And don’t forget its role in the foundation and ensuring the ongoing
viability of the modern state of Israel. Whether from guilt over
centuries of persecution of Jews as “Christ-killers” (culminating in
the murderous actions of aforesaid Nazis), or as part of some
fulfilment of some doctrinal prophecy about the second coming of their
Messiah, or both. This is why religious books should never be used as
guides for what is right and wrong.

I knew, from “A Man Called Intrepid”, that Churchill and Roosevelt had
all but given up on Kennedy as effectively a Nazi sympathizer. So they
were working around him (through Sir William Stephenson, a.k.a.
“Intrepid”) to coordinate actions (entirely unofficially, and without
the knowledge or agreement of Congress) even before the US officially
entered the war.

But I didn’t know Joe had gone as far as betraying his country’s
secrets to the Germans. Wasn’t the penalty for being a spy death
by firing squad?

As usual, one law for ordinary people, another law for the elite ...
