Nixon took credit for the moon landings, he was just riding the coat-tails of what President Kennedy had set in motion.

Oh, the sainted JFK who knew too much and was going to out and then destroy the rogue intelligence community. So, his own party killed him.
Proggies in a nutshell. Ya know....I just had a thought....maybe there’s more than one reason zer0’s been so quiet lately.
Strange that there are virtually no blacks in Saudi, even though the muslim Arabian Peninsula was the #1 destination for African slaves for over a thousand years.
Several things in this article are wrong.
Firstly Von Braun was never some kind of nazi ideologue. If you wanted to work in rocketry you had to join the party. The same was true from train conductors and some other professions. There was never any evidence he was responsible for Dora or any of the slave labor camps in which V2 components were produced. Some of the others were not as innocent.
Still, what were we supposed to do? If we didn’t snap them up and use them to bolster our defense capabilities, it was a certainty the Soviets would - and they hoovered up their share of German scientists and engineers too. We had a cold war to win. We were willing to make a deal with the Commies to win WWII. Where’s the crying about that?
There they go again, pissing in the punch bowl.
Siwwy wabbit; now we have Juul and equal opportunity rocket scientists and engineers .
(you must be an Extremist right wing misogynistic homophobic transphobic Islamophobic xenophobe, my brother)
They already have.
So what if fully a third died of the procedure? The castrati commanded a high enough premium to more than offset the loss of inventory...
He didn’t oversee the camp. He did visit and knew what conditions were like, but he didn’t run it and its not like he was in any position to stop it.
So tell us, all knowing one, how long did the SS lock von Braun up before he finally became a full-fledged, signed-on-the-dotted-line Nazi?
CAN you tell us that ... or no?
Are you aware of ANY other history concerning von Braun beyond the ‘story’ you posted?
I didn’t read anything but accusations. Even war crimes must be proven with evidence. Not every Nazi was a war criminal. We didn’t hang every German soldier. Nor did we prosecute VW, Mercedes Benz or Krupp. Or Japanese industrialists.
Didn’t we grab onto the German Rocket scientists to keep the Soviets from getting them?
“Wernher von Braun, Kurt Debus and Arthur Rudolph. Or that all three were Nazi war criminals, guilty of mass murder.”
Bullshit.
Total bullshit.
Was Hanna Reitsch actually an ace? She was a test pilot, but I’m not aware that she ever flew in combat.
“In fact Von Braun admired and followed in his footsteps. Goddard never got the kind of funding Von Braun did”
Von Braun invented a new rocket motor design that could scale up to the Saturn V in size.
The very same design is in use today worldwide.
He was a giant, and nobody since has come close.
I have the same response to all liberal smear attempts now.
“So what.”
Socialists are cynical about society. And, concomitantly, socialists are naive about government.
How much soy does Tom Bower eat every day!?
Yep! We made lemonade out of our Nazi lemons.

Von Braun was a member of the SS.
Story was he had to join but other reports said he wore his SS uniform quite frequently and appeared to like it. There are pics out on the web.
