World News See other World News Articles Title: Joe McCarthy Was Right: Soviet Agents Infiltrated US Gov't in WWII, Cold War The opening of the Soviet archives in 1995 revealed that more than 300 communist members or supporters had infiltrated the American government. The Lie: Soviet agents had no influence on U.S. foreign policy during World War II. Credible Americans began ringing the alarm bells as early as 1918. To foment a desired revolution infiltration of a nations institutions is necessary (as discussed here). The Truth: The Soviet Union conspired to force Japan to attack the United States. Harry Dexter White, who was later proven to be a Soviet agent, carried out a mission to provoke Japan into war with the United States. When U.S. Secretary of State Cordell Hull allowed the peacemakers in Roosevelts administration to put together a modus vivendi that had real potential, White drafted a 10-point proposal that the Japanese were certain to reject. White passed a copy of his proposal to Hull, and this final American offerthe so-called Hull notewas presented to the Japanese on November 26, 1941.[1] The Hull note, which was based on two memoranda from White, was a declaration of war as far as the Japanese were concerned. The Hull note destroyed any possible peace settlement with the Japanese, and led to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. In this regard, historian John Koster writes: Harry Dexter White, acting under orders from Soviet intelligence, pulled the strings by which Cordell Hull and [State Department expert on Far Eastern Affairs] Stanley Hornbeck handed the Japanese an ultimatum that was tantamount to a declaration of warwhen both the Japanese cabinet and the U.S. military were desperately eager for peace.
Harry Dexter White knew exactly what he was doing. The man himself remains a mystery, but the documents speak for themselves. Harry Dexter White gave us Pearl Harbor.[2] The Soviets had also planted numerous other agents in the Roosevelt administration. For example, Harold Glasser, a member of Morgenthaus Treasury staff, provided intelligence from the War Department and the White House to the Soviets. Glassers reports were deemed so important by the NKVD that 74 reports generated from his material went directly to Josef Stalin. One historian writes of the Soviet infiltration of the U.S. government and its effect on Roosevelt: These spies, plus the hundreds in other U.S. agencies at the time, including the military and the OSS, permeated the administration in Washington, and, ultimately, the White House, surrounding FDR. He was basically in the Soviets pocket. He admired Stalin, sought his favor. Right or wrong, he thought the Soviet Union indispensable in the war, crucial to bringing world peace after it, and he wanted the Soviets handled with kid gloves. FDR was star struck. The Russians hardly could have done better if he was a Soviet spy.[3] Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top Page Up Full Thread Page Down Bottom/Latest Begin Trace Mode for Comment # 3.

Had he lived long enough, McCarthy would have called for Frank the Cripple to be wheeled in front of a firing squad for his treason.
