A bunch of regular "Lord Haw-Haws!"
For those who don't get the reference, Lord Haw-Haw was a far right wing British aristocrat who not only sided with Hitler during the war, but had gone over to Germany to make broadcasts for the Nazis, laughing out loud about Luftwaffe bombings and V2 attacks. After the war, a British soldier captured him after recognizing his voice from the radio.

Yes. He was put on trial, found guilty, and hanged.
Taking a quick look at his Wikipedia entry, I'm sorry to say he was actually American born, and a naturalized British citizen, who later became a German citizen.
