About this listen

Do you want to learn more about World War II, but don’t have time to read huge, long books? Then let The History Journals take you on an hourly history tour of the different facets of the war. In this edition, learn about the plot to kill Adolf Hitler dubbed Operation Valkyrie.

When Adolf Hitler stormed to power in Germany during the 1930s, he experienced little opposition for his plans to re-build his adopted homeland after the restraints put upon the country and the reparations they were forced to pay to the victorious Allies in the aftermath of the First World War. Nevertheless, it may come as a surprise to discover that as early as 1938, even before the outbreak of World War II, conspiratorial groups had developed within the German army, with the objective of actually preventing Hitler launching a global conflict.

The story of the German Resistance is one that is rarely heard, but the bravery of the conspirators, despite their lack of success in stopping Hitler in his tracks, is nothing short of heroic. During the opening years of World War II Hitler and his military machine succeeded in virtually every campaign, making a coup unrealistic, but as the Allies gained strength, especially after the Americans entered the fray at the end of 1941 when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, an attempt on Hitler’s life began to become viable.

However, it was 1944 before Operation Valkyrie and Colonel Count Claus von Stauffenberg got within striking distance of assassinating the Fuhrer, and in The Hitler Conspiracies you can follow this remarkable plot that very nearly ended Hitler’s reign of terror, proving beyond doubt that within his own ranks there were those prepared to risk their lives for the sake of humanity.
