British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain: “World Jews had forced England into the war.” According to an entry in The Forrestal Diaries dated December 27, 1945, former U.S. Ambassador to Britain Joseph P. Kennedy recounted a conversation with British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, in which Chamberlain stated that: “America and the world Jews had forced England into the war.” In his telephone conversation with Roosevelt in the summer of 1939, the President had told him that he would wage war but would have to let someone else start it. Kennedy further claimed to James Forrestal that: “neither the French nor the British would have made Poland a cause of war if it had not been for the constant needling from Washington” Summarizing Chamberlain’s supposed view of external pressures leading to Britain’s declaration of war on Germany in 1939. A slightly longer version of the entry from another published edition adds context on Kennedy’s recollections: “Kennedy’s view: That Hitler would have fought Russia without any later conflict with England if it had not been for William Bullitt’s urging on Roosevelt in the summer of 1939 that the Germans must be faced down about Poland; neither the French nor the British would have made Poland a cause of war if it had not been for the constant needling from Washington. Bullitt, he said, kept telling Roosevelt that the Germans wouldn’t fight; Kennedy that they would, and that they would overrun Europe.” This entry has been referenced and quoted consistently across multiple historical analyses of the diaries, which were edited by Walter Millis and published in 1951 (with some redactions in early editions; unexpurgated versions became available later).

🇺🇸🇩🇪 Donald Trump threatened to introduce serious retaliatory measures against European countries if they start selling off US stocks and bonds. He stated that he holds all the cards. The German Commerzbank warns that the escalation of tensions between the US and Europe over Trump's claims to Greenland increases the risk of sanctions against holders of US Treasury bonds in the EU. Such sanctions, including blocking access to the US financial system and freezing assets, would be a serious and unexpected step in US economic policy.
