Twelve years age, Hitler grabbed the Ruhr. Without it, the German war machine would have been weak, and the incredibly successful conquests of 1939 to 1942 impossible. But with the most concentrated industrial region in the world working for him, Hitler conquered Europe. Once the Nazis were defeated, the Allied coalition determined to control the Ruhr, to make sure that Germany would never again have the productive means for war. Originally, the Allies planned to pull up the factories by the foundations and turn the Ruhr into a pasture-land. This drastic position was, however, economically dangerous, and slowly gave...
Rogues' Regiment (Universal-International) revives the reliable old French Foreign Legion and throws in a few renegade Nazis for good measure. It seems that a sinister character known as Carl Reicher (Stephen McNally) disappeared from Nazi circles at the time Hitler died.

Democracy without Christianity was not so much the opposite of the police state as it was its forerunner. "Liberalism can .prepare the way for that which is its own negation: the artificial, mechanized...
...member of the Hitler youth, and I am not sorry ... I was a Nazi, and I was happy that I was one ... I can be forced to give the outward signs of another belief, but what I keep in my heart is mine forever ... Oh my God, I love Germany, as she is now, a hopeless wasteland, and I will walk into this wasteland and, with only the power of my hands, create a paradise therein, more beautiful than that in the Bible. This shall be my future...
