According to Ladislas Farago in the his book "The Last Days Of Patton", Ike fired Patton, because in his arrogance, ignorance and preoccupation with Russia potential postwar aims and "kid-glove" treatment of even former SS officers under his jurisdiction, was getting dangerously close to derailing Ike's "denazification" program.

Apologies for the run-on sentence.
