Prince Bernhard zur Lippe Biesterfeld was a nazi corporate spy, who ingratiated himself into to the Dutch royal family.

During the 1920s and 1930s, he was a member of the NSDAP, the Jugensturm, the Reiter SS (that's right, the SS), and became a corporate spy for IG-Farben, the chemical giant which was to become the industrial backbone of the nazi war machine.

It was in this capacity that he was stationed in Holland in 1934. Three years later, he married Holland's future queen.

During the war, he became head of the Dutch Princes Irene Brigade, which followed the allied armies on it's march through Europe.

The prince's most infamous contributions may be the betrayal of some 50 brave but doomed SOE agents who were directly dropped into the waiting hands of the Gestapo and Dutch collaborators, during what the Germans called the Englandspiel and the British called Operation Northpole.

His most murderous contribution would have been the betrayal of Arnhem. During operation Market Garden, US and British forces were to advance quickly along a road through the southern and eastern Netherlands, capturing all bridges along the way, with the biggest price being the bridge at Arnhem. Arnhem bridge was to be taken by several paratroop brigades who were to be parachuted near the target and take the bridge. They had very little heavy weaponry, and until the armored ground force had caught up with them, extremely vulnerable to a counter-attack, let alone counter attack by armored units.

Miraculously, the Germans decided to place 2 armored SS units in Arnhem, 'for recouperation'.

As a result, Operation Market Garden became a failure. Over 2,000 British and Polish troops were killed, many more captured and the rest beat a hair raising retreat across the river. The failure of Market Garden created the breathing space Hitler needed to launch his counter-offensive, which resulted in the Battle of the Bulge.

'The Betrayal Of Arnhem' has usually been attributed to a Dutch double or triple agent named Christiaan 'King Kong' Lindemans. Lindemans however was in close contact with Prins Bernhard, and who better to pass high level intelligence on to him than Prins Bernhard zur Lippe Biesterfeld, nazi and SS-er.

After the war, the prince remained active, co-founded the Bilderberg Group, named after the same hotel De Bilderberg in Oosterbeek. He also co-founded the World Wildlife Fund, underlining his love for nature and especially for shooting it.

Bernhard's 'old friend in Argentina' (favorite rabbit hole for nazi war criminals), Jorge Zorreguieta, agriculture minister in the cabinet of Argentina's dictator Videla, supplied Holland's future prinses Maxima. In the process making the Dutch royal family look more like a nazi rat line of German nazis, Spanish fascists and South American dictators.




31 years ago an autobiography appeared by the Dutch communist Wim Klinkenberg, and recent opened archives have proven him right. In fact a war time message has become public, that shows that even during WWII, the cabinet was aware of the Prince's nazi and SS past.

If you're not sick already, you should be.

Glad you're dead, you nazi scum, and over half a century too late.

  • De overheid gaat wel over geschiedschrijving of wat er wel of niet in musea gezegd mag worden over foute Nederlanders. Dit valt onder het ministerie van volksgezondheid welzijn en onderwijs. Men drijgt soms met subsidies terug te trekken als men over foute Nederlanders wil publiceren of spreken.
