HELLO????

We didn't hire Nazis to translate German documents during WWII.

Many Germans, Italians and Japanese Americans spent the war in internment camps, not "working for" their sworn enemy, us. (Not saying that everyone who was interned was an enemy, but during a shootin' war it was prudent to avoid the unnecessary risk).

We haven't always been this stupid!

Sorry, I thought we were talking about the postwar period, when Reinhard Gehlen went to work for Western intelligence agencies, reactivating what was left of the RSHA stay-behind networks that they had operating behind Soviet lines, and other Germans went to work for various CI orgs.
