There are all kinds of low class slime who are trying and will continue to try to wreck this country from the inside. Most of them don't know it, but they are actually working for the Russians. Some of them do know it, though. It doesn't matter whether they call themselves communists, socialists, or just plain foolish liberals. They are destroying this country.
--George S. Patton
The one thing that I could not say, and cannot yet say publicly, is that my chief interest in establishing order in Germany was to prevent Germany from going communist. I am afraid that our foolish and utterly stupid policy in regard to Germany will certainly cause them to join the Russians and thereby insure a communistic state throughout Western Europe.
--George S. Patton
Ike ordered Patton to withdraw his men from several position, saying that those positions ‘belong to the Russians’. Patton said ‘that ground is ours, Americans died taking it from the Germans.’ Eisenhower replied,
‘that’s not part of the plan.’
‘What plan?’, Patton demanded.
Eisenhower, never answered that question.
When I get home, I am going to through with my plans to resign from the Army. I’m going to do it with a statement that will be remembered a long time. If it doesn’t make headlines, I will be surprised. I am determined to be free to live my own way of life, and I’m going to make that unforgettably clear.
--George S. Patton
Within less than a week of that statement, on December 9th, 1945 Patton’s neck was broken in a bizarre auto accident. He later died on the 21st of December. From that day forward many ‘conspiracy’ tales started to emerge. In my opinion, based upon the materials available to me, only two of them seem likely.
Patton's death Summary:
Patton wanted war with Russia to free Europe
Patton became aware of a ‘plan’ among allied high-command to destroy Germany
Patton resist said ‘plan’ to the best of his ability
Patton was aware of the POW/hostage situation with Moscow
Patton was aware of the forced ‘repatriation’ of Russians to their deaths
Patton became aware of the Yalta provisions and the implications
Patton threatens to tell America of our betrayal of American POWs
Patton understanding there are enemies within as well as with out decides to resign and 'blow the lid' on the scandal
Patton threatens to tell America of our betrayal of Europe to communism
Patton ‘dies’ in some little hospital after an ‘accident’ and is forgotten
