Look at the long term effects. The entire government was infected with socialists and communists because of their actions.

I read somewhere we told the Russians that “Our Germans are better than your Germans.”

We needed their expertise. Can you imagine the setback in our missile program if the communist grabbed them?

I also believe we did not do anything to the japanese doctors who experimented on allied prisoners with biological diseases. I think they got a slap on the wrist. Maybe one or two was jailed or executed.

We didn’t really have much of a choice. Pretty much the only alternatives were let the Russians get them or kill them to keep that from happening.

Just for fun and adding sauce look up Operation Gladio which involves the Vatican, the OSS now the CIA and the Mafia that was struck just before the end of WW2

There is a Netflix series centered around Operation Paper clip. I believe it is called Hunters. It is about hunting down Nazis that came to America as part of Operation Paper clip.

“Wow. Didn’t know that.”

We learned invaluable information from those japs, cruel as it may have been.

There were three German scientists in the control room during the Apollo 11 mission and they were conspicuously absent from the television coverage.

(Whether it was because of the positions they held in an enemy regime or it was because of the critical role former enemies played in the apex of American progress, I simply don't know.)

Our German scientists were better than their German scientists.

The head Japanese doctor was never tried. It is estimated he had 500k people kiled through frostbite, starvation, plaqgues and diseases test etc.

The researchers involved in Unit 731 were secretly given immunity by the United States in exchange for the data they gathered through human experimentation. The Americans did not try the researchers so that the information and experience gained in bio-weapons could be co-opted into their biological warfare program, much as they had done with German researchers in Operation Paperclip.

Like how to freeze someone's arms solid in subzero weather and then shatter them with a hammer?

Okay, that’s where I saw it. I’m not too big on watching tv. But it is a good series.
