Operation Keelhaul
By Srdja Trifkovic
A few days ago a man who could have caused my death died of cancer at the ripe age of 86. He never faced a War Crimes Tribunal. He should have, and in a just world he would have. His name was Lord Aldington, and only now did I learn he was responsible for the sheer terror my decimated family of four - grandmother, mother, younger sister and I - experienced in the brutal summer of 1945 while trapped by the Red Army in the vicinity of Berlin.
We learned we were to be deported back to Russia. "Repatriation" was the euphemism. It would have meant almost certain execution or death by starvation and cold. In those lawless, bloody, brutal post-war years, as Germany lay in the dust and rubble of its destroyed and burned-out cities, it happened to millions and millions.
My mother having been warned, in a desperate flight across the Russian-British border in what we called the "Harzgebirge", we managed to escape. However, so weak was my own sense of history that as late as 1980, I never knew that the horror we escaped had a name. It was called "Operation Keelhaul". Millions were liquidated. Dr. Rimland
Below is a article on "Operation Keelhaul" and the man accused of having masterminded it. The article was written by one Srdja Trifkovic. (Dr. Rimland's comments are 'Zundelsite').
LORD ALDINGTON - DEAD, BUT NO R.I.P.
By Srdja Trifkovic www.rockfordinstitute.org/NewsST121900.htm 12-19-00 (Dr. Rimland's comments are 'Zundelsite').
Trifkovic: Lord Aldington, 86, a former British trade minister and Conservative Party vice chairman who filed one of Britain's most famous libel cases against a man who labeled him a war criminal, died of cancer Dec. 8 at his home in Kent, southern England. In 1989, Lord Aldington was awarded $2.2 million in damages after winning a libel suit against historian Count Nikolai Tolstoy, a distant relative of Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy, who had written a pamphlet accusing Lord Aldington of war crimes.
