ON JANUARY 17, 1961, PRIME MINISTER PATRICE LUMUMBA WAS BRUTALLY EXECUTED AND
HIS BODY DISSOLVED WITH SULPHURIC ACID. ON SEPTEMBER 18, 1961, A DAG HAMMARSKJOLD DOUBLE OR DOPPELGANGER WAS KILLED IN A PLANE CRASH AND THE REAL DAG HAMMARSKJOLD POSSIBLY SUFFERED THE SAME DIABOLICAL FATE AS PRIME MINISTER PATRICE LUMUMBA!! |
Patrice Lumumba was the first democratically elected prime minister of the newly independent Democratic Republic of the Congo. Prior to that time the mineral rich Congo was owned by British Belgium. Pharaoh Leopold II seized the Congo around 1880, and it was the African twin of the Militia of Jesus Maryland plantation.

Prime Minister Lumumba's official portrait. |
Patrice Lumumba was the Abraham Lincoln of Africa, and he was tall and stately like Lincoln. He was the founder of the Mouvement National Cogolais (MNC) which worked for the liberation of the Congo from British Belgian oppression. For his work as an emancipator he served 2 prison terms!
After he was released from prison he led a delegation to Brussels to announce the establishment of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Pharaoh Baudouin (1930–1993). Misruled from 1951 to 1993. |
Pharaoh Baudouin welcomed NATO to Brussels in 1968. As a "devout" Catholic he believed that expanding the domain of the "Church Militant" would shorten his time in "Purgatory!"
No matter how vehemently Pharaoh objected to freedom for the Congo, Patrice Lumumba was determined to create a government of the people, by the people, and for the people.

After receiving support from the UN, Prime Minister Lumumba visited Washington City, expecting a warm welcome from Preside tn Eisenhower. Instead, he was cold-shouldered by the President of the "land of the free."
Christian Herter (1895–1966). Secretary of State from '59 to '61. |
|
The meeting with Christian Herter was very low key, with no reporters allowed. |
Without the backing of the United States, the newborn republic in the heart of Africa was doomed. Russian support for the Democratic Republic of the Congo was seen as a "Communist plot" to seize the strategic Shinkolobwe uranium mine.
That could have triggered WW III before the Cuban Missile Crisis. Lumumba had to walk a tightrope between East and West to save his country from becoming another Korea.

Mobutu was directly involved in the arrest, torture, and death by firing squad of the legally elected prime minister of the Congo.

Moise Tshombe (19819–1969). |
Using the excuse that the new independent republic was a Soviet client state, Katanga seceded from the Congo, with Tshombe as its new "president."
To counter the "Communist threat" he asked the British Belgian government to send military advisers to train his secessionist Katangese army.
The UN mission to the Congo was called Operation Rumpunch (Romepunch)!!
Because of the Shinkolobwe uranium mine, the Congo was becoming a bone of contention between East and West. For a peacekeeping mission, the Secretary-General had to select a neutral, or non-aligned country. He chose papal Ireland because that country was officially a "Republic," and not part of the British Empire!!

The Irish 32nd battalion fought at the Siege of Jadotville. |
However, the British Belgium Force Publique suspected that the Irish contingent was pro-Congo, and a fierce battle ensued called the Siege of Jadotville
In September 1961, a company of 157 Irish UN troops was surrounded by a force of heavily armed Force Publique. The Irish soldiers, many of them still in their teens, were lightly armed, short of ammunition and supplies and unprepared for the situation.
Several Irish soldiers were killed in the siege and they were finally forced to surrender. When they arrived back in Ireland the "Fighting Irish" were not greeted as heroes!
On September 18, 1961, a Dag Hammarskjord double died in a plane crash!!
The real Day Hammarskjold was definitely in the Congo when the double died in the plane crash. The British Belgian Congo was an insane asylum . . . run by the inmates . . . . so anything was possible!

Many world leaders use doubles to foil assassination attempts....There is nothing criminal about that except when the double replaces the real person. The British Empire specializes in doubles....The real Joe Biden was sent to "Purgatory" in 1988 and replaced by Professor Joe Biden. The list of doubles is endless. All 4 Beatles were replaced by doubles in 1966.
This is probably the last photo of the real Dag Hammarskjold taken in Sept. 1961. |

Another dead giving-away is height:
In 1961, the year of his death, Dag Hjalmar Agne Hammarskjöld was in his mid-fifties. But he looked much younger: slim, fit and good-looking, with grey-blue eyes and straight sandy-coloured hair. He was five foot nine inches but seemed taller—so that the press frequently referred to him as ‘tall.’ He made an immediate and strong impression on everyone he met. (Williams, Who Killed Dag Hammarskjold?, p. 17).
The doppelgãnger was definitely shorter, as can be seen in the photos.
"Friends, Romans, freedom-loving Congolese, lend me your ears!" |
There was a plane crash that killed a person named "Dag Hammarskjold" on the night of September 18, but it was not the Secretary-General. Hammarskjold had no reason to sneak around Africa in the middle of the night on a "peace mission" to meet a rebel leader.
The plane had no military escorts, whereas the Secretary-General was always provided with fighter escorts when airborne.

Debris form the crash of the DC-6 was scattered over a wide area.

That crash was orchestrated by the Force Publique to get rid of the real Dag Hammarskjold. It was fiendishly successful because the next Secretary-General named U "Mr." Thant reversed all the peaceful policies of his predecessor!
