THE GERMAN CAMPAIGN IN THE BALKANS (SPRING 1941): PART II

"III. German Propaganda 

German propaganda efforts naturally took full advantage of this open rift
between Serbs and Croats. The constantly repeated official line was that
Germany and Italy desired the creation of an independent state of Croatia and
that the military operations were being conducted only against the Serbs.
However, when Hitler was first told of the open animosity among the various
ethnic factions in Yugoslavia, he is said to have remarked: "That is none of
our business. If they want to bash each others' heads in, let them go ahead."


"In a letter Mussolini wrote to Hitler on 29 December 1941, the former stated
with reference to Yugoslavia: 

Before next spring every nucleus of insurrection must be wiped out or else we
run the risk of having to fight a subsidiary war in the Balkans. The first
territory to be pacified is Bosnia, then Serbia and Montenegro. The
military operations must be conducted with great determination and must lead
to a real and complete disarmament of the population, this being the sole
guarantee I for avoiding surprise in the future. For this purpose our military
forces must cooperate according to a common plan to prevent duplication of
effort and achieve the desired result with a minimum of manpower and
materiel."

Nota: la NATO al bivio, neofascismo o veterofascismo? O Mussolini era un
profeta, o i vari NATOlini sono fuori di zucca. L'una cosa non esclude
l'altra.
