The Life and Death of Rudolf Hess (1:58:03Hrs)
The story that tells of the life and death of Rudolf Hess. In this (1 hour and 58 minutes) video, the brilliant historian and researcher, David Irving, talks about the life and death of Rudolf Hess. Rudolf had fought in the first world war and had won a Iron Cross for bravery. He had taken up pilot training and ended up a Lieutenant in the Luftwaffe. He had joined the NSDAP early on and was with Adolf Hitler on the day of the Beer hall "putsch". He was imprisoned with Adolf and assisted him in writing "My Struggle". Rudolf rose to be deputy leader of the NSDAP. However, it became clear that Adolf preferred Herman Goring, a fighter ace, to be his successor. Rudolf was regarded as incorruptible, and people often wrote to him, when they found corruption, which Rudolf always investigated. In 1941, Rudolf undertook a dangerous flight to the British Isles in an attempt to negotiate peace, before the pre-emptive strike on the USSR took place. While details are lacking, it is possible that Rudolf was lured to the British Isles by a SIS (Secret Intelligence Service) "black" operation. Adolf did not order this flight to be undertaken, and Rudolf's aides thought that it had been sanctioned by higher authority. Spencer-Churchill ordered Rudolf to be held in prison and no talks took place. In 1945, Rudolf was put before the fraudulent "Nuremberg trials" and "sentenced" to life in prison. In 1987, Rudolf Hess was found dead. With a incredible speed all evidence regarding the death of Hess was eliminated. The entire prison was also promptly destroyed, and Rudolf was buried at a secret location. Dug up, an autopsy then claimed that the frail 93 year old Rudolf Hess, had committed suicide by hanging. A medical orderly, Melaouhi, who wrote a book about his suspicions about his death was quickly dismissed. A second autopsy, asked for by Rudolf's son, Wolf, showed that the marks on Rudolf's neck were inconsistant with hanging, and were level – consistant with strangulation.
