I’ve seen it suggested that he was guilty while she wasn’t.I guess,technically speaking,it’s possible that she wasn’t...but the fact that she stayed married to him is,in itself,adequate justification for Old Sparky.
Ehtel Rosenberg’s brother was the main witness for the prosecution. He stated that she translated to Russian and typed out all the notes and letters for her husband.
Did you read her request?
I have read a bit on the subject-the Rosenberg’s involvement (both of them-husband and wife) were verified as Soviet spies when a lot of Soviet-era intelligence was released.
The Venona Files (Soviet communications that we were able to read because we had broken their code) provided indisputable proof that both the Rosenbergs were involved.
Because we were able to decrypt their communications we were able to see what the Soviets were saying, but were mostly unable to positively confirm exactly what they were discussing until the fall of the Soviet Union enabled us to see their documentation and cross match to various elements.
The worldwide outrage against the Rosenbergs was orchestrated by the Soviets and the worldwide Communist party.
Morton Sobell, who was the last convicted person in that case who died in 2008 admitted he was spying for the Soviets (and said that Julius Rosenberg was as well) in an interview before he died. He did say Ethel Rosenberg was not part of the ring, but I don’t believe him. He spent his entire life lying about it.
The Rosenbergs were both committed communists and admitted that openly, saying they were being prosecuted
After reading extensively about the CPUSA and such (from a variety of different sources) the concept that his wife wasn’t involved given her commitment is unsupportable. That wasn’t the way those people operated.
“I guess,technically speaking,it’s possible that she wasn’t”
The NSA had highly secret knowledge she was guilty and could not afford to identify its sources. They had to depend on her brother to get the point across. She was a Russian agent and complicit.
the opposite is true, she was the most radical in the family and was the Kingpin of the operation. Connecting her brother in Los Alamos with her husband as secrets were passed. This was all absolutely proven when the venona papers were released in 91. And she loves Stalin more than her own kids. All she had to do to save her life was confess what happened.
She chose to die rather than betray the cause. Hope the bitch is still burning in hell
