Most history buffs probably have never heard of the Supreme Allied War Council. It was a secret committee consisting of British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, French Prime Minister Édouard Daladier, and one minister from each of their cabinets. It met a total of 16 times. Stefan Scheil has now succeeded in evaluating the top-secret minutes of these conspiratorial meetings, which reveal some spectacular findings: The War Council let the Poles walk into a trap in 1939 and never had any intention of intervening in the war on their behalf. Instead, it was feverishly busy expanding the war to ever new theaters of war and preparing French-British invasions in Norway, Sweden, Finland, and the Balkans. It wanted to begin the invasion of Germany via the formally neutral countries of Belgium and Holland. Together with the French files captured by the Wehrmacht in La Charité during the occupation of France, a shocking picture emerges of an absolute French-British will to destroy the German Reich, about which the world public was deceived and Germany was falsely denounced as a unilateral aggressor.
