Great find from winstonsmithministryoftruth.blogspot
This is a February 29, 1944 letter to the BBC & higher members of the British clergy, from the British Ministry of Information.
It lays out in no uncertain terms the following:
We all know the crimes committed by the Bolsheviks over the last 24 years in Russia and Eastern Europe
It is inevitable they will do the same in Central Europe
We will cover up their crimes by lying about the Germans
The public is not as stupid as it was, our lies will be better
You (BBC & Church) must spread these lies, convincingly
Sir,
I am directed by the Ministry to send you the following circular letter:
It is often the duty of the good citizens and of the pious Christians to turn a blind eye on the peculiarities of those associated with us.
But the time comes when such peculiarities, while still denied in public, must be taken into account when action by us is called for.
We know the methods of rule employed by the Bolshevik dictator in Russia itself from, for example, the writing and speeches of the Prime Minister himself during the last twenty years. We know how the Red Army behaved in Poland in 1920 and in Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Galicia and Bessarabia only recently.
We must, therefore, take into account how the Red Army will certainly behave when it overruns Central Europe. Unless precautions are taken, the obviously inevitable horrors which will result will throw an undue strain on public opinion in this country.
We cannot reform the Bolsheviks but we can do our best to save them -- and ourselves -- from the consequences of their acts. The disclosures of the past quarter of a century will render mere denials unconvincing. The only alternative to denial is to distract public attention from the whole subject.
Experience has shown that the best distraction is atrocity propaganda directed against the enemy. Unfortunately the public is no longer so susceptible as in the days of the "Corpse Factory," and the "Mutilated Belgian Babies," and the "Crucified Canadians."
Your cooperation is therefore earnestly sought to distract public attention from the doings of the Red Army by your wholehearted support of various charges against the Germans and Japanese which have been and will be put into circulation by the Ministry.
Your expression of belief in such may convince others.
I am, Sir, Your obedient servant,
(signed) H. HEWET, ASSISTANT SECRETARY
The Ministry can enter into no correspondence of any kind with regard to this communication which should only be disclosed to responsible persons.
This letter is reproduced in a 1958 book entitled: Allied Wartime Diplomacy: A Pattern in Poland by Edward J. Rozek, the image below is captured from the first edition. Pages 209/210 http://winstonsmithministryoftruth.blogspot.be/2011/07/shocking-1944-british-government-letter.html?zx=cafae665a49cbc8f
Thanks again for adding the guest to the file name. Makes it easier. Usually when Id change it myself, it would mess up and only part of the file would DL. So thanx again@!
Great interview, although I disagree with Thomas on one point, that being we mustn't let this happen again, it must happen again, only this time to the Jews, and this time they be destroyed once and for all!
If you share one commenter's scepticism on the description of the acts perpetrated then look into the official UK Government report of what went on in the Bolshevik revolution in Russia:

A Review of the book Hellstorm at Counter-Currents
If you share one commenter's scepticism on the description of the acts perpetrated then look into the official UK Government report of what went on in the Bolshevik revolution in Russia:
