Ops, guess the actual buddies with the Nazis were US all along.

I think it is worth reading Annie Jacobsens Operation Paperclip to understand exactly how the US and EU just overlooked prominent Nazis

Instead of hanging them, burning them and scattering their ashes in a river like the Soviets demanded at the Nuremberg trials

From wikipedia:

Waldheim was the fourth Secretary-General of the United Nations from 1972 to 1981, and President of Austria from 1986 to 1992. While he was running for the latter office in the 1986 election, the revelation of his service in Greece and Yugoslavia, as an intelligence officer in Nazi Germany’s Wehrmacht during World War II, raised international controversy.

Holy shit I had no idea! An actual intelligence officer too, not some low-level draftee.

I knew about this for a while yet when I told others nobody really believed me…
