A Time Out for Some History

With disasters unfolding throughout the Arab world, and the U.S. government being held hostage by Tea Party political saboteurs, it is a good time for a look at some fancy and failed efforts by Nazi Germany to send invaders up onto U.S. shores.

Early in the history of this blog in 2006, I did a series of posts on the collusion of German theologians with Hitler's Nazism.

A newly revealed set of documents shows how, later, the Nazi's were willing to go to extremes to try to sabotage the United States, even as they knew the war effort was over. "Nazi sabotage." "Tea Party political saboteurs." It seems the efforts of political thugs at sabotage of one kind or another never end.
