Ike was an excellent PR man, a gladhander, a paper shuffler but never a field General.
Patton and MacArthur were thinkers, doers, tacticians, strategists, men of action.
When the battle of the Bulge broke out, Ike and Bradley were in London playing cards together, Montgomery was at home.
Patton was at the front lines organizing a relief effort before Ike was aware of the problem.
History is littered with such stories, like with Irish history we had Eamon DeValera sending Michael Collins to do the dirty work with the Anglo-Irish negotiations because he knew full well a full republic would not be attained. Collins ended up dead, while Dev became the longest serving PM in Irish history.
Precisely what De Valera did. At least in an indirect way; fan the flames of Civil War where Collins was an inevitable target. Even perhaps setting him up in the ambush that killed him (De Valera was in the vicinity at the time Collins was shot dead).
Several months after WW2 ended, all General officers were to revert to their permanent rank. That would have made Patton Ikes superior.
Patton had a most unfortunate "accident" and died in the hospital of a heart attack.
When I saw that above in the clip, I did a quick search, the Daily Telegraph even picked up on the story:
"an agent of the well-known OSS (Office of Strategic Services) or American military spy, a certain Douglas Bazata, a Jew of Lebanese origin, announced it in front of 450 invited guests; high ranking, ex-members of the OSS, in the Hilton Hotel in Washington, the 25th of September, 1979. Bazata said, word-for-word:
"For divers political reasons, many extremely high-ranking persons hated Patton. I know who killed him. Because I am the one who was hired to do it. Ten thousand dollars. General William Donovan himself, director of the O.S.S, entrusted me with the mission. I set up the accident. Since he didn't die in the accident, he was kept in isolation in the hospital, where he was killed with an injection."
That's interesting because his obituary says he was born in Wrightsville, Pa. and was the son of a Presbyterian minister. When I research the surname name Bazata on ancestry.com it appears to be of Eastern European origin, specifically around Hungary and what was once Czechoslovakia. I can't find any indication that Bazata has anything to do with Lebanon or Jews. I find all kinds of links with the same exact sentence that you cut and paste but nothing that verifies that information.
Besides speaking to Robert Wilcox for his book Target: Patton, Bazata admitted in The Spotlight that he was hired by Donovan to kill Patton. I believe that this is probably true. Hell it has been proven to my satisfaction that Roosevelt knew about Pearl Harbor hours, if not days, before it happened but allowed to to happen in order to involve us in WWII. A government that would allow a president to do this and remain quiet (he didn't work in a vacuum) as well as allow doctors to perform Nazi-like medical experiments on its population and the populations of other countries would have no problem killing one General if that government felt he was a threat.
That said, unless some sort of proof can be provided, I do not believe Bazata was Jewish.
