U.S. Said to Embrace Alleged Nazi Allies
By SIOBHAN McDONOUGH, Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON - The U.S. government threw moral qualms to the wind in employing
ex-Nazis after World War II, contend historians who examined a mountain of
declassified papers released Thursday.
The government "dishonored the memory of the victims of the Holocaust and
American soldiers who died," said Elizabeth Holtzman, member of a
government-appointed group studying millions of pages of files from that
era.
Reinhard Gehlen, for example, was recruited by the CIA after World War II
because he was chief of army intelligence for the Nazis on the Eastern
Front, where most of the mass killings of Jews occurred. Gehlen was
undoubtedly involved in the brutal interrogation of Russian prisoners of
war, Holtzman said.
Gehlen was brought to America and then sent back to Germany to set up a
major spy network for the United States. First, he worked for the CIA; later
his operation became the West German intelligence service and he was thought
to have employed Nazi war criminals.
He is just one example of how the FBI and other U.S. agencies ignored the
murky pasts of alleged Nazi collaborators, many living in the United States,
because the government saw them as useful during the Cold War, according to
the records released at the National Archives.
