That, my FRiend, is a money quote! Is that your own?
Yeah...what went on with the Nationalist Chinese and the American government between 1945 and 1949 was shameful.
John Service (Communist mole), Chi Chao-ting (Soviet agent) and Sol Adler (part of the Silvermaster Soviet spy group) all lived together in a house in China, and with the cooperation and approval of General Stillwell, coordinated their missives to their respective bosses back home to make sure the same anti-Chiang and pro-Yenan message was being pounded home from various angles in complete harmony with each other. All this aided at home by the likes of John Paton Davies, Harry Dexter White, Laughlin Currie and Alger Hiss.
All these Soviet agents and sympathizers hammered the upper level decision makers in the US government with the message that the Nationalists were corrupt collaborators with the Japanese, and that we should jettison them and have close ties with the Communists.
They did such a good job, all of them, that the victory of the Communists in 1949 was guaranteed. The massive gold loan approved by Henry Morgenthau was obstructed to the point it would have never helped, the arms and other war fighting materials were thrown over the sides of ships, planes, guns, ammo, etc, all this was the work of these scumbags.

I'm afraid so. Kinda hit me as I started listing all the Communist back-stabbing situations and noticed there was no end in sight.
Fascinating specifics on the loyal Soviet agents at State. I'd also forgotten why I had a funny association with the name "Stillwell." Wow. Remember the expression "Who lost China?" that the Soviet agents of influence in the U.S. press derided so condescendingly?
"Lost," my ear. Who murdered China and sold its children into slavery?
