Anybody else catch Rosenberg's alias as liberal? I was talking to a friend about how McCarthy was a but brutal, but there were so many that were accused were accually spies. I forgot to talk to him on how so many liberals defended and still defend these spies.

Much of the contents of the Venona decrypts have been collected into a volume called "The Black Book of Communism." It's dry reading, to be sure, but it is a documented ledger of human brutality beyond comprehension, written by the hand of Josef Stalin himself in many cases. The cold-blooded megalomania of the man was staggering.

"Yet despite providing conclusive evidence on the facts of high profile espionage cases, Venona is nevertheless tantalizing in what it does not reveal. It does not explain what motivated intelligent and highly educated Americans to betray a country which had conferred upon them the highest accolades."
I have always thought that the highly placed spies in the FDR administration, such as Hiss and White, expected to be in a swell position to be picked by the communists to rule the country in the event of a communist uprising/takeover of this country. They really believed this might happen within their lifetimes and wanted to be in a position to take advantage of both their top-level governmental experience and their communist contacts. They expected to be able to pick up the pieces after the communist revolution in the U.S. and then get to wield some REAL power as part of the new dictatorship.

"The project was so secret, even Presidents Roosevelt and Truman were unaware of its existence."
Because neither of them could be trusted with the information.

The new name for the Communist part in the US is "The Progressive Marxist Left."
They have infiltrated every aspect of American life through the avenue of Education of our young. They inculcate their ideology but teach them little else more. Arithmetic, English are seldom taught and in most cases when teaching American history they use Russian history books translated into English.
College students in the graduating class of 2006 barely can put sentences together and their spelling is atrocious.
