On Saturday, January 2nd I watched a great movie. This is a movie about operation Valkyrie, the movie was named for this operation i.e. Valkyrie. For those of you who do not know, Operation Valkyrie took place in Germany in the year 1944. It was an attempt by a group of men and women who saw it as their duty to their country, their world, and their God, to stand apposed to Adolf Hitler. They saw a world forming that had to be stopped. Looking back at this discussion we cannot help but agree with their choice even though at the time it did not meet with the same warm reception that it does today. Yet their choice is not what shocked me about the events leading up to and including that fateful day of July 20th, 1944. But instead what shocked me was the providential hand at play in the midst of everything. It would almost seem that, as Claus von Stauffenberg worked so hard to kill Adolf Hitler, there was a greater force behind the scenes making sure that Hitler did not die.
