It is also the fifth most popular ebook on the site over the last 30 days, having been accessed nearly 60,000 times over the last month (just behind Romeo and Juliet).

    I was expecting something subtle, some sort of resistance from within type stuff.

    Warehouses, barracks, offices, hotels, and factory buildings are outstanding targets for simple sabotage. They are extremely susceptible to damage, especially by fire.

    Not so much.

        The cure was disabling fascism long enough to let it get conquered by not-fascism.

        But that doesn’t work in the USA because we will get conquered by More-Fascism.

        Why stop fascists when you can enable them worldwide and locally that helps secure funding and work for you?

        Why would you not want to have more threats to encourage congress to fund your habits and slowly erode the rights of the Americans you claim to defend?

        The CIA started hating fascists due to the war effort but learned they had the same idea just different strategies.

          The CIA wasn’t around for WW2, that was the OSS and that agency was dissolved after the war.

          This is honestly the first time I’m wondering why, exactly, they got rid of it.

            While it wasn’t the CIA, the OSS was basically the WW2’s CIA, and then the OSS set up what became the CIA. The OSS also helped Operation Paperclip go into effect, escorting Nazis into the US Government and its allies.
