“US and allied intelligence brought the Germans over.”
Was that when German scientists came over to work on the atomic bomb?
Sorry Starlit, your theories are over my head! I need someone to explain them instead of me collaborating!
Our rating: True
We rate this claim TRUE because it is supported by our research. Operation Paperclip was a secret initiative launched by the U.S. government to recruit German engineers, doctors, physicists, chemists and other scientific experts for U.S. technological advancement, especially in anticipation of the Cold War. Many recruited German scientists did work for NASA and various other government entities. They were not held responsible for their war crimes.

Wernher von Braun, a rocket engineer, was instrumental in developing the first U.S. ballistic missile, the Redstone, and later the Saturn V rocket while serving as director of NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center. As a Nazi ideologue and member of the SS, he traveled to the Buchenwald concentration camp, where he “handpicked slaves to work for him as laborers,” said Jacobsen in a 2014 interview with NPR.

This is troubling to say the least. I was guessing but perhaps the Operation Paperclip is much much more envolved. I makes me sick at my stomach. Traitor everywhere.
