It should be Dolchstosslegende. It originates in WW1, it blames part of the people itself and it's politicians for not supporting, if not downright sabotaging the war effort. The German capitulation is a prime example, some people just couldn't understand why the government had surrendered when German troops were still fighting (and holding) the frontier, and these people would have preferred to fight till the last man.
