Publisher's Summary
The “remarkable” story of America's secret post-WWII science programs (The Boston Globe), from the New York Times best-selling author of Area 51.
In the chaos following World War II, the US government faced many difficult decisions, including what to do with the Third Reich's scientific minds. These were the brains behind the Nazis' once-indomitable war machine. So began Operation Paperclip, a decades-long, covert project to bring Hitler's scientists and their families to the United States.
Many of these men were accused of war crimes, and others had stood trial at Nuremberg; one was convicted of mass murder and slavery. They were also directly responsible for major advances in rocketry, medical treatments, and the US Space Program. Was Operation Paperclip a moral outrage, or did it help America win the Cold War?
Drawing on exclusive interviews with dozens of Paperclip family members, colleagues, and interrogators, and with access to German archival documents (including previously unseen papers made available by direct descendants of the Third Reich's ranking members), files obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, and dossiers discovered in government archives and at Harvard University, Annie Jacobsen follows more than a dozen German scientists through their postwar lives and into a startling, complex, nefarious, and jealously guarded government secret of the 20th century.
In this definitive, controversial look at one of America's most strategic, and disturbing, government programs, Jacobsen shows just how dark government can get in the name of national security.

A Word From The Curator:
Would you believe it if I told you of a time, long ago, when using the internet didn't make us want to kill ourselves?
Some of you won't, but long ago, before it was colonized by , GOOGLE, AMAZON & THE NSA there was actually a time when people actually controlled their online presence and could speak freely on independent blogs actually controlled by users hosted for free at long lost paradises like TUMBLR & GEOCITIES, before they were INVADED and OBLITERATED by the VENTURE CAPITALIST FILTH of the greater Santa Clara, California metropolitan area (reportedly an absolutely lovely area, unlike today’s internet - but who among us would, or could pay $4,250 USD per month for an 0 bedroom half-bath “studio” apartment near transit!?).
A time when Shareaza & cracked bootleg copies of Limewire Pro (I mean, what did they expect…) reigned supreme and the only real limitation to what one could say online and how much free "content" users could upload and download between one another were the terrible, screeching 56.6kbps dial-up internet connections some of us still had - but for those with anything from a 768kbps DSL connection and up it was a true paradise. A place that stood for something, once; The world might have sucked, but at least there was an alternative, and a naive hope that the world would become more like the internet, rather than the internet becoming as bad as the world, followed by both the world and the internet becoming worse, still, than even that.
Millennials and Gen X will know what I speak of all too well, while our children - the zoomers, will have only heard legends of this egalitarian time before anybody had ever heard of an ‘incel' and everything was free if you were broke enough to look for it, when YouTube hadn’t been colonized by IN-Q-TEL via “Alphabet Inc.” (aka Google) yet, and PayPal was a terrible service of opaque legality we all hated ferociously, and all used exclusively, because Twitter hadn’t sprouted the growth that mutated into a terrible bank of opaque legality we all hate and use begrudgingly called BLOCK INC. (aka Cash App) yet. A time when cryptocurrency was just the tokens you bought using the Moneygram phone at CVS so you could buy shrooms on The Silk Road, before the Dread Pirate Roberts aka Ross William Ulbricht was tracked down by the unelected, permanent secret government of the former American republic and it’s colonies and given 134 years in a CMU, fascist jargon for the modern-day oubliette used by the feds in the Guantanamo Bay, Cuba colony and now …Illinois? basically for making a better craigslist and using his platform to spread his moderately insightful Ron-Paul-era libertarian philosophy - one that, like RFK Jr.’s presidential campaign - had been deprogramming Americans from the left-right red-blue dichotomy used by the CIA to control US election outcomes post 1963.
You read that right. I wasn’t alive for it either, but much like the internet, there was actually a time when the UNITED STATES actually stood for something. It didn’t start out that way, nor is being an American in any way a source of pride today, but THERE WAS A TIME. A time that instead of shoving 100-Billion-Dollar cluster bomb shipments down taxpayers unwilling throats to escalate a civil war in the former Soviet Union which, mind you, the US is explicitly responsible for the existence of - Americans only begrudgingly involved ourselves in foreign wars, and PRAISED THE SOVIETS AND COMMUNIST CHINA FOR FIGHTING NAZIS before joining them as ALLIES in battle.
While nobody knew it at the time, and the first symptom of it would only become visible to the American people decades later, and nearly a century before it was studied and documented to the satisfaction of American and even most foreign scholars, and will never be acknowledged by the present government for reasons that will become clear momentarily, but the America that went to war in WWII’s European theatre would be the final, but most historically significant, casualty of that valiant battle to eradicate the virus of fascism from the face of the Earth.
What returned was a Trojan Horse, carrying in its veins the poison spores of the Nazi Reich’s invasive tentacular fascism that would, with the speed of a serpent’s jaw upon its victim, intertwine itself so deeply and thoroughly within and throughout the victorious American Republic’s fragile institutions of democratic governance, which had not yet reached maturity and had only sprouted the first buds of actual representative governance a few decades prior, the first of them to bloom being woman’s right to vote, the last of them the black vote and civil rights act.
No new bud would emerge once the infection was in place, and many of existing buds would never blossom or fall off the vine altogether. The cause for this would not be known for many years to come, a reflection of the Devilishness of the Nazi virus’s greatest triumph; Officially, there is no such thing as the 4th Nazi Reich.
But, as has been conclusively and exhaustively proven by the great patriots, humanists and scholars of our time - and can be shown to you, dear reader, if you are ready for a truth so heinous and yet so evident in its relation to all that you have seen with your own eyes and contemplated privately - explaining so much of the world around you that at once, as I too and still do feel upon my own bittersweet enlightenment as to the truth of our country; At once devastated and betrayed, enraged, infuriated, energized and eyes opened - having no choice but to act upon in a burst of selfless revolutionary valor and clarity as to the task at hand most heavily implied by that foulest and truest of truths.
“Officially”, there is no such thing as the 4th Reich of the Nazi menace; But if that were true, it would’ve been no trick at all - much less the most insidious and devilish trick that has long deceived us all I have described.
Those who are ready, those who have privately suspected any of the possibilities I have implied without expressly stating in this most urgent open letter to all citizens, patriots and foreign allies concerned with the trajectory of our nations and, frankly, whether there is a future for humanity at all should this trajectory offered by our current governments offering only unending warfare, willful environmental devastation at a planetary scale, oppression, exploitation and even wholesale slaughter of workers, men, women, children, the wholesale obliteration of forests and plant life worldwide - the ONLY source of the very AIR we breath, an accelerating trend of animal extinctions, increasingly devastating hurricane, tornado, drought, monsoon and wildfire seasons in widening tornado alleys, expanding fire and flood zones, and lengthening seasons for all types of such natural disasters, — THE TIME TO UNITE AND RISE UP HAS COME; The erosion of human rights in all corners and demographics except the demographic of the RULING ELITES CAN NOT BE ALLOWED TO CONTINUE UNCHECKED.
Women! Men! Blacks! Whites! Native/Latinx! LGBTQ! Straight! Working-Class! Homeless! Parents! Singles! Orphans! Disabled! Depressed! Elderly! Overworked! Unemployed! Migrant Workers! Deep-Rooted Local Families! Religious! Agnostic! Atheistic! Cosmopolitan City-Slickers! Laid Back Country Boys & Girls! Hillbillies! Leftists! Libertarians! Hippies! Crips! Bloods! Rednecks!
IF YOU ARE BROKE, STRUGGLING & ARE HERE - YOU ARE US!
WE HAVE ALL BEEN GETTING FUCKED BY THE RULING ELITE
FOR GENERATIONS, BY THE SAME NAZI SCUM THAT KILLED JFK
AND HAVE RUN THE WORLD EVER SINCE.
They WANT you to say: ‘Illuminati’, ’NWO’, ‘Cabal’, ‘elites’ etc.
STOP IT. IDENTIFY THE NAZI MENACE BY ITS NAME.
THE CIA.
We’re making you a place on the internet that doesn’t suck, come visit RFKLibrary.org and pirate the truth for free, cause making THE WORLD not suck is a bit more of an ask, and we’re for sure going to need your help with the latter.
