| Publisher Description: In the course of history, public opinion has always been manipulated. To keep us informed we depend on rarely independent specialized organisms, subordinated to economic power or political ideologies, shaping the opinion of the common citizen.In the first half of the twentieth century, this informative role was played by the written press, radio, literature and cinema, all of them controlled in some way by political parties or by powerful associations generally anonymous. For all that, we can affirm that the history of the Second World War has not yet been told in an impartial way. Good guys continue to beat bad guys.Several reasons have influenced for that to happen: the time passed was still not enough to extinguish old hatreds and the echoes of war propaganda still exert strong influence on the common man. Many issues continued to be a taboo for writers and researchers during the second half of the 20th century.However, something is changing. The current generation demonstrates a stimulating intellectual independence; every day increases the number of people who demand to know the truth about the most different issues.The Internet opened the door for many authors marginalized by traditional publishing houses; this has enriched the literary and informative offer for those who have real curiosity about the past.To elaborate this broad chronology that aims to accompany the story every day from 1933 to 1946, I have consulted a vast material that has been filtered, as far as possible, comparing the different versions and points of view, both political and socio-economic and racial. It has been a difficult task, sometimes I had to publish both versions about a certain fact, since I could not discover the truth and to avoid committing injustices by omitting one of them. Fortunately, for the most part, with patience and dedication, it was possible to approach what really happened.As an author I tried to place myself outside of ideologies, racial, nationalist and religious preconceptions, just like a free thinker ... free to relate in an impartial way the tragedy of the greatest conflict that has affected Humanity, a conflict that, in my opinion, in part is not over yet.The Second World War was the struggle between International Zionism and Ultra Nationalism that dragged the world into the most terrible bloodbath in history. |
