Built in 1944, the monument initially represented the memory of the victims of the Lidice Massacre in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia while simultaneously symbolizing the patriotic efforts of the Phillips community during World War II. After the memorial’s rededication in 1984 the meaning of the monument to the community shifted. While still commemorating Lidice, the annual commemorations gave rise to the Phillips Czechoslovakian Community Festival held each year. The memorial became a site of cultural identity for the Phillips community and is

    1 The War and its Legacy Conquest and Occupation Between 1939 and 1942 most of Europe was united under German domination. At its greatest extent the territory occupied by Germany and its allies stretched from the Caucasus to the Atlantic coast of France, and from Greece to Norway (see Map 1.1). In addition to Britain and the USSR, only a small number of neutral states retained some degree of independence. Having rapidly overrun Poland and western Europe in 1939–40, Hitler took his greatest gamble by invading the Soviet Union in June 1941 (“Operation Barbarossa”) while leaving an undefeated Britain in the rear. Although the Soviet resistance stiffened as German troops approached Moscow, vast tracts of territory and more than 3 million Red Army soldiers were lost in the first six months of combat on the Eastern Front. By September 1942, after a further successful campaigning summer, German forces stood on the Volga at Stalingrad, some 2,000 kilometers from Berlin. What was the nature of this new German empire? According to Nazi rhetoric this was a “New Order,” a hierarchy within which non-Germans would have their designated part to play. The “Germanic” peoples, such as the Dutch and Norwegians, might eventually be absorbed into the Reich, whereas the fate of the Slavs of eastern Europe would be resettlement and enslavement. Yet while there were those in the more privileged groups eager to collaborate on such terms (see below), HitlerCOPYRIGHTED had no intention of sharing power MATERIAL with them. The New Order enshrined Germany’s domination of Europe, and its true nature was one of economic exploitation, political oppression, and increasingly severe racial persecution.

The May 27, assassination attempt left Reinhard Heydrich with critical but seemingly survivable injuries. The projectile, a piece of sheet metal, shattered the 11th rib, punctured the stomach lining, and finally lodged in the spleen. The wound contains a number of horsehair and hair, probably material originating from the upholstery. The dangers: festering of the pleura due to pleurisy. During the operation the spleen was removed. All seven paratroopers involved in carrying out the May 27, assassination eventually sought refuge in the Orthodox Church of Saints Cyril and Methodius also known as the Karel Boromejsky Church on Resslova Street in Prague. The true story reveals that they hid in the church until the morning of June 18, , when SS forces had the building surrounded and began searching its grounds. He broke after they showed him his mother's head floating in a fish tank. A false lead had led the Nazis to believe that two Czech pilots from Lidice had been involved in the assassination of Heydrich. Even after learning the truth, the fate of Lidice had been decided.

  • Kill the Leaders! Covert Operations, Assassinations and Coercive Power
    7th International Conference on Humanities and Social Sciences “ASEAN 2015: Challenges and Opportunities” (Proceedings) Kill the Leaders! Covert Operations, Assassinations and Coercive Power 1. Dr. Adam Leong Kok Wey, Senior Lecturer, Specializations: Foreign policy and all dimensions of strategy, National Defence University of Malaysia, [email protected] Abstract Although much has been written about the practice of covert operations utilising assassinations of enemy leadership, none had specifically studied the strategic logic and utility of such operations as a means of coercive power. This paper provides an analysis of the effects of killing the enemy leadership through the lens of strategic theories related to leadership decapitation. Historical case studies of covert operations and assassinations conducted by the exiled Czechoslovakia government during World War II (Operation Anthropoid), and the practice of covert operations via assassinations to gain political power by the Nizaris between the 12th and 13th centuries in the Middle East, are used for the analysis of the utility of covert operations within the strategic context of coercive power. Although covert operations’ results have been mixed, this practice of coercive power continues to provide an economical and deniable form of intervention in pursuit of national interests (and power), and importantly, can be utilised by all states regardless of its relative power (from great powers to small powers).

  • The Last Palace Notes
    The Last Palace Notes Prologue 2 first-generation Czech-Jewish American: For the sake of concision, I use the adjective “Czech” interchangeably as shorthand to reference Czechoslovakia (as in this instance), as well as the Czech Republic, the Czech lands (including Bohemia, Moravia and a portion of Silesia), the residents of those lands, and the language they speak. 3 one hundred rooms: Ebel and Vágnerová calculate the room count as follows: “upstairs, the house has 18 rooms which are mostly bedrooms and seven bathrooms; the first and second floor have 28 and 32 various types of rooms, respectively, and the ground floor and basement have 26 and 62 rooms.” See Martin Ebel and Helena Vágnerová, Otto Petschek’s Residence: Two Faces of an Entrepreneur’s Villa in Prague, Prague, Exhibition by the National Technical Museum and US Embassy in Prague, November 28, 2012–March 31, 2013. Other estimates vary, and the exact number is unclear. 4 Klaus was a climate-change denier: For more on Klaus, see Gregory Feifer and Brian Whitmore, “The Velvet Surrender,” New Republic, September 17, 2010. 4 “Truth and love will prevail”: “Living in Truth,” Economist, December 31, 2011. 4 “truth-and-lovism”: Michael Žantovský, Havel: A Life (New York: Grove Press, 2014), 456. 5 He and the Russians: Peter Baker and Dan Bilefsky, “U.S. and Russia Sign Nuclear Arms Pact,” New York Times, April 8, 2010. 5 Jewish life was flourishing: For an assessment of religious freedom in the Czech Republic in 2010, see, e.g., U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor, “Czech Republic: International Religious Freedom Report 2010,” November 17, 2010.
