish soldiers, civilians and captured commandos", why are all Germans so frequently decried as being evil?

In truth, the entire portrait of World War II is a pile of bullshit constructed solely to support the Jewish Holocaust narrative, and what Wikipedia says about Rommel is just one example of a cover story for the Jewish lies.

There is no documentary evidence linking Rommel to Valkyrie, and there is no documentary evidence linking the reasons for Rommel's suicide to Hitler. Much of the information concerning Rommel in this regard seems to come from Hans Speidel, who was a real traitor and who I would not trust for any truth about the war. Later, Speidel was awarded by Satan with a high-ranking position as a commander of NATO forces in Europe.

Rommel's car was strafed by a plane in July, 1944, a couple of days before the bomb went off in the Wolf's Lair, and Rommel suffered serious injuries as a result. If he killed himself three months later (notice the "if"), many reasons for why he did so may be imagined.

A few years ago David Irving interviewed Speidel on his role in Normandy.
There's no doubt this assessment is the correct one.

Maybe you've seen this, Teutonic, but for whatever it's worth, here's Irving's paper on Rommel.
The part ref Speidel begins about half-way --

"... Thus at the beginning of April, 1944 Rommel replaced Alfred Gause, who’d been his chief of staff throughout the entire North African campaign, with an educated, piano-playing, general staff officer by the name of General Hans Speidel ..."
