cluded, dismissed this as radical rhetoric. Unfortunately, as shall be seen,
this might not be so far from the truth.
The Germans were defeated in World War II . . . but not the Nazis.

world. Many of them came to the United States and penetrated what
President Dwight D. Eisenhower termed “the military-industrial com-
plex.”
They escaped with the loot of Europe as well as rocket science and even
more exotic technologies. Some of this technology was so advanced that it
remains classified in U.S. government files even today.
Both Nazi science and ideology were brought to America in the aft er-
