НЕДЕЉНИ ПРЕГЛЕД – “Weekly Review” – “Soviet tank units clearing the roads brutally crush the refugees on the roads and mow them down mercilessly with machine guns and grenades.”

A bulletin featuring “war news” from the Serbian front in the form of caricatures accompanied by descriptions by Nazi supporters in Serbia, presenting the superiority of the Axis powers over the Allies on the battlefield and slandering the Allies and the Serbian partisans cooperating with them. Serbian Cyrillic. Serbia [early 1940s]. Extremely rare.

The bulletin portrays Churchill as a malicious figure who, for the sake of victory, tramples innocent civilians, and accuses the Soviet army of genocide: “Belarusian, Polish, and Lithuanian refugees are leaving their villages as the Soviets approach. Soviet tank units clearing the roads brutally crush the refugees on the roads and mow them down mercilessly with machine guns and grenades” — alongside the description appears an illustration of a Soviet tank rushing forward and crushing innocent civilians. It accuses the United States Army of committing genocide against the Japanese people: “In the past, black people would bring the heads of murdered whites to their wives as trophies of war and proof of their valor. Today, Americans collect the heads of dead Japanese and send them home as souvenirs.” The bulletin also reports on a “new weapon that destroys hundreds of Anglo-American tanks.” Even the liberation of Normandy is presented here as indiscriminate slaughter: “In Normandy, there were about 100,000 residents. About 17,000 people died from the artillery and aviation of the ‘liberators.’ Under the ruins of Caen lie 40,000 Frenchmen. The rest are now forced by the Anglo-Americans to join the liberation army.”

Thus, one day Normandy will be “completely liberated… of everything living. What do you say about that, Mr. Democrats?” It further depicts Churchill as a drunkard cooperating with the partisans, and more.

Extremely rare. The booklet does not appear in the WorldCat global library catalog.
