My wife personally knows of people in Guatemala who descended from Nazis. Their grandparents escaped to a very Catholic country and were protected. One of the grandkids still has her grandfather's Nazi medals.

Of course, no ex-Nazis ever escaped to the US with or without the connivance of the US government.

I mean, it's not as if we hired an SS officer and Nazi party member who was the head of the Nazi rocket program (a program which was run with slave labor, dontcha know) to build our missiles and moon rockets.

Oh, wait, we did.

Nazis escaped to America - a very Protestant country - and lived here a long time before anyone cared.

Also, are you sure those people in Guatemala were Nazis or were they just Germans? And if they were Nazis, were they war criminals?

The simple fact is you have made a strange, unsupported claim here. You are claiming Nazis (with all the baggage that entails) were KNOWINGLY accepted by Catholics in Guatemala. We have no evidence of that. I am not even doubting the general idea of the story (i.e. that there are Germans or even Nazis in Guatemala), but Guatemala ain’t much of a Catholic country the last few decades, had a Protestant dictator (some called him a facist thug) 25 years ago already (ever hear of Rios Mont?), etc.

You’re not making much of a point here.
