OPERATION PAPERCLIP
After WWII ended in 1945, victorious
Russian and American intelligence teams began a treasure hunt throughout
occupied Germany for military and scientific booty. They were looking
for things like new rocket and aircraft designs, medicines, and electronics.
But they were also hunting down the most precious
"spoils" of all: the scientists whose work had nearly won the war for
Germany. The engineers and intelligence
officers of the Nazi War Machine.
The
U.S. Military rounded up Nazi scientists and brought them
to America. It had originally intended merely to debrief them
and send them back to Germany. But when it realized the
extent of the scientists knowledge and expertise, the War Department decided it
would be a waste to send the scientists home. Following the discovery of flying
discs (foo fighters), particle/laser beam weaponry in
German military bases, the War Department decided that NASA and the CIA must
control this technology, and the Nazi engineers that had worked on this
technology.
There was only one problem: it was illegal.
U.S. law explicitly prohibited Nazi officials from
immigrating to America--and as many as three-quarters of the scientists in
question had been committed Nazis.
Data-Points:
Convinced that German scientists could help
America's postwar efforts,
President Harry Truman agreed in September 1946 to authorize "Project
Paperclip," a program to bring selected German scientists to work on
America's behalf during the "Cold War"
However, Truman expressly excluded anyone
found "to have been a member of the Nazi party and more than a nominal
participant in its activities, or an active supporter of Naziism or militarism."
The War Department's Joint Intelligence
Objectives Agency (JIOA) conducted background
investigations of the scientists. In February 1947, JIOA Director Bosquet Wev submitted the first set of scientists' dossiers to the
State and Justice Departments for review.
The Dossiers were damning. Samauel Klaus, the State Departments representative on the
JIOA board, claimed that all the scientists in this
first batch were "ardent Nazis." Their visa requests were
denied.
Wev was furious. He wrote a memo warning that "the best intrests of
the United
States
have been subjugated to the efforts expended in 'beating a dead Nazi horse.'" He
also declared that the return of these scientists to
Germany, where they could be exploited by
America's enemies, presented a "far greater security threat to this
country than any former Nazi affiliations which they may have had or even any
Nazi sympathies that they may still have."
When the JIOA
formed to investigate the backgrounds and form dossiers on the Nazis, the Nazi
Intelligence leader Reinhard Gehlen met with the CIA director Allen Dulles. Dulles and
Gehlen hit it off immediatly. Gehlen was a master
spy for the Nazis and had infilitrated
Russia with his vast Nazi Intelligence network. Dulles
promised Gehlen that his Intelligence unit was safe in
the CIA.
Apparently, Wev
decided to sidestep the problem. Dulles had the scientists dossier's re-written to eliminate incriminating evidence. As
promised, Allen Dulles delivered the Nazi Intelligence unit to the CIA, which
later opened many umbrella projects stemming from Nazi mad research. (MK-ULTRA /
ARTICHOKE, OPERATION MIDNIGHT CLIMAX)
Military Intelligence "cleansed" the files
of Nazi refrences. By 1955, more than 760 German
scientists had been granted citizenship in the
U.S. and given prominent positions in
the American scientific community. Many had been longtime
members of the Nazi party and the Gestapo, had conducted experiments on humans
at concentration camps, had used slave labor, and had
comitted other war crimes.
In a 1985 expose in the Bulletin of the
Atomic Scientists Linda Hunt wrote that she had examined more than 130 reports
on Project Paperclip subjects--and every one "had been changed to eliminate the
security threat classification."
President Truman, who had explicitly
ordered no comitted Nazis to be
admitted under Project Paperclip, was evidently never aware that his
directive had been violated. State Department archives and the memoirs of
officials from that era confirm this. In fact, according to Clare Lasby's book Operation Paperclip, project officials "covered
their designs with such secrecy that it bedeviled
their own President; at Potsdam he denied their activities and undoubtedly enhanced
Russian suspicion and distrust," quite possibly fueling the Cold War even further.
A good example of how these dossiers were
changed is the case of Wernher von Braun. A
September 18, 1947, report on the German rcoket scientist stated, "Subject is regarded as a potential
security threat by the Military Governor."
The following February, a new security
evaluation of Von Braun said, "No derogatory information is available on the
subject...It is the opinion of the Military Governor that he may not constitute
a security threat to the United
States."
Here are a few of the 700 suspicious
characters who were allowed to immigrate through
Project Paperclip.
ARTHUR RUDOLPH; During the war, Rudolph was operations director of the Mittelwerk factory at the Dora-Nordhausen concentration camps, where 20,000 workers died
from beatings, hangings, and starvation. Rudolph had been a member of the Nazi
party since 1931; a 1945 military file on him said simply: "100% Nazi, dangerous
type, security threat..!! Suggest internment."
But the JIOA's final dossier
on him said there was "nothing in his records indicating that he was a war
criminal or and ardent Nazi or otherwise objectionable." Rudolph became a
US citizen and later designed the Saturn 5 rocket used
in the Apollo moon landings. In 1984, when his war record was
finally investigated, he fled to
West
Germany.
WERNHER VON BRAUN; From 1937 to
1945, von Braun was the technical director of the Peenemunde rocket research center,
where the V-2 rocket --which devasted
England--was developed. As noted previously, his dossier was
rewritten so he didn't appear to have been an
enthusiastic Nazi.
Von Braun worked on guided missles for the U.S. Army and was later director of NASA's
Marshall Space Flight Center. He became a celebrity in the 1950s and early 1960s,
as one of Walt Disney's experts on the "World of Tomorrow." In 1970, he became
NASA's associate administrator.
KURT BLOME; A high-ranking Nazi scientist, Blome told U.S. military interrogators in 1945 that he had been
ordered 1943 to experiment with plague vaccines on concentration camp prisoners.
He was tried at Nuremberg in 1947 on charges of practicing euthanasia
(extermination of sick prisoners), and conducting experiments on humans.
Although acquitted, his earlier admissions were well known, and it was generally accepted that he had indeed participated in the
gruesome experiments.
Two months after his
Nuremberg acquittal, Blome was interviewed at Camp David, Maryland, about biological warfare. In 1951, he was hired by
the U.S. Army Chemical Corps to work on chemical warfare. His
file neglected to mention Nuremberg.
MAJOR GENERAL WALTER SCHREIBER; According to Linda Hunt's article, the
US military tribunal at
Nuremberg heard evidence that "Schreiber had assigned doctors
to experiment on concentration camp prisoners and had made funds available for
such experimentation." The assistant prosecutor said the evidence would have
convicted Schreiber if the Soviets, who held him from 1945 to 1948, had made him
available for trial.
Again, Schreiber's Paperclip file made no
mention of this evidence; the project found work for him at the
Air Force School of Medicine at Randolph Field in
Texas. When columnist Drew Pearson publicized the
Nuremberg evidence in 1952, the negative publicity led the
JIOA, says Hunt, to arrange "a visa and a job for
Schreiber in Argentina, where his daughter was living." On May 22,
1952, he was flown to Buenos Aires.
HERMANN BECKER-FREYSING and SIEGFRIED RUFF; These two, along with Blome, were amoung the 23
defendants in the Nuremberg War Trials "Medical Case." Becker-Freysing was convicted and sentenced to 20 years in prison
for conducting experiments on Dachau inamtes, such as starving them, then force-feeding them
seawater that had been chemically altered to make it
drinkable. Ruff was acquitted (in a close decision) on charges that he had
killed as many as 80 Dachau inmates in a low-pressure
chamber designed to simulate altitudes in excess of 60,000 feet. Before their
trial, Becker-Freysing and Ruff were
paid by the Army Air Force to write reports about their grotesque
experiments.
GENERAL REINHARD
GEHLEN; It was five years after the end of WW2 but one
of Hitler's chief intelligence officers was still on the job. From a walled-in
compound in Bavaria, General Reinhard Gehlen oversaw a vast network of intelligence agents spying
on Russia. His top aides were Nazi zealots who had committed
some of the most notorious crimes of the war. Gehlen and his SS united were hired,
and swiftly became agents of the CIA when they revealed their massive records on
the Soviet Union to the
US.
Gehlen derived much of his information from his role in one
of the most terrible atrocities of the war: the torture, interrogation and
murder by starvation of some four million Soviet prisoners. Prisoners who refused to cooperate were often
tortured or summarily executed. May were executed even
after they had given information, while others were simply left to starve to
death. As a result, Gehlend and members of his
organization maneuvered to make sure they were captured by advancing American troops rather than
Russians, who would have executed them immediatly.
Two months before
Germany surrendered in 1945, the Gehlen organization made its move. "Gehlen and a small group of his most senior officers
carefully microfilmed the vast holding on the
USSR in the military section of the German army's general
staff. They packed the film in watertight steel drums and secretly buried it in
a remote mountain meadow scattered throughout the Austrian
Alps.
General William Donovan and Allen Dulles of
the CIA were tipped off about Gehlen's surrender and his offer of Russian intelligence in
exchange for a job. The CIA was soon jockeyeing with
military intelligence for authority over Gehlen's
microfilmed records--and control of the German spymaster. Dulles arranged for a
private intelligence facility in West
Germany
to be established, and named it the Geheln
Organization. Gehlen promisd
not to hire any former SS, SD, or Gestapo members; he
hired them anyway, and the CIA did not stop him. Two of Gehlen's early recruits were Emil Augsburg and Dr. Franz
Six, who had been part of mobile killing squads, which
killed Jews, intellectuals, and Soviet partisans wherever they found them. Other
early recruits included Willi Krichbaum, senior Gestapo leader for southeastern Europe, and the Gestapo chiefs of
Paris and Kiel, Germany.
With the encourgement of the CIA, Gehlen
Org (Licio Gelli) set up
"rat lines" to get Nazi war criminals out of Europe so they wouldn't be
prosecuted. By setting up transit camps and issuing phony passports, the Gehlen Org
helped more than 5,000 Nazis leave Europe and relocate around the world, especially in South
and Central
America. There, mass
murderers like Klaus Barbie (the butcher of Lyons) helped governments set up death squads in
Chile, Argentina, El
Salvador, and elsewhere.
KLAUS BARBIE; Known as the Nazi butcher of
Lyons, France during World War 2, Barbie was part of the SS which was
responsible for the and death of thousands of French people under the Germany
occupation.
HEINRICH RUPP; Some of Rupp's best work was
done for the CIA, after he was imported in Operation
Paperclip. Rupp has been convicted of bank fraud. He
was an operative for the CIA and is deeply involved in the Savings and Loan
scandals. A federal jury has indicated they believe testimony that Rupp, the
late CIA Director William Casey - then Reagan's campaign manager, and Donald
Gregg, now U.S. Ambassador to South Korea, flew with George Bush to Paris in
1980, during the election in which Bush was on the ticket with Ronald Reagan.
The testimony states that three meetings were held on
October 19 and 20 at the Hotel Florida and Hotel Crillion. The subject? According to
the court testimony, the meetings were to sabotage President Jimmy Carter's
reelection campaign by delaying the release of
American hostages in Iran. The hostages were released
on January 20, 1981, right after Reagan and Bush were sworn into office.
Iran was promised return of its
frozen assets in the United
States
and the foundation for the Iran- Contra deal was set into motion.
LICIO GELLI; Head of a 2400
member secret Masonic Lodge, P2, a neo-fascist organization, in Italy that
catered to only the elite, Gelli had high connections
in the Vatican, even though he was not a Catholic. P2's membership is totally secret and not even available to its Mother Lodge in
England. Gelli was responsible for
providing Argentina with the Exocet missile.
He was a double agent for the CIA and the KGB. He assisted many former Nazi high
officials in their escape from Europe to Central America. He had close ties with the Italian Mafia. Gelli was a close associate of Benito Mussolini. He was also closely affiliated with Roberto Calvi, head of the scandal-ridden Vatican Bank. Calvi was murdered. Gelli's secret
lodge consisted of extremely important people, including armed forces
commanders, secret service chiefs, head of Italy's financial police, 30
generals, eight admirals, newspaper editors, television and top business
executives and key bankers - including Calvi. Licio Gelli and others in P2 were
behind the assasination of Pope John Paul 1.
The central figure in
Europe and South America that linked the CIA, Masonic
Lodge, Vatican, ex-Nazis and several South American governments,
the Italian government and several international banks was Licio Gelli. He, with Klaus Barbie
and Heinrich Rupp, met with Ronald R. Rewald in
Uruguay to arrange for the Argentine purchase of the
French-made Exocet missile, used in the
Falkland Island attack to kill british soldiers.
Who is Gelli and
why was he so important?
To understand Gelli, one must understand the complex
post war years of Europe. The biggest threat to Europe in pre-war times was Communism - it was the great
fear of Communism that gave birth to the Fascists and the Nazis. Though both
sides were dreaded, the Fascists represented right-wing government, while the
Communist represent left-wing government. It was the
right-wing that the
United
States
and the Catholic Church desired over Communism - because Communism would destroy
the capitalistic system. This is why the CIA and the
Vatican had go through with
Operation Paperclip. The Nazis had massive amounts of Soviet intelligence, had
infilitrated Communist partisans, and were in no way
going to be given up to the Soviet Union.
Gelli worked both sides. He helped to found the Red
Brigade, spied on Communist partisans and worked for the Nazis at the same time,
a double agent. He helped establish the Rat Line, which assisted the flight of
high ranking Nazi officials from
Europe to South America, with passports supplied by the
Vatican and with the full acknowledgment and blessing of the
United
States
intelligence community. While on one hand, the U.S. participated in the war
crime tribunals of key Nazi officials and maintained an alliance with the
Communist Soviet Union, secretly, the U.S. was preparing for the cold war and
needed the help of Nazis in the eventual struggle the U.S. would have with the
Soviet Union. Gelli's agreement with
U.S. intelligence to spy on the Communists after the war
was instrumental in saving his life. He was responsible for the murder and
torture of hundreds of Yugoslavian partisans.
The
Vatican provided support to Nazis and Fascists because the
Communists were the real threat to the Church's survival. The Italian Communists
would have taxed the Church's vast holdings and the Church has had a dismal
experience with Communist governments throughout the world - where religious
freedom was stamped out.
Gelli was well connected with the
Vatican from the days of the Rat Line and he worked for
American intelligence, as well. Gelli formed the P-2
Masonic Lodge-which did not follow the direction of any Grand Lodge-and it was supplied with a sum of $10 million a month by the CIA.
Its membership was a Who's Who in the intelligence, military and Italian
community. So prominent was Gelli's influence, that he
was even a guest of honor at the 1981 inauguration of
President Ronald Reagan.
Gelli used blackmail in order to gain prominent members of
his P-2 lodge, its membership is estimated at 2400 members, including 300 of the
most powerful men in the Western World.. He was a close
friend of Pope Paul VI, Juan Peron of
Argentina, Libyan Dictator Muammar el-Qaddafi, and many high
officials in the Italian and American governments - he is also reported to have
had some financial dealings with the George Bush for President campaign.
Gelli and his P-2 lodge had staggering connections to
banking, intelligence and diplomatic passports. The CIA poured hundreds of millions of dollars into
Italy in the form of secret subsidies for political
parties, labor unions and communications businesses.
At the same time the Agency continued its relationship with far- right and
violent elements as a back-up should a coup be needed
to oust a possible Communist government. This covert financing
was exposed by the Prime Minister of
Italy in a speech to Parliament. He indicates that more
than 600 people in Italy still remain on the payroll of the CIA. Licio Gelli was an ardent Nazi and
a perfect asset of the CIA. As part of Reinhard Gehlen's intelligence team, he had excellent contacts. Licio was the go between for the CIA and the
Vatican through his P2 Lodge.
Project Paperclip was
stopped in 1957, when West
Germany
protested to the U.S. that these efforts had stripped it of "scientific
skills." There was no comment about supporting Nazis. Paperclip may have ended
in 1957, but as you can see from Licio Gelli and his international dealings with the CIA in
Italy/P2, and Heinrich Rupp with his involvement in October Surprise, the
ramifications of Paperclip are world-wide. The Nazis became employed CIA agents,
engaging in clandestine work with the likes of George Bush, the CIA, Henry Kissenger, and the Masonic P2 lodge. This is but one of the
results of Operation Paperclip. Another umbrella project that was spawned from Paperclip was
MK-ULTRA.
A secret laboratory was
established and funded by CIA director, Allen Dulles in Montreal, Canada at
McGill University in the Allen Memorial Institute headed by psychiatrist Dr.
Ewen Cameron. For the next several years Dr. Ewen Cameron waged his
private war in Canada. What is ironic about Dr. Cameron is that he served
as a member of the Nuremberg tribunal who heard the cases against the Nazi
doctors.
When it was at its height in drug
experiments, operation MK-ULTRA was formed. This was the brainchild of Richard Helms who later came to be a CIA
director. It was designed to defeat the "enemy" in its brain-washing techniques. MK-ULTRA had another arm involved
in Chemical and Biological Warfare (CBW) known as
MK-DELTA. The "doctors" who participated in these experiments used some of the
same techniques as the Nazi "doctors". Techniques used by Dr. Cameron and
previous Nazi scientists include electro shock, sleep deprivation, memory
implantation, memory erasure, sensory modification, psychoactive drug
experiments, and many more cruel practices.
Project Paperclip brought us MK-ULTRA.
Paperclip ultimately brought in key players involved in the Assassination of
Pope 1, October Surprise (sabotage of Carter's peace talks), and a great many
other things still classified to this day. The results of Project Paperclip were
devastating, and very far reaching. I guess that is
what you would expect from collaborating with Nazis.
This research shows that the OSS/CIA that
was formed in the National Security Act, the same
agency that employed hundreds of Nazis, has been in alliance with the
Vatican through various Agency connections such as Licio Gelli. The
CIA/Vatican alliance that Assassinated Pope John Paul 1, JFK, and hundreds of dictators of 3rd world countries is the
Illuminati.
The Bavarian Illuminati has been around for centuries in one way or
another. It's presence in the 20th century is the
direct result of the Nazis. The Nazi connections to the occult and the Bavarian
Thule Society were parallel to the American members of
33rd degree Freemasonry. When the Operation Paperclip was
successfully executed, the Nazi element of the Bavarian
Thule society was fused with the American members of
Freemasonry to create the Illuminati.
Operation Paperclip, MK-ULTRA, October
Surprise, and George Bush are all facets of the Illuminati, a group whose ideals are rooted in the occult,
and dedicated to world domination.
Soon after the American Revolution, John
Robinson, a professor of rural philosophy at
Edinburgh University in Scotland and member of a Freemason lodge, said that he was asked to join the Illuminati.
After studying the group, he concluded that the purposes of the Illuminati were not compatible with his beliefs.
In 1798, he published a book called "Proofs
Of A Conspiracy," which states:
"An association has been formed for the
express purpose of rooting out all the religious establishments and overturning
all the existing governments.... The leaders would rule the World with
uncontrollable power, while all the rest would be employed as tools of the
ambition of their unknown superiors."
The CIA and the
Vatican have rooted out all the religious establishemnts in the world. The CIA has overthrown and set
up dictators under their control all over the world. The CIA and the
Vatican have fullfilled the
purpose of the Illuminati. The CIA
and the Vatican _are_ the Illuminati.
