MAD DOGS? or WEREWOLVES
“Saw a werewolf walkin’ through the Soho with a Chinese menu in his hand.” — Warren Zevon, Werewolves of London
“Official representatives of the United States Government wasted little time after World War II in getting into touch with one of the most dangerous of Walter Schellenberg’s special team, the indespensable SD agent Otto Skorzeny. Skorzeny was a war criminal of great importance who should certainly have walked to the scaffold at Nuremburg along with his superiors of Hitler’s Cabinet…
“Back at the Wolf’s Lair, Skorzeny was asked to take a leading role in a major counteroffensive against the Allies, in which he would dress up with his men in American uniforms as a major set of deception during the Ardennes offensive. This activity was a triumph: many Americans died as a result, and soon Skorzeny was first on the Americans’ most-wanted list. Back at Hitler’s headquarters in late 1944, Skorzeny realized the war was already over, but his loyalty to the Fuhrer was unwavering. He would do anything required of him. He undertook a series of secret missions, many of them in collaboration with Reinhard Gehlen, in charge of anti-Soviet espionage operations as the chief of the Army High Command in the East.” (pp. 243-247)
“Skorzeny… was involved in the setting up of the complex intelligence operation known as Werewolf, which was run directly by Himmler and in which Skorzeny worked very closely with Kaltenbrunner. Schellenberg was greatly irritated by Werewolf, because his subtle and devious nature was offended by the brutal bluntness of Werewolf’s espionage and sabotage activities. Indeed, Kaltenbrunner’s violent nature irritated Schellenberg more and more, and no doubt Schellenberg, the quintessential internationalist, who continued to scheme with representatives of the Allies behind the scenes, feared that the loudmouthed Werewolf members might discover and leak his plots.” (pp. 245-246)
“He was sent to Nuremberg, where he went through interrogations. Of all people, Avery Brundage, who had addressed America First meetings and had been responsible for United States participation in the Olympic Games of 1936, in Germany, was selected to interrogate him, a particular service that Brundage also performed for the U.S. Government in the instances of Fritz Wiedemann, Gehlen, and other treacherous figures… He utterly failed to bring out Skorzeny’s responsibility for the mass liquidation of Americans or anything else inconvenient that might fall into the hands of the liberals or the Soviets…
“The trial, which took place in August of 1946, was something of a farce. It was claimed that insufficient evidence was available and the prosecution was muddled: Skorzeny was aquitted despite his role as a war criminal… Like Gehlen, Skorzeny now became a most crucial figure in the secret war against the Soviet Union. According to several sources, Skorzeny was taken to Georgia, U.S.A., to demonstrate an experimental flying apparatus used in instant rescues. He was seen in Madrid, and in Bavaria, conferring with CIC officers; finally, he joined up directly with Gehlen, who became the chief spy master against the Soviets in Europe.” (pp. 249-250) — Charles Higham, American Swastika (Doubleday & Co., 1985)
“There are two mysterious Warren Commission suppressed documents in the National Archives. They are entitled: 1) Document 1016 Fascists and Nazis Today, Albin Michel, Paris and 2) Document #597 Bundesnachrichtendienst File.
“Why are they suppressed? The Bundesnachrichtendienst was the Secret Intelligence group of Adolph Hitler’s Eastern Front, the Reinhard Gehlen organization. Apparently this group sent several men to Dallas prior to the JFK assassination.” — Jay Pound, “Who Told the TRUTH About JFK?” - Critique, Spring/Summer 1986, p. 88
“Skorzeny moved to Spain, where he enjoyed a warm welcome from the Spanish Government. There he met with indispensable, American-educated Hjalmar Horace Greely Schact, a crucial figure in the formation of the internaional spiderweb of Nazi economic power… Schact and Skorzeny entered work together to reconstruct the industrial alliance with Spain which had been partly undermined due to wartime communication problems. He also worked with the leading Belgian nationalist Leon Degrelle, who had escaped execution for high treason in Belgium and was now assisting Klaus Barbie…
“He fell in love with and married Schact’s niece Ilsa and moved into a magnificent villa in a fashionable section of the Spanish capital. Ilsa Skorzeny was believed to be representing Skorzeny and Schact in arms transhipments to Egypt… Skorzeny was still under CIA cover. He never stopped arranging with Schact for the distribution of funds to the Nazi old guard.
“He organized Die Spinne, the Spider organization, which financed escaped Nazi war criminals via Switzerland, Austria, and Italy, often with Nazi buried treasure or sales of art that had been taken from Jews in occupied territories… The powerful Odessa organization, for Nazis in exile, centered on Skorzeny, and many industrialists helped…
“Skorzeny moved to the Middle East in 1953… King Farouk had been intricately involved with the Nazis, and when the CIA under Allen Dulles encouraged Gamal Abdel Nasser to become the essential dictator of the country, there was an even more favorable atmosphere for Nazis. Gehlen, Schact, and Dulles were mutually involved in the selection of Skorzeny as chief military adviser to General Mohammed Naguib.
“Skorzeny laced Egypt with Nazis including Adolf Eichmann… Concentration camps were set up under Skorzeny to liquidate the Egyptian Jews. The remnants of Rommel’s Afrika Korps were enlisted by him for desert warfare, and his security police were almost all from the SS and handed over to Nasser intact…
“Skorzeny returned to Germany once more and held an elaborate meeting of Odessa on January 25, 1957, at Kronenstrasse, in Stuttgart… Again and again, Skorzeny used his influence to protect Nazi after Nazi, most notably Josef Mengels, the notorious doctor at Auschwitz.
“Skorzeny got Mengels out of Germany to Argentina along with Eichmann and with the protection of Evita Peron…
“He rallied sufficiently to support Juan Peron when he returned to power in Argentina in 1973, and he made all the arrangements for Evita’s body to be brought from Italy to Buenos Aires as a symbolic support for her husband. When Peron died, in July 1974, Skorzeny saw to it that her embalmed body lay perfectly preserved in state beside the corpse.
“Later that year, Skorzeny attended a Mass for the souls of Hitler and Mussolini… Skorzeny did not long survive that important occasion. He died on July 7, 1975, and was cremated. His ashes were interred with ceremony in Vienna.” — Higham, Ibid. (pp. 250-255)
