-Caveat Lector- CIA admits employing Nazis Klaus Barbie: Used by the CIA as an intelligence source Files released by the Central Intelligence Agency in the United States have confirmed that World War II Nazi war criminals were employed by Western and Soviet intelligence agencies. However, the files dispell the widespread view that one of Hitler's closest allies, Gestapo chief Henrich Muller, survived World War II and went on to work for the CIA. As a body, the real winners of the Cold War were Nazi criminals, many of whom were able to escape justice Eli Rosenbaum, Justice Department They show they Muller died in 1945, but other former Nazi officers were employed by the CIA, in particular for their knowledge of the Soviet Union. A US Justice Department spokesman, Eli Rosenbaum, said the files demonstrated that the real winners of the Cold War were Nazi war criminals. Other declassified documents give more background information on key Nazi figures, and a report which suggests that Adolf Hitler's own doctor thought the Fuhrer was insane. Mr Rosenbaum said many Nazi war criminals "were able to escape justice because East and West became so rapidly focused after the war on challenging each other that they lost their will to pursue Nazi persecutors". Hitler's doctor predicted he would become the world's craziest criminal He deplored the CIA's use as intelligence sources of war criminals such as Klaus Barbie, the infamous "Butcher of Lyon". Barbie was eventually convicted of crimes against humanity by a French court. Rabbi Marvin Hier, founder of the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles, a Jewish human rights organisation, said the publication of the CIA material was "long overdue". One CIA document says that in 1937, Hitler's doctor thought he noticed growing signs of insanity in the Nazi leader before the start of World War II, and predicted he could become "the craziest criminal the world ever saw". Later that year, the doctor said "the swing towards insanity" seemed to have taken place. Waldheim 'not a CIA source' The files also shed light on former United Nations Secretary-General Kurt Waldheim, finding that he was not among CIA sources, as had been suspected by some historians. Waldheim, a former president of Austria, was barred from entering the US in 1987 after an investigation of his wartime activities as a German army lieutenant in the Balkans. The file on Waldheim suggests that the CIA knew little about him and that neither the US State Department nor other government agencies that had an interest in his appointment to the United Nations asked for a background check on him when he was a candidate for the job ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ foot tapping mentalism for all ages http://www.mp3.com/theehumancannonball <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
