“...not uncommon for their ilk to achieve high office and power...”

Agreed; it really sounds like comey’s fbi, brennan’s cia. Much of 0’s band of creeps.

Mossad tracked him down. He thought they were going to execute him, but they gave him a choice, which he accepted.

Would love to read more. Do you have any links or references? Thanks.

Sure.

Look up Gregory Douglas, author, and Heinrich Muller; read Muller's DC diaries 1948-1952.

Douglas is not the real author who is Peter (birth name) Stahl who is probably either Muller's nephew or more likely his illegitimate son by Leslie Stahl.

“Lets not forget that Mao in the 1950’s broke that record overtly killing by some estimates 60 million Chinese. It must also be remembered that he personally did little or none of the killing but had no trouble finding goons, thugs and henchmen who avidly did the murders. The other despots also had no trouble recruiting mass killers. People should always realize that such people continue to exist among us and the thin veneer of law, civility and religion has not proven to be impenetrable barriers to their vile actions given the right political circumstances. Americans are not immune to this behavior.”

Well said, and the key take-away for us in any piece about amoral thugs like Skorzeny and his ilk...

I don’t recall ever reading of an incident where Hitler personally dispatched any of his victims, but had plenty of goons like Heidrich, Eichmann, etc ready willing and able to do his wet work for him...

A quick look back as recently as the killings of innocents at Ruby Ridge and Waco prove your point...The “Land of the Free and Home of the Brave” no doubt has plenty of our own homegrown variety of thug...

Records are indeed made to be broken and if history offers any lessons I have no doubt the new record holder(s) live and breathe among us today...

He was acquitted when several British intel operators testified that they would have worn enemy uniforms too under similar circumstances.
