Operation Paperclip: The Secret Intelligence Program That Brought Nazi Scientists to America
The explosive story of America's secret post-WWII science programs, from the author of the New York Times bestseller Area 51. In the chaos following World War II, the U.S. government faced many difficult decisions, including what to do with the Third Reich's scientific minds. These were the brains behind the Nazis' once-indomitable war machine. So began Operation Paperclip, a decades-long, covert project to bring Hitler's scientists and their families to the United States. Many of these men were accused of war crimes, and others had stood trial at Nuremberg; one was convicted of mass murder and slavery. They were also directly responsible for major advances in rocketry, medical treatments, and the U.S. space program. Was Operation Paperclip a moral outrage, or did it help America win the Cold War? Drawing on exclusive interviews with dozens of Paperclip family members, colleagues, and interrogators, and with access to German archival documents (including previously unseen papers made available by direct descendants of the Third Reich's ranking members), files obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, and dossiers discovered in government archives and at Harvard University, Annie Jacobsen follows more than a dozen German scientists through their postwar lives and into a startling, complex, nefarious, and jealously guarded government secret of the twentieth century. In this definitive, controversial look at one of America's most strategic, and disturbing, government programs, Jacobsen shows just how dark government can get in the name of national security.- Shop: buecher

Uranprojekt: The History and Legacy of Nazi Germany's Nuclear Weapons Program During World War II , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 90min
What if the enemy should get the atomic bomb before we did! We could not run the mortal risk of being outstripped in this awful sphere. (Winston Churchill)Both the Western Allies and the Soviets knew of Adolf Hitler's V-2 rocket program, the forerunner of ballistic missiles and the space race. Each recognized the immense strategic value of these technologies and wished to secure their benefits for themselves. As the Soviets contemplated additional expansion following the "Great Patriotic War" and the US military came to understand the putative allies of today would emerge as the enemies of tomorrow, the men possessing knowledge of the V-2 rockets and other Third Reich military technology programs became seen as crucial pieces in the incipient NATO versus Warsaw Pact standoff.The result was the American-led "Operation Paperclip" on the Western side, which resulted in German scientists putting their expertise at the disposal of the US and other NATO members. Operation Paperclip aimed not only to obtain the benefits of German scientific advances for the United States but also to deny them to the potentially hostile Soviets, as General Leslie Groves enunciated: "Heisenberg was one of the world's leading physicists, and, at the time of the German break-up, he was worth more to us than ten divisions of Germans. Had he fallen into the Russian hands, he would have proven invaluable to them" (Naimark, 1995, 207).But Heisenberg was important not simply for being a physicist - he was one of the principal men in charge of Nazi Germany's nuclear weapons research.Tens of millions died during World War II as the warring powers raced to create the best fighter planes, tanks, and guns, and eventually that race extended to bombs which carried enough power to destroy civilization itself. While the war raged in Europe and the Pacific, a dream team of Nobel Laureates was working on the Manhattan Project, a program kept so secret that Vice ungekürzt. Language: English.

American Mind Control: MK ULTRA, Hörbuch, Digital, 64min
At the end of the Second World War the United States government (under Operation Paperclip) extracted Nazi scientists from Germany. Very quickly top secret scientific testing started to happen all across America. Project MK ULTRA was formed by the CIA. The US government proceeded to drug, rape, torture, and murder innocent citizens on a massive scale that spanned decades. Chemicals, hypnosis, sensory deprivation, isolation, verbal and sexual abuse, and death were just a means to their end game. Once discovered by the public the project was supposedly closed down, but not before the CIA destroyed thousands of documents to hide their illegal activity. Ordinary people were experimented on like lab rats by their own government. Assassinations, conspiracies, cover-ups, manipulation of Hollywood, and mind control. This is the story of a very black, covert government project that continues to this day. Language: English. Narrator: Bill Pitt, Paul Hughes, John Roberson.

Alien Contact: NASA Exposed, Hörbuch, Digital, 52min
For thousands of years mankind advanced slowly, then suddenly we took to the skies, created machines to think for us, and devised weapons of mass destruction, dwarfing the industrial revolution with the technological revolution. The scientific advancements we now consider parts of our everyday lives surged forward with one peculiar event - global sightings of UFOs. In 1936 a UFO crashed in the Black Forest of Germany. Hitler ordered a full scale investigation, and the Nazis began reverse engineering the technology. Combined with occult influences and an early concept of quantum physics, they developed the V2 rocket and countless other devices that seemingly came out of nowhere. At the war's end, Operation Paperclip brought over 1,500 scientists, technicians, and engineers from Nazi Germany and other countries to develop what we now call the "space program." Now, decades later, hundreds of whistle-blowers (including astronauts) claim that NASA not only knows about alien visitations but that they are in contact with extraterrestrials. Investigate the very real government cover-up of the UFO phenomena and the worldwide implications the alien presence has on our planet today. Language: English. Narrator: OH Krill.
