The topic is the guilt of the Rosenbergs and the details of their trial and conviction. I guess you can say Willi Munzenberg has relevance. Pretty tenuous though. Every major, and many minor, governments spy on as many of their allies, enemies, competitors and possible competitors as they can.
All those you claim on the right who defended despots ended up fighting both communism and fascism. They same isn't true on the left. Many on the left defended Hitler when he was allied with Stalin and only became pro-war after the Nazis invaded the Soviet Union.
Wrong. Politics continued right up to the attack on Pearl Harbor. After that it became much more dangerous to voice anti-American sentiment of any kind and those who felt or thought that way went underground.
Look at Robert Scheer today
This is really off topic.
Yeah...let's forget about liberals from John Reed to Robert Scheer supporting genocidal maniacs. Let's just talk about how the Rosenbergs were railroaded.
Geeezzz...
You say threatening the Rosenbergs with the death penalty was like the "Inquisition".
The government knew they had committed treason. No doubt about it. If the government know that about a Nazi agent in the USA in 1942, would you still consider it to have been wrong to use threats of the death penalty to make the rat rat out out his fellow rats?
What about Al Qaeda? If the government has someone who planned 9/11 or the Cole bombing, is it fair to threaten the death penalty to get them to roll over on those plotting more attacks?
Or don't you believe Soviet Communism was not as big a threat as Al Qaeda and Nazism?
Soviet communists murdered more than Al Qaeda and Nazi Germany combined you know.
