Secret 1933 film shows Edward VIII teaching this Nazi salute to the Queen

There was a time when the elites and progressives were on board with Hitler, prior to him showing his true colors and agenda.  That's one reason it took so long for the world to come to terms with what he was doing with the Jews.  People (media) didn't want to believe it.

We would do well to be reminded of history.

One of the factors in British policy was a hope that if the Germans were flattered and treated properly, they would not be aggressive.

^Obama and his foreign policy advisors think "appeasement" towards Iran will get the same thing.  In reality, we'll probably get WWIII.

The Windsors were originally German. It's not surprising they'd be practicing how to salute the new global order.

QuoteEdward VII and, in turn, his son, George V, were members of the German ducal House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha by virtue of their descent from Albert, Prince Consort, husband of Queen Victoria. High anti-German sentiment amongst the people of the British Empire during World War I reached a peak in March 1917, when the Gotha G.IV, a heavy aircraft capable of crossing the English Channel, began bombing London directly and became a household name.

In the same year, on 15 March, King George's first cousin, Nicholas II, the Emperor of Russia, was forced to abdicate, which raised the spectre of the eventual abolition of all the monarchies in Europe. The King and his family were finally convinced to abandon all titles held under the German Crown and to change German titles and house names to anglicised versions.

After the Sun broke this item, the palace spokesmouths were flapping that somebody should be sued for this pseudo-scandalous breach of protocol and British decency. Then they found out that the photo had come from the royal archives, which had GIVEN PERMISSION to release that photo. Self-inflicted wound, anyone?

I'd include Joe Steelman as one of the dupes.  He was all for the Reich till they bit him in his anti-Pole posterior.

How'd the Non-Agression Pact work out for ya, Josef??
