External links modified[edit]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Valkyrie (film). Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to trueorfailed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

Erwin Rommel not in this?[edit]

No mention of Erwin Rommel, the Desert Fox? He was forced to commit suicide by taking cyanide capsules for his part in this. 40.131.156.70 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 16:46, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The issue has been addressed, not initially by me - although I have just rephrased the reference to make it clear Rommel committed suicide because he was implicated in the plot, but had refused to participate. (The existing phrasing misleadingly implied he committed suicide because he refused to participate.)Cloptonson (talk) 05:19, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Plotters' motivation?[edit]

The film provides no clue to the actual plotters' motivation.

It would not have been to assassinate Hitler so that peace would occur. Hitler made numerous generous peace offers before and during the war and these were all rejected or ignored. For example, he allowed the British army to escape at Dunkirk so that peace would be possible. Rudolf Hess is presented as a lone maverick who flew to Britain on a personal mission to offer peace. I f that is correct then why was he jailed for the remainder of his life? What actual crime did he commit? His jailing implies that he was actually presenting an official peace offer from Hitler and that the usual allied warmongers wanted him silenced. Moreover, Hitler and everyone else knew how the Germans were treated after WW1 when they were tricked into disarming by US President Wilson's (insincere) '14 points' peace offer. Hitler and everyone in Germany (correctly) knew they faced 'victor's justice' if they surrendered.

Were von Stauffenberg and his collaborators working for the allies?

P.S. The film shows several German soldiers smoking in uniform. Strictly forbidden by Hitler who was responsible for the world's first government anti-smoking campaign, including cigarette packets that displayed smoking-related diseases. Hitler suffered tuberculosis and was gassed during WW1. He also promoted health, fitness and welfare programs for civilians. Soldiers would have been most unlikely to have smoked whilst they were guarding Hitler. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1.129.104.33 (talk) 22:24, 12 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A genuine Nazi revisionist. Well done. The plan was entirely constructed on the (incorrect) belief that the moment Hitler was killed the Americans would switch sides and help Germany beat the Russians, that's all there was too it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.14.33.236 (talk) 15:53, 16 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
