“Operation Himmler – Nazi False Flag Used To Justify Invading Poland” – Polish history video by historian Mark Felton

Learn more about a little known operation used by Hitler to justify his decision to invade Poland in 1939.

A new Polish history themed video from Mark Felton Productions.

On 31 August 1939, the SS launched a false flag operation by attacking Gleiwitz Radio Station dressed as Polish soldiers – the reason was to give Hitler the justification he needed to invade Poland.

The video reveals the full story of both how Hitler came to attack Poland, and how he resorted to a false flag mission codenamed ‘Operation Himmler’.
