Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

A more mainstream account is Talbot's ""The Devil's Chessboard". A must read for all fans of democratic processes.

It is amusing to read on the Wikipedia page for Allen Dulles that, of all things, he was appalled by the Nazi treatment of German Jews and helped a number of German Jews ... escape to the United States from Nazi Germany. No word about the number of prominent Nazis that he helped to dodge justice, or about work with the Gehlen Org. Only the unauthorized "Operation Sunrise" is casually noticed. Yeah, Dulles established wide contacts with German émigrés, resistance figures, and anti-Nazi intelligence officers and received valuable information from Fritz Kolbe - but what he did with that information is an ineffable matter.
