Tito Deal Exposed In World War II Fallout
A late wartime column alleges Stalin manipulated the Teheran talks to push Tito as Yugoslavia’s leader, shifting lend-lease support to Moscow’s ally while Britain faltered. It recounts Tito’s clashes with the British, his break with Allied chiefs, and Yugoslavia’s volatile alliance, driven by Croat Montenegrin loyalties and Soviet backing. The piece ties Tito to postwar Balkan strife, with claims of German plots to Balkanize the U.S. and anti Semitic terror narratives echoed through cross examinations.
