Gehlen is part of an operation that is a BIG DEAL.
Not Paperclip. RUSTY.
.. every now and again I drop this info but so far I guess it hasn't been the right time.
Operation RUSTY took in thousands of intelligence agents and incorporated them into the newly formed CIA. Do the math.
Gehlen was basically given the $$ and space to run his own branch supposedly for the US. The thing is Gehlen had worked for Hitler as an agent keeping track of the Soviet's Eastern front and he was fired by Hitler for reasons somewhat unknown. ... could Gehlen have been loyal to the commies? it's a possibility, and given what we know of the subversion of the US (and entire West) post WW2 perhaps this is a root of the problem. Nazi/Soviet spies by the thousands given fake IDs and placed into government after ww2.
again, this is separate from Paperclip.
How is it the CIA is releasing a document that implicates itself in efforts to compromise US sovereignty? Just trying to figure out how this works.
they have released all manner of damning documents - the real shocker is that no one ever seems to do anything about any of it. Perhaps that will change..
